Another Christmas Challenge Card !!!!

A really quick post before I head out to the theatre - This card is for the challenge over at Papertake Weekly where the theme is one colour.

I've used the Magnolia stamp "Santa's Little Helper" coloured with copics. With that little Santa hat my colour theme just had to be red.

Now I'm off to see Joseph at the Birmingham Hippodrome ....

Four Challenge Christmas Card - Pink Gem

I usually have trouble getting in the mood to make Christmas cards this early but because I wasn't using the "traditional colours" this one wasn't so much of an effort.

This card is based on the sketch over at "A Gem of A Challenge" and I have used the Pink Gem image "Snowy Sprinkles" coloured with copics. The DP's are from the DCWV paper pack "Rose Tinted Christmas"


I'm entering this into the following challenges

• A Gem of a Challenge - Sketch
• Paper Sundaes - Christmas in August
• Totally Gorjuss - Christmas in August
• Stampin for the Weekend - Anything Goes

Creative Craft Challenge - Circle Card

Hope everyone had a great bank holiday, I have only just realised that means the next holiday is Christmas!!! I better get started on some cards!!!

The theme over at Creative Craft this fortnight is "Circle card" and I have two projects to share.

The first is a wall hanger I made using a page from an shaped acrylic scrapbook (docrafts).
The image is made up of 2 stamps from the Elzybells Clear Stamp sets "Mini Messages Winter" and "Mini Messages Christmas" coloured with copics. I'm not sure what the DP is at the moment (the downside of blog posting at lunchtime at work and not making a note of the papers- Will add this in when I get home).

The second project is using an image provided by our sponsor for this challenge STITCHY BEAR STAMPS who is offering the winner FIVE digital images of their choice.

I've used the image "Christmas Warmth Fireplace" coloured with copics and coloursoft pencils. The DP's I will have to add at a later date (I haven't made a note of them again).

Creative Craft Challenge - Transport

The theme over at Creative Craft this fortnight is "Transport" and I've used the Elzybells stamp "Bike Ride" coloured with copics. The DP's are from the Dovecraft "Funky Vintage" paper pack

As Elzybells is no more and I love their images I've had to have a "little" spending spree in the sale to grab some stamps before they all go and are lost forever!! So you may see a few Elzybells cards popping up over the coming months.

The sponsor for this challenge is the lovely debs from
the crafty pad and she is offering this gorgeous stamp as the prize.

Creative Craft Challenge Card - Here Comes The Bride

Gosh it's been ages since I've posted anything!!! I've been without the Internet for so long it was like I'd lost a part of me. I'm now back online so hopefully will get back to normal with my postings.

This fortnights challenge over at Creative Craft Challenge is "Here comes the bride" and there is a mystery prize for the winner.

Here's my design team card for the challenge and I have used a gorgeous Hanglar image that I received from one of the members over at the docrafts forum. It's been coloured with copics and the DP's are from a Create & Craft paper pack that I picked up as a freebie the last time I went to Hobbycraft at the NEC (I do buy crafty bits...honest, it's just coincidence that the image and papers were freebies!!!!)

Missing In Action & exciting news !!!!!

Just a quick post to show that I haven't disappeared from the face of the earth. I have been busy moving house and that just happened to fall at the same time as going to see Bon Jovi at the O2 Arena in London (twice - once is never enough!!!), so things are a bit hectic at the moment.

But I do have some exciting news which is that when I finally managed to get round to checking my emails I had received an offer from Creative Craft Challenges to join their DT!!! So have quickly had to unpack a few of my crafty bits and pieces in preparation.

Haven't got a card to post yet so instead you will have to make do with a couple of my pictures from the O2. I've seen Bon Jovi about 20 times but these were the best shows ever!! (I probably say that every time!! lol)
