Something Different (with lots of pics!)


Hi everyone, well as the title suggested i've created something a little different.... perfect for this weeks Papertake Weekly Challenge!! I'm also enetering it into this weeks A Spoon Full Of Sugar Challenge where the thme if 3-D :D Well, i've never gone O.T.T on my cards but i really wanted to make a box to complement a card i made yesterday that i was very proud of. It's using one of the cute pirate Tilda's one of blogging friends sent to me. For a change, i coloured her with pencils and only used promarkers for the skin tones! And i used colours i defiantly wouldn't use but there's so many combo's in my BG Sugar Rush pad i can experiment! Sorry for the amount of pics! :D

This is the card on it's own:

I kept the layout quite simple, only adding the odd pearls and bow on the side. And here's a close-up of how i've coloured Tilda: she looks so sweet! :D I've coloured her with pencils for a change and only used my usual of promarkers for the skin tones.

And this is the box on it's own, i forgot the exact measurements but next time i make one I'll write it down! They're really quite simple! xx



And that's it! Sorry for all teh pictures but the weather was glorious and i thought i might as well get a few good ones while i'm out there lol!! :D


Thanks for visiting me, i really appreciate it! Please leave a comment if you have time?? :D

  6. Hi Fern,
    WOW!!!! this is gorgeous. Love the fabulous Tilda image and the colouring is fab. The bright papers look really funky but the flowers have made the card look pretty too. Love the box and how you have decorated it, they are quite simple to make when you know how arent they!! I made a couple to go with the wall hangings yesterday.
