I used the peach colour and the ladybirds from the inspiration picture for Cupcake inspirations 116:

I've used a favourite Penny Black stamp 'burst of stars' for Penny Black at Allsorts June challenge 'you're my favourite' and coloured with copic R32 peach.

I've doodled some faux stitching for:

Stampin' sisters in Christ 94: make a card that you doodle on

Copic creations: doodles

Creative inspirations 62: stitching

C.R.A.F.T. 107: include stitching

The card is much whiter irl - difficult to get a photo at night.

The ladybirds are for:

Commissioned card for 13 year old

I had a request for a card for a boy's 13th birthday - I was told he liked dogs and cats and playing computer games.

I downloaded Mo Manning's 'video boy' and coloured with copics, mounting on orange card before mounting on the K & Co 'rough and tumble' background paper.

The date and sentiment were done with my dymo letratag. The numerals were from Paperchase.

This is for:

Paper players 52: clean and simple

Stamp insanity 63: keeping it clean and simple

Aly's 44: all about kids

Shelly's terrifically thrilling Thursday: snakes, snails & puppy dog tails - a card for a boy

2 sisters 44: for a guy

Freshly brewed 49: it's a guy thing

Papertake: dads & lads

Deep ocean challenge 1: anything goes

Make it Monday 42

Mr Popper's penguins

Since last Monday on 365 cards the theme has been Movie week - I didn't start the challenges till yesterday and worked backwards, so I've now reached Monday's prompt, which is Mr Popper's penguins for day 105 - the easiest of the lot.

I used a blue card blank and tore strips of hammered white for the snow. The penguins are Personal ipressions 'peguin fun' and the sentiment stamp is from PI 'stay cosy this Christmas', all designed by Lindsay Mason. Just a little colouring and the card was finished - the hardest bit was cutting out the penguins.
