Show us some Luuurrrvveee!

Hello there!

I hope you are keeping well and had a fab week!

Well, its the beginning of that month which is tinged in pink and red, and covered in hearts! Yep, its February already (does anyone know what happened to January??) and Valentines is just around the corner! With that in mind, we decided to get organised this week at Sweet Stampin and we'd love to see your cards that celebrate Valentines or Love.

Now I found this rather fab image for my Valentines card......


Hee, hee! Isn't it fab?

Not exactly your usual Valentines card, but I love it!

I decided to go with a bold colour combo to go with my bold image choice, along with that gorgeous flowery backing paper. I think it makes for a wonderfully quirky card! My image is coloured with my Promarkers and I have added a paper heart embellishment.

For more inspiration pop by the Sweet Stampin challenge blog and take a peek at the gorgeous DT cards that have been created by Team Abi. While you're there you can read about our fab sponsors....



I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Passion for Promarkers - anything goes

Thank you for popping by today,

Have a GGGGreat Birthday!

Morning All - another lovely morning! The sun has got her hat on! Although I hear that rain is forecast for the end of this week...typical I've got an annual leave day booked for Friday!

So, over at Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge they are celebrating the launch of new stamps with an anything goes challenge...wow the imagination ran wild! Take a peek here to see the new stamps in use in the fab DT designs. I think the cards and the stamped images are just gorgeous.

I decided to go with a completely different theme for my card.....


Not my usual style I know, but I fancied trying my hand at a children's card. I've created my lion topper out of yellow and orange paper, adding details with black pen and giving him some googly eyes to make him more child friendly! To keep the card bright and simple I have used a green backing paper on one side of the card and some lovely spotty paper in a smaller size on the other side. I completed the card with a pre-printed topper.

I think this card is fab....even if I do say so myself...it makes me smile and thats a sign of a fab card in my book! Ha, ha! I also made an elephant card, which I'm not so happy with....plus there is debate in my family because they think I've created a hybrid creature...take a look....

Apparently elephants do not have short curly tails....thats pigs! So I've created a piggie-phant!

Again, this card is created using plain and patterned backing papers. I'm not as happy with my colour combo in this card though.

For the ladies at SCSC its the lion card that I want to enter for the challenge - not my weird piggie-phant!!



Thanks for stopping by today, enjoy the sunshine wherever you are!
