Love You

 Good afternoon friends

This is the card I made for the Double D Challenge

This card is dedicated to my loving husband in heaven



I took a cream colour doilie and coloured the heart in light pink using colleen water colours. Then I took a piece of acetate and cut out a heart. [In our country double sided tape in small widths are not available.] So I cut the double sided tape to the width I wanted and covered the heart. I selected pink colour seed beads one red colour bead as that was all I had small hearts and a large heart in red. then i put all that inside and sealed the heart.Once I did all that I realised that i had done the wrong one. I made up my mind and did it again thinking practice makes perfect(lol). I learnt all these small tricks from Tracey Mcnealy Thank you Tracey. Her shaker cards and tags are beautiful. I wish I could have bought clear tape. I coloured the edge of the doilie in pink as well as the sentiment I love you. I used a twin marker pen by Hangli for colouring. To add the bling i added 3 white pearl hearts and it was done. During the process i organised some of my embellishments as well. More to go. I will write a separate post on that when I finish.

Winter Wishes

 A very good afternoon to all of you

I made this card for the Merry Little Christmas Challenge. I stamped all the images I wanted using my Mini Misti. Then I fussy cut them and colored using the color pens and watercolor pencils I have. I took a piece of green cardstock and splattered white paint drops to depict snow. I have never seen snow. Then I applied white paint to the bottom of my card to look like snow. I couldnt apply evenly as the paint was not good and then i made my mind thinking the ground is not even either (Lol) Then I adhered my images using glue dots to give dimension.

"It' s a girls thing Turner Syndrome Awareness Blog Hop/Challenge 2021

 A very good afternoon to all of you

I first heard of Turner Syndrome three years ago and I am praying for all of you.

Turner Syndrome

It is a genetic disorder where a female is born missing all or part of her second X chromosome leaving her with life-long medical issues and learning disabilities. This condition occurs one in 2,000 female births worldwide, but is more common among pregnancies that do not survive to full term. That is why Turner Syndrome Females are considered MIRACLES!

I know that it can happen to anybody and pray that a cure is found soon.

My card

I made using 
Card stock
Altenew Artist Marker starter set
Colleen watercolour pencils
A clear stamp set (unbranded)
Sequins and a butterfly
paper quilled flowers





The sentiment is what a beautiful blessing you are to me which i think explains it all  I colored the girl using Altenew starter market set Cotton candy R403 and for the hair I used Colleen water colour pencils brown colour. Reach for the stars possibilities are unlimited.The cat was coloured using grey color. I added the butterfly as it identifies Turner Syndrome and added sequins and three quilled flowers as embellishments.
