Hindu Princess

 Hello and a big welcome, thanks for dropping in!  Over at The Paper Shelter Challenge we have a new challenge and the theme this week is we want to see some Bling!


Here is my card:



This image is called Hindu Princess and is available here.  I used the pre-coloured image as I had a bit of a nightmare colouring the plain one in - I had coloured it all in with my Copics then decided to add a bit more shading to her face but my Copic was a bit dry and it made such a mess!  Papers are from my stash from Marianne and the die is from Go Kreate, the bling is from my stash.

Alter It!

 Hello and welcome to my blog - thanks for looking.  I've not been here for a while as I broke my arm so couldn't craft for a while but its on the mend now so here I am!


Over at The Paper Shelter Challenge a new challenge has started and the theme this week is Alter It.  We'd like to see you alter the image in some way.  Here is mine:



I must say this is my favourite Halloween image, its called Spooky! and its available here.  I've coloured it with my Comics and the papers are My Mind's eye.  Not sure if you can see it on the picture but I embossed the black background with a circle embossing folder.  Dies are Spellbinders, Poppy Stamps and Lawn Fawn.  I used twine from my stash to alter the image by cutting the balloon out and placing it outside the mat with the twine.

As usual, there is a fabulous prize on offer for the lucky winner:
