Happy 30th Birthday!

Thank you to everyone who entered our last challenge at Hooked On Craft Challenges! All the entries were wonderful! Now, onto our new challenge; our theme this month is 'cards for men'. I find making cards for males really challenging becuase I just want to cover everything with glitter and flowers! For my card I decided to not use an image but to make a feature of the sentiment and patterned paper. The bling on my card (I couldnt resist using a little bit of bling!) is from Hooked On Craft.


Please join us over at Hooked On Craft Challenges for our 'cards for men' challenges!

Here is my card:

I sent this card with homemade gingerbread cookies and a matching tag:

Close up of my tag:

A Gorgeous Girl!

Here is a card I have made featuring one of the Gorjuss stamps and she is called 'bear skin'. I just love these stamps! I have coloured her with copics and added some glossy accents. I created my butterfly by layering two Memory Box dies; 'Darla' and 'Vivienne'. I made my big love heart using a Spellbinders die.

Lilly Filly!

Hello everyone and welcome to another challenge for Whimsy Stamps! We are now doing monthy challenges at Whimsy which is great becuase you have more time to make fabulous creations! This month our challenge theme is 'lots of layers'. For my card I have used one of the amazing digis designed by Crissy Armstrong called 'lilly filly'. I adore Crissy's images and this one is one of my favourites! I have coloured her with copics and added some glossy accents. My gorgoeus postcard was created using one of the awesome vintage postcard stamps from Whimsy Stamps and I embossed it with gold. I inked the edges of my design papers with 'tea dye' distress ink then I embossed the edges with gold embossing powder.

Please join us at Whimsy Stamps for our 'lots of layers' challenge!

Honey Bee!

Congratulations to the winners from our last challenge at Bizzy Becs Challenges! Now we are onto our August challenge and our theme this month is 'spots and stripes'. For my card I used one of the cute stamps from C.C. Designs and she is called "honey bee". I have coloured her with copics and added glossy accents. For my butterfly I layered two dies by Memory Box and my floral border is another Memory Box die called "summer border".

Jungle Jewels!

Hello everyone, today we have another challenge at The Craft Garden! For this months challenge we are taking inspiration from jungle jewel tones and a gorgeous photo of elephants. For my card I have used a cute elephant which I cut out using my cricut and some lovely embelishments given to me by the lovely Kerry from The Craft Garden.

Please join us for our jungle jewel tones challenge!
