Hello you...

Hi all...I ahd had a busy week as I have been working extra cos Lynn is still off with her pinned and screwed arm but hopefully she will be back soon.....COME BACK Lynn!! I started making thei card last night and finished it this morning.....not sure if it qualifies for the SB challenge as it only as a small part of the stamp and I started following the colour option but went a bit off track but that was optional anyway...if it doesn't it doesn't and I quite like it so here it is. I used Basic Grey Marjolaine papers. I added some Wild Orchid flowers for a bit of texture and I coloured this fabby Sugar Nellie stamps with copics...which must have taken me 5 minutes...phew and made it look like a little photo in a frame!! The message is from Craftwork Cards which has been layered onto a punched oval.

Hippie Chick in red...

Well taking photos at night time does not them any justice!! It does look better IRL. My new papers arrived today so I just had to use them and although they have hearts on them...I think they are fine for birthdays too. My niece's birthday is next month and she will love this. The papers are Bo Bunny - Crush and of course the stamp is Hippie chick from the Simply Sassy range at Sugar Nellie...you can buy them here. I coloured the image with copics and added some glitter and gems. I punched the heart out and layered it onto the card. I also made the little lacey flower...although it's hard to see in the photo..it has a big red gem in the middle.

Sweet Stampin' DT card....

Well good morning all and a Haaaaappy New Year to you all. Would you believe it...I am so excited today as this is my first DT card for Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Our sponsor this week is Tiffany Doodles who are offering 5 digi's to one lucky winner.

Our monthly sponsor is Whimsy Stamps who are also offering 5 digi's.

The theme this week is to create a card/project from inspiration from your favourite song. Well I have lots of favourites and have gone with this one...can you guess what it is?? Well I have taken my inspiration from "Jai Ho" sung by The Pussycat Dolls for two reasons...first I love Slumdog Millionnaire, the song featured in that film and secondly...as you know I go to a Zumba class and this is my favourite song to shake it to..makes me feel like a teenager again!! The image is from Tiddly Inks - Aisha which has been coloured with copics, I did a bit of blending on the dress and I thought I would cut Aisha out....since I like to do that. The DP is from Scenic Route - Laurel...lots of rich orange, pinks and reds. I stamped the letters onto the same matching paper and cut them out. I punched out the flowers and added some jewels and glitter....hope you like it.

I coloured this Sweet Pea image with copics using 12 different shades of green and 6 different browns...not sure if you can see the shading in the photo but believe me...it took me ages!! I distressed the edges of the circle and also inked the edges of the image with brown and green ink aswell then added some glitter, pearls and gems. I have entered the following the challenges:
