Good afternoon all...

Well what a glorious weekend.. Hope you in the UK have all been enjoying the sunshine and making the most of it, as it probably wont last (lol)

We have a great time at our caravan with my babys and step sons.. Not had much time for crafting this weekend. However  did manage to make this commissioned card last night.

Does not show a very good pictue. (try clicking on it for a clear view)

I have used a LOTV stamp for this card. Coloured in promarkers (almond, artic blue, pearl blue, powder blue, meadow green, leaf green). The Dp's are Papermania and Boofle.  The ribbon is from stash as are the buttons.. The sentiment is computer generated. I printed JACOB's name onto patterned paper and cut into bunting.. I added faux stitching round the DPs for extra detail..

Hope you like this card..

Second post from two (today)

Hello again lovely bloggers.... Me again!!

My second card for today is using another image from Bugaboo...

I have coloured her with promarkers...

I have used 1 ribbon, 2 papers and 3 flowers (there are also 3 flowers in the pot on the image) this is to enter the My Mums Craft shop challenge this week.. The DP were from my stash so not sure who they are by... I cut some bunting and added peel off.. The flowers are WOC.. The sentiment circle was a freebie from a craft mag.. I cut the digi stamp using my nesties.. Finnally I added a pearl brad in bottom corner and little gems to bunting and ladies hat for extra bling....  All the layers of this card have been added using foam tap, to add dimension.. (i think this can be seen a bit better in the picture below)

Good evening all.... Hope you are all well

It has been a gorgeous day here in my part of the UK again today... very hot and sunny.. I have my fingers crossed it will be like it the weekend.. Hope you have been enjoying the sun where you are.

A couple of days ago I was conacted by Bugaboo (catch the bug blog) to say I had came first in one of their challenges. My prize was 7 digis of my choice from Bugaboo.  As you can imagine i was over the moon with excitement.. I really adore the bugaboo characters/images. They are so cheerful and great to colour..

I have used one for this card....

I have coloured this little chap with promarkers (china blue, pastel blue, powder blue, ruby red, cocoa,tan, sandstone, blush).. I cut him out using my nesti's and my big shot...

I made a flag for him to hold using card from my scraps box.. The backing paper is from the portobello road range..

Teddy Bea....

Hello bloggers, hope you are all well..

We have had another lovely hot sunny day here in the Midlands..

It really makes you feel better about things.. My boys were straight into the garden after school.. I have still got the windows open it's great. Lets hope there are plenty more of these days on the way...

Right now onto my card for today.. And I do apologise but it is another Teddy Bo...

I just love colouring these in at the moment..

I coloured this gorgeous bear with promarkers.. I cut out using my nesti's.  The DP's are First Edition Desert Bloom. The sentiment stamp is from a Kanban set.. also cut out using my nesti's...
The flowers are WOC (of course). I finished with ribbon and little gems/buttons from my stash.

It is the first time I have used this colour combo. I like it has worked really well, what do  you think?

Good evening all..

Hope you are all well and have had a good start to the week.

The weather today has been great, really warm and sunny.. Lets hope it stays around for a while..

My card for today is using a new stamp that I received recently from Practical Publishing.

And here it is, this cute little fellow is from Crafters Companion Humherys Corner.

I have coloured him with promarkers.. I have used red/blue/green cardstock.. I punch the red and green shapes. The blue card I embossed using one of my boards.. The strippy paper is K & Co.. I used a nesti die with the red mirri board. I added some candi and a doodled border..

A plain and simple card again.. Great for a little boys card I think...

Teddy Bo.

Good morning bloggers, Hope you are all well and having a good weekend.

The weather here is another dull dark day.. With no sign of the sun making an apperance..:-(

I managed to have another session in the craft room last night Yippee... I had a play with a few new stamps.. So I will show you what I can up with in the next few posts..

I think I have found a new love too in these Teddy Bo stamps. They are so great to colour and make me smile everytime I look at them. Cant wait to do more with these...

I coloured these cuties with promarkers.. (tan, caramel, rose pink, pale pink, khaki, cocoa)

Here is the full card:

I kept this design very plain and simple as I wanted the image to speak for itself...

I used nestie die to cut the image out, the DP was freebie with the stamps (SCP magazine Issue 98)

I added kraft paper, twine, buttons, pearls to finish..

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
