Basic Grey - Hearts

This is a quick card I made for the Basic Grey challenge. I used a paper sheet from the Sugared paper pad, which has been fauxed stitched. The image was a rak (sorry I can't remember who from I think it may have been Jacqui) which I have coloured in in promarkers. The ribbon is from stash as are the gems. The flowers are prima and the charm is from mad cow beads. I hope you like it x

Whiff of Joy - Recipe

It is a receipe of 3 patterned papers, 2 flowers and one brad only on WOJ this week. This gorgeous image is a RAK of Cathy. I have coloured her in using promarkers and then cut her out using my nesties and mounted onto black card stock. I have used 3 papers from the Basic Grey Ambrosia pack which is currently on my desk, time to switch for a different pack I feel now as all my cards have looked the same the past week. The flowers I have doubled up and used a single brad as the centre piece are from prima. I have doodled the edges as I enjoyed that on my last card and is a change from my favoured faux stitching. I hope that you like it. I may glitter the wings at a later date depending what I use the card for.

Spoonful of Sugar - doodles

What a lovely challenge it is on Spoonful of sugar this week. Here is my entry which is my valentine's day card for my wonderful husband. I have used a stamp that I received for christmas called hoo hoo there and coloured it in with promarkers. I cut it out using my nesties and then used the rememiments of my WOJ card from last week, for my papers - how good am I? I have doodled x's and ~'s around the edges of the papers and also handwrite the sentiment. I hope you like it.

ABC - A is for Anniversary

This is a beautiful image given to me as a RAK by Jane I think. I have used it as an Anniversary/valentine card. To match the skaters (coloured in promarkers and glitterglue) I have used papers from the pink christmas DCWV paperstack and pink basic card. The lace is from stash as is the sentiment and the snowflake. I hope you like.

OMG will have to get some candy organised- thank you all xx

Sketch and Stash

OMG you would not believe how bad the light is today - this was taken in daylight - eek, have taken a small under electric light but the congratulations sentiment in gold metalic has not shown up. Ok what is new - the ribbon is from American Boutiques and is yummy and the flowers from Blooms go Belle (which was a birthday gift of Lyndsey). The image is Sugar Nellie Postbox and the papers are K and Co Life Journey - I hope that you like it x

Whiff of Joy

Gosh I had real problems with this sketch, I just could not get the elements to balance. It is more cluttered than I would normally do in a card and you cannot see much of the beautiful papers which is a shame. I have also had to cut down the image as it was just too large. I really need to start making my own cards as 140x140mm are just too small for the images around at the moment. The papers are basic grey ambrosia set, and the flowers prima. The image is a RAK of either Becky or Cathy as both have sent me this. Lace is stash as are brads, sentiment doodled by myself. I hope you like it.

Z is for ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

This is my DT card for ABC, I have kept it very clean and simple and everything used is from Stash so I am sorry I can't remember who what is by. The image was a RAK of Cathy.

Feeling very low and blue today so just a short post.

Dutch Dare Thank you

Sorry not a fantastic photo but the light is appauling here. Not my best card by far but at least I have made a card an improvement on things to date. The image was a rak of Cathy and the transfer papermania I think. The paper is basic grey I am not sure which pack as it was a loose sheet I found sorting out my stash. Ihope you like it x

Whoops I first posted this on ABC - doh!

Cathy pointed this one out to me the 6th photo in your 6th album.

This is Edward coming home from hospital aged 31days, weighing 4lb 9ozs (2.07kg). I have added the next one in the folder as it is so cute too - I hope you like x

Apology

I never made the ABC this week due to both boys teething and being very ill and a migrane - so sorry will make it up to all my DT members I promise!

Spoonful of Sugar - Card for preschooler

This is a simple card I made for one of Edward's friends whom is 4 this week. I have kept it simple as it is for a boy and also children like to play with their cards so too much embellishments I feel are a waste. The image is Maggie and Hamish playing on the rocks which was a RAK from Cathy I think. It has been watercoloured in and then mounted on paper from my stash, sorry I have not got a clue who made it. I have doodled around the border stars and dashes and then added 2 gem stars. I really like it, I hope you do x

ABC X is for X on the card somewhere

I did this card before christmas for the challenge as my Nan had a bad fall and it was only after I received a card from Cathy I realised not only had we used the same stamp for this challenge but also pink! The flowers are from prima, large peach set and I have added pink gems to the centre. Image is of course Sarah Kay, my sweet Lili, which has been watercoloured, then mounted and cut using nesties. The ribbon is stash and crosses behind the image and the paper is from Laura Ashley.

I hope that you like it and will join us this week.
