Some Odd Girl - Beach Mae - Birthday Card

Hi Hi! 
I have a bright, sunshine-y card to share today, which is to help me out of the winter funk. Today is Winter Solstice and it's extremely windy, and cold here. Anyway, summer dreaming with this card
I started with the digital stamp - Beach Mae from Some Odd Girl (she looks to be retired!) and coloured her up using my spectrum noir and copic markers. I then fussy cut her out, and set her aside, so I could make the card.
I used patterned papers from Lawn Fawn, Fancy Pants and a non-branded paper pad
I added some paper and resin flowers, and some polka dots.
The sentiment is from My Favourite Things, and Simon Says Stamp

MFT Stamps - Happy Birthday Card

Hello again 
I've got another card to share today. 
I used a cute My Favourite Things Tutu image, coloured up with my copic markers. I used patterned papers from Echo Park and Amy Tangerine, and layered them up with a doily, some ribbon and a trio of flowers, and button. I love this adorable little tutu image, and I'm surprised it's taken me so long to colour her up.

The Greeting Farm - Get Well Soon

Hi again! 
This is another card I've made this week 
For this card, I dug out a stamp from The Greeting Farm, which is one of my favourites. I love her beanie and teddy bear. I coloured her up, using both Spectrum Noir and Copic Markers, and fussy cut her out. I used papers from Echo Park and My Minds Eye, and the sentiment is from My Favourite Things. I sat her on a doily, to create a girly feel.

Gorjuss and MFT Stamps - Friendship Card

Hi Hi!
I'm sharing a quick card with you today, one that I made this past weekend 
For this card, I dug out some older stamps, that I haven't coloured in a VERY long time. These are two different Gorjuss Stamps, coloured using my Copic markers, and Spectrum Noir Markers. I layered it up using patterned papers from Simple Stories. I used a doily and the sentiment is from My Favourite Things. I also added some adhesive gel dots.

My Favourite Things - Cards - Penguins in Paradise and Woof You

Hi Guys! I've recently started holidays from work (yesterday was my last day) so I got home and crafted. I made two cards and will share both with you today!
Both, are fun, bright cards, but we will start with this one -
For this card, I used a new My Favourite Things stamp set in my collection, called Penguins in Paradise, stamped and coloured using Copic Markers. I used papers from Lawn Fawn, and a no name brand paper pad I bought at our local cheap shop. I added some doodling, some black resin dots and some bright pink ribbon. 
Here's my second Card - 
I used another MFT Stamp for this one - Woof You and coloured her, using copics, and paper pieced her overalls. I've used patterned papers from My Minds Eye and the same orange (cheap shop purchase) from the previous card. I popped some yellow ribbon on, as well as some paper flowers.

Some Odd Girl - Hipster Kody. World's Greatest Brother

Hi guys! Sorry for the break between postings, it's been a tad crazy here. Anyway, on to my card
For this card, I had Hipster Kody coloured on my desk for about a week, before he ended up on a card. I coloured him using a mix of copic and spectrum noir markers, and fussy cut him out. I used papers from My Minds Eye and doodled around the edges of all of them. I then layered them up, and added a die cut circle, stamped with a sentiment from My Favourite Things. 
I attached Kody using dimensional adhesives and doodled on the lettering, and Kody's eyes.

Some Odd Girl - Mermaid Queen

Hi guys! I'm back again, to share a card I made last night. It is a card, that I currently love, more than most, and I can't see myself parting with it, any time soon! I made it, to showcase on Some Odd Girl's Facebook Group - Paper Piecing Challenge
Here it is -
To start this card, I selected the Mermaid Queen Digital Stamp, from Some Odd Girl, printed her on my copic card stock, and on some copy paper. On the copy paper, once she was printed, I attached some patterned paper, and some vellum, and reprinted her. While that was printing, I started colouring the Mermaid's body, using my copic markers. I let the ink dry a short time on the vellum part of her tail, and while that was drying, coloured her tail in shades of green and blue, to give it a shimmer look on the patterned paper. I colour over a lot of my paper pieced sections, to give more dimension, to make the piece look less "flat". I then fussy cut the tail, and fins and attached them to my coloured mermaid. I did some stippling to give the appearance of sand, and used some stickles on her main tail fin, to give some sparkle!
The papers on this card are a mix of no-name papers and Lawn Fawn, I think her tail is from My Minds Eye (it was a scrap in my scrap draw). I added a sentiment, from another Some Odd Girl stamp set (which appears to be retired now). I added some more sparkle using a trio of silver sequins, and some glitter paper.

MFT Stamps - Pure Innocence - Feline Better

Hi Guys!
I've got a clean and simple card to share today. 
For this card, I used the MFT stamp, Pure Innocence Feline Better stamp, coloured with my copic markers, and paper pieced using some no name brand paper from a local discount store. I layered this little chicka on a die cut tag (from the silhouette), and popped on a die cut silver, glitter border piece, as well as a smattering of silver sequins.
