Good Evening,

I must confess I am late posting this, the reason being, I worked my first full week this week after returning to work. I came home this evening, laid on the bed and fell asleep.

Now I'm awake I would like to share my DT card for the new challenge starting over at

I printed off some papers from Raspberry Road which I distressed (must say I'm loving my new tool) and inked then added a little frantage.

Have a great evening and lovely weekend.

Good Evening,

Good news about my fracture clinic appointment. I have an undisplaced fracture of the radial head which I need no treatment for but need to do some prescribed exercises to get the full use bak, wearing the sling only when needed.

So I've had a little play with an image from this weeks sponsor at 

Friday Sketch Challenge

Milk Coffee

I have paper pieced her dress with the same paper I used for the background, Girls bear too - Nit Wits

The rest of the image was coloured using markers,chalks,glossy accents & a clear star gelly roll pen.

The sentiment is a stamp from LOTV & the flowers are punched, layered up and cosmic shimmer centers, the leaves are die cuts.

Good Evening,

I am here this evening with my DT card for the new challenge starting over at 

Friday Sketch Challenge

This weeks sketch has been designed by the lovely Rachael

Lots of scope with this one don't you think.

Fitztown are offering one lucky winner 3 digital images of their choice!

The DT were given a digi to use from Fitztown, I was given  Fae 33

I decided to paper piece the dress and hat and colour the rest of the image with markers. 

The dress was printed onto patterned paper 3 times and was layered up using pinflair.

The papers are  -  My Mind's Eye - Bloom

Glamour dust was added to the wings of Fae.

Flowers are a mixture of punches, dies & cut files.

The sentiment was computer generated.

Hop on over to the main challenge blog for more samples of images from Fitztown.

I would like to thank you all for your kind comments on my last post.

Have a good weekend
