BUTTERFLY BIRTHDAY

Happy Sunday everyone,
I am trying to find my Mojo recently plus having a massive clear out in the house :-) I had to make a rush card order for a friend yesterday, so at least I had a bit of craft time.
I made this card after being inspired by a gorgeous one made by SABRINA . I have linked up her name so if you click you can visit her :-D

I used an ivy stamp from Dimension Fourth for the background and kind of shadow printed it, and I used the reverse cut out from a die cut at the back. The butterflies are clear stamps from INKYLISCIOUS and everything was stamped with Whispers Archival ink in Rich Plum. Butterflies were coated with Stickles for a bit of bling.

Thanks for dropping in folks and I hope to get a bit more Blog active soon :-D x

OSAAT #248 - ANYTHING GOES WITH HALLOWEEN COLOURS

Hi there,
Here I am late posting with my DT piece for this Fortnight's Challenge over at ONE STITCH AT A TIME #248 - ANYTHING GOES with HALLOWEEN COLOURS.

The Sponsor for this weeks challenge is StitchyBear Digi Outlet with the October image and papers prize pack.    

Hi there,

This time I got to use "KOSTUME KIDS - SPOTTY DOG" by ALIPEEPS at StitchyBear Stamps.

I coloured him with Promarkers and edged his card with orange ink.

The background papers are from Echo Park Paper Co. 6 x 6 papers - 'The Apothecary Emporium' set.

I also used Whispers Archival ink in Butterscotch and Black.

I hope you will pop over and see what my OSAAT DT sisters have done and come play along with us.

Thanks for dropping in. :-D

SCRIBBLES DESIGNS CHALLENGES DT PIECE

Hi Peeps,
I have been having problems this end so am a little behind with posting my DT piece for our latest Challenge over at SCRIBBLES DESIGNS CHALLENGES  # 34      - FANCY FOLDS of SHAPED CARDS.

I have used    Freebie Friday SPOOKY CAT  Ms W ITCH, and BAT and Freebie PENNANT.

From Accordion and Gatefold Cards to Sidestep and Z-Fold Cards, there are so many different types of fancy folds or shaped cards to choose from.  Most of us get into the rut of sticking with traditional square and rectangular cards.  While these standard shaped cards serve their purpose, it is time to challenge ourselves and try something a bit different.  This month we want to see you practicing different card folding techniques or at least presenting us a card with a different shape, such as a circle, bottle, cake, or baby onesie shaped card for example.  It doesn't matter what kind of fancy fold or shaped card you present.  As long as it is NOT square or rectangle, it will qualify for this month's draw.  So, what will it be?  Double Tent, Easel or  PoP UP? Or maybe you'll go with Candle shaped, Scallop edged, or Christmas ornament shaped?  This month thinking outside of the box, may actually  be a box!  We can't wait to see what you come up with!


I hope you will pop over and play along at SCRIBBLES DESIGNS CHALLENGES #34.

SCRIBBLES IS SPONSORING :-)

Good morning Peeps,

SCRIBBLES DESIGNS is sponsoring Challenge #330 over at CUPCAKE INSPIRATIONS and I have made a little DT piece for the showcase.

Since it is a cupcake inspired  challenge, I had to have one of those on there but the little Pup has a decision to make..... Cupcake or low fat bikkie ????  Hmmm - not much of a decision there eh ?!!  LoL

Here is the inspiration photo and colours...

I have used a previous Freebie Friday image from SCRIBBLES - "Cupcake",  another Freebie "Dog Cookie" and "Puppy Pea Pod" as my main image. All images were coloured with Promarkers in colours to match the inspiration picture on the cupcake and bikkie. The background is paw prints ( not sure where I got that one from) and then I cut the diet words from a magazine advert and used my teeny Studio G alphabet stamps to do the sentiment.

