Bizzy Buzzy Bumble Bees!

The challenge over at Anyone for Anya this week is to take inspiration from this photo . . . .

I have used the creeper crew stamp 'Monday' and given her a cute bumble bee outfit! Teamed with some fabulous free digital downloads from Craftastical, it has come together to make this:

I coloured the image with promarkers, for the skin I used blush and coral, hair, boots and other greys I used cool greys 1-4, for the yellows, I used tulip yellow & gold and the outline/eyes was pastel blue.

Edges were inked with Gathered Twigs distress ink.

Swirly Whirly

The challenge over at Totally Gorjuss is 'Swirly Whirly'

I used an Anya digi stamp cut out with a nestie and coloured with promarkers. I used the 'loopy' die from sizzix for the 'Swirly Whirly' part of the challenge (and it matches the swirls on the cupcake too!) 

I used all 'old' stash for this card, the main paper is a MM booklet of cute papers, the striped paper is from a 6x6 pad. The chipboard button is from an Upcycle set I have left over from a holiday (vacation) and the happy birthdays are from a Tonic phrase roller.
