The Wrinklies Visit The Vet

Good morning lovely friends & bloggers!

Here is today's card,  it's a fun, A5 decoupage card!

The image & papers are from La Pashe

The Wrinklies CD-ROM 

Aren't they just tooooo cute!!!

I love these little characters, they are so full of fun!

You might just have seen them on C&C TV recently!

 I believe they were so popular that the CD-Rom sold out and some 

of you are still waiting for yours!

I used pinflair glue to build up the layers, then distressed the edges using 

some serrated scissors & Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Antique Linen.

I added a beautiful flower which was handmade for me ages ago

 by the lovely Lee, AKA  Crafty Loops! I love using the flowers she made

but I feel I have to keep them for very special cards!

The sentiment if from the CD-ROM too!

Here's the inside of the card. I used a pawprint stamp from my stash

to create the background paper.

or hit home then scroll down!

Here I am with my DT card for the second challenge at

The Crafting Cafe 

Our theme for the challenge this month is

Favourite colours!

I made this card for a very special lady who was celebrating a 

very special birthday last month!

Our very own lovely boss lady Nikki turned 40! 

(that's 40 exclamation mark, not 401 as it looks in my typeface!)

Whoop Whoop!

Luckily we share a favourite colour so it was easy peasy!

Our sponsor this month is the lovely Teri Sherman of

Delicious Doodles!

The team were all super excited to be working with Teri's fabulous images.

The image I have used is Steampunk Fairy

I think she's just absolutely gorgeous!

I've coloured her with a mix of Flexmarkers & Promarkers.

I've added some stickles to her wings for a bit of glitter!

My papers are Do Crafts & I've had them forever in my stash.

(I think I bought them when I attended one of Nikki's demos at a local craftshop!)

The cogs are die cut with Spellbinders Dies.

I  used my chalk inkpads to lightly distress,

The ribbons were chosen from my local fabric shop & the fabby little tiny

button brads were purchased at Southfield Stationers shop.

The font I have used is Ornatique & you can download it free here!

I can't wait to see what you create for this months challenge!

Best Seat In The House

Good Morning lovelies!

I have another card to share with you today!

The image is from Just Inklined.

The image I have used is called Best Seat in the House

The papers I've used are from Papermania,

I think the stack is call Boutique but I can't be sure as

I've had them in my stash for an age!

This handsome chap reminds me of a friends lovely dog & I was tempted 

to add a bit of drool but decided against it!

I coloured him up with promarkers then fussy cut him out!

I tried to make the papers look like wallpaper & carpet.

I added bit of  ribbon ( recycled from a top) where they joined as skirting!

When I was looking for some buttons to embellish, I came across

this one which I thought looked like a football!

The bow was lying beside me as I worked so that got added too!

(Another recycled ribbon from some handmade cookies)

The sentiment was printed out on a label printer.

Thanks for dropping in, it's always a pleasure to see you!

so much better in real life! Sadly,I can't take any

Little Village Church

Good Morning Bloggers,

Here I am again with another card for you!

Again, this is one of the new release polymer stamps from

Just Inklined which are featured on Create & Craft TV Today!

This stamp is called Little Village Church.

I'm sure this image will be suitable for so many occasions!

I've added a sentiment which I created from Psalms 118: 24.

The border was punched using a Tonic Border Punch.

Coloured with a mix of Promarkers & Flexmarkers then 

cut out with a Grand Nestie & inked around the edges with a

couple of chalk inkpads blending to get the desired shade.

The matt is vellum, which has been in my stash forever.

Here's a closer look at my sentiment.

If you'd like to use it please take it from below.

All I ask is that you don't share with anyone, 

please send people over so they can get it for themselves!

Thanks for looking & I do hope you manage to get hold of some of the new stamps!

 with their new release of Clear Stamps.
You will be able to buy these either individually or as part of a set.
Here's one of the cards I made  using the new stamps.

This little guy is called Just For You Boy!

I thought he was perfect for a Mother's Day or Mum's Birthday card

but I'm sureyou could think of a dozen other used!

The image is coloured with a mix of Promarkers & Flexmarkers 

then inked using liquid chalk inkpads. The letters are die cut & inked.

The papers I've used are Papermania 

I made the die cut flower using the Tim Holtz Tattered Florals Die,

& papers from the same pack. I haven't made many flowers but I was

 actually really quite pleased with how this one turned out!

There is a challenge for Tattered Florals here 

A last look at my card. As you can see I added some twine too!

I hope you like my card & I hope you manage to get your hands on

Spring Fashion at Just Inliked

Good Moning Lovely bloggers!

It's Thursday which means I have some Just Inklined inspiration for you!

This image is Spring Fashion

Such a beautiful vintage image, just perfect for all sorts of occasions!

I haven't added a sentiment as I thought you could use your own imagination

as to which occasion it might suit!

The paper is from my stash. I have no idea where it's from but I have to

say it reminded me of vintage wallpaper. I lightly distressed the edges with a pair of scissors

& inked with Antique Linen Distress ink.

The decorative edge was made using a Martha Stewart Doily edge punch.

I coloured the image with a mix of Flexmarkers & promarkers.

Lol! I did intend adding some tiny pearls to the buttons but looking at the photo's

 I guess I forgot! I might go back & do that later!

The flowers & leaves are from my stash, I've had those flowers forever!

Thanks for dropping in!
