I received them yesterday and got playing last night. Really pleased with how they came out, particularly so with the Explore sample, love the monochromes and loved getting messy with Sparkle medium!<br />

<div>
I just couldn't resist the piercing boards for the Groovi system, knowing that it was just a matter of time before I got them and also invested in the Clarity punch to.</div>
<div>
For this card, I've used the straight piercing boards for the piercing in the centre and the outside and the diagonal board for the dotted embossing on the circle frame.</div>

<div>
For the flock of Swallows, I cut my own mask and built up the images, they have then been coloured with Spectrum Noir pencils. </div>
<div>
Then having covered all three swallows with masks and making a narrow corridor, I've used three different Adirondack ink pads, Sunshine Yellow, Sunset Orange & Twilight Purple and dusted them over the area with the Clarity brushes for the background and edged it with a wiggly black line. </div>
<div>
I've then placed the sentiment to the right of the Swallows and edged the whole piece with black marker pen to give the effect that it's mounted on black card.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I've used 4 different plates for this card and combined them to give my interpretation of the theme 'Christmas Story'.<br />
Oval Nesting plate - Outside edge and the glow from behind the hills<br />
Banners Border plate - Banner & wording<br />
Scenery plate from starter kit - Hills & used the straight line to make the star<br />
Deer Christmas Plate - Used the dots on the deer to make the stars<br />
I've then used Spectrum Noir pencils to colour the sky, glow and banner and mounted on black card.<br />
<br />
I am entering this card into the following challenges:<br />

