Bloomin Special

Hi all,

Here today to show you my inspiration card from over on the My Mums Craft Shop Blog. 

Today I have used one of the fab by Greeting Farm stamps - Anya Blooms. I love the size of these stamps they are a little larger than normal so give plenty of space for colouring! .

I teamed Anya with some bright and filly papers from Echo Park - we are family and kept they layout super simple.  I used a CC Designs sentiment and finished off with a few flowers and gems.

Fairy wishes

Hi all,

I have had this sweet fairy image coloured up for quite a while now so decided it was time I finally got her onto a card.

The gorgeous image is from Tiddly Inks Stamps and is available as either a clear stamp or digi 

I teamed the image with some very pretty Kaisercraft papers that were free with a magazine a few moths back,  as was the fabulous vellum bunting. 

The sentiment is from a CC Design set and I finished off with a few paper and resin roses and gorgeous organza bow.

Sweet Cupcake

Hi all,

Here today to show you my inspiration card from over on the My Mums Craft Shop Blog. I had a rest during August as I was pretty tied up with school holidays and such but after receiving my latest parcel of goodies couldn't resist having a play.  

I have used the adorable MFT stamp - Sweet Birthday Wishes, just love her fabulous Cupcake!

I teamed my little cutie with some very pretty papers from Trimcraft First Edition papers - Bella Rose and finished off with a few embellishments from the MMCS £1 range.

Rubba, dub dub!

Hi all,

Here today to show you a little creation from me using the new Brambly Hedge CD Rom available from Crafters Companion on Create & Craft today.

There are 2 disks chocabloc full of all the usual CC goodness with a few new extras thrown in. One of them being the templates to make this fabulous little Easel Box Card.

It really is so easy to put together, everything is pre- printed and you literally just cut it out and assemble lol. All the templates for the rolled flowers are included too and you just then need to add your finishing touches - simples.

However if you are stuck I have done a full step by step tutorial on how to make this box which should be on the CC website very soon.

Hey Gorgeous!

Hi all

It's time for a new challenge at All Dressed Up.

Our theme for this fortnight is :  Autumn Colours

So think of all those gorgeous red, brown, orange, olive green tones

Here is my card - I used the fabulous image - Looking Gorgeous - now to be honest I have had this image printed up for ages but have been really intimidated to colour her. I was so sure that I would cock up the hair
as I am still getting used to colouring with the SN's. Its not 100% as good as I would like but I have to say I am pretty pleased with how she turned out.

I teamed the image with some old MME papers - I only had a few sheets left but the colours were just perfect for the challenge. I added a gorgeous bow from stitched ribbon and a few flowers to finish off.

Please pop on over to All Dressed up blog to check out the rest of my team mates creations, and why not enter the challenge whilst you are there. This challenge will run until 15th September and you could win yourself 3 images of your choice.

 **Please note**

My Favorite Image

Hi all,

Sob, sob, tears down face!!!!!! - It's a very sad day over at Ladybug Crafts Ink - Head ladybug Kerry has decided to close Ladybug Crafts Ink after 5 fabulous years. This is our last challenge and will end 30th September. 

We have invited retired Ladybugs and GD's to join in with our Grand Finale choosing their favourite LCI image whether it's a cling stamp or digi. 

Now with every closing down comes a SALE and boy have we got a sale for you!

 ALL cling stamps will be on sale from today for 1 pound and all ribbon, felt, buttons and nailheads are 30% off. The Swarovski crystals will NOT be in the sale. 

We hope you'll join us in our final challenge which will be CHOOSE YOUR FAVOURITE IMAGE. We would love it if it was an LCI image but it doesn't have to be. 

There will be 2 prizes....One for the challenge and one for the challenge using an LCI image.

Anyway here is my card using one of my favorite images - Handbag Nikki. 

The Nikki collection was the first range of stamps from LCI that caught my eye and fell in love with. In fact the Nikki range was one of the first ranges of stamps I stocked in my old shop. So its fitting that I use a Nikki to say goodbye with.

I coloured Nikki up with my SN's and teamed her with some fabby papers from Echo Park - We are family. I kept the layout quite simple and finished off with a few flowers and gems.

Please do pop on over to the LCI Blog and check out the fabulous creations.
