Wasn't happy with the coloring though so will try again after a while.

But anyway I am having fun coloring.

Are you my Mummy?

Have been enjoying coloring.
Colored up quite a few images and made card with some of them.
Here is one made with scrappersdelight image for August FB  challenge
The mummy reminded me of Dr. Who episode . I love Dr. Who and of course had to  use the sentiment "Are you My Mummy?" :)
Sentiment was made using photoshop

The background paper is also made using photoshop. Image colored using copics. A bit of cheesecloth  added and the paper distressed.

Cute as a button FB Challenge

Made a card for Cute as a Button FB Challenge.
Took out the cricut explore and cut out the basic card shape.
Yeah this month I have used  3 machines - the silhouette , cricut and scan N cut. Only the knk sleeps.

The image a freebie if you follow the rules is colored with copics.
The 2 sentiment stamps are from 3 birds and the shells are Anna Griffin Stamps. Pched out some flowers and added them in with some pearls and rhinestones.
The shape is a cricut image. I could have welded it but it would have been too big to cut out if I wanted to fit the mermaid in. So I cut them out and created a hinge to attach them. They are easily hidden with the other layers placed over them.

Hello Cupcake - Lily of the Valley

There is a coloring party at kit and clowder facebook group. Lily of the valley has given a freebie Hello Cupcake which you can get by joining  kit and clowder facebook group from here.

I have colored it using copics. The die cut never enough cake is a cricut die cut from once upon a princess cartridge. I have cut that using cricut explore through cricut design space. Sized it about 3" or so. It has been such a long time since I last used the explore. Have to use it more.

The pattern paper is DCWV sweet treats. 

After coloring the picture  I realized I had made an error in the hat ribbon. So tried fixing it using the colorless blender . Thankfully the brown color wasn't dark enough and was easy to fix . But not so the socks and shoes. As it is red didn't want to touch it. Maybe have to color once more again.

Birthday Card

Made a birthday card for my son's friend using a free coloring page image as his friend likes cars very much and his favorite color is blue.

Colored using copics. The sentiment die is tattered lace.

Scapper's Delight August FB Challenge

Made another card and this time for the Scrapper's Delight Facebook Challenge for August.

The digi image is colored using copics and is a freebie if you join the group and play in the challenge and follow the rules.

The greeting sentiment is Anna Griffin. The sentiment is nestled inside a square cardstock which has been cut diagonally ( this word brings me harry potter to mind) leaving a bit of gap. That way you can roll the paper up leaving the center open and stamp something in the middle . I cut a paper doily up and colored it using glimmer mist to bring out the orange from the image onto the card. I also used the same glimmer mist to scruff up the pink patterned cardstock after distressing it .

The 2 white flowers are tattered lace flower shop dies.

I also added a bit of lace.

DS4J August FB challenge

I am enjoying coloring now and I am ok if the colors go out of the line and I mess up a little.
So doing a little bit of crafting nowadays. Not my usual pace but I am happy.
Made this card for DigiStamps4Joy facebook challenge - august

The word die is tattered lace. The shape is cut using one of the  spellbinders grand nestabilities label dies. I threaded the card through the die so that it would cut only one side like a border.
