Happy New Home!

Hi everyone!

For some reason, this card didn't post when it should have, despite
my post being scheduled! I apologise if you've been waiting for it!


Here I am again with a little card to share!
This is my DT inspiration for the challenge over at
 QKR Stampede 

It's another CAS card using the image

Cottage Digital Stamp Digi 17805

I used a digital paper & inked with Distress inks then coloured with my

Promarkers the colours are closer to the colours of the paper in real life

but sadly here in Scotland, we are short of daylight!

I used a circle die for the image & a shout out die for the sentiment

which was simply created on my PC.

I added a sheer ribbon & a couple of self adhesive gems to finish!

I hope you can play along in the challenge, which is always anything goes.

Each week, we select two winners  1 using QKR Stampede

 or Eureka Stamps image and 1 using any image!

I'm Back....... Again!

Hi everyone!

Here I am again with a little card to share!

I was recently invited to join the QKR Stampede DT .....of coure I just couldn't say no!

Those digi stamps are just the cutest!

This is my simple little offering for you today!

To make my 6x6in card, I've used the following:-

Christmas Moose Digital Stamp QKR -digi20102

Merry Christmoose Digital Stamp Eureka Stamps-digi17801

I coloured the image using a mix of Promarkers & Flexmarkers 

with a little bit of Sakura Glaze on the lights

The papers are from my stash & are Papermania if I'm not mistaken.

I've also added a bit of ribbon & a few tiny gems from my stash

I hope you can play along in the challenge, which is always anything goes.

Each week, we select two winners  1 using QKR Stampede

 or Eureka Stamps image and 1 using any image!

This card was made with the following challenges in mind:

April Showers & May Flowers!

Woo Hoo it's Sunday & that means it's time for another new challenge at
The Crafty Pad!

This week it's once again "The A Team's" chance to WoW you
with their wonderful creations!

The theme for this weeks challenge gives you the option of

#168 April Showers Bring May Flowers and/or  Sketch
We want to see those flowers in bloom on your papers,
your images or as embellishments on your creations!

Here's my card

The lovely Leesa gave us this great sketch to work with.

I rotated it a quarter turn & changed the shapes a little!

I used an A5 card blank as my base.

The design papers I have used are from one of the brand new 

digital paper sets at The Crafty Pad Designs!

Meadows Lane Delight

The image I have used is Penny Pamper!

She's just finished having her "April shower"! Lol

As you can see there are flowers on her shower cap, 

towel & the bathroom rug!

The pattern on the base layer of design paper resembles flowers &

the matt of the script design paper's wording is about flowers in full bloom

I've added some flowers that I made using Papermania paper flowers 

which I scrunched up, inked & then layered using brads as centres.

The image was printed onto some smooth card,

coloured using a mix of Promarkers & Flexmarkers, 

using Spring Colours to match with the papers

& rounded the corners with a punch 

The sentiment was created on my PC using a font called LMS Hippy Chick

which you can download for free from here, There are little

flowers on the letters if you look closely!

I also added some sheer ribbon, with a double bow, a heart shaped pearl stick pin 

& some Green Papermania Mosaic gems to further embellish my card!

I hope you like it!

Now it's time to pop on over to  The Crafty Pad to check out the 

fabulous work by the ladies of Team A!

Don't forget we also have the Anything Goes With A Crafty Pad Image

challenge which runs all month! 

You can enter both challenges with the same project

if it fits the current theme & you've used a Crafty Pad image!
