Male room challenge

Over at The Male Room challenge they are asking for our cards to have trees on them .This is a very old stamp but love how it looks with nightime colours.

I stamped it directly on top of the distress ink background.Then used promarkers for the lights in the windows and then wink of stella on the roof ,trees ,fence and little  bits of the snow.Everyone needs a bit of sparkleSome perfect pearls on the background to mimic falling snow.(It kinda of reminds me of a snow globe :) and to finish it I added a popped up sentiment.

Thanks for looking

Color Throwdown Challenge

I was so chuffeed to see my card as the featured stamper on the Colored Throwdown Challenge last week ...I ddi a happy dance ! :)

I was sent what this weeks colour challenge was , which were the colours red,blue and yellow.I quickly trolled through some stamps as initially I thought a childrens card then came across these Clearly Besotted love birds/parrots and thought that they would make a great anniversary card or even an engagements card! I coloued them in with my promarkers and even coloured the little leave with blue and yellow to make it green :) and then fussy cutted them out - don't look too close please!Then added some foam dotsto pop them up on the heart and finished with one of the sentiments from the set .

I would never have thought of doing hese colours but love it ,so thank you Color Throwdown  for pushing me out of my comfort zone !

Thamk you for looking

 P.s and once I have worked it out I will also be proud to add their banner to my side bar...any suggestions on how I do this gratefully received ! :) x
