Hello. I have a new card up on the Jane’s Doodles blog today, featuring the Doodle Flowers and Doodle Flowers II stamp sets. There are so many possibilities with these sets. Today I have gone for a more elegant card with some simple Copic colouring.

Short and sweet from me today,

Hi there,
I have a different kind of project to share with you today. One of my friends recently had a baby and I wanted to make her and her little man Felix, a little something special to go in the nursery. Mama Elephant’s ‘Up and Away’ set came to the rescue again. I cannot get enough of this cute set!

I sponged the clouds by making my own template and using several distress ink colours. The name is made from a really old set of rub-ons that I have had in my stash for at least 10 years. The whole scene was placed in a shadow box that I bought from Ikea (gotta love that shop). I decided to include Mr Squeaky Mouse in the photo, much to the delight of my daughter 🙂

I had so much fun making this, that I think I just may have to make some more!

Hello. I have a new card up on the Jane’s Doodles blog today and also this one from a few weeks ago that I haven’t posted on my blog until now.
The first one uses the Doodle Flowers stamp set. It’s a bit hard to tell, but the inner wings have a lovely shimmer from the Wink of Stella glitter brush pen.

And the second card uses my all time favourite Jane’s Doodle set – Garden Friends and also the Read All About It Stamp set.

I hope you are having a great week,

I thought I would share some more cards which I created a couple of weeks ago now, right at the beginning of the Online Card Class – Copics Markers for Card Makers. I get a bit slack with photographing and then posting on my blog. I’ve really been enjoying the stamp set Up and Away by Mama Elephant. This has been a great set to keep on practising those Copic skills. I like these images as they are not too big as I get a little overwhelmed when I have to colour in large images with Copics.

The first one is my favourite. I like the shading on the bunny and those balloons were fun.

I tried blending into white on the bear’s face and tummy using the colourless blender.

Each of the animals are popped up on foam dimensionals to add some interest.

I actually made 6 of these as gave them as a set to my sister for her birthday last week. I will be making more of these in the future as they are so much fun to make!

Hi there. I have been taking the Online Card Class – Copics Markers for Card Makers and have really been enjoying learning new ways of using my Copics. I don’t have a ton of Copics, but I am trying to get more mileage out of what I have. For this card I was playing around with creating a brick background as taught by Sandy Allnock on Day 9.

I was going to mount the doggie panel onto a white card panel, but it looked too plain so I went to town with Pumice Stone distress ink mixed with water and had some paintbrush flicking fun! I think it adds to the whimsical look of the card.

Well I am off to keep practising with my Copics.

Hi there. I had a fun post up on the Jane’s Doodles blog the other day. I used the Garden Friends stamp set and also a new one to the store, Read All About It.

The apple is nice and shiny thanks to some Glossy Accents.
