4 in 1 card

I followed the sketch from Truly Scrumtious and followed the colours from Stampin for the Weekend of Red Green and Gold this also fits with the Dare U 2 Digi Stamp colours of Red Green and a neutral colour of choice and the Creative Card Crew red and green Christmas.

Sems Sketch

I made this card following the sketch at Sunday sketch and stamp using my very first Tilda stamp.
I added a handmade flower to the card cos I just know I saw a challenge for Magnolia stamps that included a hand mad flower, but dah I cant find the challenge now to enter it, how daft am I :-(

No matter I loved making the card anyways.

Easy Peasy

Now if you have come to me from The Cute Daisy May Challenge Blog, then your on way cause I have the privilege of being first.
Our challenge for the Hop was to make a card and use Gems and this is what I came up with

This little cutie can be found Here and is on sheet 47.
She is coloured with copics and mounted on Spellbinders Nesties which I have used Tattered Rose Distress inks and Crafters Companion Gold Spray on. The papers are Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses. The flowers are made with my new punches from Cuddly Buddly and are by Nellies Choice, I love them they emboss too! Oops musn't forget the important bit the 'Gems' are from my stash.

I kinda got a bit carried away with this card and carried on inside where I used this fab image from Sheet 115

I made the card into an Easel Card and cut her off of the swing she was sitting on in the drawing and attached her to a wooden swing (ok a bit of lollypop stick attached with wire), so that she swings when pushed.

A quick side view


I hope this inspires you!

I forgot to add that I have entered this card into the Saturday spotlight with Hidden Potential Challenge which is Hats. My CDM on the swing has a lovely bonnet.

Marlenes Sketch

I was asked to do another card using the same image and sketch that I used for the Sugar Bowl Challenge for a friend's twins birthday.

The papers are Eskimo kisses. To give a bit of depth I decoupaged the umbrella and bird, which I attached with silicone.

Challenge 6, Hazels sketch, Challenge 4

I got this cute digi snowman today from Victoria Case.
I would just love to know what secrets that snowman is telling the moon, although I have a sneaky suspicion their probably talking about the weather!

The challenge over at Victoria Case Stamp Challenge this week is a colour combo of Navy Silver/Grey and White.
I didn't think at first I would be able to fit this image into those colours, but in the end I think it kinda works okay.

I followed the sketch from Moving along with the times as it was a nice simple sketch, which I think fitted the image better. Creatalicious Challenge is Christmas snowflake and sparkle. So this fits for that one as well.

Snowman was coloured with Copics and a really fab Marvy Marker 'Twinklette' which would you believe I have had stuck in a drawer since before dot and never used, now I know how lovely it Im gonna be using it on v€erything.

Sketch 78

This is another of the Sugar Nellie stamps I got Friday I couldnt not ink her up too.
I followed the sketch over at Sketch Saturday although I did run out of room so couldnt add the text :-(

Eskimo Kisses Basic Grey
Perga liners Aquarelle Pencils
Swavorski Crystals
Sugar Nellie Santa's Little Helper
Fired Brick Distress Ink
This also fits with the Simon Says Challenge which is Animal Antics.
Thanks for looking

Challenge 24

This little beauty from Sugar Nellie arrived on my doorstep on Friday and this has been my first chance to ink it up.

I followed Marlene's sketch at The Sugar Bowl, this week it is to include the added element of Zig Zags. I covered this by using the Pinking blade on my rotacutter. Papers are Eskimo Kisses.

I coloured the image with Perga Liner Water Colour Pencils and Sakura glitter Pens for the flowers and of course Glamour dust for the added sparkle. I mounted the flowers on an icicle from the Range and added some Swavorski cyrstals for bling and Woodware fluffy stuff for the snow.

I'm also entering this into the Kraftin Kimmie Challenge which is
Christmas/Winter and Cute Card Thursday Teens.

Red Christmas DT for Cute Daisy May

Went to France on Saturday for a day trip with my work colleagues and had a four hour lunch - but I think all that food didnt agree with me and to serve me right I had the mother of all migraines yesterday so didnt get to make my DT card for
Cute Daisy May till this morning.

This week we want to encourage you to get well ahead of your christmas card list and make a card with the theme Red Christmas.

Couldnt quite finish it in time for the new challenge post but thought I would share it anyways.

This little poppet can be found on Sheet 115 Here.

I coloured her in Copics and Perga Liner water colour pencils. Added glitter for bling and snowflakes cut with a spellbinders die.

The DP is DCWV which I coloured with Distress Inks.

I am entering this into the Dare U 2 Digi Stamp Challenge which is Glitter.

Thanks for stopping by

challenge 28

Just a quick post I made this card following the sketch at Papertake Weekly.

The image is a download from Cuddly Buddly Crafts. DP's are Eskimo Kisses by Basic grey. I added snow Tex round their feet, havent used that before and I have to say am well impressed with the results, I reckon I will be using this loads (should have got two pots lol). Snowflakes are from the xmas decorations section at the Range with a spellbinders die cut one to add a bit of extra bling.

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.

Snow and #78

I was one of the lucky 150 to recieve a free digi image from In style Stamps. I chose an adorable Dressmaker, known as Seamstress Cynthia, and for the eagle eyed amongst you this is not it.

As I was looking to see which image I wanted I spied this little cutie Sandy and I bought her to enter into the Instyle Stamps Challenge which is Snow themed.

I followed the sketch from Friday Sketchers

I coloured Sandy in Copics and added the essential glitter. DP is from Bearly Mine Designs. Matting done with my Nesties and the snowflakes are a mixture of Spellbinders Snowflakes die and Christmas Decorations from the Range.

The Range snowflakes are irridescent and look so cool IRL and they were really cheap. A big thanks to Ju
for the tip. If you havent seen Ju's blog pop over and take a look she has some lovely creations.

Texture - Cute Daisy May DT

Hello, Monday's here again already, how quick does that weekend go?

But what it does mean is that it's time for another challenge over at Cute Daisy May which this week we're going Touchy Feely with 'Textures' as our theme.

I still need to make loads of Christmas Cards so this my piece this week is helping out the cause.

I have chosen this cute Daisy holding her Poinsetta and coloured her with Copics. You can pick her up from Linnie Here and for those of you who may be a bit strapped for cash with xmas just round the corner, dont worry Linnie has put up the most adorable Elf which you can download for FREE. (I can't believe I didn't see him before he is a def must have lol).
I added fluffy stuff and glitter to her coat and dried it with a heat gun.


The ribbon is felt which I got last year and totally forgot I had Duh! Flower is a mixture of Petaloo and Hero Arts. I used my dot folder in the cuttlebug for a bit of extra texture.

Thanks for looking and I hope you will be taking part this week - I cant wait to see what you come up with. Oh and by the way Linnie is looking for a Guest Designer.

Apologies to anyone I didnt get round to seeing last week was having a bit of a computer meltdown.

This cute little guy is from Whimsy Stamps. I have coloured him with Distress Inks. I used my distressing tool around al the papers and used Vintage Photo Distress Inks on the edges.
The papers are from the set I got at Costco's. Ribbons are Anita's. The bone and paw prints I stamped and then triple embossed.
Nope you aren't seeing things the sentiment is upside down - I will sign the 'fession' yep it was a bit of a boo boo, but I kinda liked it - it sort of goes with the quizzical look on that dogs face.
