Paper Sundaes DT card

Welcome back Sundae bloggers and my next post today... The challenge this week over at Paper Sundaes is "vintage/shabby chic"....this was certainly a challenge for me as I felt a bit out of my depth!!

This week our sponsor is Tickled Pink





who are offering one lucky winner....

For my card I found some papers in my stash which i thought fitted this challenge well...not sure which make they are, but I duffed them up a bit with some distress inks and I also distressed the edges of each of the layers. The image is Lil Fashionette 20's Evie from Tickled Pink and I coloured her with promarkers. I finished with some lace and a few flowers.

Fashion statement!!

Well another lovely sunny day and...not my usual and I can tell you ...never again!! I wanted to try the Less is More challenge and this week it's acetate...piece of cake I thought!! That stuff just has a mind of its own...aaarrgggg!! It won't cut and everything sticks to it including the rubber stamps I used on this one...I had to peel the stamps from the acetate...I thought what's going on here...I thought it was ink I used not glue!! I was not going to let this one beat me so 6 sheets of acetate later...here we are. I embossed a white panel and layered it onto the black and added pink seam binding and a little message. I layered the acetate on to sticky fixers so that it gives a 3d effect and actually IRL this does look quite good as you can see the shadows behind the figures...not sure if you can see it in the photo. The stamps I just love...these were a win I got in the early days, they are called My Acrylix - Every Day Life...great for quick cards although this one wasn't quick hence the reason I have not said a wee quickie before lunch!!

How Charming at Paper Sundaes

Godd afternoon all you Sundae bloggers and my second scheduled post today. Here we are with another challenge over at Paper Sundaes. The cghallenge this week is "how charming"....which means use a charm on your project.

This week we are sponsored by Wags 'n' Whiskers.

The lovely Lacey is giving one lucky winner a $20 gift certificate to spend in her online store.


For my card I have used "Snuzzle Love" from Wags 'n' Whiskers...isn't she so cute?? I have coloured her with copics aswell. TYhe papers ate a mixture of MME Fine & Dandy - Tickled Pink and Quite Contrary. Now I did have a cherry charm but had a bit of a mishap with the pliers and the charm...so I have added a Making Memories charmed word. I ruffled some ribbon to layer underneath the green strip and also added a bow. I really fancied joining the Colour Create challenge and you have to choose 3 fruits from the photo provided so the I have chosen...cherry red, watermelon and golden delicious apple green...those are more yellow/green than a dark green and the paper has cherries too. I have entered the challenges below.

Colour Create - 3 fruits
Little Claire's - anything goes

Merry Christmas...

I have been quiet the past couple of days as I haven't been feeling well...still don't feel 100% but being a mother you just have to get on with it!! I have made this card using Bo Bunny Winter Joy papers, the snowflakes were punched with the Martha Stewart punches, the tags are from Stampin' Up tiny tags which I stamped and punched, the message was stamped but I masked off the full message as it was too big to fit and the image is from All That scraps and coloured with copics. To finish off I added glitter to the snowflakes and the trims on Darby's boots, jacket and hat.
