Clean and simple sketches

So it's been a while but life's been a little busy lately. We've moved house and it's taken a while but I finally feel like my stuff is organised and I'm ready to roll again. Besides it's winter here and what else is there to do when it's miserable outside?

I stumbled upon an awesome sketch site the other day. So here 's what I've been up to...

So I've decided a back to basics approach is best right for me right now.  I'm loving the clean designs and simplicity of stamping and beautiful papers, so I've abandoned colouring for now and focused on clean and simple!

Christmas Fairy

Two days in a row, this must be some kind of record!  This card is for Cute Card Thursday. They have a great sketch challenge and I'd started colouring a digital image I had on hand. It's called Poppy Fairy but I can't for the life of me remember where I got it from. The colours give it a bit of a Christmas feel to it so I used some of my My Minds Eye Christmas papers.


Supplies:
Stamps - Digital Poppy Fairy
Copics: G21 YG63, YG67, R35, R37, RV29, E19, E000, E11, E31, E50, E25
Papers: My Minds Eye Lost & Found Christmas
Accessories: SU Ribbon coloured with G21, antique brads

It's Cup Day here in Melbourne and it's nearly time for the big race, so if you're in this part of the world, hope you're making the most of your day off.  If you're not, hope you're enjoying your day anyway!

Has it really been that long?

Geez, time flies doesn't it. I knew it had been a while but I didn't realise it had been that long. Life has been busy busy in the Thomas household and there hasn't been much time for cards. Don't get me wrong, there has been plenty of time for buying new stamps, I just haven't done much with them LOL.  We've also bought a new house and are in the process of selling our own, so I swing between excitement and panic! 


It's Cup weekend here in Melbourne so this weekend I made some time for cards and I thought I'd share them. The first is a digital image from Make it Crafty which I used for this weeks Mojo Monday, the second is my new Gorjuss Girls stamps.



Supplies:
Stamps: Make it Crafty Chantelle at the Races, PTI mini messages
Copics: V91, 95, 99, Y38,35, C7, 5, 3, E50, 31, 0000, 11, B05
Kaiser papers, SU Elegant Eggplant card stock, stick on bling, SU silver chord.

Flying Above it All


Love my Gorjuss girls and I just got three new ones so I just had to play.  I've used my new fav blonde hair combo of E31, E50, and E25. The other colours are C1,3,5,7, R85,83,81 and E00,000, R20 for her skin.

If all this rain keeps up there might be a few more cards to show off this week!
enjoy the rest of your day
