Divas By Design DT

Hello! I've finally gotten round to posting my DT card for Divas By Design this week. Our challenge this week is to

 

ADD A NUMBER

My cute little teddies are from Bugaboo. I coloured them with Prismas & went for a rather CAS look. The sentiment & number die cut are by MFT.

I made this card for my little nephew. He doesn't turn 3 to Sept, but Yay! Go me for getting ahead, LOL!!

 

We are sponsored this week, by Bugaboo

 

Check out the fabulous creations of my fellow D-Teamies at the Divas By Design blog.

I am also entering this at Creative Inspirations where their theme is also birthdays.

So have you got anything fun planned for the Bank Holiday weekend. My sister & my little niece & nephew are over from France, so big excitement here. We don't see them nearly often enough. I'm also going to be reunited with my purse that I stupidly left at my Mum & Dad's. I haven't spent nearly as much money this month, but thank heavens for internet shopping, LOL!!

Whatever you are up to though. I hope you have a great weekend & the weather stays nice.

Thanks so much for looking.

Big Hugs,

Hello again! Back once again with a new challenge at Divas By Design. This week our theme is 

FLOWERS

I used this LOTV cutie who hasn't seen ink for a while. Shame on me!! She's coloured with Distress Inks & the papers are MME - The Sweetest Thing, Lavender. I haven't done anything with a vintage feel for ages & had fun with this. The dies are all Doo Hickeys & the flowers & seam binding are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

You can just see the Stickles I added for the mandatory sparkle that every fairy needs!

I hope you'll play along with us at Divas By Design this week. Pop on over to our blog to see the fabulous inspiration of my fellow D-Teamies. We all really enjoyed this one! We are sponsored by the wonderful LOTV too. Who wouldn't want to win some of their gorgeousness?!!

I am entering this at Stamp with Fun where their theme is 'Happy Birthday'. Happy Birthday ladies! Keep up the good work!!

At Deep Ocean Challenge, their theme is 'Flowers & Fantasy'.

I have also been playing Bingo at Papertake Weekly, using Blooms, ribbons & Gems.

At Creative Inspirations, 'Anything Goes', with an option of hearts.

'Anything Goes with Sparkle' at Totally Gorjuss so this also qualifies for entry there.

I am also entering this at Bunny Zoe's where their theme is 'Favourite Colour Combo'. I have to be honest, I don't have a favourite, it depends on my mood. But anything with pink in it will always be a winner in my eyes!

Wow! I hardly ever enter so many challenges, LOL!

Well that's all from me for now. Thanks so much for looking. Hope you're having a good week.

I know, I know two posts in two days. I don't know what's come over me, LOL! Actually I do. I swapped teams at Divas By Design & so it's my week again to show you what I've been up to. This week our challenge to you is to use

AT LEAST TWO DESIGN PAPERS

 The papers I used are Basic Grey - Plumeria; still amongst my very faves. I felt like playing with my somewhat neglected Distress Inks for this & I always love colouring LOTV stamps with them. I was going to add lots of flowers with this, but I decided it looked better on a more simple vibe.



So my fellow Divas by Design D-Teamies have been busy creating more gorgeousness for your delectation. Check out the blog & play along with us this week for a chance to win a surprise! Get straight on ver there to find out more!



 I used the fab sketch at Stamp with Fun for my layout. So I would like to enter this there.

At Lili's Little Fairies the theme is 'Food, Glorious Food', YUM!

So that's it from me for now. Hope you are all keeping well.

Thanks so much for looking,

Good Morning. It's been a while since my last post. It's so annoying when life gets in the way of crafting, LOL! But today sees the start of another fab chalenge at Divas By Design, where this week,

ANYTHING GOES

I have to apologise for the dreadful photos. It's so hard to get any decent natural light at the moment when I am at work all day. I made this for my hubby for our wedding anniversary. It's a Kraftin Kimmie image, called 'Happily Ever After' would you believe! I coloured it with Prismas & the papers are Prima - Fairy Flora I think. The embellishment is a little wooden heart with the word 'LOVE' cut out. I inked it purple & covered it with glitter. The photo does not really pick it up very well. 

I hope you'll join us at Divas By Design this week, where we are lucky to be sponsored by the lovely people at Nitwits.

 

So there you go for now. Thanks so much for looking.

Big Hugs,

ANYTHING GOES

I used this cute little Meljen's image, Dragon's Little Friend. Sorry the photo isn't the best, but he's coloured with Promarkers & the papers are old MME. Thought I'd keep this one simple as it's a male card.

Meljen's is our sponsor for this weeks challenge & my fabulous D-Teamies have been hard at work creating more wonderful inspiration for your delectation. Check them out at the Divs By Design blog. With such an easy theme you've no excuse for not playing along!!

So hopefully you're reading this OK. It means my scheduling worked. With a bit of luck I'll be topping up my tan in Spai,n on my holidays! 10 days of much needed R & R, as far as the boys will let me. To be fair I probably won't see much of Jack. Once we buy him a football & he finds a pitch, he'll only come back when he needs feeding! This is also the period of the year when you find Ben at his cleanest, as he spends all his time in the pool! I just need to make sure I've got a good book!!

Well that's all for now.

Good Morning. I've finally found time to show you my creation for this week's Divas By Design this week where our challenge is

ANYTHING BUT A CARD

I made a little chocolate box. I took ages. By the time I worked out my measurements. After a lot of trial & error, I then ran out of paper & had to be quite creative, sticking bits together with what I did have left.

The image is from our sponsor, Crafts & Me & she's coloured with Prismas, with a little glitter on her wings. The papers are gorgeous Prima Fairy Belle. I also used a Doo Hickey die.

I hope you'll now pop on over to the Divas By Design blog, if you haven't already done so to see the fabulous creations of my fellow D-Teamies. We are sponsored by Crafts & Me who are offering our lucky winner 6 gorgeous digis.

I am also entering this at Stamptacular Sunday, where they are having a 'Freebie Week'.

 

I also used the fab sketch at Crafting Life's Pieces, though I just realised I did not add a sentiment so I hope it still counts.

 

So that's all from me for now.

 

Thanks so much for looking.
