Big Beautiful Buxom Birthday Bash

Hi folks!

It's our birthday over on Sketch Saturday and to celebrate not only do we have a fabulous prize from our regular sponsors, The Craft Barn, but you have 10 extra chances to win. The fabulous DT have agreed to give away their wonderful creations made for this weeks challenge, filled with a combination of stamped images and some surprise goodies. All you need to do to win my over sized crayon box above is to create something following this weeks sketch. Then leave a direct link to your creation here in my comments. Then hop over to my fellow DT blogs and leave comments on all of their creations for more chances to win. Don't forget to add your entry to the Sketch Saturday blog too. This 'party bag candy' will be open until 8am(UK time) on Friday 5th June. You can, of course, enter the Sponsors prize draw in the usual way until midnight on Friday. I hope I haven't lost you all ;) I'm not very good at giving concise instructions.

As mentioned above I decided to make an over sized crayon box, cut using my Cricket Expression, to house my stamped images and other goodies. Primrose, one of my own designs available at The Craft Barn has been coloured using Copics. I also used my Nestabilities, Cuttlebug embossing folder, Sizzlet tag die, hand stitching and buttons from my stash mountain.

I really hope you can join in with this weeks birthday bash and I'm looking forward to visiting your blogs and seeing how you have been inspired by this sketch.

Ciao for now!

Sketch Saturday #34

Hello folks!
It's Saturday......it's Sketch Saturday Challenge time again. Jo has come up with another fun Sketch, all those lovely layers to work with. 'Fun' is what I had in mind when I stamped the gorgeous Primrose. 'Aint she a beauty!! Be sure to check out all the wonderful designs my fellow DT have come up with.
My fun card has been made with DCWV papers and card. I think the eyelets came with my Big Bite. I used the Cuttlebug to emboss the circle layer and my Nestabilities to cut out the circles and scallop circles. I coloured in Primrose (from the Kadoodle range) using Derwent coloursoft pencils for her skin (didn't come out too well in the photos... I think my photography is getting worse not better... help!) I used a mixture of twinkling H2O's and cosmic shimmer watercolours for here attire and I finished off with cream pearlidoodles for the ice-cream.
I hope Primrose brings a little Sunshine to your day.
Please join me in saying farewell to Emma who is stepping down from Sketch Saturday DT. I am sure you will agree that her work is truly inspirational. It was great working with you Emma and I hope that you will have more time in the future to enjoy your craft again. Miss you!
Hugs

** I forgot to add that I die cut the letters using Go Kreate dies, London alphabet. I used some fab stuff. Do you remember 'sticky backed plastic'? Well this is 'sticky back velour' lovely stuff. It's like the cheats version of flocking. (I got mine at Hobbycraft)**
