                                                   Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today. 

I am sharing my second DT card of the day.

                  This is for the Critter Crazy Challenge where anything with a Critter can be used.

                                                                                        


This card was made using a new Woodware stamp - Carlos Chameleon designed by Francoise Read
Papers are Woodware Time to Party



Do-Al(l)-Kreatives #109

                                                Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today

This is the first of my DT posts which I have to share today.

This is for Challenge #109 at Do-Al(l)-Kreatives where the theme is to make a flag card or for anything goes.




I hadn't made one of these before so I followed a tutorial by Jan B from 2019
I used stamps from a recent release by Julie Hickey Designs - Solids #1, Natures Garden #1 and #2 and for my sentiments I used stamps from Beautiful Blooms and Circle Sentiments.
The paper is from Stampin Up and I used Memento inks in Tuxedo Back, Elderberry, Lulu Lavender, New Sprout and Pistachio.
The flowers were coloured with alcohol markers.

SSW2 Sketch 316

  Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today.

I am sharing my first DT card for our latest challenge at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.  The challenge is still open until the 6th of January so if you have an hour or so to spare it would be lovely if you could come and join in with us.
Here is my card using sketch 316 which is perfect for a quick card.


and here is the sketch.

I have used a very old Lili of the Valley image from the Mini Masterpieces sheets they did in the dim and distant past, I think this was sheet 20.
I think the paper is from My Minds Eye, the ribbon is definitely Stampin Up and the gold pearls came from Dreamees.

I am entering this at Allsorts Challenge Blog Challenge 839 using the Anything Goes option.

Critter Crazy #105

   Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today. 

I am a little late with my post this month as I was unwell last week and so got a little behind.

                  This is for the Critter Crazy Challenge where anything with a Critter can be used.


I made this Easy Star Fold card for a workmate who had a birthday last month,
Cardstock is from my stash, I cut down some Craftwork Cards card blanks so that all the white matched.
The  sentiment is Made to Surprise All the Sentiments
Papers and focal image of Snoopy are from a paper pad which came from Craft Stash before they closed down.

I have another prominent sentiment on this so I am going to enter it over at Allsorts where the theme is Focal Sentiment or Anything Goes

DAK 108 - Ladybirds or clover

   Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today

This is the first of my DT posts which I have to share today.

This is for Challenge #108 at Do-Al(l)-Kreatives where the theme is for Ladybirds or Clover so a Good Luck theme, there is always the Anything Goes option too.


To make my card I used a Bugaboo image - Scene it Ladybugs which I coloured with alcohol markers.
Papers are Basic Grey Euphoria and the pearlescent green card and sentiment came from Craftwork Cards. So more vintage stash used.
