Sugar

Hello there, I can't believe it two cards this week, must be doing something right. lol. not really I've hid my ironing again. There is a wonderful sketch over on the Sugar Bowl challenge and the "please include" is to use Kraft colour or brown and cream, my cream is more of an apricot, but I hope it counts as the prize is the new Gorguss girlz 3, so I've used my brand new stamp, never been inked before , gorguss girl thought it might be a good omen, coloured her with my copics and used prima flowers, K&Co paper, nesties and the ribbon and brad is from my stash. Hope to get back over the weekend,

Pony

Hiya,well what a bad blogger I am, just havn't had a lot of time recently, but I've managed a card tonight, whew!!!! it seems like an age since I've managed anything, but back with a vengence I've done two challenges in one here, the sketch is from Just Magnoia a couple of weeks ago I liked the look of it so kept it for future refrence, I have a spiral note book and copy any sketches I really like into that then if I get a mental block I pull out my book and wholla I'm all inspired again, this one is by the lovely Rach. Stamp with fun wanted us to use Dots and I have plenty of those, the baking paper is a K&Co and te Magnolia Pony has dots aswell. Roses on paper just wanted flowers and for us to combine the challenge with another, that was easy.lol. I've used my nesties,prima flowers and I'm also trying to get to grips with my few copics I've brought they are certainly taking some getting used to, think I'm being a bit heavy handed actually, trying to rush to get as much done in a couple of hours as poss. Hope to be back on Friday, but you never can tell these days, God Bless.

Car

Evening, didn't think I was going to get a card on today as my son and DIL have come home for the weekend, my sister had given me some paper racks and I had to dismantle some shelving in my bat cave and I'd dumped loads of stuff in my spare room, so I had to clear it all out so they had somewhere to sleep. Its great to see them . last time was back in February. Well enough waffling I've used the great sketch from sketch and stash, the stamp is a funstamp that i hadn't used for ages, it also fits the cupcake challenge for man or boy and the colour scheme from pink elephant which was light blue, with either mid or dark blue , green and white. The papers are from a pack of my minds eye.
hope to be back tomorrow.

Belli Challenge

Hello, I'm so excited, I'm the Guest Designer for the Belli Challenge Blog for all of May.

With so many talented artists on the design team I was so nervous to get it right, in the end I wickled it down to two cards but couldn't decide which one I liked best so sent them both to Chris and asked her to help and choose one for me.

The brief this week is to make a girly or spring card using the Stamping up colours Apricot Appeal, Certainly Celery and Cameo Coral. If like me you don't own any Stamping Up colours you can choose anything you have closest to those colours. I've used a couple of stamps from the fantastic Stamptivity.
I've really enjoyed myself and can't wait for the next challenge.

Please pop over and take a look at the DT cards and have a go at this great challenge

See you soon
