Digitally Sweet # 124 - Anything but a Card or Layout

Hi, this week the challenge at Digitally Sweet is "Anything but a Card or Layout". I started off with the idea of a giftbag but it all went horribly wrong so I made a bookmark instead! We are sponsored by Lacy Sunshine and I chose Water Lily Enchantress to work with.
I started off by colouring her with Spectrum Noir pencils but the colours seemed to come out very pale and when I scanned it back in was much too wishy washy. I think I must be doing something wrong with them so will have to find some tutorials and practice. So I recoloured her by going over my original colouring with Promarkers - much brighter! The background and other elements are from various Daisytrail kits and as usual I used Craft Artist 2 to create it.

Digitally Sweet Challenge# 121 - Favourite Shape

Hi and welcome to a new year and a new challenge on Digitally Sweet. This week the challenge is "My Favourite Shape" and we are sponsored once again by Stitchy Bear. I have used the Calla Lily set which included papers and the lovely digi stamp.

 
 I really didn't need to do much to create a pretty page.I used a circle as my  shape and used one of the papers as a backing for the digistamp. I was going to paper piece or colour but then decided to just change the line colour and add a shadow to it. Another of the papers for the background and a couple of embellishments and my card was finished. As ever I used Craft Artist 2 to create the card and the embelishments were from some Daisy Trail kits.Do head over to the challenge blog to see what shapes the rest of the team have used.

The challenge over at Digitally Sweet this week is "Steampunk"!  Once again Lunagirl has sponsored us and provided some lovely images.
 
 I have eventually produced a card after a few false starts! This was SO out of my comfort zone! I'm afraid I don't really understanf Steampunk at all - it must be my age (lol!) As usual I created it in Craft Artist 2 using some Daisytrail steampunk digikits.

Digitally Sweet Challenge #102 - For the Guys

Well here we are at Friday again - these weeks are really going fast! A new challenge at Digitally Sweet and it's "For the Guys" ! The sponsor is Stitchy Bear who supplied this great image. I decided to leave it uncoloured. It also reminded me of a movie poster so I went with that theme.

 
 The elements used are from the Daisytrail "At the Movies" digikit and as (almost) always it was created in Craft Artist 2.

Digitally Sweet #94 - Inspired by a Favourite Book

Hi and welcome to another challenge at Digitally Sweet where this week the challenge is "Inspired by a Favourite Book" The sponsor is Bugaboo and I have used Fun Flowers. Now when I originally chose this image I had a book in mind , but after a few sleeps and a holiday I couldn't remember what it was!

 

 Fortunately I have just started reading The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton and the image suited it perfectly with the addition of some elements from a couple of Daisy Trail kits. As usual I created it in Craft Artist 2. 

After I had blogged my last post I noticed that I have some new followers, sorry I didn't notice earlier -so welcome- 
and I hope you enjoy reading my posts and maybe getting a bit of inspiration as well.

Leaving Card

I was asked by OH to make another personalised leaving card! I think making this one for him  has set a precedent! It had to have a car on it again and a reference to Kidderminster!

So Craft Artist to the rescue again! This time I printed a map with Kidderminster on, scanned it and took it into Craft Artist. The car and arrow were from Daisy Trail digikits. I added a metal effect to the arrow and printed the page out. Then matted it onto red cardstock. The car was fussy cut and mounted with foam pads and the sentiment was a Sizzix alphabet.

Digitally Sweet #71 - Polly Poinsettia

Hello and welcome to another week at Digitally Sweet. Gosh this month seems to be flying by!The sponsor this week is Lacy Sunshine Stamps. I think I was still in Christmas mode when I picked this image called Polly Poinsettia  but never mind - it just means I'm ahead on this year's cards!


 

 I created this card front as usual in Craft Artist and used a kit from Daisy Trail called Paper Poinsettia.

Last week we had a new DT member Annie join us but I didn't welcome her to the team then as I schedule these posts- otherwise they would never go up at the right time!! So I'd like to give a big welcome to Annie now. Why not pop over and visit her blog where she has lots of great things to see.

Digitally Sweet # 69

Welcome to this week's challenge at Digitally Sweet. The theme for the whole of January is "Anything Goes" and this week the sponsor is Digi Darla Designs . I have used Cupcake Annie and used a Christmas present to colour her in. My son got me a graphics tablet so this was my first attempt at using it. Far from perfect I know but had fun doing it.

 

I also used elements from a Daisy Trail kit called Afternoon Tea. I'm sorry I was a bit late commenting on all your lovley entries last week but New Year and a Birthday seemed to get in the way!

 I'm sorry but if you are in" Google +" I am unable to leave a comment, much as I want to,  as I am not a member!

Digitally Sweet #63 and Santa

Welcome to another challenge at Digitally Sweet and this week the theme is everyone's favourite "Anything Goes". Once again we are sponsored by Lacy Sunshine Stamps

 
 I used"Santa Spreading Joy" and coloured him with promarkers. Then I scanned him and took him back into Craft Artist, cut him out digitally and added him to a card made with a Daisy Trail kit called Festive Christmas. Some snow was then liberally dusted over it using a snow brush in Craft Artist. Poor Santa looks a bit washed out here but IRL he's quite bright!

Digitally Sweet Challenge #49 = Numbers Galore

This week the challenge at Digitally Sweet is " Numbers Galore" and we are sponsored by


••Template Dreams


I picked the  "Teacher Appreciation" kit and originally started to make a scrapbook page for my grandson's first day at school. But changed it to a card as I do not like posting photos of the children on the web, and didn't want to just leave a gap where the photo should have been.

 
I thought it would be nice to send a card instead to wish his  little brother good luck when he moves up from preschool to primary . I'll have to hold onto it for a while though as he's only just started preschool!! As well as the Template Dreams kit I used some elements from some digikits I already had.
