Creative Bloggers Bloghop

I was asked by my friend Wendy  to take part in this wonderful bloghop.   I was supposed to post this yesterday on Monday but I am a little late but since I know it is still Monday somewhere I am going to give my self a pat on the back for being on time ;)

What I am working on?

I am currently working on colouring this cute image from Lilli of the Valley for the Spectrum Noir challenge, although by the time I actually get it done I suspect the challenge will be over.


I am yet to master hair with the SN markers obviously.

HOW DOES MY WORK DIFFER FROM OTHERS IN IT"S GENRE?

I wouldn't really say it does much.  

WHY DO I DO WHAT I DO?


Because I enjoy it :)  The scrapbooking and Pocket Scrapping will be something ,y family (hopefully) will look back on but the colouring  of images which eventually end up as cards is purely for stress relief and down time.

How does your creative process work?

I just go with the flow, but I am a ridiculously untidy crafter.  I couldn't craft tidily if my life depended on it.  I grab and go and leave it all until I have no room to make a card then I have a massive tidy up and think about posting a scrapspace video to youtube because my last one was ages ago and is now out of date

And now my nominations are the following lovely ladies who are all members of the Southern Girls DT - because I love my DT lovelies and self promotion is never wrong xx

Thanks for dropping by and I hope you enjoyed my post all about my crafty obsession.

Texture It Up Baby!!!! SGC Challenge.

This time at Southern Girls we want to see some texture on your projects.  We have 3 wicked sponsors and I got to use a fabulous image from All Dressed Up called Pretty Flower Girl. She is adorbs!

Through my trusty CB I used swiss dots embossing folder, a fancy circle die and a spellbinders sentiment die.  I added some ribbon and a peg which came in last months Noel Mignon kit  and added some sequins and liquid pearls.  The paper is from Fancy Pants.   I coloured her up with my copics which I need to practice with again as I haven't been using them much and it shows!  It is amazing how fast you lose the knack for nice blending.  The inkpad is a cats eye from the Swell collection.

Thanks loads for visiting and be sure to leave a comment so I can return the favour xox

Happy scrapping :)
