When I saw the sketch for this weeks I wasn't sure I would take part as I love my square cards but this was so easy to follow and fit so well with the 4" x 8" challenge! I decided as I normally "do" dark haired girlies I would have a go at a blonde - aint she lovely!

ABC - J is for.....

This is my DT card for this week's challenge on ABC - J is for jagged edge. Now I'm not a rip/tear fan so I thought I'd just do the centre border but then cut the outside of the frame of my image with deckle edge scissors.

ABC - I is for .......

This is my DT card for this week's challenge on ABC - I is for inside.

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge #21

This is my DT card for this week's challenge on Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge. This week we have a theme set by our lovely sponsor Wendy of "Transport".

To be honest I was a little stumped with this one until I remembered the love stamp I had bought from Elzybells and not used! The papers are from Basic Grey "Sugared" with the card being paper pieced and coloured with promarkers. The flower border was a freebie stamp and added stardust pen and pearls.

Double Challenge Card

This is a double challenge card

1. Friday Sketchers #40 - sketch layout
2. Basic Grey #23 - colours pink & brown

The image is Whiff of Joy coloured with promarkers with papers from Basic Grey "Sultry". The centre shap and corners have been cut on Cricut using "Storybook" cartridge with stickles added afterwards. Gems are from my stash.

Hope you like.

Mojo Monday #74

Sorry not been posting much lately but my crafting mojo seems to have gone AWOL! I have made this card using this week's sketch on Mojo Monday Challenge Blog and it seems to have spurred me back into action!

Not done one of these sketches for while but just loved this layout and couldn't wait to use my new Nesties! I used my nesties in cuttlebug and have cut out the base layer then missed one size and used a much smaller inner layer and quite pleased with the effect.


The papers are from Basic Grey "Sugared" with Cuddly Buddly image coloured with promarkers. The background of the image is stamped using "Field of sky" stamp from Stamp Addicts. The greeting stamp is also from Cuddly Buddly with gems, ribbon and brad from my stash.

Hope you likey :)
