Crafting When We Can Challenges 77 - Borrow a Sketch (give credit to the place you borrowed from)

A week late but having trouble with blogger. Sometime it lets me in sometimes it tells me I don't exist. I do I have a stinking cold to prove it.

Anyhoo over at CWWCC we have the wonderful sponsor

Sassy Studio Designs

We were given 2 images to play with and I received Queen's Coronation Sassy. I think she looks very regal. I chose the papers first before I coloured her in. I've had these papers for a while and didn't know what to do with them but as soon as I saw this image I knew I could use them, they are from Hot off the Press (Lemonade Stand). Image and pearls are coloured with Spectrum Noir Pens. I used a corner rounder to clip the square edges. The flower are Petit petal pairs from Tonic. I borrowed the sketch from Sketches by Carly. Carly no longer runs the sketch challenges but she is designing images now at Imagine that Carly's Cuties.

Hop over to CWWCC and join in with your borrowed sketches (please credit the place you borrowed the sketch from).

Crafting When We Can Challenges 71 - Leftovers (use your scraps, nothing new)

Sorry to miss the last Challenge but I had an amateur production on and I help with the wardrobe and I've not been feeling well so I just didn't get around to keeping up with my DT work. So sorry to my DT colleagues and Sponsor for letting the side down but sometime life just won't play nice.

Anyhoo, the Challenge this fortnight is sponsored by

Sassy Studio Designs

4 images of your choice

Theme

Leftovers

use your scraps, nothing new

We were given a choice of image to use for this challenge and I chose Latte Momma Sassy.

All my papers and embellishments are things I took out of my scrap box. The papers are years old, the spellbinder die used is one of my oldest, the ribbon is out of my scrap ribbon box. I did use my Spectrum Noir pens but I feel like I've had these for ages too. The teacup and teapot are about 2 years old and coloured to match my image. The newest item I used is my petite petal pair punches, these are about 2 months old but I think I'm allowed these. :-) The sentiment is "There is no trouble so great or grave that cannot be much diminished by a nice cup of tea" by Bernard-Paul Heroux (and American politician). I feel this is so true, I love a good cup of tea at any time happy or sad.
