Here is the original digistamp:

And here is my version:

As you can see I did a major crop!  Her proportions would be perfect for the very trendy skinny card option but because I wanted to add so much detail I printed her out much larger, and that didn't given room for the legs, lol. My card is 17 cm x17 cm.

She is coloured with polychromos and a touch of posca paint on her eyes. Background paper is from Making Cards Magazine.

The little bunny is so cute! I also had a go and doing a small checked pattern on her dress and bow, do you think it worked out ok?

And now for my purple creation using the Cheshire Cat digistamp from Dr.Digi's! (I know it's not my normal friday Dr.Digi slot but I thought he would make an awesome purple card, so I am popping in an extra Dr.Digi card today)

I kept to a mainly purple theme and coloured him with polychromo pencils! Do you think he looks like he should be up on the notice board in your Dentist's reception? lol.

Font is the Dr.Digi font called Samdan. Background paper from the stash.

A bit of info!

50 Million People have epilepsy world wide.

It is estimate 1 in 100 people have it.

In 50% of the cases the cause is unknown.

Purple Day is a global grassroots event formed with the intention to increase worldwide awareness of epilepsy, and to dispel common myths and fears of this neurological disorder. Further intentions of this movement are to reduce the social stigmas commonly endured by many individuals afflicted with the condition; to provide assurance and advocacy to those living with epilepsy that they are not alone in their ongoing endurance; and to initiate individuals living with the condition to take action in their communities to achieve these aims.

 The day occurs annually on March 26.

Got to the Purple Day website for more info!

It's Alice!

Happy Dr.Digi Friday Everyone! And today I bringeth you Alice! Not be confused with Alice the Alpaca!

So because I didn't stipulate which Alice I wanted to colour, my Boss (The Dr.Digi) sent me both! :D I decided to colour her up on a thank you card for the next time I need to send a thank you to my friend who is somewhat Alice obsessed. :) This Alice is part of a whole series on Dr.Digi, you can see them if you follow this link -  here.

I coloured her with polychromos and added a few drops of glossy accents and some stickles. The backing paper was from a freebie set from Making Cards Magazine. Fonts are Copperplate and Burton's Nightmare.

Here she is in digi format. And she is a bargain at only £1.50! Super cheap! She has really nice hair if you want to have a practice at Copic flicking! :)

Plenty more to see in the Dr.Digi Facebook group? Why not join us and see what the DT are up to ?

“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."

"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.

"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.” ~ Lewis Carroll.

Challenge 34

Back again with another Crafty Addicts Challenge Blog post and this time it's for Challenge 34 - ATG/CAS (Anything Goes/Clean and Simple).

We are very lucky to have Polkadoodles sponsoring this month and offering a prize of £6.75, which equates to 3 digistamps from their shop.

I have chosen for my inspiraition card  "Winnie Wonderland - I'm late" featuring a very hurried white rabbit!

I have, as normal, used polychromo pencils on kraft card. I added some sequin bling from the stash and the sentiment is in the font called "Angelina".

Here he is a bit closer - 

We are also running a challenge in our facebook group this month, with a great prize from Dr.Digi's House of Stamps. Pop by The Crafty Addicts on facebook for a look at the DT inspiration and details on how to take part. I'll do a second post today with more deets too.
