A Spoon Full of Sugar - Photo Inspiration

This week over at a A Spoon Full of Sugar I am hosting our challenge and have the below photo inspiration for you. Hope the bright zesty colours don't scare you too much! lol With the cold weather (here in the UK anyway) I thought a little warmth was needed! There is tons of fabulous inspiration from the DT and our wonderful guest Shirley aka Nannieflash for you over at the challenge blog.

I can't remember the last time I used a Hanglar and just adore these sweet images. The papers are Kaisercraft Candy Lane and I have also used the dp to paper piece her little dress and bag. I have coloured with Copic Ciao's... did you know there are 36 new colours? I have also used Orange Organza ribbon and 4mm & 8mm flat back pearls.

I have also used the great sketch by Jorunn over at Friday Sketchers.

Hope you can play along with us this week my store Bunny Zoe's Crafts is our sponsor and one lucky player will win a gift certificate to spend in the store! What could you buy.... check out our NEWEST ARRIVALS:



Have a wonderful week!

Hugs

You may also notice that we have a few special guests joining us for this challenge!! A few of our Original Divas have returned for this special event. Make sure to say "hi"!!

Here is a little about my card. I have been dying to ink up this fabulous Dustin Pike image Xavier & Oliver... I have given Oliver rosey cheeks so think my sweet bear should be called Olivia! Xavier and Olivia ;-) have been coloured with copic markers with a little Prismacolor pencil and sansodor to blend. The cute sentiment is also High Hopes. I thought these papers from MME State of the Heart went perfectly with this image. The Iloveyou was also cut out from the papers. Other products used: Martha Stewart Doily Heart Edger Punch, Heart Pins and flat back pearls.

I won't keep you any longer... from here you will hop to the super talented Sirpa

I can't wait to see what everyone has created also!!! Have fun!!!
