Thanks....

Hello There....Happy Friday!

Yes, yes...I know I'm technically away for the weekend...but there is always time for a quick card isn't there??

So I've got a cute thank you card for you today.....I love this sentiment....

 

I also love pink and blue as a colour combo....I think they go so well together, especially when in these soft shades.

 

Soooo....isn't that a cute Bugaboo image?? When I saw it I knew I had to add it to my ever growing collection of images!! I've coloured the image with my Promarkers and attached it to the card using 3D sticky pads. The sentiment was created on my computer and also attached to the card with 3D sticky pads. The layout for this card comes from the fab sketch over at Cupcake Craft Challenges....I've just flipped it on its side to fit my image in!!

 

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

 

Cupcake Craft Challenge - sketch

Tuesday Throwdown - Thankful

Oldie but a Goodie - NOT Christmas! My old item is the polka dot paper...I love it and its been in my collection for as long as I can remember..I'm slowly using it up in strips!!

Aud Sentiments - Thanks

Simon Says Stamp - thank you

 

Pop by all these fab blogs to see what the DT have been creating!!

 

Right...I better get going....I'll report back on Monday or Tuesday!!

Its summer time!

Post number two for today! Please scroll down to see my Celebrate the Occasion DT post.

Sooo....isn't this weather lovely?? The sky is blue in Aldershot today and the sun is shining! Woo hoo! I really hope this lasts as I'm on annual leave next week and staying put in this country!

Anyway, all this lovely sunshine has inspired a couple of cards today....

I've used plain blue backing paper, along with some fab stripy paper that reminds me of deck chairs to make this page. My image is created from two Pollycraft characters which I have coloured with my Promarkers. The sentiment was created on my computer.

This card reminds me of me and Joe.....we love surfing. I'd like to say the characters look like us, but I think that would be pushing it a bit!!

This card has been created for the following challenges:

Cupcake Craft Challenge - The Ocean

The Pink Elephant - summer

Oldie but a Goodie - photo inspiration (that photo really screamed summer holiday to me and this is my perfect summer holiday!). My old thing is the deck chair-like paper!

Tuesday Throwdown - Tropical paradise

My second card also has a lovely summery vibe to it....

Isn't that strawberry backing paper cute?? I've backed this paper with some plain blue paper, which I have also used around my image and my sentiment. The image is another Pollycraft cutie and I've coloured her with my Promarkers.

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

Make it Monday

Passion got Promarkers - feeling fruity

Crafty Sentiments - food

Love to Create - spots & dots (my strawberrys are dotty!)

Well I hope my cards have left you with that summer feeling! Pop by the challenge blogs mentioned to see all the gorgeous DT cards that have been created.

Finally, I'd like to introduce you to Penny the Pineapple plant! Hee, hee....I've wanted a pineapple plant for ages and mum found this lovely one! She's now sat below my living room window sunning herself!

Something a little different....

....hello there! Woo hoo...we're half way through the week!

Soooo....today I decided to try something a little different and to be honest while I was making it I was a little worried that it looked odd....but actually once I'd coloured my image and attached it all together I was quite pleased with the final result!

What do you think....

Now I bet you are asking yourself...well whats different here? Its the colours!

I've gone with a hot pink and then some vintage papers - flowery and yellow! I've stamped my image and coloured it with my Promarkers and added some blue punched flowers, finished off with a little yellow glitter!

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

Oldie but a goodie - flower power (the punch I used for the flowers is ancient!!)

Tuesday Throwdown - hot colours

Cute Card Thursday - Gardener's World

3,2,1...time for a chat??

Hello folks!

Thanks for popping by today...I have a fab card for you today (even if I do say so myself!!). I really enjoyed making this card and its sooo much more fun than yesterday's card!!

Super cute!!!

I've created this card for several challenges including the "Critters" challenge at the Tuesday Throwdown. I'd also like to enter this card in the "banners or bunting" challenge at Oldie but a Goodie Challenge (my old thing is that gorgeous flowery papers....I can't actually remember when I bought it!!).

There is also a 3,2,1 challenge at Papertake Weekly Challenge this week...on my card I have 3 pieces of bunting, I have used 2 pieces of backing paper and have included 1 digi image (or sentiment)!

Happy Wednesday!

Hello Folks, hope you're keeping well today.

I have a little card for you today...

I still find it very hard to make cards for Dads. My Dad passed away last year and although I'm ok, its still a raw subject for me. In fact Fathers Day last year passed by just fine.....but this year all the adverts on TV are making me a little sad. Its funny how the mind works isn't it?!

Anyway, this red, white and blue extravaganza is for the following challenges:

Passion for Promarkers - colour theme - red, white & blue

Sweet Stamps - for Dad

Digi Doodle - get your bunting out (sorry no Digi Doodle image this week!)

Papertake Weekly - Anything goes - optional extra - for a man or boy

Oldie but a Goodie - anything goes - my item that is more than 6 months old is the stamp....I've had this for at least a year (probably longer!) and I pull it out of the drawer every so often as he makes me smile!
