Hester: I could not choose because these images are so cute. So I made 2 cards - first one:Kimono Portrait    and second one: Snow White Chibi



Ruth:  I've used Kimono Portrait and coloured her with Promarkers.  And for once, I picked my papers before colouring the image as I found it way easier to do it that way instead of colouring and then trying to match papers!


Jane S - I have also used the adorable Kimono Portrait..colouring her with markers and pencils.
Julia I sneaked into this weeks challenge as the images are just soooo gorgeous .. I have used Snow White Chibi I have coloured her up using my Copic Markers and I have added the background using distress inks and water splashes, full details on my blog.



Lou: I have also used Kimono Portrait to create my card but sadly wasn't as organised as I thought for my DT project ... full story on my blog. She is coloured with pens and surrounded in plenty of foliage.



Just fabulous as always ladies.

Sharon
I love to use ribbon on my cards, and sometimes the tiniest accent is just enough! For my card to day I have used only 6 inches of 5mm ribbon but it is just enough to give that little lift! Thank s to Crafty Ribbons for sponsoring us this week.

Jane
Whenever I have ever used ribbons  they were in my daughters hair.  But this week for our Sponsor Crafty Ribbons I am using them on his notebook assembly using Helga Big Kahuna collection from Polkadoodles.  Details and more pictures on my blog.

 Claire C

I have to confess that I'm a bit of a ribbon addict and have loads of goodies from our lovely sponsor Crafty Ribbons. I've used some lovely pale blue organza ribbon on this card with  supercute image from the Polkadoodles Winnie Winterland collection and lots of Polkadoodles die cuts

I coloured Frosty  up with my sparkle pen and Graph'it Markers. Some times less is more. I just love finishing off snowy cards with baby blue ribbon x Thanks Crafty Ribbons for being our sponsors this week!
 
Just fabulous as always ladies.
