Penny Black Saturday January Challenge......

Morning!! and a Happy New Year to you all :)
We have a new challenge over at Penny Black Saturday......
'January Blues'.....
so any theme etc. just stick to the colour blue!

I have used this gorgeous floral stamp from PB and simply stamped it in Tumbled Glass distress ink, stamping an extra one to layer up the large flower. I have inked the edges and stamped the sentiment in the same ink too. 
I did no colouring as I think the flowers look nice and fresh as they are :)
A nice fresh start to 2013!!

There are 3 fabulous prizes to be won this month........check out the blog for all the details and to see all the gorgeous 'blue' DT projects!

Thanks for looking xx

Merry Christmas!!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas........have a wonderful time xx

I Love Promarkers #148 ~ Anything but a Square....

Morning! Not Christmas today :)

There's a new challenge at I Love Promarkers........'Anything but a Square'

Any theme just no squares :)

This challenge will last 2 weeks and take us into the new year, so plenty of time to join in during the Christmas holidays!

We are sponsored by Marianne Designs and there's a wonderful prize for the lucky winner.

For my card I have used the 'Sprinkle with Love' stamp from Sugar Nellie.......so cute! Not very original I'm afraid with it's shape! but it's not a square :)

The image is coloured with promarkers and prismas, mini punched flowers with pearls added and the papers were freebies with a craft mag, they are Christmas papers actually!!

Do check out all the DT cards over at the blog.....there's some great & different shapes to inspire you!

I am entering my card into the 'Pick of the Year' challenge at PaperTakeWeekly.......I chose 'For the Girls' from March 2012 :)

Little Apprentice....

Today I am sharing a card I made for a Handmade card swap over on the Sugar Nellie group's Facebook page :) My swap partner has received the card now so I can share :)

I have used an ever so cute Sugar Nellie stamp called 'Little Apprentice'. The image is great fun to colour and I've gone for a traditional red/green colour combo but I think the gorgeous papers from Echo Park make the card look modern. Love these papers.....love stripes and spots :)

I am entering my card into Charisma Cardz #49 - Christmas Makes.....

I have one more Christmas card to share :) and then back to the norm........birthdays etc.
