She's been coloured with promarkers...
I created the skull paper by cropping down the Luna image to just the skull on her t-shirt, then copied and rotated it several times, and printed onto Kraft.
The other papers are MME and Prima.
I handcut a heart from the red spotty paper, and crackle glazed it, not too clear on the piccy though...sorry!!
I also handcut the 'rock' from striped paper...
The 'you' is from the greeting farm spotlight kit, I only stamped part of the sentiment.

Pollycraft Challenge 106 'distressing'

Good moaning... (went a bit 'allo allo' there!)

Hope you've all had a good weekend? I think I blinked and missed it... I'm still convinced its not really Monday!

Well... today we have a new challenge for you over at the Pollycraft challenge...

Maria has chosen....

Distressing!

let me tell ya! I think I could have posted ANYTHING and qualified for this, as it definately caused me some distress!!!

I'm just not good at distressing!! and thats the end of it!

So, after a Sonny card, and a rocking horse card.... (which both went in the bin)

I ended up with a robot card...

(and YES!!! the edges ARE distressed!! just not much ;))

This fella is Tin rose... from the critters and cogs range....

I've coloured him with promarkers...

The papers are DCWV and (?)

I've added a little heart button to his chest, just cos, I felt the card needed something!

I tucked two stamped brackets behind the circle to add a bit of interest...

 (this is from the greeting farm spotlight set)

The sentiment has been created using 2 different stamps

(only stamping individual words, to create a different sentiment... LOVE this!)

the 'Love' is from the Critters and Cogs set.. and the 'you' is from the greeting farm spotlight set...

Some enamel accents, a bit of fabric and doodling.... and thats it!

Thanks for visiting today!!

Pollycraft Monday Challenge Recycling!

Good Morning Pollycrafters!

Hope you all had a good weekend??

It was a quiet one here, Hubby has been working, and my (not so) little man has been either making snails do skateboarding stunts, or creating water filtration systems in the back garden...

(don't ask!)

So... its Monday so its time for a new pollycraft challenge!

its the lovely Emmas turn this week, and she's decided on...

 RECYCLING!!

its a fun one this... its fab looking at things in a different way... I'm pretty much like this all the time anyway!

I SAVE EVERYTHING...

I have a cupboard in my craft room FULL of old clothes, scrap cardboard... and all sorts of junk... lol!

anyway, I'm waffling...

Heres my card...

I'm really into making shaped cards lately... The truth is I'm out of large Square card blanks, and I have trouble fitting everyhting I want to on smaller ones... But I find if you make the shape interesting, you can add less detail... (does that make sense?)

Anyway, this is bascically a circle, and lots of small semi circles...

I havent used ANY DIGITAL STAMPS for this one... I dug out my rubber!!

I've used Sonny Honeycloud - Rainy days... I wanted to use the Stamp version so it was easier to paper piece the umbrella...

The papers are pink paisley bayberry cottage, and DCWV rockstar, i've just cut strips and alternated them...

The shiny 'fabulous' is cut from the same DCWV paper...

For the sentiment I've used the 'you make' from one of the Critters and Cogs setiment set,

and the 'every day' from the sonny says sentiment set....

I love just stamping part sentiments and mixing them up to create new greetings!!!

My recycled elements are:

a magnetic fastener from an old bag...

a yo yo flower mae of cord from old trousers

mesh from a belt tie thingy on an old top

and some ric rac which was wrapped around a birthday gift...

to finish I've just added a few raindrops, and gems...

SPECIAL OFFER FOR my readers...

The full set of these Sonny Clear stamps... including sentiments... is already on a special buy...

£29.99 for 8 character stamps and a set of sentiments...

I'm giving you a further £10 off!!

Use the code:

Well, thats me for today...

see you soon!!

Pollycraft Challenge #104 A Sketch by ME!

Hellooooooo!!

How are you all today?

I'm a bit sleepy... blimey it was HOT last night, I just couldn't get comfortable...

 I'd left the fan downstairs in my craft room, Yeah, you guessed it, I was too lazy to go and fetch it!

well, I would have got even warmer if I'd walked!

;P

Okay, so its Monday, so that means another Pollycraft Challenge...

And this time I've given you a sketch to play with...

Heres my card....

I've used my Favourite little lady (for now!!!... yes that's a hint...) Miss Sonny Honeycloud...

And a sentiment from the Sonny Says Clear stamp set...

She's been coloured with promarkers...

The papers are MME

and I've used a little bit of Kraft, and a bit of text paper I found in my stash...(not sure where it came from?)

The flowers and Ribbon are from my stash...

and I've aded a teeny bit of doodling and a lovely BIG button...

This is quite girly and flowery for me... which as I'm sure you'll be aware is unusual!

I quite like it though!

anyhooo... thats me for today!

Hope you have a fabulous Monday!!
