SWEET DREAMS

Hi everyone.
It's time for a new challenge and Crafting for all Seasons and we've got an easy one for you this time...we're giving you a sketch. Here it is:


Our sponsor for this challenge is Milk Coffee and I have used their image called "Lisbeth-Goodnight". I've coloured her in with Copics and used background papers from Michele R Designs "Isabella" collection. I do so love her papers!
Now it's over to you....follow that sketch!

ALL THINGS PRETTY

Hi all!
I'm here today with my DT card for The Crafter's Cafe where the theme this week is "Ribbons and / or Lace".
Our sponsor for this week's challenge is Angie's DigiStamps and I have used "Ballet Shoes" for my card. I have coloured the image in with Copics and made a simple background using freebie HunkyDory papers wrapped with lace and ribbon, and added a few flat-backed pearls to finish the card off.
So now it's over to you....use ribbons and / or lace! Easy!

FROSTY IN APRIL

Hi everyone.
It's time for the mid-month reminder for the challenge over at Crafty Hazel Nuts Christmas challenge blog, the theme,as always, is anything goes!

BEAUTY IN BLOOM TIDDLY INKS DT CALL

Hi everyone.
It's a glorious day here but I have far too many cards to make to be out enjoying the sun! I want to enter the DT call at Tiddly Inks but the card I originally did is for another DT post tomorrow, and one of the rules is that the make must be for this DT call only....so this is my entry. Luckily, I'd already planned this card in my head because it's for my sis-in-law's birthday on Thursday. She's a huge gardening fan so I thought these stamps would be perfect!
I have used Tiddly Ink freebies for this card; the daisy and Garden of Love sentiment. I have used a sheet of backing paper from Dovecraft "Curiousity Corner" and added a piece of hessian. All good gardening fun for my fave sis-in-law.
Good luck to everyone who enters!

OOOPS! Looks like I'm too late to enter. Some things are just not meant to be!

GET INTO SHAPE AT THE CRAFTER'S CAFE

Hi everyone.
It's time for a new challenge at The Crafter's Cafe  and the theme this week is "Shaped Cards". This is something I love to do but don't do as often as I should....a bit like housework!
I've had a little play with my XL X-cut dies, taking an A5 size card and die-cutting each end to create my basic shaped card. I then cut a window, intending to "hang" my image but changed my mind and ended up sticking a piece of paper inside the window instead! The image I have used is from A&T Designs (one of our sponsors); this little cutie is called "Isla" which I've coloured in with Copics. Bless her little cottons...she IS hanging on to a dandelion but I went a bit bonkers with the Frantage and obscured this a little!
So our TWO sponsors this week are:
and

Now it's over to you....get creative and show us your shaped cards!

ANIMAL FRIENDS

Hi everyone.
Second post of the day! This is my DT make for Crafting for all Seasons where the theme for the next fortnight is "Animal Friends". Our sponsor for this challenge is A Random Fan.
I have used "Daisy and Dexter Bunting", coloured in with Copics. I have used a fabby new digi paper for the background... this is from the "Burlap Lace" collection from Digital Stories on Etsy. I love them all!
I've added a few flowers from my stash and a "Make a Wish" die-cut....die is from Quick Creations.
Now it's over to you....show us your love for our Animal Friends!
