Sunday Sketch & Stamp Birthday Blog Hop!!!

Morning! I hope you've all remembered that the clocks went back an hour last night - I never like losing an hour but at least the night's will be a bit lighter now and that means that summer's coming!!!
There's a new challenge today over at Sunday Sketch and Stamp and because we've reached the huge milestone of 200 sketches, we decided to have a bit of a celebration with a blog hop, some special guests and lots of prizes.
We've made cards using any of the past sketches and I used Sketch # 195:


and here's the card I made with it:


The sketch is there - under all those embellies! I've used a Magnolia image (watercoloured with DIs) and papers, a Whimsy sentiment stamp, the lace, charm, envelope and corner are all from Live and Love Crafts, the flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts and I've used two Magnolia Doohickey dies, and an Impression Obssession die as well as the usual Spellbinders, plus gems, etc from my stash. Hope you like it!

Now for those of you taking part in the hop, you should've arrived here from the wonderful Pops, (if you didn't, you need to go back to the challenge blog and start at the beginning). Make sure you leave me a comment in case there's a prize hidden here and now you need to carry on hopping over to:


Enjoy the rest of the hop and the rest of your weekend. Bye for now.................xx

A Quick Kiddie Make!

Evening. Here's a quick card I made to add to my stash for the younger children that my friend's and family have! It was a quick make - I used a pre-coloured image from Digistamp Boutique with some Papermania papers and added some dies cut with my MFT die-namics and that was about it!!


I've followed the sketch over at Digi Sketch Challenge and I'm also entering it into Digistamp Boutique's monthly customer challenge. That's it for now - must dash otherwise I'll miss the deadline for the challenge and Dancing on Ice is on!! Bye for now, my lovelies..............xx

Creative Creations DT

Morning All! A great start to the new year - I've been invited to join the team over at Creative Creations! For my first challenge, it was the nice and simple 'Anything Goes', and here's my card:

I must admit to being really pleased with the way this card turned out - when I take the time to watercolour images with DIs, I usually prefer the way the card ends up but I tend to reach for the alcohol markers more often than not because of time constraints!!
For this card, I've used a LOTV image, LOTV stamped sentiment and LOTV/Nitwits papers plus a spellbinders die, wooden heart decoration from hobbycraft and pearls/hearts from my stash.
And I'm sure you've heard about the good/bad news in challenge blog land? I was really disppointed to read that there would be no more Sweet Sketch Wednesday cos I always love their sketches!! But then, I discovered there's Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2!!!! This card also follows the first sketch over there!
OK - that's it for me for now! Don't forget to go and join in with the challenge over at Creative Creations, there's no excuse not to join in 'Anything Goes'!! Have a good day.............xx
