Creative Craft Challenge - "Tag It"

The challenge for this fortnight over at Creative Craft Challenges is "Tag It" so we need to see lots of tags on your creations

As my contribution for this challenge I have a sweet jar and matching card.

I have used Elzybells images for all my creations - the images on the sweet jar are from the clear stamp set "Mini Messages - Winter" and the image on the card is "Girl with Bird" and they're all coloured with copics.

The DP's are from the Papermania paper pack "Festive Frolics"

We're sponsered for this challenge by "Little Claire Designs" who is offering one lucky winner 2 stamps

Sketch and Stash Challenge 49 - Whiff of Joy

It's time for another challenge over at Sketch and Stash - I can't believe how quickly the weeks are passing - it's going to be Christmas before we know it.

For my card I've used the the gorgeous Whiff of Joy stamp "Henry Mouse with Hot Chocolate" and the papers are all unused/neglected stash.  The brads are covered in a sort of corduroy material and I've had them for absolutely ages....and have never used them.

 The card is based on this fab sketch

And we're sponsored for this challenge by Whiff of Joy

Starlight Starbright - Creative Craft Challenge

Time for another challenge over at Creative Craft Challenges and this fortnight the theme is "Starlight Star bright", so we need to see lots of stars on your projects for this challenge.

For my card I have used the gorgeous Lili of the Valley image "Teddy with star" coloured with copics,  It doesn't show on this photo very well but my teddy has been eating his Ready Brek (or any other oat based breakfast cereal) and has a slight orange glow around him which I did using Koh-i-noor pencils and blending them out with sansador.  The DP's are from the Dovecraft paper pack "Christmas Fancy".

It doesn't happen very often but I got my sewing machine out for this card (if you don't look too closely you might even miss the wonky stitches!!)
