Cupcake Colour Combo

This week on the Cupcake Craft blog we have a colour combo for you and it is orange,green,yellow and white and I have to admit I was a bit worried because they are not colours I would normally use.

But the sponsor this week is Pink Gem Designs and you win 4 digi designs of your choice, I spotted this lovely dragon called Denzil in the Pink Gem online shop and thought I could use them colours with him.

I loved working with this cute design and have coloured it with copics the greens are Yg17, Yg13, Yg11 and the creamy bits on him are E50, E51, E53. I have given him a orange rose and Decorated around the card with some sizzix stars.
Thank you for looking

Allsorts Challenge 'Things with wings'

It is my last week being guest designer on Allsorts and representing Sir Stampalot and the theme this week is

'Things with wings'.

I have so enjoyed taking part in the challenges and working with the talented team so thank you for having me.

For my card I have used a Penny Black stamp and used punches to make the leaves and flowers. I really enjoyed making this card because it is a bit different for me.

Bye for now

Luka

Are you having problems commenting, blogger just will not let me it is very frustrating because I am away next week and really wanted to be up to date with my commenting as part of the design teams I am on.

It also means I cannot comment on anyones that I normally visit but I am still looking.

Just thought I would put this card that I made using Luka on my blog today, Luka is a La La Land stamp and was lovely to colour. I have gone very simple with the design and used copics to colour him in with.

The copic colours are:

Face E000 E00 E11 R20

Hair Y000 Y21 Y23 Yr23

Tie B93 B95 B97

Shirt B0000 B000 B00

Suit C9 C7 C5 C3 C1



Cupcake Bookworm

This week at Cupcake the Challenge is 'Bookworm' so we would like to see your cards or bookmarks with books or a book related theme on them.

The prize this week is £10.00 to spend at Craft Emma's store and you still have a change to win the monthly prize of £15.00 to spend at Crafts U Love 

For my poject I have used a stamp that I have had for ages but it fitted the theme well and I have covered a little notebook that I got cheap and have made it into a little book for my Daughter Tianna. Tianna is going to use the book to keep a note of all the books she reads, my daughter is a real bookworm and can read a book very quickly so I am always keeping my eye out for books in shops or car boot sales to get her.
