Something Magical



Here's a card I made a little while ago with the intention of sending it to a colleagues partner. However I ended up giving it to the colleague to use himself and made a different one from me.

I bought the stamp in The Range, it has a few other images on it and is by Avec I think. I coloured it with my copics.
The papers are Catherine Pooler - Cake and Confetti which I bought from Dies to Die For at Stamp Magic last year, strange to think that we would have been going there this coming Sunday.
Sentiment is from an old Craftwork Cards kit and jewels are from my sparkles drawers.

I am entering this card at Allsorts where the theme is Something Magical

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 with Sheepski designs


We are sponsored by Sheepski Designs this month at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and Kathie has created two more sketches for us. I used Cornflower on both my cards, it's one of my favourite flowers.


I used Lili of the Valley papers on this on which are now discontinued, card is 7x7.


The papers on the 6x6 card came from The Works.

I've used my Gansai Tambai watercolours on both of them.

I am entering the top card at Allsorts where the theme is spots, stripes or gingham.

Thank you for visiting and hopefully I will be back soon

Something old, something blue



I hope everyone is well and coping with the current situation the world finds itself in.

So I was uploading some images to the blog this morning to use for future posts and discovered that I already had 70 cards in draft posts (oops!). Having a quick look at some of them I came across this one that I sent a friend for her birthday a few years ago and as it is her birthday today it seemed appropriate to finally publish it on here.

New year, old stash

Happy New Year!!!

We have a new challenge and new sketches for you at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 today so I will share my first DT card today

Here is the first sketch (incidentally no.174)


and here is the card I made



We are sponsored by Fred She Said, I love her images as there are both coloured and digital stamp versions and sometimes there isn't the time to colour although I am hoping to get more colouring practice in this year.

Recipe 
Image - Emma with Rosey from Fred She Said
Papers - Lucy Cromwell pad which I have had for years and Two Scoops from Bazzill Basics
Card blank - Craftwork Cards
Pearls - Hobby House

You will see from my recipe that there is a lot of old product in there, my mission this year is to use some of it up, we'll see how that goes lol!
