Its been awhile...

Wow, been quite a while since I last posted on my craft blog.

Been very busy with work, going to New York, a craft weekend, more work!

But thought that I would try and start to blog regular again to keep me 

inspired as found I've had a lack of mojo lately!

So here is my first offering for a while, using Cristy Croll (Tiddly Inks) Unicorn

from the Fantasy Friends collection - http://tiddlyinks.com/fantasy-friends/

Using promarkers, I've coloured in my unicorn with the following:

Body - Ivory, Satin and Blush

Mane/Tail - Pastel Blue, Denim and Cornflow

Edge - Almond

Heart I've done by colouring some card with Paper Soft paints in 

Blue and Purple, then stamping a background image it on with 

Distress Ink Peacock Feathers, which I've then used my xcut Heart 

nesting die to cut out the shape and the largest heart to create 

a backing piece in the light blue card.

Pretty butterfly background paper is from Dreamcatcher (by First Edition)

Upwards and Onwards

Almost the last day of October and the spookiest night of the year, however do you know what isn't spooky...

This adorable image by Heidi! As soon as she put it up to use I had to have it and knew the perfect card to use it on! It was like a magically crafting inspiration moment, the image and then the perfect sentiment.

So here is my leaving card for a girl at work who left last week! 

Balloon Birdie is available here:

Oh but we're only 10 days away from my favourite-est night of the year <|:D

Coloured in this cute little guy from Kraftin' Kimmie the other week and got round to putting him on a card at yesterdays crop (see Gorgeous Girl post for details lol).  

I adore this halloween paper, so have left the card quite minimal as every time I went to add a new element a section of the paper I liked got covered.  I did however add 3 doodlebug halloween gems (that I've had YEARS) and the cute little bat which is was popped out of decopage set by Daisy and Dandelion.

Roll on spooky candy night :D
