PuddleJumper ~ Darla....Have a Great Day!

A card featuring a *new* PuddleJumper digi image called 'Darla'

from LORi Boyd Designs today :)

Love this new cutie with her wavy hair!!

I have coloured the image with promarkers and prismas and mounted it onto a couple of ovals cut with my Nellie Snellen dies, I have embossed the blue one for more dimension.

I have used the fab sketch #57 from Sketch & Stash for the layout....my new stash is the image :)

I would also like to enter ~

I had a fabulous day over at the PaperCrafts Boutique in Elgin on Saturday demoing the cute range of Fizzy Moon stamps......it was great to see and meet so many local crafters.....hello to you all if you are visiting my blog :)
Lots of photos to share!!

I love my 'cute' stamps and this new range from Dovecraft is fab.....such a cute bear and gorgeous papers, ribbons/brads/decoupage/chipboard and die-cuts to match!!

I really enjoyed making the samples and colouring in the bears with my promarkers :)
I tried to make a few different things too, a double easel card, a shadow box card, corner bookmark and a wine tag!
Here are some more photos of my samples...

The samples below are Fizzy Moon stamps and the 'Sugar & Spice' pad from Dovecraft.

I would like to enter this card into the 'Flowers for Mum' challenge #125 over at Secret Crafter Saturday :)

Here is the wine tag on display in the shop....I did'nt take my camera so I have 'borrowed' this photo from the Sugar Nellie blog!
