Great new stamps for you to buy.

With a bit of a variation on the words the Stylistics song Sideshow fits in quite well with the theme of our hop today LOL.

Yep it's the big one Mo and Zo's Carnival release hop, Mo's Dream Team and Zoe's Colour Addicts have got together for the show of the year and wow stunning creations or what!

We have got some AMAZING prizes from these fantastic sponsors Stamping Bella, Quixotic Paperie, Mo's Digital Pencil and of course our very own Make It Crafty

If you came to me from the talented Leah then your on the right track and you will have seen how cute the Christmas Elf is balancing on his unicycle, just goes to show Elves aren't just for christmas LOL.
And now to my creation, this is what I have to show you.

For my card I have combined Ticket Booth from Make It Crafty with Mo's The Fat Lady
Make it Crafty's Circus Tent with The Unicycle and Fair Carousel with Mo's Jojo.

I coloured the images with Copics and used some of my new goodies from Ally Pally for the embellishments.
The tickets are a Tim Holtz Die for the cuttlebug and the text on them are from Lily of the Valley. The rosettes are another sissix die that I just had to have.

The papers are by Fancy Pants

I have added lots of Sakura glitter pen to the images but its not showing up on the photos too well  :-(

Di's Digi's, Copic Colour

I am sooooooo excited I just come back from booking a holiday and were going to Bali which looks so fabulous I cant wait luckily were going in April so I wont have to wait too long and drive my other half completely mad going on about it.

Anyway to the card - I got this adorable Maisy digi image from Di's Digi Store she was just soo lovely to colour.


the papers are from the DCWV Sweet collection and the Garden Party Stack. I was going to enter the card into a challenge which was 'no embellishments' but I felt it really needed something so added flowers that I punched and I have to say I am really pleased with how this turned out.

I am going to enter it into the Copic Colour Challenge which this week is

Fab n Funky Any Digi Image

Copic Colour Challenge 40 GDT

I added my name to the list of wanna be guest designers for the Copic Colour Challenge and was asked to join in with this weeks challenge. Thanks for the invite Adele. This weeks challenge is sponsored by In Style stamps



The colours for this weeks challenge are Karen's choice; RV23, YR04, YG06
Once I pulled these colours out I just knew that I needed to use a pixie digi image from Charmed Cards and Crafts.

I just love easel cards and couldnt resist doing just one more, which gave me an excuse to use another pixie and decoupage flower for the inside. The papers, buttons and decoupage flowers are from the Bloom and Grow set, by My Minds Eye. I cant wait to see what you all come up with for these colours.

Happy Halloween

It's a new challenge over at Cute Daisy May and this week we would like to see your halloween projects.

I have made some treat holders using some of Linnie's cute witches which you can purchase from here.

The bags were cut on my cricut and the images were all coloured with copics and I added a touch of glitter.

I just hope I get some trick or treaters now or I may have to eat all those sweets myself:-)

I am going to enter these into the Copic colour Challenge for this week.

Just because

I made this card just because I wanted to play around a bit. The fairy image is a digi image from Cute Daisy May Sheet 99.

The toadstool houses are digi images from Bearly Mine Designs and the papers are also downloads but hand on heart I'm not sure where from, possibly funky fairies or Rasberry Road.

The flowers are Hero Art and the fairy charm is from Bunny Zoe's Crafts

I coloured the images with copics, the fairy wings I added Sakura Glitter pen and then I used Glossy Accents. I left them to dry naturally and as I used Copic paper which is really thin the images distorted quite a lot, which I liked as I feel it gives them added dimension without having to decoupage them, although I did add an extra set of wings to the fairy.

I kept the inside quite simple with a continuation of the papers and the fairy. The photo doesnt really do it justice as the light reflected off the glaze and gives it a milky appearance which it doesnt have IRL.

I now need to make a box for it as it is too delicate for an envelope.

I have just realised that I can enter this card into the Copic Colour Challenge which this week is



Thanks for stopping by.

Challenge 24

The colours for this weeks Copic Challenge http://copicscolourchallenge.blogspot.com/ is
BG02 New blue, RV02 Sugar Almond Pink and YG03 Yellow Green.

I have used another Cute Daisy May Image, which my sons says does not go with the DP's that I have chosen ie Umbrella and flowers, personally I think it sums up our summer perfectly lol.

Anyways hope you like.

Masking and Challenge 23

The challenge at Stamping for the Weekend http://stampinfortheweekend.blogspot.com/ this week is masking with two or more stamps. I thought this would be a good opportunity to get out my adorable Lumas Thorn Elves and some of the background stamps I had got at Ali Pali and not used.

Only problem was I couldn't make up my mind which elf to use so I had to use all of them.

I started off with Egbert and put him with these toadstool houses I also include some toadstools and tall flowery things.

For Elvin I masked him with a frame woodland stamp and for Trump who is my favourite I used a mystical tree which I added leaves to and toadstools.

I have coloured all the images in copics, the challenge at Copic Colour http://copicscolourchallenge.blogspot.com/ this week is to use R35 Coral, YG63 Pea Green and YR04 Chrome Orange which I have used in all of the scenes. I haved stickles and Sakura glitter pen to the piccies.

The patterned papers are all from Bearly Mine Designer Extreme Vol 1 or 2. Leaves are punched using L-Em punches and flowers are from Petaloo. Mesh is from Nikki and ribbon was from Donna.

Challenge 21, Challenge 16, My favourite things, Challenge 14 Christmas in July

This is my first christmas card for this year. I have just received this Sarah Kay xmas stamp and couldnt wait to try it out. I used downloaded papers from Funky Faries traditional christmas collection.

I am going to enter this card into the Papertake weekly challenge which is my favourite things, christmas is definetely one of my favourite things, I used doodle parts from Spellbinders which are my favourite shapes and added ultra fine glitter, which I love. I also used my favourite nesties which are Labels 4.
