Sunday Sketch & Stamp

Good Morning, so sorry I have been so quiet - trying to do 1000 things as per usual - this year so far has been a nightmare with technology…. TV went crazy, Printer head went and then - well the laptop had a meeting with a glass of water :( BUT its still working so we can breath!! 

So I'm here today with this weeks challenge over at Sunday Sketch and Stamp we have a wonderful sketch for you made by Carol 

We also have a fantastic Sponsor 

Bugaboo 

They are offering our winner a selection of digs of their choice!

What a fantastic prize!

So over to my creation, this week with all that happened I found quite a few images that I have coloured up and 'stashed' away for some reason… and so I have decided to use one of them this week :) Please let me introduce to you 

Love Letters Kaylee

She is one of the few Some Odd Girl stamps I have as rubber :)  I have to admit that I kinda forgot about her what with my rubber stamps being stashed away under loads of other boxes - but now she is out and I can't wait to use her again! 

I believe that I coloured the image with copics, the papers are all from my 'offcuts' box, the bunting was cut on my cameo, the 'Be Mine' was printed via the Silhouette Studio. 

I do hope you like my creation - I would like to enter this card into the following challenges;

Brown Sugar - Anything Goes

Craftitude - Anything Goes

4 Krafty Girlz - Anything Goes

Thanks so much for stopping by, I do hope if you have a moment you will leave me a comment, looking forward to seeing your creations :)

country boy....

Morning all, I'm finally back with you today! I know its been so long and I have had such withdrawal from everything crafty and blogland - but family and life had to take a bit of time from me :)  Had a lovely time away with the whole family - but glad to be home at the same time!!

So I'm here to share with you today a lovely PND image called Country boy Owen, he is available from the shop here.

Now I will confess that I made this one a while ago - so all I can really remember is that it was loads of pens and lots of stash!

I just think he is total adorable and perfect for any little man in anyone's life :)

I promise you all I will be back soon and may have a surprise up my sleeve :)

Hugs

A dream is a Wish….

Good Morning! Happy Mothers Day to you all! Today will be spent mostly visiting people and then chill out tonight I think! So I have been a busy bee the past couple of weeks and so need to get into the craft room to tidy it up! I will try to get some photos of it posted on here for you really soon!!! 

Anyway I'm here to share a card with you that I made a few weeks ago using the beautiful Zoe that came with the colouring long hair MIC colouring book - now if you haven't seen me rave about these before then you will now! All three books are fantastic and so very helpful - I would recommend to anyone!

The image was coloured with copics;

(Will come back with the colours for the dress!)

All the papers are from my stash and the sentiment 'A dream is a wish your heart makes' is from a set of Tim Holtz stamps I have.  Well I hope you like her! I had lots of fun colouring her up and finishing this one off! I would like to enter this card into the following challenges;

It Must Be Love

Morning all, i am so sorry that I have been so quiet - I have had so much happening here and trying to get ahead of myself is becoming an impossible task.  Since getting the desk into the room I have done nothing but move stuff all the time and I never seem to settle for more than 5 mins! Hopefully I will get settled in soon :) 

Anyway I'm here with this weeks challenge over at Creative Creations Challenges - we had a fantastic turnout once again for the last challenge - so thank you to all that joined in - we hope to post the winners this time next week!!! 

So this challenge is sponsored by 

Emerald Faeries 

and the theme…. well rather obvious really!!! 

*It Must Be Love*

So your card or creation can be anything, Valentines Day creation, Wedding Card, Engagement… the list goes on! Now the DT were fortunate enough to have some images to work with and I know we all had lots of fun with them! so here is my creation…. 

I do apologise for the picture - I can't find the normal camera since moving all my stuff but as soon as I can I will get a better photo! The image is coloured with copics now as I did it in a rush I can't remember too much information! The sentiment is also from the shop - I decided that I wanted to do something different to valentines day so used the engagement theme!!! 

Well I hope you like my creation, remember pop over to see what the rest of the DT have made!! 

See you soon

shhhh its coming!!!

Morning! I think I am getting towards the end of playing catch up and having more time to play! My goodness have I been a butterfly recently! I don't know how but I have achieved quite a bit (and even managed to do the house work!) 

So A couple of weeks ago there was a FAB release from Simply B Stamps! now its a Limited Edition release so you need to get over there pretty quick to snap it up - they retire 27th September  2012! 

I would like to introduce to you Bride of Chrisenstein Betty 

She is SOOOOO Lush! I enjoyed ever moment of colouring her.  She was coloured with copics 

Sink and dots - YG000, YG03, G97, G99

Dress - W1, W2, W3, W4, W5

Im really getting into colouring green skin - a few weeks ago it was something I never thought I would tackle and I didn't really want to - but I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to try different combos now! 

The papers are all from EP Chillingsworth Manor - Available here and the red netting is from a very good friend of mine! I can't wait to use more of it on other creations! I also used some Memento Bamboo Leaves around the edges of the papers after distressing them with my SU distressing tool. 

I hope you like my creation - remember you only have until 27th September 2012 to grab these digs!

The same but different?!

Afternoon, yes its been a quiet week for me... well for my blog.  

I have had poorly children again! and then had to finish some wedding invitations (the photos should be up in the next couple of days for them!) and then a mad rush for other cards too, as well as people asking me to take my cards to the school and ballet and... well I think thats about it! 

This is going to be rather a quick post but thought I would update you with what has been happening! Well after finishing the wedding invitations I needed to make a couple of cards for Amelia as she has a party today for two of the girls at school.... and yes I cut it tight on time again! 

So I decided that I was going to use the same image for both of the girls.. and the same papers... and the same layout..... and then I coloured them, I was going to do them the same... but I couldn't its not something that I can do, I don't mass produce, Im a one man band and I like things to be different... Even if it is just the colour of the tops! I did feel very bad for making these so much alike! 

I didn't even note the colours that I used as it was so late and I just wanted to get to bed! So they were two very quick and easy cards.  Im quite happy with how they turned out... but disappointed in myself for not making more of an effort! But I can't change that... and the girls liked them! 

I hope you like them, Im hopeful to be back with some more creativity later! 

See you soon
