Quirky Parrot

This challenge, over at The Colour Crazy Challenge,

our sponsor is: Ike's Art.

I got this fun image called "quirky parrot"

I love the way his head is cocked to the side!

I coloured him with my promarkers and other alcohol pens, and used a white sakura pen

 for the feathers on this belly. 

I diecut a frame for him to sit along, and mounted him onto 3d foam for a bit of dimension. 

The flowers and leaves were punched, and a couple of the flowers are also on 3d foam. 

The backing paper is from my collection:

a 6 x 6 paper pack called "new leaf"

and the sentiment circle was a freebie form the web...yonks ago! 

(possibly 'desert divas' - lots of freebies!)

Lighthouse

At Patties Creations this month, we have the ever popular challenge: "anything goes!"

I used the image called 'lighthouse 2020'...

I coloured the image (which is he lighthouse, little attached building

and the rocks too) with my promarkers and

other alcohol pens. 

I tried to colour the bit underneath the rocks, so it resembled a rocky beach.

so dotted with lots of different greys.

I made the sea, by colouring a trip of card with different blues, then tearing the edge

to appear like the waves. I added

a few more strokes with my white sakura pen

for the waves in the sea. 

The backing paper comes form a paper pack of card I bought a while ago. 

I dry embossed the edge and 

stamped a sentiment along the top,

as well as dry embossing the edge of the base white card.
