Copic Colour Challenge 9

I must be feeling unwell - two cards in a day *Shock Horror!*
Over at the Copic Colour Challenge Blog the colours this week are...

So I dug out these colours, and stared at them for a loooooooooooong time. I took the lids off and drew three lines on a piece of white card and stared again! Then I decided to get one of the Tilda images out that my friend Donna stamped for me for me to have a play with before I bought any more... Sooooo... Here's the card.

Tilda with Ladybug (she is soooooooooooooooo CUTE!!)

Stamped using Memento Ink

Coloured with Copic Ciao's (of course)

First Sugar Bowl Challenge - Challenge 8 - Tiets Sketch

Having bought a few Sugar Nellie stamps over the past few weeks- I thought I'd better ink them up and have a play. I didn't have a lot of inspiration and was directed to the Sugar Bowl Challenge Blog by a friend Donna from Bearly Mine Designs to have a look and maybe have a play - Thanks Donna :o)

So - Having had a look and a browze and finding Challenge 8 - a Sketch by Tiets, I thought I would have a play.

So here she is looking very pink and blue...

Back to card making, Gorjuss girl...

Having had a third cycle of chemotherapy on Monday I really did not think I'd have the time, patience or the stability in my hands to make a card due to the side effects, nevermind having a 7 and a half month old to look after. But I have, and here she is!

Gorjuss Girl - Foxy - from FunkyKits

Coloured using Copics Ciao Pens

Coloured card from my stash

Papers - unknown - have a feeling they may be Papermania or Dovecraft

Paper flowers from Papermania coloured using Copics, brad from stash.
