Folds, Sparkles and All That Jazz!

The latest monthly class at Kit & Clowder is a great one for people like me who hate colouring hair, lol.  Alyce has chosen some wonderful images from Moonflower with big hair and lots of folds to practice these techniques.  I am in the marker classes, but chose to use the pencil class image as I preferred this one. 
I decided I wanted to keep this class, so rather than putting her on a card, I fussy-cut her and put her in a simple clip frame.  I had bought a couple of frames, but the edges were too close and cut the image up a little. 

Product list:

• Clip frame
• Lilac paper
• Core'dinations GlitterSilk card
• White Sakura Gelly Roll
• ProMarkers - Burnt Sienna, Cinnamon, Dusky Pink, Satin, Almond, Black, Warm Grey 4 & 5, Indigo, French Navy, Aegean, Cyan, Duck Egg, Cool Aqua, Tea Green, Cocoa, Gold, Sunflower, Canary, Lemon, Mulberry, Magenta, Carmine, Antique Pink, Pastel Pink & Sunkissed Pink

I had to photograph from slightly above so not to get any reflection on the glass. It does make the picture look a little odd to me, but it couldn't be helped!

I am entering my picture into the following challenges:

1. The Ribbon Girl - July Use Any Image
2. Colour Crazy - wk29 AG
3. Creative Fingers - #134 AG
4. Lemon Shortbread - #46 AG
5. Polkadoodles - wk28 AG

February Challenge at Crafting With An Attitude

This month at Crafting With An Attitude we have the wonderful Moonflower Digistamps sponsoring. I haven't used any of these images before so it was great to get one to play with.

I chose Minako the Oriental Maiden as I really love this style and the cherry blossoms are one of my favorite flowers. It's been a while since I made a stepper card and as I have a pack of HunkyDory ones I decided to use one of the awesome kits I have too, as the embellishments and designs are so perfect for this image. 

Products I have used for this card:

• HunkDory Stepper card blank, 'Eastern Promise' card and embellishments
• Pearls from my stash
• ProMarkers - Apricot, Saffron, Blush, Satin, Black, Warm Grey 1, 2 4, & 5, Cool Grey 1, 4 & 5, Antique Pink, Pastel Pink, Soft Lime, Cocoa, Pine, Forest, Amethyst, Orchid, Blossom, French Navy, Aegean, Sky Blue & Cardinal
