Fairy Liliana - cute as a button Rubber stamp release

First off a big Whoop whoop for Francessca at cute as a button having a fab week this week lots to celebrate. Her first stamps that have been made into rubber stamps are now available to buy. To help celebrate I made this card 
To make this card I coloured in the image using my spectrum noir pencils water colour pens and alcohol markers. 
I then fussy cut her out. I raised my paper stash and found some lovely paper with flowers on which I also fussy cut out I then mounted this onto some green paper doing the same in the bottom of my easel card I also mounted the sentiment on the same paper and cut out I then added 3 peach flowers and a gem to her lamp. Hope she inspires you :)

January new release day at Cute as a Button

I can believe we are already at the 10th of January times flying by. 
Here is my new release card for January
And here's the how I did her :-
First off I printed out the digi and got out my spectrum noir pencils an water colour pens. 
Here she is all coloured for her skin I used 1,4,7, for her dress 31,33,35,36 same for her shoes and I used brown for her eyes and hair I then went along several outlines with my watercolour pens I then dipped my brush in water and blended in. Next I fussy cut her out . 
I laid out some papers from my stash including one from the faded florals collection I added some lace and then some gems and a sentiment on the easel part of the card.  And I die cut a present using my big shot and the bebunni present die from crafters companion
(Please excuse the mess on my desk) the with love sentiment and tag die I got with a craft magazine last week I cut it from the same backing paper as the card and some white card stock I had I then cut a frame for it to sit on. I hope you feel inspired by this card I had great fun making it.

January Challenge cute as a button blog

It's that time of the month again time for a new challenge in the cute as a button blog here's the link http://cuteasabuttonchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2016/01/welcome-to-challenge-18-love-and-winner.html?spref=fb&m=1
This months theme is love 
Here is my card I used my trusty spectrum noir pencils. Some papers from my stash from a flower and romance pack and some lace and some paper flowers. My other half and me went on our first date on the 11th of Feb we had such a good time we had our second third a fourth date within a week. This year it's 4 years and we will hopefully be getting married later this year. When I looked at this stamp it reminded me of our first date (to think I almost never went!) at the time of our first date I was blonde so this is what I went with when colouring this stamp. I'm so glad I went and I hope you like the card.
