2 late DT cards

I forgot to schedule my posts for Digital Tuesday and Charisma Cardz for this weeks challenges and I haven't been blogging at all this last week since I came home, so just realised that they hadn't been posted!

The challenge over at Digital Tuesday is to use punches, and our sponsor is Digital Delights who kindly gave the DT some images to use.
The image I used is called Hot Pot Larry from Digital delights and I coloured him as usual with my Promarkers.



 The spotty paper is by Craftwork Cards and the other one is another of my magazine freebies.....I'm trying my best to use them up because they normal just get left and never used.
As I said, I coloured the image with Promarkers (sorry no list today) and added some stickles to his wings.
The ribbon is from my stash and I nearly forgot to use punches on my card lol, so I punched out some circles with a 1 and 3/8" circle punch from Stampin Up and made them into flowers.
I just used some scraps of plain thin cardstock for the pink ones and scraps of the patterened paper along with some pink card for the other one and inked the edges with blue chalk ink. Easy peasy to make and fun too :)


 Here's the close up of little Larry, all sparkling :)



The challenge at Charisma this week is Jokes & Laughter (a creation to make you smile/laugh). I really struggled with this one because I am useless at this kind of card, but I gave it a go anyway.



The image is a digi freebie from Kenny K that I have had for a while and never used, and of course coloured with the usual Promarkers. Not my normal kind of colours, but it's a nice change.
This is another 5"x5" card and I am really finding them hard to work with..... there's just not enough space for all the flowers and embellies I normaly use lol, so I kept it simple again.
The papers are by My Minds Eye, ribbon from my stash and flowers are Primas.

I was going to add my sentiment to the front of the card but I didn't have enough room, so I put it inside instead.


I done the sentiment myself on the computer but I found it somewhere on the net while I was looking for something else.

And finally her close up.


Sorry I don't have a list of the colours for this one either. I did write them down but I've lost the piece of paper I wrote on. I wouldn't normaly use this kind of image, it's just not my kind of thing, but it wad fun to colour, except all the tiny detail.....I hate colouring tiny little bits like that, I always go out the line because the Promarkers tip is not thin enough.

Well that's it from me today, hope you are all having a great weekend and Happy Easter!!
