Vintage fun

Here's a card I made for Mad for Markers. I decided to do a vintage card using my distress inks around the outside and colouring image with copics in soft pinks. For her voil overlay I have used white Perfect Pearl, which when overlayed over a light coloured copic seems to really shimmer and look white... although you cant even notice through my picture! I love how this card turned out.

Have a great weekend and see you next week!

Devilish Donna



Spent all day in a meeting today and couldn't wait to have a bit of "me" time in the craft room! I wanted to colour in one of the images I got from Kenny K's Gothic Angelz.
Here's what I made the card for
Kenny K's - On the dark side (using a Gothic Angel.. figure she's dark enough!!)
Pixie Cottage - followed their sketch and added in blue.
Have a great week

Boarder Control!!!

Who in NZ watches Boarder Control? The girls and I watch it every Monday and see all those packages that get xrayed and if it looks suspect then gets opened for inspection!!
Well, my package arrived today from Wild Orchid crafts.... and guess what... it had a strip across it with "MAF- Officially opened by MAF biosecurity New Zealand"! I was so excited, I had to show the girls and explain to them that this is what happens to all those packages on TV! Even they were impressed that paper flowers and stick on pearls had been looked at!
I know... I need to get a life!... but do you like my new stash????

LOL)
Anyway, head over to our challenge blog and see the amazing notebooks that have been done by the rest of the DT.
