Poppies

I haven't felt much like crafting lately, but I have been wanting to colour these lovely Poppies for quite a while
so made myself sit down and colour them with copic ciao's. The colours I used were R22, R29, R35 and R59 for the flowers and G94 and G96 for the leaves.
cut them with Spellbinders standard circles large and layered onto Spellbinders petite scalloped circles large.
The lattice is Lattice 2 Dies Direct cutting die which I got from FatCats.
The background I made in my Paint Shop Program by making a paint brush from the stamped poppies.

Black Roses

Hello Blogging Friends,

I had a bit of trouble photographing this card the roses wouldn't show clearly so I had to lighten it a bit in my editing program.

On this card I have used the stitching pattern from Ann's Paper Art, corner punch is Martha Stewarts Poinsettia Flourish, and the roses were made with the Creatables 6 petal flower die  available from FatCatsCardCorner.

Happy Birthday Lahni

Hi,
I hope you all had a great weekend.
I spent most of mine battling with my computer, but I think I have it all running smoothly again now.
Our youngest  grand daughter Lahni is turning eight so I had to get her card finished  as well as fighting with my PC.
I coloured Tilda and cat and the little puppy with Faber- Castell colouring in pencils and blended with odourless solvent.
The background I made in my Paint Shop program and sponged with Memento Summer Sky ink.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

More CottageDaisy's

 Good Friday morning.....
Two more cards to show you using the Cottage Daisy.
The gorgeous quilted card is from Christina Re called Luxury embossed card, I love it but it only comes in Powder Puff Pink and white, and comes in packs of five.
I feel that this card is a little on the busy side, but I've already posted it off to a dear friend so lets hope she likes it.
I embossed the background with the Craft Concepts In stitches embossing folder and then sanded it slightly.
the little hearts border was another brass stencil and light box job also sanded.
