Truly Scrumptious

My last day off for the next few weeks so I thought I,d get Hollies card done. Over at Truly Scrumptious they have a lovely sketch and the theme was Think Pink, Perfect for Hollie her room is Hot Pink glitter paint so this card is so her.


Another Anya image and lots of glitter, some Doodlebug papers and Basil card I,m really happy with how it turned out and am making a matching gift bag for her new phone which she has no idea I bought for her.

Christmas without Red and Green and Pollycraft Monday Challenge

Hello there, I,ve not had a minute to myself to do a post for weeks, Got a few cards made though so will be posting them over the next few days.
The first card here is for a challenge over at Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenges, Its to make a card with no Red or Green in them, and heres my take on it. I also am entering this card over at Pollycraft Monday Challenges where the challenge is to use the colour Blue. I didnt follow any sketch just wanted to use this strip of felt snowflakes that I,ve had for years.

I love this image and I have seen this on an all white card which was just stunning, may have to have a play with it.

Happy Crafting, Back soon.

Fussy and Fancy DT Call

While checking out the challenge blogs I came across Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenges DT Call, this is something I,ve thought about for a while, but never had the nerve to apply, but You never know if you don't try so here goes, I have picked three projects to show and although it was difficult as I but a lot of love into all my cards I finally decided on these three....







The first is a recent easel card with such a cute Magnolia image coloured with Distress inks and lovely Basic Grey papers.

The next another Magnolia card but this time coloured with water colour pencils and some (or lots) of distressing, with Basic grey papers.

And finally a flap card another Magnolia (I just love them) image this time coloured with SU inks and Doodlebug papers with lots of sparkle.

I included a poem which I wrote for my niece.

Well I hope you like them and fingers crossed the lovely ladies over at Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge blog will too.

Just Magnolia

Hello, Hope everyone had a great Halloween weekend we had a great time, two party's and trick or treating last night was lots of fun, the kids are really into Halloween not sure why they just enjoy scaring people I think. Bless them.

On to my card, Over at Just Magnolia is a fab sketch that \I,ve used to make a friends Christmas card, I,m determined to be organised this year and hope to send only hand made cards, not sure how many I need yet but the pile completed is growing so here's hoping..

I,ve had these papers and beads in my stash for years so thought it about time to use them up just not sure who they are.

Hope you like it.

Pollycraft Monday Challenge

Hello I,m back from my surprise holiday, I really love the fact my husband can still surprise me, for my birthday a few weeks back he had booked a 5 day break in Benidorm, and we were going alone, My first child free holiday in 11 years (I really deserved it), and we had a blast what I can remember of it anyway.

My first challenge back is Pollycraft challenge with a lovely sketch to follow and although the awful pics don't show it I love this card such summery colours(i,m missing the sun).

If you have,nt tried digital stamps before theres really are sweet, these faires are from the Lilybean set, such cute images, and as they are digital you can size them to suit your project.

Love them.

Right off to bath the children, of the joy of kids.

Just Magnolia Challenge

Good Morning, Its a lovely sunny day here, which makes a welcome change from the constant rain we,ve all been having lately.
I,ve worked all weekend, covering someone so have had only a few hours craft time, only managed one card but I loved making it so am a happy bunny.
Over at Just Magnolia its 'Anything Goes' which was good as I already knew how I wanted this card to look.

I have no idea which papers these are but they are gorgeous, and I even used my distress inks for some colouring, I really struggle with these have thrown lots of attempts away, I can only get better I suppose.

Cute Card Thursday

Had some spare time this morning so searched for a sketch to inspire this card, I had the image stamped and knew which papers I wanted use, I love these Lemonade papers from Basic Grey, just had no inspiration to get crafting.

The sketch at Cute Card Thursday was perfect not too fancy as I was short on time.



Here's a closer view of the image so cute.

Just off to iron the school uniforms for the week a job I hate.
