Happy Birthday Destiny!!!

Hello everyone,

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter break :) I love holidays but the problem is...they go too quick!
My card today is for a special young lady who is turning 18. Destiny is currently doing a photography course and when I stumbled across this digital image, it reminded me so much of her. It even looks a bit like her. So of course I just had to buy this digi stamp called 'Jess taking pictures' from Jess College Fund and I'm also entering her into their challenge. The theme is 'Favourite Embellishment'. 

Embellishment

A decorative detail or feature added to something to make it more attractive.

My favourite embellishment is 'rhinestones'. I love adding sparkle to my cards. I'm really hoping to win because their prize is 36 Copic Sketch Stamping Marker set. Anyway, here is my card.

Hello Spring!

Well it's actually not Spring here in Australia...it's Autumn.
I am entering my first  La La Land Crafts challenge and their theme is 'Spring Easel Card'. I have fallen in love with these beautiful stamps and dies!

So, the last few weeks I've been practicing my copic colouring and finally I can see an improvement...but I still have a long way to go. I've really enjoyed creating a card for this challenge and stretched myself to make a 'three easel card'. I got the idea from Norma @ From My Craft Room then adapted it to my own measurements. I have coloured up the follwing digi stamps

La La Land Crafts Watercan Marci,

Make It Crafty Sheepish Rainbow  (I cropped the sheep and hills)

I'm back!!!!!!

Just a quick update since my last post.
My family and I went down to Sydney for our cousins Quinceanera which was so beautiful.

When we got back home the preparations for my daughter's Quinceanera begun. My cousins party inspired me and motivated me to start organising everything we need. We have almost everything, a lot of which came from overseas, including the dress. Anyway, I have been so busy with these preparations, I'm even making the invitations which is my reason for not having any time to play with my stamps until two days ago.
I made this card for my friend. I felt a little rusty with my copic colouring but was excited to try out the new blending paper I bought from Make it Crafty a few months ago. I really love it.
I've used 'Tilda blowing kisses' stamp and Kaisercraft paper (Lovestruck collection).

I'm entering this card in the following challenge:
Magnolia Down Under Challenges - Flutterbys
