Another altered object

Todays item is an altered brown box. I got the box from Country Baskets a while ago and finally got around to decorating it.

 The papers are from K & Co, I've had these stuck in a cupboard for years! I've distressed the egdes with a file and some Tim Holtz Old Paper distress ink.

 The butterflies are Spellbinders and I've used both layers to give it a 3D effect.

 The image is from Make It Crafty and is coloured with Copics.

 A few close ups of the butterflies.

I've also added a Martha Stewart border at the side of the image.
I'm really pleased with how it's turned out. I also have a round box which I might have a go at soon!

PD

And here is another Polka Doodles card.

Again the image is coloured with ProMarkers. The papers are from the Basic Grey Sultry paper pad. I've used a Martha Stewart punch for the borders. The ribbon, flowers, hat pins and swirl are from my stash. I'm having fun with these PD images so think I might print a few more out and do some monochrome cards today.

Christmas easel card

One of my mums clients mum (my mum is a carer) had been looking for a card for her daughter who suffers from MS and was telling my mum she couldn't find anything suitable anywhere, so of course my mum said "my Daughter can do you what you want". And this is the card:

I do hope she likes it! The lady wrote the verse herself which is very moving indeed.

The image is one that was sent to me by a friend before I started getting into Tilda, isn't it cute! It is coloured with ProMarkers. The textured card and papers are from DCWV, as is the message sticker. I have used a Martha Stewart punch around the page set, and the ribbon and flowers are from my stash. I wasn't sure about putting flowers on a Christmas card but I think it look ok. What do you think?

Dotties World Sunday challenge

The challenge over at Dotties World this week is set by Adele and here is what she says:
With spring (hopefully) in the air I want you to think:

Paper Roses...............

or daffs, or tulips....you get the picture? BUT I don't want to see any pre-made flowers please - only die cuts, punched flowers or any flower/s you have made from scratch on your creations this week please. The only other limitation is that a Charmed Download MUST be used....but that is no limitation at all is it, there is so much to choose from! LOL


And here is the card I have done:
The image is from the Holly and Madison collection which is available at Charmed cards and crafts it is coloured with ProMarkers. The paper are from My Minds Eye. I have used a Martha Stewart punch for the borders. And the flowers is handmade by cutting 3 different sized petal shapes, inking the edges, scrunching them up and then opening them up and attaching them to a brad. Then close the centre petals over the brad hiding it.
