Women are from Venus......

Hi Karleigh Sue Fans

 

 

Today I am sharing a journal page using the fun and quirky Terrestrial digi available in store!!

You have probably noticed I love working in my journals!

 

As soon as I saw this digi I knew I wanted to use the "Women are from Venus" saying - love to make fun pages with a bit of humour!

 

I used a variety of mediums on the background - paint, serviette pieces, builders mesh, texture paste, stencil, posca pen and some puff paint to make the "smoke" coming from her spaceship LOL!

I stamped some large letters on paper, cut out and added a "border" with sharpie texta and adhered to the page.

 

Image was printed on card and coloured with pastel pencils - I gave her a bit of a "green" tinge so she looked out of this world!!

 

Hope you can find some inspiration from my creation today!

Doing the Downward Dog......

Hi Karleigh Sue Fans!

 

Today I am sharing another of my journal pages using one of the images available in the January Colour Club Pack - if you haven't seen this set you must have a look - a great lot of images for a super great price! 

 

 

CLICK HERE to be taken to the store - and remember there were new releases recently so make sure you have a look at them too!

 

 

You might remember my journal page using one of the new release images where I used my sewing machine and some lace and ribbon on the page well this page is the BACK of that other page.

Normally I would cover the stitching with book pages or collage images so I had a flat surface to work on BUT this time I decided why not take advantage of the "decoration" already on the page and allow it to show through!

All I did was adhere some sheer serviettes all over the page in soft pinks which allowed the sewing to still be visible - I love the effect - LOL sheer like her underwear?????

 

 

When I saw this image I automatically thought of yoga and the downward dog pose - of course it's not exactly like that pose but that's what it made me think of so I added the word "RELAX" and also the letters going around the coloured image!

 

A bit of fun!! Hope you like it!

Cupid

Hi all 

 Jane here with a  little bit of  inspiration  for you all

 for the Karleigh Sue Inspiration team

The image is cupid

  and you can find her here

The card is 6 x 6 and layered with cream  card 
and some lovely  papers from my  stash

I coloured the image with copics

e57,55,53 and 51

rv99,95,93 and 91
e53,51 and 50

I die cut the image  with a matching border
I added a rectangle layered with matching papers

I added a  sentiment printed from the computer
but was with the image just re-arranged
and layered with the same  card 
I added a die cut heart and some feathers
and a beautiful die cut flower made with love by me

Hope you like it

hugs Jane

party time!

Hi there everyone! hope you are having a good day! it's been a manic one here in the wilds of Rutland, with my husband recovering from a minor surgery, and the kids squabbling like crazy.. add a mother in law to the mix, and yea... hopefully you will understand why i'm a bit late getting my post out to you!

I have a birthday card for you today, using 'birthday surprise'.. I didn't intentionally set out to make a birthday card to show you, but this image is FANTASTIC for what I was practising on- adding translucency to coloured images!

the image used is 'birthday surprise' and I'm sure the surprise is what clothing she has left after letting all the balloons go!

yup- plenty of shiny balloons, which although still pretty cute coloured without looking at how they relate to each other, and colouring accordingly, look awesome when you show some of the colours behind them, don't they? I'll try to bring you a more in depth tutorial later on this month for the technique.. it looks daunting and scary, but in reality it's not so difficult!

Product list:

copics - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04 (skin) N8,N6,N4,N2 E21 (tights and shoes)

E29,E25,E21 (hair) YG17,YG25,YG23 (green balloons) BG07,BG05,BG02 (blue balloons and eyes) Y17,Y15,Y11 (yellow balloons) R56,R37,R35 (red balloons and lips)

sentiment stamp 

birthday themed papers

January New Release day!

Karleigh Sue New Release

January 2016

whoop whoop, it's finally here, the first new release showcase of 2016! 

We've all been having great fun showing you what can be achieved with the new colour club pack, but its time for yet more fantastic images to join the others in the store! This month there are four new hot beauties!

I'd also like to give a wave to Sharon, who has joined us this term as our GDT... she's already been beavering away with some amazing inspiration pieces, and to Kim who is our new sponsorship coordinator!

GDT Sharon has created this gorgeous mixed media page, featuring the new Hottie Lovely Lady Lumps..  isn't that fabulous chiffon trim to die for?

Jane has created a stunning valentines card, using 'main squeeze' , with gorgeous die cut embellishments.. 

Sue would like to introduce you to 'Fire Starter' who is definitely one hot chick.. this mainly monochrome card with touches of black is divine!

Crafting Vicky has been playing with the slightly naughty sexy girl 'chocolate covered strawberry' and that sentiment has been making us chuckle all morning! 

and last, but not least, Rachel has also used Lovely lady lumps to make a Clean and simple card with a naughty message inside!

Hopefully these projects have whetted your appetites, and made you want to join us in making some naughty valentines projects! 

you can find them in the Sellfy store , and you can find out more about all the projects on the design teams own blogs, so please do visit them and say hello!



Have a crafty weekend!
