STAMP SOMETHING

(Digis count too)

I used this darling little cutie from Meljen's Designs. She's coloured with Prismas & the papers are First Edition - Spring Feast. The flowers were cut with a Tim Holtz Alterations die.

I hope you'll pop on over to the Divas By Design blog to see the fabulous creations of my fellow D-Teamies. We're thrilled to be sponsored by Meljen's Designs this week.

So there you go! I'm off to work now. It's killing me to be inside when we're having this gorgeous weather. Who knows, this could be our summer & I'm stuck in the office. But only till 3! I hope to get a nice spot of colouring done outside later! Whatever you are up to, have a lovely day!

Thanks for looking.

SPRING

I used 'Lenny' from The Stamp Fairy for this card, with MME papers. He's coloured with Prismas. The papers looked quite masculine, so I kept the embellishment simple.

Sketch & Stash DT & belated Secret Crafters

Yoo Hoo! I'm still here! I just needed to take a bit of a time out from blogging & crafting. You know, life stuff getting in the way! But I've got two cards for you today. My first is for Sketch N Stash where our lovely Angie has designed a fab sketch for your delectation.

I've used another Tiddly Inks image. This is Wryn & Wren. It's just too cute! They're coloured with Prismas & the papers are from the new Bildmalarna release. Believe me, they're even more gorgeous IRL.

This is the sketch for you to follow. Pop on over to the Sketch N Stash blog to see more wonderful creations from my fellow D-Teamies.

 

Join us this week & you could win a £10 voucher to spend at My Mum's Craft Shop. They stock a wealth of fabulous goodies! 

 

My second card is my rather belated DT card for Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge. This week, the wonderfully talented Tamara has set the challenge. Her theme is

SHABBY CHIC/VINTAGE

for this card I used one of the new designs at Whimsy, by Elisabeth Bell. I reverted to my Distress Inks for this one. Boy am I out of practice! The papers are First Edition & the flowers were cut with a Tim Holtz Alterations die.

Over at Secret Crafters we are thrilled to be sponsored to be sponsored again by Heather's Hobby Haven, who will give our winner a $15 voucher! Go check out the fab creations of my fellow D-Teamies, if you haven't already done so.

Sketch & Stash DT

Good Morning one & All! Are you ready to face a new week? Here's something to brighten your day. It's time for another new sketch at Sketch N Stash.

 

Apologies for the quality of these photos. Can't wait for the clock to go forward & I'll be less dependent on artificial light. Somehow, I missed this gorgeous Tilda in the Christmas release & I just had to get her. She's coloured with Prismas & is such a cutie. My papers are K & Co - Julianne & the slightly wonky sentiment is by Tina Wenke for Stampavie.

So here's our fab sketch, designed, for your delectation, by the marvellous, Michelle.

Michelle is also, very generously, sponsoring our challenge this week so I hope you'll play along with us to be in with a chance of winning this fab prize.




I am also entering this at Just Magnolia where the theme is Blue & White.

At Simon Says Stamp, they want to see Mother's Day/Special Girl cards.

Well, that's all from me. Thanks so much for looking. Have a great week.

Big Hugs,

Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge DT

It's the weekend. The days of the week I live for! Especially as it time for another challenge at Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge. This week it's lovely Linda's turn to choose our theme & she wants to see cards where there is 

NO IMAGE, JUST WORDS

I don't mind admitting I felt a little daunted by this one, especially as choosing & colouring an image are what I enjoy most about cardmaking. But I kind of like how this turned out. As my Stempelglede quote is from Thoreau & wanted to the rest of my card to reflect a love of nature. The papers are Bo Bunny - Gabrielle & the flowers were cut with a Tim Hotlz Alterations die.

I hope you'll now pop on over to the Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge blog, where my fabulous D-Teamies have some wonderful inspiration for you. We are thrilled to be sponsored by the Digi Doodle Shop. Our lucky winner, this week will receive a $10 voucher to spend there.
