Hooked on Craft ... Challenge 19

Hi there Everyone!! I was going to try and update my blog in between the Hooked on Craft Challenges .. but somehow time has gone so fast!!! This months theme is Easter... which falls at the end of the week!!! I have created a Card and a Easter Egg Holder......

The Card I have used a Magnolia Image .. which I have coloured with my Copic Markers... I used the Warm Greys and a touch of Apricot .... I have used the beautiful Hooked on Craft flowers .. which I have Glimmer Misted then add a little ink and Copper Stickels to get the shade I was after to match my colour scheme. I have also used a Hooked on Craft Doily and gorgeous Charm... always my fav!! I added a little more bling to the Charm using the Copper Stickles , just to compliment my colours I am using! all of the above products I have mentioned are available at http://www.hookedoncraft.com/ so head over and check out the beautiful embellishments... and stamps .. hahah the list goes on and on!!!

Here is a close up for you to look at the layout of my flowers ... and Charm.. I am enjoying using feathers at the moment on my work .. I start with white boring coloured feathers ... glimmers mist .. stickels and they add a lovely addition to your projects...

I have also included a close up of the egg holder.... I love this idea... I saw this in the Magnolia Magazine ... Tweeked it a little... as I do everything... nothing I work on ends up how I think it will at the beginning ! The flowers here have been Glimmer Misted , and Inked and finally Stickled again!! adding a feather also I think ties everything in with my card~!

So pop over to

My husbands and My sons ... busy days ahead!!! Til next Time .... Many Hugs ... Love Michellexxxx
