Bows and ribbons

 Hey guys,

I am still moving house so do not have most of my crafting materials easily to hand. However, I did manage to colour an image from our lovely sponsor All Dressed Up, for the reminder post at Creative Moments.


I coloured this image with Promarkers and will make her into a card as soon as I am back on my feet. In the meantime I hope you find some inspiration over at our blog.

April Showers Bring May Flowers

 Hey guys,

It was my turn to choose the theme over at MAWTT, and as we are moving into May I want to see all those flowers that have been created with the April showers.


It is still difficult for me to access my craft supplies as I still haven't been able to move in to my new house. However I managed to throw something together with this little mouse that I coloured with Promarkers.

I simply fussy cut the image and backed onto a patterned paper I had in my little stash, which was from a unicorn paper stack.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenge:
TheCardConcept #206 April Flowers (The bouquet of flowers and pastel colours inspired my card)
SweetStampin' - Animals
SimonSaysMon - Feminine
PFP #737 Feminine
SimonSaysWed - Feminine

Cute and cuddly?

 Hi guys,

I managed to make a quick card for the reminder post over at Creative Moments, even though I still haven't managed to move into my new house yet, so don't have easy access to my stuff.


I used a pre-coloured image from Beccy's Place. I then fussy cut the image. I folded a Kraft card blank into an easel card, added a strip of patterned paper and an 18 key for the base, and peel-offs for celebrating either side of the image.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Fancy Fold

 Hi guys,

We have a new challenge over at MAWTT where we want to see your fancy folds - either for your card, or maybe for your toppers.

My card was created using a kit from a magazine I got a few years ago.


I used the card blank and arrange various toppers to create the scene.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
AYLI - Fav fancy fold - I like the stepper cards as they allow you to have slightly different papers/colours/accents, look funky and are really easy to do
SimonSaysWednesday - Anything Goes
ThePaperPlayers #683 Tic-tac-toe - using the flowers/thank you/pastels row (as I didn't have ribbon to hand


Do pop along to the blog and see what the rest of the DT have created.

Flora and fauna for spring

 It is time for our challenge winners and reminder post over at Creative Moments, which means I have made another card for our flora and fauna theme.


I coloured the image using promarkers and then fussy cut. I used a scalloped heart (X-cut dies) cut from lilac patterned paper to produce a background for the image. I then die-cut the butterfly from self-adhesive vellum. To finish I added some hessian flowers to the bottom corner.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
SOS #518 Spring has sprung
MTTC #530 Multicoloured florals
CRAFT #713 Easter/Spring


Thanks for looking,

Use the rainbow

 Good evening,

We have a new challenge over at I Love Promarkers, with an optional theme of 'Use a Rainbow'. I chose to make a rainbow with my sentiment, and also use some rainbow pattered backing paper for my interpretation of this theme.


The sponsor for this challenge is Polkadoodles and I have used ' Bananas about ya' for my card. 

I coloured the image using chameleon pens, and also used these to create the rainbow sentiment - I simply used red, yellow, blue and purple to make the rainbow. I fussy cut the image and then added to my rainbow backing paper that was layered onto a 6x4 base card.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

SimonSaysMonday - Food/drink (The Monkey has a banana, and banana is also in the sentiment)

allsorts #772 Feathers/Fur

SundayPostcardArt - Stars (on the rainbow backing paper)

Thanks for looking,
