And finally for today this is my card for the Just Magnolia Challenge which was ribbons and bows and of course a Magnolia image. So here is my card all purple colour theme with this cute image of Magnolia with her cup cake. I have used purple dotty papers and dotty ribbon which I threaded through some little heart buckles. Finished off with some samll bows and a metal disc sentiment Smile! and fastened on with yes you've guessed purple ribbons

And so to another card and another challenge this one is for Cutie Sunday challenge. A lovely simple sketch and I have used a Joanna Sheen stamp and sentiment and its so typical of many of us I would think lol. I have used some spotty paper, used Pro markers to colour in the image and some green flowers to finish it off.

Hereis my card for Sketch Saturday, I have used one of my new stamps from the Sugar Nellie range, she is so cute. I have coloured her in using my Pro markers mat and layered her onto navy card and then on to some paler blue card. Used some co-ordinating papers and a sentiment. I have taken some flower border and stuck some pearlised dots onto this and finished it off with some small blue flowers.

My Crafting Sunday!!!!

Yesterday my daughter Lindsay and I decided instead of having a day out in the bank hoilday crowds we would stay in and craft and do lots of challenges and what a great time we had and according to my youngest son made a right mess in the lounge oh well, we had a good time anyway. So here is my first card. This is my card for My Time to Craft Challenge the theme was to have a beverage in the image, so I have used a stamped image of two friends meeting for a coffee, I have added some funky paper and a couple of Prima flowers with the sentiment Ladies who lunch.

Cutie Sunday Challenge

Here is my card for Cutie Sunday Challenge. This image is one of my new Kars stamps they are so cute and I have now 4 sets of these and it's all my daughter Arlines fault as she bought me a set when I was laid up to cheer me up and now every time I see a new set I buy them! I have used all christmas time colours as I thought I would get started and try and get enough cards made this year. I have used Pro Markers to colour her in and used this lovely paper which I also found in my box from last year. I have used a couple of christmas greetings and some paper flowers on the corners. To add a bit of glitz I have put some red glitter on her ribbons and dress and some green on the holly. Thanks for dropping by.

Just Magnlolia Challenge

Here is my first challenge for Just Magnolia Challenge the theme was Friends. The base of my card is some funky large spotty card which I love but can't remember where I got it from, thats the trouble when you haven't used your stash for so long! The stamped image is the Magnolia couple just about to give each other a friendly kiss. I have added some colourful daisy chain ribbon, a large purple daisy from FloraDoodles and a lovely sentiment about friendship. Thanks for dropping by.

Sketch Saturday Challenge

http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com/

This is my entry for Sketch Saturday Challenge. I have made this card for my friends daughter who will be 16 this week and it's very girly don't you think. All pinks and purples. I bought this stamp just before I had my fall so haven't used it until now, the hippo is so cute having her bath with her little duck. The zig zag paper is out of my new DKWV paper and card stack I have just purchased, with some vouchers I was given. Its yummy. I have added some self adhesive lace along the bottom and some purple gem stones and added a sentiment on it. Thanks for dropping by

Friday Sketch Challenge

Hi this is my first challenge for some months as I have had a fractured wrist but hopefully I will be up and running now. This is my card for The Friday Sketch Challenge. I have used a cute image and used Coppic markers to colour it in, using greens and oranges. I have used some Bazzil bling for the base and some papers from my scrap box. Some gingham ribbons and some small Prima flowers complete with a sentiment. If you have dropped by thanks for looking at my revamped blog

Have had a revamp!

Well yesterday I did a revamp of my blog, not too sure about the colours yet but will see how it goes. I changed it to give me some inspiration to get crafting again, as I have just gone back to work after suffering a broken wrist some 16 weeks ago and haven't been able to do much up to now, especially crafting. It hasn't stopped me buying but hopefully will now be able to get round to using all my lovely new stamps and cds I purchased whilst in a plaster cast. And now I will get back to the challenges too.
