Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge DT


Good Morning Peeps! Apologies for posting this a little late. I'm at my paprents house at the mo & have had a few issues with internet access. Anyhoo, onto our new challenge at Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge this week, where the wonderful Francesca has chosen our theme of

BRIGHT & CHEERFUL 


I had a blast colouring this Saturated Canary beauty & kind of confused 'cheerful' with colourful, but I think that's OK! She's coloured with Promarkers & the papers are Basic Grey - Sugar Rush. The flower was created with a Spellbinders die.


I hope you'll hop on over to the Secret Crafter's blog to see the fabulous inspiration of my fellow D-Teamies. Looks like they had fun with this challenge too. This week our lucky winner will get a $15 voucher to spend at Heather's Hobbie Haven's lovely online store.


I would also like to enter this at Crafting Life's Pieces where I used their fab sketch for my layout.

At Simon Says Stamp, 'Anything Goes'.

So there you go. Did anyone else manage to sit through the Olympics opening ceremony last night. It did look fantastic on TV, especially the Daniel Craig part!! Here's hoping Mark Cavendish can win gold today. Not sure I will be watching the 6 & a half hour road race in it's entirety, but I'll certainly be willing him to victory!

That's all for now though. Thanks so much for looking. Have a great weekend.

Big Hugs,

Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge DT


Welcome to the weekend! Time for another challenge at Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge. This week, gorgeous Bridget has chosen out theme. She wants to see cards that are inspired by
OLYMPICS or SPORTY


My son Jack, had to do a project about the
Olympics & it's history last term. The ancient Olympics & the torch lighting ceremony inpired my card. I used Aphrodite from Tickled Pink. She's coloured with Promarkers & the papers are Prima - Natures Garden.


The light was poor when I took these photos. Her hair is not so orange IRL!

I hope you'll now pop on over to the Secret Crafter's blog to see the fab inspiration of my fellow D-Teamies. We're sponsored, this week, by The Stamping Boutique who are offering our lucky winner 3 digis from their online shop.




I am also entering this at Simon Says Stamp, where I uused their fab sketch for my layout.

Have you heard? the weather is supposed tobe nice this weekend, hot even & the sun is shining. Whatever you are up to I hope you are able to make the most of it. I'll probably gardening. With a ll this rain the back garden has gotten a bit out of hand! It looks terrible, I don't know where to start. So that's where I'll be anyway!

Whatever you are up to. Have a great weekend.
Thanks so much for looking.

Good Morning happy Crafters! Time for another fab challenge at Passion For Promarkers. This week, the wonderfully talented Jane has chosen our theme of


DOWN ON THE FARM 



I don't have much in the way of 'farmyard' stamps, but I thought this little Bildmalarna cutie might fit the bill. I'm not quite happy with the way this turned out though, her face looks slightly freaky & over orange! Love the papers however. They're Prima - Songbird. I covered the larger birds with Glossy Accents & sprinkled Glamour Dust over it.


So time now to pop on over to the Passion for Promarkers blog to see the fantastic inspiration of my fellow D-Teamies. Our lucky winner this week, will receive a £10 voucher to spend on the multitude of goodies at Joanna Sheen.

So, there we go. Not much to report at this end. Thanks so much for looking.

Merry Xmas at Divas By Design!


It's never too late to start getting cracking with your Xmas cards. With that in mind, at Divas By Design, this week, we're celebrating

XMAS IN JULY


I've had this little Sugar Nellie cutie for ages, but never got her inked up last year. She's coloured with Prismas & the papers are Echo Park, I think. I can't find the pad right now to check. The big snowflake is a Spellbinders die with a mini flower punch. An idea I loved when I saw it on the wonderfully talented Camilla's blog.


So I hope you'll now pop on over to the Divas By Design blog to see the the fab inspiration of my fellow D-Teamies. We're thrilled to be sponsored this week by the lovely people at Pink Gem Designs.

Passion For Promarkers DT


Long time no see! Or at least it's felt that way!! But I'm back with my new card for this week's Passion For Promarkers challenge. This week my wonderful D-Teamie Donna has created a fab sketch for your delectation.


I have resisted for ages, but finally succumbed to getting a few Saturated Canary images. This is the first one I inked up. I love colouring hair & this one was just so satisfying! I think she's called Cerridwen. The papers are Bo Bunny - Gabrielle. There is Glamour Dust on her dress & the little butterflies for a touch of sparkle.


Here is Donna's great sketch. Can't wait to see what you make of it. Head on over to the Passion For Promarkers blog to see the gorgeous creations of my fellow D-teamies.

This week's lucky winner will receive a stamping set, kindly donated by our wonderful sponsors, Letraset.


So there you go. It's been nearly a whole fortnight since my last post, so you think I'd have something interesting to tell you. Actually I do! We went to see The Stone Roses on Saturday night & they were just fantastic! I have to say I witnessed quite a few eye-opening things that night. I guess I've led quite a sheltered life! I saw some sights I really wish I hadn't, but it was worth it.

That's all for now. Hope you're having a great week.
 Thanks so much for looking.

Big Hugs,
