Well it's not often you see me posting twice in one day, and if you are looking for my Divas by Design post please scroll down, but I realised earlier that The Sugar Bowl closes in a little while and I wanted to join in, so no waffle just card! Will waffle another day - bet you are are sooo sorry no waffle aren't you ;-)
I did one card to follow the optional theme (no patterned paper) and then had a go with colouring using stronger colours - not something I'm used to - and patterned papers.
So, card following theme:

I used:
Sugar Nellie image: Manga Girl #2 - coloured with my Promarkers and Flexmarkers
Will be back later with rest of details - am in the middle of daughters bath and bed routine, so no time.
Am still being good and have not brought anything, but am using up my stuff. I was also following along with Lisa and using a stamp I think I've only ever inked once before!
It was like going shopping making the second card - I'd coloured it before I choose the papers, so had a long wander around the (ahem) many (substitute - hundreds!) of 12x12 papers that I own!
Hope you are all well,
Sarah
A challenge, or two:

They are both gorgeous Sarah...and love the fab papers too...lol..
have a great evening...hugs Vicky xx
Both gorgeous cards Sarah, glad to know its not just me who owns a few (ahem! Hundreds, like you say!) papers. I have to confess though, I have not managed to stick to my new years resolutions, oh dear, I wasnt buying any more paper pads (bought 2!, i blame sara!!), and no tildas from new collection till i have used all my stamp club, (again, bought 2!) oh well, always next year.
Hugs Kat xx
Gorgeous - I love the colours you have used xx
2 smashing cards Sarah. Well done on finding papers that match your colouring so perfectly. I haven't bought anything yet but do still have some hobbycraft vouchers which I am saving until I 'need' something. Debs xx
They're both fab Sarah, love the colours you've used for her. I've got this stamp too, and amazingly for me I've actually used her a couple of times too ;o) Thanks for keeping me company on my little challenge hun! Lisa x
Awww how cute, love the colours you used.. and you are such a good girl :) he he me too am trying to use up my stuff before buying anything :)
Oh well done you for not buying or trying (lol) to abstain from craft purchases. I have already bought Spring Magnolia stamp club, so thats a fail.

I almost forgot I had this cutie! This is fab Sarah! I really should make a resolution to ink my stamps at least once I have a tonne that have not been inked! Hugs rebekah xx
Both are so gorgeous Sarah, fab image and coloured so beautifully...just spotted that gorgeous Merdian border die, it was on your blog that I first saw it and had to have it, love it.

Lovely card Sarah and oooh, I love that fancy die you've used.
It's gorgeous Sarah... and good to know I'm not alone in the colouring first, choosing paper later (or having hundreds of 12 x 12's!) gang!
