Dotties World Challenge Card

This weeks challenge over at Dotties World is a fab sketch and seeings as I'm in Digi mode at the moment, thought I'd try out one of the downloads that I haven't used before. I love this little scene and used it to make this card for one of my Mothers Day Cards. Dottie has been coloured with Copics. The Die Cuts are made on my Cricut using George and Basic Shapes. The swirl border is a velvet ribbon. Doubt many of us will be getting our hands dirty on sunday (heres hoping)!!!!, but Dottie must be a modern kinda girl and doesn't mind getting her hands dirty........

Dotties World - Colour Me Silly

Haven't crafted since last week and itching to get back to it so neglected the chores this morning! Its quite sunny here but cold so what better than to spend a few hours crafting before doing the school runs. This weeks theme over at Dotties World is "Colour Me Silly". I've used papers from DCWV and coloured with Dottie with Sakura Pens and Stickles. Added a sentiment and lots of different Prima Flowers and Brads. I love Dottie and think I'll be sending this to my neighbours daughter who will be 3 tomorrow.
Daniel has had a few more cards in the post and would like to say THANKYOU to Joy (craftjoy), Jason (USA) and the stickers and images, TerrieB, The Parson Family (USA), Wendy (craftybutterfly) and Christine Riley (USA). More fantastic cards to put on show, but running out of space and the cats keep knocking them down (lol).

Dinkie Dots & Funky Fairy Challenges

Seeings as I seem to be into my Dotties at the moment, I could not help but enter this weeks challenge at Dotties World. This weeks theme is "Black, White and a splash of Colour". I chose pink as I love the backing paper, its a Funky Fairy Download and I think it blends so well on many cards. I printed off Naughty Dottie which you can purchase HERE and coloured in parts with Copics. This card also fits in with The Funky Fairy challenge which again is Black, White and 1 Colour. Other products used were Liquid Pearls, BG Swirl Stamp, SU Sentiment and Punches and Prima Flowers and Black Cardstock. Cant wait to see what next weeks challenges are!!!!

My 1st Dottie/Mojo Monday

Today I decided to download some of the Dottie sets from Charmed Cards and Crafts. I got Christmas and Dress Up Dottie. I am a MAC user so if anyone out there could give me some advice or resizing and printing a better image I would be truly grateful. Spent a good few hours mucking around but this image is still oversized despite the small measurements I put in!!! I used the sketch from this weeks Mojo Monday. The image has been coloured with Copics and all the papers are from my Cosmo Cricket TSV Which I purchased a few weeks ago. The Sentiment and Circles I cut with my SU punches. I just love these punches, they are great and come in various sizes. The flowers in the top corner are die cut. I used 2 different colours folded the petals over on the top layer and added Gold Liquid Pearls to the Centes. Still trying to work on getting a better piccie. I took this under a daylight bulb but still doesn't look true to colour. I do think a decent photo makes all the difference when posting. Will keep trying, practice makes perfect, ot so they say (lol).
