2 quick cards


The Sugar Bowl Challenge

The two images I have used today have been coloured for a week or so, and not having much time this week I decided to search through some challenge sites to see if they would fit anywhere. The first one can of course be used for the The Sugar Bowl Challenge, which is a fabulous sketch and the you also have to include Distressing.



Raven is such a cute image from Sugar Nellie, and of course I had to colour her up as soon as I got her, but couldn't find the time to make her into a card. She has been coloured with Distress Inks, and the delish papers are a download, I have distressed the edges with the Tim Holtzs Distressing tool then edged them with Frayed Burlap DI.





Moving along with the Times have a fabulous sketch you must also use a Digi Image, and Cute Card Thursday are looking for creations with a fairy image, so I think this card meets both criteria.



This is a gorgeous image from the fantastically talented MO, I just adore all her images they are just so lifelike. I have kept this card quite plain as the image says it all, so no embellies (don't know how I managed that!). It has been coloured with Copics with Glamour Dust and Liquid Pearls added liberally. The papers are by Kaisercraft.




Thanks for looking
Hugs