It's now sold out on Create and Craft, but you can get your copy of both the first and second CD <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/adult-colouring-books-pages/" target="_blank">here </a><br />
<br />
So down to business:<br />
<br />
1. Using cheap copy paper, curve this round the shape of one the outside edge of one of your shoes, so it fits tightly at the edges & trace the edge lightly with a pencil.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjupcvDYuSqEpKSS3236aRZcB-o9Z7KDTXKmLwt-pYU2XUlCcQtVioZxFTlKPquQfFH7vtla3cJXK5VuXG8Tqzyi-M_VIRwgQOWIVEu1gZtVkb7AlNmUvgx-gBTfMbw_A_0WO1IYxcFOtE/s1600/1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjupcvDYuSqEpKSS3236aRZcB-o9Z7KDTXKmLwt-pYU2XUlCcQtVioZxFTlKPquQfFH7vtla3cJXK5VuXG8Tqzyi-M_VIRwgQOWIVEu1gZtVkb7AlNmUvgx-gBTfMbw_A_0WO1IYxcFOtE/s200/1.png" width="141" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
2. Repeat step 1, but for the inside edge and the toe and cut, making a note on each piece on the side facing out from the shoe, which section it is for and whether it's left or right. (Note, there is no need to cut a second set for the other shoe, just flip the ones you've already done!)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTXlqzIWoeZzZpxfV1bf4SklmRHobd5sv5vw8rwArqDijw547OnMGqxraRCUtXVEwBlFBgheS35aSbW_vBx3-oP_pGtRkXkq6tgxGyALNlsPxzoUnBCB3Xa6vK7aQpKl5Fer15hhjUYQM/s1600/2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTXlqzIWoeZzZpxfV1bf4SklmRHobd5sv5vw8rwArqDijw547OnMGqxraRCUtXVEwBlFBgheS35aSbW_vBx3-oP_pGtRkXkq6tgxGyALNlsPxzoUnBCB3Xa6vK7aQpKl5Fer15hhjUYQM/s200/2.png" width="141" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
3. Now the hard bit, choose which of Nikkys gorgeous papers you want use.<br />
<br />
4. Using your templates, trace round them and cut directly out of the colouring page. I managed to fit all three templates onto one A4 print out.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC1VmJ7azZ_haz_kCyVirP7Eb2yVl6kqXcY3e6rADsDGDITe7CAR4wraGgej7S1qpPJuJXI5cRBwj7spvW_pYpA7BFwXDPjTNHVAwbZs1stieCcPE-MuqqF461frnRcIzw4Ilo01epU4w/s1600/3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC1VmJ7azZ_haz_kCyVirP7Eb2yVl6kqXcY3e6rADsDGDITe7CAR4wraGgej7S1qpPJuJXI5cRBwj7spvW_pYpA7BFwXDPjTNHVAwbZs1stieCcPE-MuqqF461frnRcIzw4Ilo01epU4w/s200/3.png" width="141" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
5. Flip your templates, and repeat for the other shoe, you should now have six sections ready to colour. (Be sure to note and the back of each in pencil left/right and inside edge/outside edge)<br />
<br />
6. Get colouring! I would recommend using alcohol markers for a tidier and brighter finish. This is because the glue you will be using will be water based and any other medium may smudge when pasting the glue on.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV4tPGCNTNquerTkx23znaMmi7nvm9gFwXxsjh-0Wz2TikeeexJM46RbhZBzPlaH8jmPENROOUxmSdiN0TjXV2Y_EQ2CjmzFMn8tY4uZFIL4pIw_-iAdO-zLU4G6mVITcHSE117eTM15o/s1600/4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV4tPGCNTNquerTkx23znaMmi7nvm9gFwXxsjh-0Wz2TikeeexJM46RbhZBzPlaH8jmPENROOUxmSdiN0TjXV2Y_EQ2CjmzFMn8tY4uZFIL4pIw_-iAdO-zLU4G6mVITcHSE117eTM15o/s200/4.png" width="141" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
7. If you are using a smooth pair of shoes, gently rub the exterior with sandpaper, this helps the paper and glues to adhere to shoe.<br />
<br />
8. Using a either a thin PVA or other clear drying glue (I've used Mod Podge), cover the underside of one of the coloured side sections and manipulate it onto the side of the shoe. This can take some time to get all the edges in the right places, but the more glue you use, the easier it will be to move, but be careful not to tear the paper, as it will be quite wet and delicate.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0mP6Aa4Na-Wgc8X1YqJompG2xPyA5Z9SIYBfN90CLJmPQV0alaJANGyGF7kKlq14V_CmytXi5si7vj6I_j7FGihIY_uv96MUN_AGFRBA9rQpQcmP79T6Lvf_0Q6hmtrbigJprXiKEUb8/s1600/5.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="141" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0mP6Aa4Na-Wgc8X1YqJompG2xPyA5Z9SIYBfN90CLJmPQV0alaJANGyGF7kKlq14V_CmytXi5si7vj6I_j7FGihIY_uv96MUN_AGFRBA9rQpQcmP79T6Lvf_0Q6hmtrbigJprXiKEUb8/s200/5.png" width="200" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
9. (Now the messy bit!) When the side piece seems pretty much in the right position, paste more of the glue over this and smooth with your finger. This gives you more opportunity to get everything in just the right place.<br />
<br />
10. Repeat for the second section and the toe and leave to dry.<br />
<br />
11. If you are intending to wear your shoes outside, now use either a varnish or Mod Podge Exterior (with the green label) and cover the shoe completely again, this time though, pay particular attention to the edges of the paper, to ensure water can't get under them. Again leave to dry completely.<br />
<br />
12. As a finishing touch, I've used fringed ribbon round the edge, it just gives them a little bit of 'Je ne sais quoi!'<br />

For my glitter card, I've used one of the design sheets from <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/frosted-winter-octavia-digital-downloadable-cd-rom-crafting-collection/">Octavia Frosted Winter</a>. I love these design sheets, they all have enough elements for at least 2-3 cards on a single sheet! I've teamed with some glittery pink card, lots and lots of Stickles and just a few Aurora Borealis stick on gems. Sparkle a plenty!</div>

I've chosen this week to use one of the pre-coloured images from <a href="http://polkadoodles.co.uk/octavia-moonfly-big-kahuna-digital-craft-download-bundle/" target="_blank">Octavia Moonfly</a>, just as a reminder you don't always need to hand colour if you don't have time!
