Bellarific Friday- Flora the cyclist

Hi everyone! Hope you're having a great week and getting to spend lots of crafty time. This week's Bellarific Challenge was to use the below inspiration photo. I've used Flora the Cyclist- obvious choice right?!

I've coloured Flora with copics. These papers are soooo gorgeous and are by Fancy Pants called Park Bench- pretty apt I thought. Cos Flora is so huge and beautiful, I didn't think I needed much of a layout so I just did a fairy simple one. Butterfly is a Dienamic and bow is Memory Box.

Your close up. I love this colour scheme. I never use yellow!

Here was your inspiration photo for this week.

Here's your sketchypoo for next week's challenge. Don't forget to check out the other Bella's samples this week- they are awesome as usual!

Bellarific Friday- Miso wanna see you!

Hey peeps! I'm back with another Bellarific Friday challenge to show you...

This week's challenge was to use the below sketch. You know me, I'm all about the papers but this week I thought I'd go pretty simple and just use the one sheet! I never do that- right?! So I've used Uptownies Chelsea and Lauren coloured with copics. The paper is MME Indie Chic Citron. The accompanying sentiment is cut out using an MFT Dienamic Speech bubble with the end cut off. Flowers are Doohickey dies.

How gorg are these two?! I just love all the little details in the Uptownies. Dyou see how I matched the shape of the bigger diecut flower to the one in Lauren's (I think she's Lauren!) hair?

Here was your sketch for this week.

Here is the beautiful inspiration photo for next week's challenge.

Bellarific Friday- Mimi The Chick!

Hello folks! Hope you're all keeping well. This week's Bellarific Challenge was STITCH IT UP!

Now I had planned on using my sewing machine but, well, I'm rubbish with my sewing machine and it kept ripping up the paper and my impatience got the better of me so I decided for my own sanity it was better to do some faux stitching with a trusty gel pen!

I decided to use Mimi The Chick Misses You! I knew I had to have Mimi the moment I laid eyes on her! You can't get much cuter than Mimi can you? I coloured her with copics and paper pieced her cute schooly outfit with these papers from Authentique. I used Lil Inkers dies with a stitched edge and added my own faux stitching to the edge of the card. Don't you just love typewriter font used on this sentiment?!

Your close up! How adorably shy is she?! Glossy Accents of course on her glasses!

Next week's challenge is this fab sketch.

Bellarific Friday- Helga the Hot Chick!

Hi. Hope you're all well and enjoying lots of crafty time. My little one is keeping me extremely busy so craft time is extremely scarce these days!! 

I'm back with a Bellarific Challenge which this week was to use a sketchypoo (see below)

I've used Helga The Hot Chick and coloured her with copics. I just loved colouring her chicky fluff! The papers are by Fancy Pants. 

Your close up! I love the expression on her lil chicky face!

Here was your sketch for this week.

Next week's challenge is nice n easy- STITCH IT UP!

Bellarific Friday- Victoria and Juliette's Night Out!

Hey hey hey! It's Fridaaaaaay! So here I am with another Bellarific Friday Challenge. This week's challenge was to use the inspirational photo below. 

I took my inspiration from the frames rather than any colour scheme. Immediately I thought of the fabbie Polaroid Frame- such a cool stamp-I love that it's sketchy and it's such a useful size too! I decided to use Uptownie Victoria and Juliette's Night Out inside the frame. I coloured with copics and did some paper piecing and added some glitter and Stickles. Paper is by Fancy Pants and I added a mini Polaroid camera using a Dienamic.

Here's your usual close up. I stamped the Uptownie sentiment on the Polaroid too.

Here was your inspiration photo for this week. I love these inspiration challenges!

Next week's challenge is to use this sketchy! Can't wait to see what you all come up with!
