Challenge Number 9 ................ FLOWERS


Right another week brings another challenge over at Suger Nellie on Splitcoast Stampers , this week its simple, all we want to see is
flowers,


how you choose to intrepret this is your choice, you can either choose a fabby sugar nellie image that has flowers in it (for example the new Mary Hall designs, or some of Leanne Ellis' work, or the many other images that have sweet flowers on them) or you can use flowers as your embellishments or on your backing papers, or a combination of them all, the choice as they say is yours, as long as your creation uses a Sugar Nellie image and flowers I'll be happy.




I have gone for the really cute FLEUR by Leanne Ellis, available now at FUNKY KITS
She's been coloured with PROMARKERS
DP - I honestly have no idea I found it in the scrap box
Sentiments - Stamping Up, and Cuddly Buddly
Flowers are from WILD ORCHID CRAFTS.

Finally My Card For SPS Sugar Nellie


Ok, I know I said I'd be back to share my card, and honestly I thought i would have been before now, but the bug that the boys have both had as now hit the grown ups with a vengance, todays the first day I've actually wanted to get out of bed since Saturday, good job the boys have been at my mums, or else I would have had no chance.



Anyway heres my monotone card......

I went for the yellow tones, as I thought it was quite apt for the name of the image is GOLDIELOCKS.
Used to Make this card were -
Image - Goldielocks from Funky Kits/Sugar Nellie
Coloured with - Promarkers
DP - Papermania Capsule Collection
Card stock - From The paperterie (Local papermill)
And I thinks thats about it, I've kept it fairly simple and let the colours show through (I think)

Anyway girls, you've got until Friday at 8pm to join in, and you might be the lucky winner of three Sugar Nellie Images of your choice.
Thanks for looking
