Make a wish


Hi everyone, this is a card that I made for this weeks challenge at Less is More where the theme is to use a TAG,  I made this card at the beginning of the week and I was unsure weather to enter it or not.
I am not happy with the way the card turned out but then thought as I had made it I may as well enter it! lol

I used a stitched tag from lil inkers and edged it with distress ink, the butterfly is actually a die cut which I sponged with distress ink before adding to my tag.  I then stamped the trail using a stamp from inkylicious in distress ink, and added some dots with a glitter pen.  I wanted the trail to sparkle more than it does but I don't think the the picture is very good.  
The ribbon is from my stash.

Moving along with the times DT


This week the challenge from Team A is a recipe

Add 1 Digi Image to 2 Pattered Papers, Add 3 Embellishments and finally a touch of Glitter. This will make the Perfect card :)

Last Month I was invited as GDT member for April and this is one of the four cards 
I created for them.

 I have used a gorgeous new digi image from Whimsie Doodles which is available here
I coloured using my promarkers and used some papers from a doodlebug pad sugar shoppe.  I have inked around the edges with some marigold distress ink, the border die is from tonic studio and sentiment from LOTV.
I added 3 enamel dots for the 3 embellishments and added 2 die cut flowers.
I have added some glossy accents to the centre of the flower and then covered it in glitter.

I think I have added all the ingredients to make the perfect card!

Creative Moments DT card


Good morning and welcome to a new challenge at Creative Moments.
If this has scheduled correctly I will be enjoying myself at Sutton on Sea where we are away for a few days, so will only be posting some DT cards unless I can get some decent internet.

This fortnight we have a colour challenge, 


The sponsors are Dee Dee's Digi's, I have used Spring Blocks and you can find it HERE
I have used my pencils to colour the image and kept it CAS one layer. I used a fine line pen to draw the box.  The sentiment is also included with the images.

Christmas card challenge 21


This weeks challenge over at Christmas Card Challenge is Anything goes


the card that I have to show you is made using an image from Digi Stamp Boutique, it is part of an A4 sheet, there are 6 images with sentiments and they are already coloured !!
I printed out the A4 sheet and then die cut each image with a stitched square, I added glamour dust to highlight and then added to a square of patterned paper, super quick and easy and I made 6 cards in about 20 mins.
All the papers are from my bits and bobs box so not sure where they are from.


another image.

Hang in there


Good news - My boiler is fixed and I now have hot water! There was a problem with the ignition so a few new parts and good as new.  You don't realise how much you rely on the boiler until you don't have it, I had to boil the kettle this morning for a wash.

Last month I was invited to be Guest DT member for Whimsie Doodles for the month of April, I was asked to make four creations. This is one of the cards that I made, using the digi image hang in there which is available here, I have coloured the image with promarkers and added some light blue distress ink around the image, you can not see it very well in the picture but I added some wink of stella to the ladybug spots.  I created a stitched frame from navy blue cardstock, and raised it up on some foam pads.  The sun is from Lil inkers and the sentiment banner, navy circle and yellow flower are from die namic dies.  The sentiment is computer generated.

Spread your wings

hello again....

I have another card for this weeks Less is More challenge UP UP and AWAY!

For this card I cut a square piece of card with a stitched die from a blueprint set and then cut out my butterfly, for this card i wanted to use the negative cut.
I coloured a piece of card with some blue distress inks and then sprayed with my shimmer spritzing ink, once dry I glued it to my card blank and then added the square of card mounted onto foam pads.
The sentiment is a digi from pink petticoat.



I am also entering this card into the current Uniko Studio Challenge - Things with Wings

carol singing

Hello everyone.....

I had hoped to post this card earlier but my husbands on nights shift this week and I am creeping around the house during the daytime trying to be quiet. So when my friend asked if I fancied going out for some lunch and a visit to the garden centre it seemed rude not to go lol.
When I was going to wash up a few tea cups tonight I found that we had no hot water, and my boiler is flashing some error, so i have to wait in tomorrow for the gas man to come and fix it.

So enough rambling and onto my card.

This weeks challenge over at Merry Monday Christmas Challenge is to use a dog or cat.  I did have an image in mind to use but time seems to be running away with me this week, so I opted to use this coloured topper from LOTV, unfortunately they are no longer available and I am slowly running out of them. I just love the little doggie singing away with the carolers.   I added some glamour dust and mounted onto black card. The music I found in my christmas stash and the backing paper is from LOTV as is the ticket sentiment.
The ribbon and lace are from my stash.
