Divas By Design - Stamping

Hello again! Did't quite have time to post this this morning, but better late than never! I'm back with my DT card for Divas By Design where this week we have a nice simple challenge for you,

RUBBER STAMPS
(ie. no digis)


I'm loving these cute 'James' bear images for LOTV. My hubby doesn't really do cute so much, but this was perfect for his Valentines card. He's coloured with Distress Inks & the papers are Glitz design - Happy Travels.


You need to pop on over to the Divas By Design blog now to check out the wonderful cards made by my awesome D-Teamies. Our lucky winner will receive a prize kindly donated by our fab sponsor, Sir Stampalot.



I would like to enter this at the Lili of the Valley challenge this month where the theme is ' Name that Tune'. Mine is 'This old Heart of Mine' by the Isley Brothers.

At Deep Ocean Challenge, 'Love is all Around'.

At Totally Gorjuss, they've been getting 'Lovey Dovey'.

Well that's all from me for now. I hope you're all having a good week. My boys are at my Mum & Dad's for half term & I'm missing them so much Boo Hoo! On the plus side Paul & I can go out to the cinema tomorrow night, Yippee. Nonetheless, roll on Friday when I will see them again.

Thanks so much for looking.
Big Hugs,
Andie xx

Passion For Promarkers getting in Shape


Hello! Back again with a new card for Passion For Promarkers where, this week, our challenge has been set by my fab D-Teamie Shelly, who wants to see

SHAPED CARDS


This little Sugar Nellie cutie is adorable. My card style is much fussier than I normally bother with. I've gone for a shabby chic look, but I've still got some way to go to perfect it! The papers are Maja Design & the flowers, leaves & dragonfly are all Doo Hickeys, while the card shape was cut with a Go Kreate die. The card holder was made with a Joy Crafts die. I just realised I made a fairy without any glitter. I must have been feeling unwell when I made it!!


So time to pop on over to the Passion For Promarkers blog to see the awesome inspiration of my fellow D-Teamies. Our wonderful sponsor this week is DigiStamp Boutique who are offering our lucky winner a £10 voucher to spend there.

I would like to enter this at the Sugar Bowl, where I have partially followed their colour scheme, (sufficiently I hope?!)

At Papertake Weekly, their theme is Lovely Layers.

So there you go for now. Hope everyone is keeping safe in the awful floods. Fingers crossed the worst is behind us. Thanks so much for looking.

Big Hugs,
Andie xx

Dying for a challenge at Divas By Design!


Hello! I'm back with my Divas by Design DT card. We've got another nice, easy challenge for you this week, to use

DIE CUTS


This is not actually the card I intended to show you today. It had to fill in after I sent the card I intended to use without taking a photo of it first, duh! It is however a very special card, as it is one I gave to my hubbie for Xmas. The fab Whimsy images are coloured with Distress Inks & the papers are Bazzill Basics - Believe. The heart is a Marianne die & the computer generated sentiment was cut with an MFT fishtail die.


Rather appropriately, we are sponsored by the fabulous Dies to Die For this week. 



Pop on over to the Divas By Design  blog to see the wonderful creations of my fellow D-Teamies. 

Hope you're having a good week. Stay safe in the storms. Wrap up, keep warm & keep crafting wherever you can.

Thanks for looking,
Big Hugs,
Andie xx

This little Saturated Canary cutie is called Cocoa. She been waiting so patiently to be inked up for ages. I couldn't let another winter go by without having a little play with her. The papers are MME - On the Bright Side 2 & the sentiment is from Memory Box. I'm going to get so much use from it, expect to see it a lot!


I hope you'll now pop on over to the Passion For Promarkers blog to see the wonderful creations of my fellow D-Teamies.
