Santa Ellie with Gift

Hi today I am showing off this amazing image from Paper Nest Dolls that I got the chance to play with Santa Ellie with Gift. I love the cute little girls and boys available at the Paper Nest Dolls store (be sure to have a look around you won't be disappointed)

Being a Christmas lover I loved the fact that I got a Christmas image to play with and while I had an idea to colour her blue for a different card when it came time to colour her she just seemed to need the more traditional red

Hope you like her and are starting to get excited about Christmas (it is starting to get hot here so that always means that Christmas isn't far away).

Sugar Teens

Today it is my turn to share some inspiration with the new release Sugar Teens from SBS which you can get as a set here.

They are all super sweet and cute as can be but I have had the pleasure of working with the adorable Strawberry Princess London who I have coloured up in classic strawberry red and green and added some basketweave and strawberry papers to set her off

I have also had the pleasure of working with Candy Prince Jude and decided to go with some bright and fun colours for him.

With such amazing images I didnt feel that they needed too many embellishements so I just added a little bag of lollies borrowed from my girls to set him him off.

Hope you have liked what I have done with these super sweet cuties and why not head over and grab a set for yourself or just a few though choosing may be hard lol

Happy crafting and colouring

Pumpkin Penny

Inspiration post 2 from me today and this time I have been playing with Pumpkin Penny from SBS. When Betty first sketched this year halloween images I was really taken with this cutie so was really happy to get the chance to work with her.
