A Different Style For Me

Evening everyone I hope you have had a great day I have just had a lazy sunday playing with my stamps and made two cards today.This one is quite different for me look no papers.The top swirly stamp is from personal Impressions I coloured the little leafy parts with promarkers and for sparkle i added clear glitter all over the swirls,I then used a spellbinders die from Heartfelt creations and randomly placed them around then topped them with a gem.Oops I lied I have used papers but only for the flowers lol you know what I mean no matting with paper.
The frame and Thank you sentiment are from an Inkadinkadoo set.I have also glittered this frame and sentiment too,the flowers on the frame are made with a mini xcut punch.
Well what do you think pretty simple aye.
Here is a list of challenges I am entering this one into:

Wow My 3rd Entry

Evening all or should I say Morning its like 2am what am I doing lol.Can you believe that this is my 3rd entry for the sugar bowl and something else that is shameful is this is my only simply sassy stamp and i won this one on Fiona's blog i have some serious catching up to do to collect them all I think i need to buy even more lottery tickets.
I have tried to keep this one quite clean looking as I don't usually colour hair in these crazy colours so wanted the image to be the main focus so i hope i have achieved that.Just noticed her legs look pale in this piccie she needs to go on a hot vacation me thinks.
She has been coloured with promarkers and instead of the usal grey or pastel blue i have gone around the image in lavender as i thought it would look much better what with the purple on the card.I have left the sentiment off until I know who is to recieve this one.

A Shaped Magnolia Card

Evening everyone I hope you are all well and having a good week.Today I decided to make a simple shaped card and to have a practice at darker coloured skin and i think this magnolia image is perfect for this.
I have coloured her with promarkers and added stickles to the flower, gift and the collar on her dress.The shaped card is from Die cut dreams but you could easily use spellbinders label 7 for this style too.
The greeting is from an inkadinkadoo set which i have stamped onto a circle die and matted onto a scallopped circle die.Glitter was then added to the inner circle around the edge.To finish off i have added some purple rhinestones.
I hope you like it.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Crafters companion-glitter/glitz
Fashionable stamping-Anything goes
Lexis creations-shaped card
Papertake weekly-Anything goes
