Keeping it simple. Really.

This week threw quite a few things at me - the biggest one being that I'm starting back at working on Monday. As you can imagine I've been mad busy trying to sort things out and amongst other things I have needed to make a sad decision to step down from quite a few design teams. Sundays With Crissy is amongst them so that is my last card for them. :(

The theme for August is KISS - Keep It Simple, Sweetie.
You see, I made an honest, no embellies-involved, one layer card!!

The image is called Forget Me Not and I just printed it on kraft base along with a sentiment by Raindrop Echo Designs. All I really did then was to colour the image with Faber-Castell Polychromos and Caran D'Ache Swisscolor pencils.:)

Thanks a million for popping by and happy crafting!!

Sundays With Crissy - an example of what happens if you get your challenges mixed up and a DT call

The challenge at Sundays With Crissy is Distressing this month. Can you spot ANY distressing on my card? No? That's because there isn't any! I totally got things mixed up! lol

The image is a Cupcake Bliss stamp from Whimsy Stamps. I coloured it with distress inks on watercolour sketching paper. It's quite thin so I tried to keep my colouring drier than usual.

There's also great news - Sundays with Crissy is having a DT call!!

 You can find all the details about the DT call HERE.

Hugs!

Sundays With Crissy - Flowers

This is a pre-cheduled post - I am away traveling for most of the May attending to family issues.

Crissy draws the cutest animals, seriously! Just lookie at that bashful lion!

There's a new challenge at Sundays With Crissy this month - Flowers. Now how easy is that!!!

For my card I am using a brand new image called Courageous Carl. And it's NOT prismacolor pencils on kraft. It's Derwent Inktense pencils on kraft, lol. Just felt like experimenting.

That little tag is a stamp from Make It Crafty, it's really small and perfect for hanging from bows or positioning in embellishment clusters.

The paper is from Cosmo Cricket Material Girl pad and all these ribbons are from Fancy Pants.