OSAAT CHALLENGE #247 ANYTHING GOES WITH THINK PINK

Hi Peeps,

Here I am with my DT piece for our latest Challenge over at ONE STITCH AT A TIME. Our theme this fortnight is #247 - ANYTHING GOES with THINK PINK.
This time I got to work with " THE WINK " from STITCHY STAMPS. 
Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month we are all going PINK.

I coloured her with Spectrum Noir pens and then cut her out and placed her onto a background I made especially for this (sorry it looks a bit pale in my photo ).

You can snag one for yourself down below if you like. The paper says  "Think Pink, Wink Wink "

Here's a FREEBIE paper.  (Right click to enlarge and then Save).....

Here is the Prize Pack for this fortnight's Challenge :-)

You have 2 weeks to play along with our Challenge and I hope you will pop over and see what my Teamies have made too :-D

Thanks for dropping by and happy crafting weekend to you xxxx

OH, BUT IF THAT WERE TRUE .... :-D

Hi Peeps,
I found this FREEBIE quote page on MEINLILAPARK. It's her new one from last week on her CAT BLOG. and I had to use it  because it made me laugh :-D If only this were true, I would be swanking my way down a catwalk in Fashion Week somewhere  bwaahahahahaha :-D


I used it with my new STAMPENDOUS brand new stamp - "Feline Curious".
I coloured the kitty using Prismacolour pencils and touches of Promarkers, but I smudged the bloomin' stamp whilst blending my pencils with the white spirit !!!. I had gone too far to start again, so there it is !!!
I printed the background twice and then cut out the quote and raised it on foamies. I fussy cut the kitty and put him on foamies too.

I just LUV gingers, so of course, he had to be a ginger :-D  I think he would fit as being in Autumn colours - don't you ??!

Thanks for dropping in. :-) xx

SCRIBBLES DESIGNS CHALLENGE #33 - GOOD LUCK.... MIDWAY REMINDER

Hi Peeps,
Here I am with my 2nd DT piece for the Midway Reminder of our current Challenge at SCRIBBLES DESIGNS CHALLENGES #33 - GOOD LUCK.

For many, September is a time of new beginnings.   Many families have children headed back to grade school.  Others have grown children en route to college or university.  Then there are those who may be starting their first full time job or just moving into their very first apartment.  These are all great reasons for wishing someone good luck.  You may have another reason to share words of good fortune with another.  Whatever the occasion, this month we want to see projects wishing someone you know good luck.  Everyone could use wishes for a little good fortune now and then!

My card uses Papers and digis from the PUPPY POWER MINI MISH MASH COLLECTION. available from SCRIBBLES DESIGNS.
I coloured the kennel and Dog with Bone using Promarkers. I decided I wanted him to be a Spotty Dog LoL
The papers are layered up and I drew some faux stitching.
The Good Luck was cut using a Silhouette cut-out. The New Home bone was drawn by hand and stamped with my mini Studio G alphabet stamps.

So - you have until 15th October 2015 to play along with us, but I will be back again with a new creation to show you at the Midway Reminder posting :-D

Thanks for stopping in and I hope you will come along and play with us. There are plenty of FREEBIES from Sandy to use, if you browse through SCRIBBLES DESIGNS.

ME BEING CUTESY :-D

Hi Peeps,
Here I am.... what you say ??? ... it's YOU ?????
YES - it is me doing a cutesy in October - the scary, witchy, Halloween month bwaahahahahaha

I was delighted to be asked to be GUEST DT for JULIA SPIRI and got to choose one of her super cute little girls to work with. Naturally I plucked one with a kitty.... called "Girl With Cat" :-D
Here is my GDT piece for  the JULIA SPIRI CHALLENGE #3, which is an Anything Goes challenge - the twist this time, if you want to,  is Add some Bling. 

I coloured her up with pencils and Spectrum Noir pens and my background papers and kitty face (I added a sentiment) are from MEINLILAPARK.... where she has some amazing FREEBIES - you have to check her out :-) She even has a Freebie Blog devoted to just KITTIES :-D  :-D
