Crafting for craftings sake!

I haven't crafted just for the sake of crafting & last night I coloured some images & today I made cards for 2 of the images. The first I can post now & this is it!

I used a Sassy Cheryl image & it is called "Share the love", isn't she just so cute!                                                          I first seen this digital image on a card by Jackie Mooney, for those who don't know, Jackie Mooney holds monthly card making workshops & I have been attending these for the past 3 years.
Jackie is also my fellow Mami Doodles DT member & is on the Sassy Cheryl DT too.
 Anyhow on to some details about my card!
 I used 2 different brown cards, one is a leather effect & the other is Core'dinations Chocolate box. The blue card is from my stash as is the brown organza ribbon & pearls & gems!
 The image is coloured using ProMarkers & these are the ProMarker Combo's I used! 

Skin - Blush & Soft Peach

Hair - Raw Sienna, Mustard & Buttercup

Dress, Hat, Shoes & Socks - Turquoise, Duck Egg & Cool Aqua

- Burnt Umber, Caramel & Tan

Teddy - Tan, Vanilla & Ivory.

I am entering this card into the challenge over on Sassy Cheryls blog where the theme this week is

 Brown & Light Blue!

Mami Doodles Challenge 40 - Altered Art/Home Decor.

The challenge over on Mami Doodles which started yesterday is Altered Art/ Home Decor & because it is the holiday season this challenge will run for 4 weeks so gives plenty of time to get some creating done. The prize for this challenge is the latest 3 Mami Doodles images released - Peter and the Pudding, Bea the Butterfly & Baby's First Christmas plus you will get to choose another of Elisa's gorgeous digi's. To take part all you have to do is link your Altered Art/ Home Decor project on the Mami Doodles blog. You don't have to use a Mami Doodles image but if you do (including freebies) you will be entered twice. You have until midday on the 12th of January 2012 to join in. Here is my DT project.

I made a door plaque for my daughter to put in her Christmas stocking. I used one of the 8 images you get when you buy Ligia & I gave Ligia a new hair do so that she looks like my daughter. The layers for the plaque were cut using my eCraft, Ligia was coloured using ProMarkers, the gem swirls were added using my I-Rock tool, flowers are from my stash & I used 3 different embossing folders. Hope to see some gorgeous creations for the challenge. Pam x

Commissioned Shoe card.

I love this digital stamp from Sketching Stamper. It was my very first digital stamp & I find I come back to it a lot. The leaf flourishes were cut using my eCraft & the purple card was glittered using Crafters Companion glitter spray, I love this stuff, it comes in 4 colours - Gold, Silver, Iridescent & Multi.

The sentiment is computer generated but I think it says it all!

Commissioned Photo cards.

Here are 2 cards that were commissioned by my BIL's mother. She always gets photo cards done & with grand children so cute I can see why!

I cut the frame for this using my eCraft & then glittered it using stickles.

I thought this photo was just so cute.

I added glossy accents as water splashes. The frame was again cut using my eCraft.
