Valentine Shaker
Time for a new challenge over at A perfect Time To Craft Challenge Blog. As always the theme is Anything Goes
Happy Mail
This stamp set from Time For Tea Designs is perfect for the current situation and has been so well thought out. I adore all the little stamps and so decided to create some designer paper using them.
It was a little time consuming but the effect is fabulous
Grumpy Cats
I just love their expressions. They make me laugh with their 'yes' whatever looks. They have the same expression that my daughter often gives me. I have no idea where she might get it from...
Yayyy
I love looking through my stash and seeing things I have forgotten. I just love this little windmill. I always wanted to live in a windmill when I grow up! Especially one on a hill, not sure why that had to be part of the dream but it was.
Clearly Besotted Gnome One Like You
I popped to the local garden centre the other day and discovered that they have a huge crafting section, so bought some Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Texture Paste. first time for everything. I love how they made the cloud all sparkley without the mess that comes with glitter
A Birthday Treat
This stamp set is acutally a autumn stamp set from Sassy & Crafty it is part of the pumpkin spice clear stamp set but I have made it into a year round birthday card
Polkadoodles Snow Image
It is Tuesday so time for a new challenge over at the polkadoodles Digi-Choosday Challenge Blog. Pop over and claim todays discount on digital images available unitl midnight GMT
The design Teams brief this week was to use a snow image. I got this image before christmas and just never got the chance to use it so thought it would be just perfect.
The UK is in our third lockdown so the sentiment felt just perfect. There are a number of people I want to spend time and I especially want a hug off my mum, like everyone else, my last one was March.
Crafty Christmas Club Jan
So it is January and Christmas feels like a distant memory and the next one feels miles away but I am taking part in the Crafty Christmas Club 2021 Blog Hop meaning once a month, I get to play with my Christmas stamps.
Birthday Wishes
Another card showcasing one of the fabulous prizes on offer at our birthday challenge. This prize is by sponsor The ArtsyStamper
Snowy Day
When issue 211 of Simply Cards & Papercraft landed on my doorstep if contained a stamp set called Alpine Village by Paper Discovery and that jogged my memory about a set of Paper Discovery Stamps I got back in the summer. The Alpine Village contains some of the same stamps from the Travel and Adventure About Town Stamp Set but on a smaller scale.
This would be just perfect for scene building
Team Tiny Interactive Hop
So this is my first YouTube hop as part of the Team Tiny Group on Facebook. A group for Crafty YouTubers who have less than 1000 subscribers
Todays hop is to involve an interactive card.
I have gone with a very simple and easy interactive card as I often fimd people feel a little intimidated my interactivr cards as they are seen as a lot of hard work.
This one certainly isnt
Cuddle Buddies
I think we are all in need of a hug at the moment aren't we? This card is perfect to send to that friend that you are missing greatly because of the current pandemic
Mixed Media Background
I made this background for another project ages ago and just did not love it, so I made something different and this has been sat on my desk ever since. As the weeks have gone by it has grown on me and I now love it so it just had to be used.
Pop Fizz Click
It is ages since I made a card where the focus was not my colouring so decided to have a little play. I couldnt not add any volouring at all but there was certainly less than normal
Clearly Besotted Creating Chemistry
This adorable little set comes with some fabulous sentiments and so is not only suitable for valentines day, but for teachers and graduates too
snow man dance
These are adorable snowmen literally melt my heart I love them. One snowman is brushing the snow from the porch while the other one is boogying on in the snow.
Dodgems
Did you love the Dodgems as a kid? I used to love when the fair came to town as I was all for them. So was my brother, my other brother and sister though, nope they hated them with a passion
Todays card has been created by changing one of the stalls from The Greeting Farm Digital Carnvial set into the Dodgem house. This was incredibly easy all I did was crop the image so the front of the stall below the opening is missing.
Purfect
My no spend January went so well I lasted until 8pm on the 1st!!! Then cracked and purchased the entire January release from Clearly Besotted.
Cocktail Time
I used to love a cocktail especially on hoilday and the ones that were so full of rubbish and E numbers and dyed your tongue a funky colour were always the best tasting ones.
This stamp set from Sassy & Crafty which was part of the December release reminds me of fun nights in what now feels such a distant memory I sort of question if it was a past time or not
Winston Gardening
It is time for a new Digi-choosday Challenge over at Polkadoodles Challenge Blog.
The DTs brief for this week was use an image with boots. As a little girl I always wanted red wellies so who better to colour up than Winston Bear
Flying High
I need a few more cards in my stash that are aimed at the males of the species. So thought this stamp would be perfect
Thanks berry much
I had no idea if this would turn out as I wanted it too, but I wanted soft lines and a clean and simple design to showcase the extreme detail in this beautiful stamp.
Special Friend
With the festive season most of my energy had been thrown into making Christmas Cards so I feel a lot of my stash was a little unloved.
I stamped and coloured this fun and cheerful scene while I was watching the news unfold of the earthquakes in Croatia and our rapidly escalating virus numbers. I decided at that moment that this card had to be full of vibrant colours as there is enough grief and anxiety in the world at the moment
Day over Fabulous
We are celebrating over at The Perfect Time to Craft Facebook Group and there are some fabulous prizes up for grabs. This adorable image is one of our prizes
