Welcome Christmas into your heart

I created this cardfor the latest challenge over at 




Sponsored by Sentimental Susan



I used the image Christmas Bells which can be found in the Sentimental Susan shop.

I coloured this image with Copics and fussy cut it to place on my card.
I placed the cardstock stripes on the card base to look like ribbon on a present.
The sentiment I used is from my stash of Stampin' Up stamps.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Holly Jolly this week.

Wishing you weren't so far away...

I created this card for the latest challenge over at 



Sponsored by Beccy's Place

I used the image Garden Silhouette which can be found HERE in the Beccy's Place shop.

I used chalks to create a background for this lovely silhouette image
I punched a circle out of post-it-note paper for the moon and stuck it down and chalked around it.
The blue sky is a little darker in person...funny how the flash of my camera makes it look less night-like.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Craft Your Passion (CYP)  this week.

Enjoy your day

I created this cute card for the latest challenge over at 



Sponsored by My Besties


I coloured this cute image to match this two-tone doily I had.
Don't you just love the pink/purple colour combo? 

This week's challenge is "Use a Doily" and when I created this card I didn't take into account the size of the image I coloured verses the card-base...so you can barely see the doily.  Sorry.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at CAGI

Hello


I created this cheery card for the latest Progressive challenge over at 

This image is FREE if you played along in April (which I didn't) but I purchased it anyhow as I loved it so much, so this means in June, I will get a new FTHS image free to play along in the next monthly progressive challenge.

The image is called Hamlet Pigwit in the Planter and can be found here.

I coloured this with copics and just love the pink and red colour combo.

I had a lot of fun with this image, and hope you like how my card turned out.

Birthday Stars

I created this card for the latest challenge over at 




Sponsored by Lemon Shortbread


I used the image 80's Star Girl which can be found HERE in the Lemon Shortbread shop.

I coloured this image with copics and did stitching around all the bits on the card (with the exception of the star).  It is a labour intenstive thing to do as i have to hand pierce the holes first then stitch as I don't have a machine.
