Crafters Companion Challenge

I would like to enter this card into the Crafters Companion Challenge No 19 - New Beginnings.

The rubber stamp is by s.w.a.l.k from Crafters Companion and I have coloured it with Promarkers.  I love the characters that s.w.a.l.k. have created and they are so versatile.  The purple paper is one of my favourites from Craft Creations. I finished the card with a few purple pearls and some ribbon.

I have promised myself a nice tidy house for the new year, so I really should go and make a start. . . . there again, I really do need a lot more practise at colouring!

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

This weeks Penny Black Saturday Challenge is to make 'A Tag'

The rubber stamp is from Penny Black and this cute little hedgehog is called 'gift hedgy'. I have coloured it in using promarker pens. The gorgeous swirly red paper is from Craft Creations and the die cut ponsettia was made using a marianne creatable die. I have just added some holly leaves, a piece of ribbon and a bit of bling!

Well, it's nearly Christmas, and I still have food to buy, presents to wrap and a house to tidy before the big day. I have two young very excited children who can't wait. I'd better go and get some work done!!

Happy Christmas everyone!

LOTV Challenge : Pink, white & silver

I would like to enter this card into the Lili of the Valley Challenge this week. I have been following this blog for ages but never actually entered. How sad that it is the last one, I have loved looking at all the entries, there are always some fabulous cards.

The gorgeous rubber stamp is 'Twinkling Star' from LOTV as is the sentiment stamp. I used promarkers to colour the image and added a die cut snowflake, some silver stars and gems.The papers are from my stash and I think they are papermania.

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

This week's challenge is 'white out', and I would like to enter this card. I've only just started using rubber stamps so my colouring isn't great! The stamp is called 'Royal Mail' and I think that the hedgehog is ever so cute! I covered the post box with glossy accents in the hope it would hide my colouring mistakes!

Craft Creations Competition

I'm absolutely chuffed to bits - I've just found out that I've won a runner up prize in the latest Craft Creations Competition. I love their classic decoupage papers, I used the singing snowmen for this card.

This is the first time I've put anything onto a blog - sorry for the poor photo!
