Two cards today because whilst I was waiting for OH to get off MY computer I finished a card that I had started yesterday. He'll have to wait longer for his tea now. The first is for this week's Cute Daisy May challenge which is a sketch. Daisy May has been coloured with watercolour and ordinary pencils. The backing paper is by Funky Fairies and the Cuttlebugged plate is purple mirror card. The flowers are digi stamps by Ann and have been coloured with Twinkling H2O's.
The leaves and the text plaque are Wizard dies.
The second card is something new for me. The challenge on Just Magnolia this week was to use some sort of stitching on your - either faux or real. I've seen a lot of machine stitching on cards and really like the effect so got my machine out and had a go. I've just gone round the edge - nothing too difficult although I found stitching through paper a lot easier than some fabrics. Now I never thought I'd use one of my Artylicious Guild pack papers on a 'cutie' card but that's what the bp is on this one. The flowers are prima, the swirl a Sissix die and the text Cuddly Buddly.
Thanks very much for visiting.

I think both these cards are gorgeous. I especially like the Tilda image and the swirl on the second card and the stitching really finishes it off. Lovely.

Hi Beryl
Thanks for the comments on my darling Daisy. So glad you like the award, surprisingly he's gone down really well. About the faces, on images, I've discovered copic markers, cult pens on the web does free delivery if over 2 pounds, E00 and E11 plus R20 works a treat. Warning you'll want them all.janex
So pretty! Love your choice of papers and colours. Thanks so much for joining us this week. x

Both beautiful cards Beryl and Ann's digi stamp flowers look fabulous!

Two lovely cards Beryl, you do cute really well. You asked how long it took me to produce my latest digital work and I suppose it was about an hour although I didn't really pay much attention! I'll take more notice when I do the next one and time myself.

Glad you got your pens I know you'll love them , if you look on the last followers on my blog there is a lady with a child, her name is Claudia Rosa, on her blog are copic colouring tutorials. janex
Fab cards Beryl as always and lovely colouring. Thanks for playing with Daisy May this week. Love Cynthia x

Hi Beryl rain again hey, thanks for telling Claudia about me I'm a bit of a fan of hers, she thanked me as well, so sweet. I have also got a confession to make. That card with the teen boy, is all fake stiching , I fooled a few people. I'm rubbish with a sewing machine, it runs away with me , so I use a tracing wheel and a fine liner , in my case a copic multiliner, works a treat and a lot less hassle,try it and see. janex (I'm such a crafting anorak)
Hiya Beryl

Love your new Puss Cat photos what an amazing environement for your puss cat.
