So to be in with a chance is winning some gorgeous images by the very talented Krista make sure that you pop along to the SFTW challenge blog and enter your creation not forgetting to use some metal of course.

My DT card.

I have used a gorgeous Saturated Canary Image Called Nikki and teamed her up with some fab My Minds Eye Papers (Lost and Found blue). I used a Martha Stewart punch around the page set and a Sizzix die for the bunting. My metal is a sentiment that says "Cherish Friends". All of the other bits and bobs are from my stash.
 Sorry it is a short post this time I am running late for work. See you later.

Crafty individuals

I have used Wryn Grow a Little love for my card and she has been coloured using Copic markers. The gorgeous spotty paper is First Edition Blank canvas. I really when to town with the punching and die cuts. The flower spray has been cut using a Memory Box Die. The base has been cut using a Martha Stewart punch around the page set Floral Crochet  To get the coordinating flowers I used the same Martha Stewart punch on some scraps of paper and then just cut out the individual flowers and blinged them up with some pearls. The sentiment was a free digi down load from Tiddly Inks.

I do hope you like it and thanks for stopping by.

A Fairy Tail

Good morning it's freezing cold outside, our park still looks like something from the Swiss Alps and the local toy shop is doing a roaring trade in sledges!. Infact even our dog Bailey has taken a turn down the hill in the sledge and seemed to thoroughly enjoy it. So if you dont feel like venturing out into the cold Diva's by Design have a new challenge starting today and our fantastic theme is Fairy Tales. Our  kind sponsor this time is Bunny Zoes Crafts.

My DT Card

I have used a Saturated Canary image coloured with Copics for my card called Fancy. Dont you thing that she looks every inch the Fairy Tale princess?
The papers are Prima Fairy Belle. I cut the circular card base and chandelier on my Cricut. The sentiment is Lili of the Valley  and the brass key is from Creative Expressions. All of the other bits and bobs are from my stash

Thanks for stopping by

SFTW DT Something Girlie

Good morning it's time for another challenge over at Stampin for the Weekend. Our theme this time is Something Girlie so plenty of opportunity to use lots of pretty embellishments. Our kind sponsor this time is Live and Love Craft.

I have used this gorgeous image by Mo Manning called Bye Bye Girl and coloured her with Copic's. The red polka dot paper is My Minds Eye and the black polka dot is DCWV. Well you have to use polka dots for a lady but don't your?

The frame has been punched using a Matha Stewart punch around the page set called Cherish. I managed to get this set on sale for £19.99. The small flower I make using the Tim Holtz Tattered florals die. The ribbon and lace I found at the bottom of my trimmings draw (who know what else could be lurking in there! I really must try and organise it one of these days.) 

To finish it all off I attached the cute metal lady bug (I have no idea where this came from but iseem to have several of these and some butterflys in my collection)

Thanks for Stopping By

Some exciting news!

Good morning everyone. I have some really exciting news that I have been bursting to tell you for the last few weeks but have had to hold on until now. The lovely ladies and gentlemen over at Sketch N Stash have kindly asked me to join their team and I simply had to say yes. I would like to say a big thank you to my new teamies for having me.

Enough gushing and onto the challenge.

Sketch N Stash Challenge
Challenge 105 with and optional Vintage theme. This challenge is being sponsored by Live & Love Craft who are offering the lucky winner a £10 gift voucher.

 For my card I have chosen to flip the sketch and use Prima papers from the Almanac collection. I distressed the edges and then used a little picket fence crackle paint for an ages effect. I cut the frame using my trusty Cricut set at 5.25 inches. the cartridge used was sentimentals. The pretty butterfly and the tape I simple cut out of some scraps of paper I had left after making the base card. You cant quite see from the photograph but my wooden sentiment at the top says delightful and this too is from Prima. The lace is from my ever growing stash and the flower is Kaiser crafts. The image in the frame is a stamp by Stampers Anonymous from the Tim Holtz collection.

I do hope that you like it.

SFTW DT Card

Good morning every one and a very happy new year to you all.
Its time for our first challenge of 2013 over at SFTW and the theme is Anything goes. Our lovely sponsor for this challenge is The Stamp Fairy Shop, who are offering a $10 gift certificate for our winner.

The papers used this time are GCD Studios Ella Blue. The cute image was kindly donated by The Stamp Fairy and is called Mimi Teddy 2 ....i'snt she cute? I have coloured her with colics in my new favourite color combination. The rosette was my first attempt at one of these and I must say that it tried to get away from me a few times. I ended up having to have help holding it down while the glue dried!
The ribbons and sentiment are from my stash and the shaped card is a blank from Craftwork Cards

Any way thanks for stopping by and it would be great if you could pay a visit to my talented teamies over at SFTW

Hugs

SFTW DT Card

Good morning  fellow bloggers. Now I know that you are all very busy what with Christmas being only 4 days away (where did the year go!) but it's time for another challenge over at SFTW. It's nice and simply because we have gone with everyone's favourite anything goes. Our generous sponsors the time are The Pretty Little Ribbon Shop and Bugaboo. You have until the 3rd of January 2013 to submit a project so once that Turkey has gone down why not have a little me time and enter the SFTW challenge

So here is what I produced for this challenge and I am sorry to say it is another Christma Card but I had so many to make this year that it seemed a shame not to show them!

I have used the very last of my Christmas lost and found pad for this one. Once again I have used my cricut to cut the card base from the sentimental s cartridge. The flower which I have used a lot lately was cut from the flower shoppe cartridge. The gorgeous image is Lilli of the Valley coloured in Copic's.

Wishing you all a very merry Christmas.
