MY BESTIES AUSSIE CHALLENGE..DT

 Hello everyone,

I have two projects to share today, which surprised me too, as I coloured..and enjoyed it with my floaters under control for now..

Time for another new challenge over at My Besties Aussie Challenge and the team are sharing another new release for you..

First up..Shabby Chic Birdcage Besties - Doll 19


I just love a birdcage....


So coloured using my left over flowers for inspiration along with the birdcage..


These flowers looked just like the ones in her hair..


I die cut heaps of cages to layer up...


And was chucking glasses of ice water down my throat, sheeez, it was a hot one that day...


Even Holly stayed inside in front of the fan and chewed my camera cord..


And strips of papers from my trimmings..


So all coloured up and matted...


added spots on her cushion..


and burlap with lace along the bottom..


Filled the cage with flowers and added a  pretty Bee,
 with a red bow and flower for contrast..


And there she is all pretty and nearly over decorated...

And, then we have card number two...
This cutie is called...



So fun to colour and had a fabulous time with the bugs wings...


I filled them with glossy accents and then sprinkle very fine silver glitter on top and they dried super thick and sparkly..


All the flowers were fussy cut and coloured and from my leftover box..


The centers filled with glossy accents and the leaves were die cut..you guessed it, leftovers..


I left her dress white and just added accents to her...so pretty..

So there we go, thank you so much for stopping by..
sorry it was such a long post with lots of pictures..

See you tomorrow..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Two beauties Chrissy and so glad you are still able to colour so perfectly! Naughty Holly. She would need to be careful or you will have a curly haired cat soon lol.
