You can always tell when my darling hubby is away, cos when he's away I get to play! So here is my third card from last nights efforts. Ahh, last night, full control of the remote (on QVC craft day, of course), glass of red, creme egg, three cards made and a long bubble bath, bliss(....I miss him really).This is for two challenges....Cute Daisy May....Flowers.Sunday Sketch and Stamp....Sketch.I have used my Liddie image from the Lil Poppets range at the DigiStamp Boutique. I used Copics to colour and the papers are from a Daisy and Dandelion pad.
My second card tonight is for two challenges...Penny Black Saturday...Pink, Green and Yellow.Pink Elephant....Sketch.I'm not too sure about those big flowers but they are well and truly stuck down now! I sat them on I took them off, I sat them on again....you get the picture. My creative advisor (DH) is away to London on business until later tonight, but I can hear him say it now ' you know those big flowers are a mistake, don't you?'
I am happily crafting away my evenings using lots of bright sunny colours for Spring and Easter cards and it is a blizzard outside. It hasn't stopped all day and apparently is with us until the weekend!
Anyways, here is my card for this weeks Willow Sketchie, I'm at the coo's tail as usual and hoping that I can get this in just under the wire.
I have used the Willow image I won in the challenge a couple of weeks back, it is pre-coloured so nice and easy does it for this one.
.....that's what the little heart charm says on today's card. Now I love my Copics but these Lili of the Valley stamps just cry out to be water coloured (well, that's what I think anyway). So, on a restful sunday morning I was happy to oblige.
This fits 2 challenges...
Cute Card Thursday....metal mania.
Simon Says....3 embellies, 2 papers, 1 image.
Now let me think? What goodies are in Connie's bags? My guess is some smellies from Molton Brown, a box of Guylian chocolate seashells and a good bottle of red! What d'ya think?
Connie is available now from the DigiStamp Boutique and would be perfect for Mothers Day. I used Copics to colour and the paper is Sweet Nothings by Papermania. The sentiment stamp is from one of those little 99p sets 'Doodle me Pink'.
I am entering this into 2 challenges...
Sketch and Stash...my image is new and my papers had been neglected.
Dare U2 Digi...punches. I used my MS daisy punch.
What's that coming over the hill? Is it a monster? Is it a monster?
No! It's Freddie and Dino. Perfect for the little men in your life. Freddie and Dino are from the DigiStamp Boutique and coloured with Copics. The papers are Archaic by Basic Grey (don't they go perfectly?) and buttons and cord finish the whole thing off.
I am entering this card into Sweet Sketch Wednesday.
Meet the new babe in town. Her name is Ellie and she can be found here at the DigiStamp Boutique, isn't she adorable?
I love gingham but DH says it's 'twee'. How wrong is he? I have stitched a bit again and used glossy accents on the bubbles.
This follows the excellent sketch over on Sketch and Stash, my new element is Ellie.
I've used Coco again, he's just so darn cute! And look....my stitching is improving. The papers are by Doodlebug and you can get hold of Coco here at the DigiStamp Boutique (oh, and there are some fabby new releases for February.....card to follow). I have used Copics to colour.
Well, the soap making stuff finally arrived. Don't ever order anything from the Soap Kitchen, well not if you want anything fairly fast and you don't want to pick it up from the couriers depot over 30 miles away!
I have trawled Glasgow for a fluted tartlet baking tray, no luck. I then tried online, still nothing. So my little lavender guest soaps will just have to be plain.
Anyway back to this card...it fits 4 challenges...
Friday Sketchers.....great sketch, thanks.
DareU2Digi....Hearts/Valentine.
Secret Crafter....Hearts.
Sweet Stampin'....Scallops (I used my brand new MS punch).
