Digital Delights - Bumble Bee Larry

Hi Everybody

It's time for more new creations from the team at at Digital Delights!

As it is coming up to Valentine's Day, I decided to have two little bumble bees, but I really could not colour one of them differently, but just image that one is a little girlie bee!

I have coloured with copics, and highlighted the edges of the wings and the little feelers on the top of their heads with gold Stickles.  My papers are from Nitwits (I just love their papers).  I have edged the gold star paper with Distres Inks in Scattered Straw and Walnut.  I have used a Martha Stewart punch to create a flowery border, and added some black lace.  The two heart circular pieces are Nesties.  The sentiment is computer generated.

Incy Wincy and some news ....

Good morning everybody

Aarrgh! I hear you say - Monday morning ........ !!

Well, it is also time for the next Incy Wincy challenge, and news is that I have been asked to join the team. I am so pleased to join this team, and I think the work they do with the Aspire to Thrive Charity is so commendable.

The challenge this week is Bears, Bears, Bears all the way, and is sponsored by Aspire to Thrive, with $10 to spend in the store, so I have used Baby Bear with Bottle.   You will find lots of fabby images in the shop.  It just had to be a boy because his pants were not frilly!

I have coloured by Bear with Copics, and added some glossy accents to his bottle to give it some shine. The papers are from Nitwit Designs, the sentiment is LOTC, and some buttons from stash,

Wow - I am the Guest Designer for January

at Incy Wincy Designs, and this is my first post for them.

The Challenge is inviting you to GO DOTTY, and I have certainly done that.  In fact I am seeing spots before the eyes!  Incy Wincy is sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps, who provided the image for this card.  They  make some fabby digital images, and there is usually a freebie there every Friday as well.  I have reversed the image and printed it twice. 

My papers are from Nitwit Collections - Hooligans - which I thought really suits this image.  All the colouring is Copics, and I have added lots of Glossy Accents to the spots and bows to make them pop.  The sentiment is computer generated, and the ribbon is from stash.

Please pop along to the Incy Wincy Challenge blog to have a look at all the lovely creations from the team.

Now, I am relying on Mr Google to do his bit, as I will be in hospital on Monday having x-ray guided injections into my hands for my arthiritis when this goes live, so wish me luck!  Thank goodness they are putting me out .....

Tea or Coffee anyone?

This week at the One Stop Craft Challenge our theme is Tea or Coffee.  For me it depends on the time of the day, and also whether I want a really strong dose of coffee, in which case it is an expresso or two,  or an instantly refeshing cup of Twinnings Lady Grey or Afternoon Tea!  In this case it is tea.  We are sponsored today by Dew Drop Craftz.  Do pop along to see the what the rest of the team have been up to.

I think for those looking at my blog recently might think I have shares in Lili of the Valley - because this is another image of theirs.  Such a pretty one with an old-fashioned feel.  I have coloured with Copics, and the teapot has been given a coat of Glossy Accents with a dash of stickles on the icing on the cupcake and the edge of the table cloth.  The papers are the new Curio from Basic Grey, which are rather yummy.  The sentiment is LOTV as well.  Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.
