Digi Chooseday - For the boys

Good morning!! Hope your all well and not feeling the cold too much!! Anyway thank you to everyone that joined us last week for the last challenge at Digi Chooseday! we had some fantastic entries!! So we have a new challenge this week, the team have some fantastic inspiration over on the blog so i do hope you will pop over and take a look :)

So the theme for the challenge this week is

For the Boys/Anything Goes

It been another fantastic week for inspiration from the DT, I do hope you will pop over and take a look at their creations!  So this week I have gone with the 'For the Boys' side of the challenge - a bit out of my norm!!  Girls are so easy to create for and buys… well yes I find them very awkward!! Bit this week i have managed it!! 

I have used the sweet Sugar Boys Download Bundle available here in the store.  The card was designed on the computer suing my silhouette design studio - I'm really enjoying making cards like this at the moment.  I decoupaged the owl and his eyes out a bit to add more depth - the button is also from the bundle. I added a little bit of ribbon from my stash to the back of the button before I stuck it down :)  

Well I do hope you like my creation and that I may have inspired you to join us over at the challenge blog this week :)  Looking forward to seeing your creations :)

Digi Chooseday - New Beginnings

Good Morning! wow where is time going, I can't believe that my little ones are back at school today!!! I can't believe were into 2014 by a week!!! Anyway thank you to everyone that joined us last week for the last challenge at Digi Chooseday! we had some fantastic entries!! So we have a new challenge this week, the team have some fantastic inspiration over on the blog so i do hope you will pop over and take a look :)

So the theme is week is

New Beginnings

Its been really nice to see how each member of the team interoperates this theme - so many fantastic ideas.  My take on this was 'Weddings and Marriage' when you get married I see it as a new beginning and so I have used the gorgeous Dolly Day Dream CD to create my card today.

this card really is a different one for me as it was all designed on my computer using my silhouette software - I then print and cut it on my machine and added the flowers and butterflies! Once I worked out what I was doing with the software it all came together really quickly!! 

I printed the topper off as an extra and layered it up to add more details.  All the flowers and other embellishments are all from my stash.  At first I really wasn't sure how this card was going to turn out - but I really like it now and can't wait to create more cards like this!!  I would like to enter this card to the following challenges; 

Amusing Challenges - new beginnings

CD Sunday - Pretty in Pink

Come and get It - Something New (The CD Collection is new)

Digi Chooseday - Thanksgiving for our US Friends

Digi Chooseday - All about the Craft!

Good morning! hope you all well! Im back this morning with the latest challenger over at Digi Chooseday, some fantastic entries to the last challenge!! You can check out the winners here on the blog :) 

So this week we have a nice and easy one for you… were looking for your creations that are…. 

'All about the Craft' 

Yep were looking for anything thats crafty… it could be the image, it could be the creation…. I know the DT have done an amazing job this week with creations so if your looking for some inspiration stop by.  So let me share my project with you this week…. I have used the sweet Emma Canning Colour me Happy Digi - I think a lot of us on the DT took a bit of a shine to her this week - there are so many images that are perfect for this challenge over at the store :) 

For this challenge I have made a present that I will be sending to one of my very good crafty friends this Christmas, I can't wait to send it to her!!  I have made a small wooden hanging sign.  I purchased the sign cut to size with the holes pre drilled, i popped to B&Q and purchased a little pot of matt paint that is a slight off white.  The wording is a fail from the SIL store cut from vinyl, some of it didn't cut too well but I didn't feel it needed those bits. 

I messed up a little and forgot that I could do the whole 'Print and Cut' on the cameo so I hand cut the image, oh my did that make my hand hurt!! The image was coloured with copics; 

Skin and Hair;

E50, E51, E53, E21, E93, E31, E33, E35

Top

Can be anything, Birthday, christmas, new baby to name a few…. so my creation for this week was put together for someone very special, someone who has a special Birthday coming up in the next couple of weeks…. I have chosen the big '21' for my idea this week. 

I have used the beautiful Fredericka Debutante Digistamp - when I saw her I knew she was just perfect for the occasion.  The papers are from xxx - I have had this pad there for a while - and at first I didn't think the colours were going to work - but I don't think they came up too bad!  The '21' is cut on the cameo.

This week we have  fantastic challenge for you! its all about the….

'Diva'

:) How wicked is that! It just so happened that I found a wonderful Emma Canning image called 'Foxy Friend' that reminded me so much of a friend of mine who soon celebrates her birthday (I'm sure she would LOVE a fox as a pet given half a chance!) plus I know how much she loves to have a notebook in her bag at all times and so I made her a notebook!! 

The image was coloured with copics and the papers are from my overflowing scrap box! the wording was cut on my cameo and the oval was cut on my big shot - the edges were distressed with Tim Holtz distress ink.  I also added some rhinestones just to give it a bit of bling :) 

Well I do hope you like my notebook - I would like to enter it into the following challenges;
