Hello there,

I hope you're well today and having a great week so far!

Another month has flown by and its time for another fab challenge over at Christmas at Sweet Stampin. This month's sponsor is the fabulous Little Miss Muffet and the DT were given some gorgeous stamps to play with - a big thank you to LMM!

Our theme this month is "winter fun".... and here is my card.....

I love this super cute image so much and thought she went really well with my snowflake backing paper. My image has been coloured using Promarkers. I've cut out more of the snowflakes and added them with 3D sticky pads to my finished card.

As I mentioned above our lovely sponsor is Little Miss Muffet and they have an equally fabulous prize for our lucky winner....

LMMS will award one $6.00 Gift Certificate for the random winner of this challenge. The Gift Certificate can be used towards anything in the LMMS Store, including Digital Stamps, Rubber Stamps and/or Metal Dies.

For more winter fun inspiration pop by the Christmas at Sweet Stampin challenge blog and take a peek at the gorgeous DT cards that have been created.

We can't wait to see what you've created!

Thank you for popping by today,

Winter Animals

Hello there!
Happy Wednesday - I hope you are well and you're having a fab week!

Today is the beginning of our monthly challenge over at Christmas at Sweet Stampin (I'm not sure what happened to July....it felt like only yesterday that I was making my snowman card!!). Anyway, this month's challenge is winter animals....

 

I've opted for a cute Digi Stamp Boutique penguin as the main focus of my card, I have coloured him using my Promarkers. I then decided to create an elegant background using blue and brown backing papers....and a herd of reindeer! I'm not entirely sure that the cute penguin matches the elegant background that well.....is he too cute looking??

 

POp by the Christmas at Sweet Stampin challenge blog to see which winter animals appear on the DT cards this month. While you're there you can also learn about our fab sponsor this month....

Winter Sports!

Hello there!

Happy Wednesday...I hope you are having a good week....I do love bank holiday weekends, they make the working week so much shorter!

I spent my weekend in the garden, it was lovely to finally see some sunshine and get on top of all the weeds! Also got my veggies planted. I ache all over at the moment, but it was worth it! Now can you all keep your fingers crossed for everything to grow please!

Soooo.....another month has flown by and we have a new challenge for you over at Christmas at Sweet Stampin. And this month....just as the snow has finally melted we are asking to see your cards featuring a winter sport.

Now, I have to say I struggled a little here....I don't seem to have many images featuring any kind of sport....let alone a winter one!! Luckily I managed to unearth this image....

 

So, my winter sport is sledging, with a little walking thrown in!!

 

My cute image is coloured with my Promarkers and I have gone with a blue theme to match all the snow. I have added some sparkle to the snow with my Stickles. Finally I added my brilliant sentiment....I really should use this one more, it makes me smile!

 

Pop by the Christmas at Sweet Stampin challenge blog to find out which winter sports the DT chose to feature on their cards. While you're there you can find out about the fab prize we have on offer this month from our sponsor....

Its a tad bit cold out there!!!

Hello there! Happy Sunday....hope you've had a lovely weekend so far.

My part of the world continues to be covered in snow (it has snowed all day!!)...I have decided that this is the best method of transport....

 

Yes, those are my feet and yes thats Joe pulling me along!! Poor thing!! Personally I think it counts as exercise and will help him work off the yummy Welsh Cakes that he devoured when we got home....

 

 

My mum used to make these when we were little, me and my sister would be lined up next to the stove waiting to eat them hot and fresh from the griddle pan!!

 

Inspired by the weather outside I have created the following card today....

 

 

Just what everyone needs...a pretty mug of hot chocolate (or tea or coffee!!).

 

The fab layout comes from this week's sketch over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday:

 

 

I've added a little sentiment box at the bottom...hope thats ok SSW ladies!!

 

My pretty mug image has been paper pieced, and I've gone with wintery blue colours....I love that blue cloudy backing paper, it goes perfectly with my punched snowflakes. I've added a little sparkle to the snowflakes using my Stickles.

 

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