Challenge #106 Going Green

Hey everyone :) Here is my latest creation for the Corrosive Challenge Blog

Sorry gotta make a short and quick. The image is from Greeting Farm which I colored with copics. The image of the card was photographed near the window and for some reason came out a little darker than I wanted.

Anyhow...I have to go for now but will be back soon :)

Have a great day.

Challenge #105 Distressing-Sparkle image

Hello everyone! Here is my card for this weeks Corrosive challenge 105, Now I love distressing but using the image really did make it a challenge. The image is from SparkleCreations and this one is Cocktail Emily. I colored her her Copic markers. The glass I used C1 for slight shading and the used glass effects to give it a more realistic look. The background matting I used Tim Holtz distressing inks in three complementary colors. I distress the frame I used for the image and gave it a vintage feel by sponging SU CC around the edges.

I hope you all like it :)

Have a great day :)

Challenge #104 Magical Creatures

Hello everyone :) Okay so My card literally got messed up and I'm quite upset but I didn't feel like making another one so I hope that it's not too noticeable. The liquid pearls that I love using smeared when it fell so I had to compromise and make a line around where the dots were...

I'm still not 100% happy with it but whateva!! I'm having one of those weeks I guess...
even the picture didn't turn out well...

This is my entry for this weeks Corrosive Challenge Blog

I did combine two challenges though because I was away last week. So I put the sketch and this weeks challenge to work on this card...maybe that's why I feel it didn't turn out well...

Let me know what you think..
Have a great Day!

Challenge #102 Red, Orange, Yellow...Fire

Hey Everyone!

The late post is a combo challenge from #101 and  #102

I added a button for challenge 101 to the flower and the colors required for this weeks challenge were fun. I have a ton of Bazzill Cardstock and the shades of REDS, ORANGE'S, and YELLOWS were a plenty in my collection. So I used my MS punch and punched out three borders and thought simplicity would be perfect for the colors of this challenge seeing as they are quite vibrant.

So here is my entry!!

Hope you all like it :)

A Fantastic Find and Great InFo!!!

Hey there everyone...well I'm not posting a card to today but will be posting links and feeding you all some terrific info...

A very dear friend of mine whose daughter is a grand Make-Up artist now has a blog of her own. I always get irritated when I have to buy a piece of make because testing it in the stores are not always going to look the same as when you bring it home and then put it on. Then that is when you end up deciding if it suited you or not...then decide if was a waste of money. Been there DONE that!!! lol

The links below will get you directly to Karleigh's Blog

Here is a link I think everyone would get something out of

This link too Is also extremely helpful

Explaining Highlight and Contour

Here is a tip with using eyeliners

Now for me personally I love make up and have used almost every product under the sun so the info I'm finding on her blog is actually helping me decide on what my colour swatch should be. Highlights, foundations...lip colors and so on...now what do you do with the make your not using...

Well Ladies!!! we all Make Cards and Scrapbook and there is lots of info on the net about how to incorporate unused make items instead of dishing out mounds of money that some of us either don't have or are not just willing to spend..Links for those too will soon follow.

Enjoy the info and let me know what you all think or better yet leave her a comment letting her know how she was found.

Have a good day all!!
