Do You Like Surprises?

Good afternoon bloggers, do you fancy a bargain?

I was roaming around the blogs I follow & I came across this!

Sarah Wright is offering a surprise package of goodies

from her craft room clear out.

The mystery parcels could include  papers, ribbons, stamps dies,pens, gems etc

Some of the items may have been used & some brand new.

Each package is different.

Mine is in the post & I'll let you know how I get on but I'm sure I won't be disappointed.

If you don't know Sarah's Blog, you should pop on over & check it out!

Thanks for stopping by!

A Freebie & A Chance To Win A GDT Spot

Good Morning Happy Bloggers!

It's the second Wednesday of the month & that means at 

Dude Time Doodles

Win A Guest Designer/Freebie Challenge.

You pick up the freebie on the challenge blog.

create something astounding & humorous for a Dude,

Here's my creation!

This months Freebie in honour of the Olympic Games is 

Jimmy Gymnastic!

He's fit! He's already in the store too, so if you've missed the freebie,

you can still get him!

I made a little fold back Congratulations card!

The papers I have used are part of The Best of British Collection

which came free with Crafts Beautiful magazine.

The image was coloured with a mix of Promarkers & Flexmarkers.

I inked the edge of the image panel & added dots with a flexmarker which 

I hope  look like little spectators in a crowd! lol

This is the panel on the inside.

I attached some of the bunting on foam tape for dimension.

The greeting was cut from the papers too!

If you're not familiar with the fold, you can see it better here!

At The Seaside!

Happy Sunday Blogging Buddies!

It's time for Team A to inspire you over at 

The Craft Pad this week!

The theme chosen by our lovely Pauline is

"At The Seaside"

Here's my card!

The images this week were kindly supplied by one of our sponsor's

The Stamping Boutique!
Who are offering a prize of 3 digi's from their store!

The image I have used is Girl Walking on the Beach.

A real stunner of an image!

I played with my Promarkers & Flexmarkers & coloured her up,

just to see where she would take me!
Which brings me to our second sponsor this week

Letraset
Who are offering a prize of this set of Promarkers

Well worth playing for!

Not sure I did the best job with the sea but I was rather pleased 

with the little crab! lol
It seems the little lady has gone to a Tropical Island!

For the layout I used the sketch from

The Deconstructed Sketch

I rotated it a quarter turn

I used an A5 card blank in pink for the base of my card.

I used a plain green paper to mat & the lush & beautiful  DP's were 

once again from a candy that I won ages ago &

 I have no idea who they are by!

I used a Martha Stewart punch for the borders.

The buttons are from my stash & the ribbon is recycled from a gift!

I decorated the inside of the card just a little bit.

I do hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by!

I hope to see you "At The Seaside" with The Crafty Pad this week!
