House of Gilli ~ Challenge 42

     Here's a cheerful little card for our current challenge at House of Gilli.  For this challenge you must add two sets of your favorite embellies to your card.  There's no way I can choose my favorites for this, but I added two different ribbons and two crystals to my card.  Here's my card for the challenge:
















I've used Cheer Gilli and colored the stamped image with Copics.  I outlined her skirt and pom-poms with Star Dust Jelly Roll pen.
The sentiment *awesome* is also a stamp by the creator of Gilli stamps, anaRy.  If you'd like to order a Gilli stamp, you may do so at:  orders@anary.com.  Hope to see you over at H.O.G.!!!

Through the Craftroom Door ~ Challenge 35

     We have the talented Michelle Perkett as our sponsor this week over at Through the Craftroom Door.  I've made a card with MP's lovely digi image Eva the Glam Mermaid.











     Our challenge is Anything Goes ~ so get those cards and projects in here! I printed the image onto watercolor paper and colored with TH Distress Markers, watercolor pencils and Copics.  Oh yes, and I added a tiny bit of some Twinkling H2O's.

House of Gilli ~ Challenge 41

Come join our challenge at House of Gilli by making a card with more than one fold.  I've created a card using a double fold card ~ card dimensions 5" x 6".  Shown below is the outside of the card; the beautiful paper is Enchanted by Authentique, given to me by my friend anaRy.  :)
Inside the card is the lovely Girly Gilli all dressed up and ready to go out for Halloween.  I've colored Gillie with Copics and used Distress ink around the image.  












Here's a close up of Gilli.  So are you ready to come and join us this week?!  Look forward to seeing all the creative folds for your cards.  :)
