A Card for the Sugar Bowl "Girlie" Challenge

Good Afternoon Crafters, well its certainly cold outside today and we are being promised some snow maybe, not sure I want that to be honest but hopefully it will pass us by. Anyway todays card has been created for the special "Girlie" Challenge over on the Sugar Bowl, this was the image I chose from my winning last weeks Sugary Sunday Challenge over on Facebook and her name is "Molly" and is one of the Country Cousin Stamps from Funky Kits, shes such a little sweetie and I felt she was just right for this challenge.
Ive stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, then cut her out with my rotatrim and also cut a mount for her out of red card, the sentiment is one from my stash and has been also stamped onto white card and mounted onto another piece of the red card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of red card and the papers are from the Sweet Shoppe Digi Downloads this one is called "100% Girl" and Ive used three papers a very pretty flower design on a white background and the second is a stripe one which takes in all the colours from the first paper, and the third is a plain red paper which again is picking up the red in the background.
Ive started to keep my cards less bulky for posting as its costs so much for postage and I felt the background paper was busy enough without adding anything extra hope you agree.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-

Good Morning Crafters, well I hope youve all enjoyed a restful weekend and at least most of the snow has gone and now lets hope it stays that way, but for this weeks Challenge we do still want to see your winter designs its called "Wintertime" so dont put those stamps away just yet.
For this Challenge we are being sponsored by Freshly Brewed Designs:-

and Heather is offering a $10. Gift Voucher to spend on her website and here is what she says about herself and her company.

Hi. I am Heather Dennis. I am a homeschooling mother of 2 wonderful children, the wife of 12 years to the love of my life, a Christian and the owner of Fresh Brewed Designs. I have loved to draw and create ever since I was a child. My daughter has inherited my love of art and recently inspired me to start creating again.
All the images in my shop are hand drawn. I offer a wide range of images from coffee, cute and inspirational. I also love to create custom drawn images, so if you are looking for anything in particular, please feel free to drop me an email.


And we were lucky enough to be given several images to play with and I decided to use this one.

And this is called "Snowman Hide and Seek" and you will find it here on the Freshly Brewed Designs Website. I have printed them onto white card and then used my copic pens to colour it afterwards I used a square Nestabilitie Die to cut it out and then used the Marvellous Squares for the mount. The sentiment is a Just-Rite circle stamp and the snowflake die mount is a Whimsey one.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card and the papers I have used are from the Lili of the Valley "Christmas" paper set, both are with snowflake and tree designs in blue and white.
Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will go and visit Cards for Men Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the very talented Design Team have created for your inspiration and then I hope you will want to take part in this "Wintertime" Challenge.

Anyway even if you dont use one on your card you will still be receiving 3 digi images of your own choice if you are picked by random org.
And now for my card I have used this gorgeous Mermaid "Enchanted Ocean"and you will find her here.

 

I have actually used a pre-printed image for my card and the papers that come with it, you will find them here, and then created a easel card to make my card, its a 6"x 6" white card and the first mounts are blue pearlescent card, then I have used one of the backing papers for the inside and mounted the image onto another piece of blue card and placed this also on a further piece of backing paper for the front of the card.

I have then stamped a sentiment onto a piece of white card and cut it out with a heart die, and then placed some lace around the edges and then stuck it in the inside to use as a stopper for the face of the card. To finish of I have used two seahorse buttons on the front of the card.
