Spring is in the air.....

everywhere I look around....now how many of you know that one???

Well I have not had much time to do anything on my days off this week. Housework yesterday...boring and then I had a funeral this morning but then went for lunch with Lou and then more housework this afternoon...thought I would wash everything in sight since it was nice and I was able to hang the washing outside today and even better..it's all dry!!

So a quickie before I head to Tesco...the papers are from the nitwits collections and the image is from Sugar Nellie which I coloured with copics and then did a bit shading with my pencils. The flowers have been cut with a MFT flower die-namic die with some pearls added to the centres. Ichalked the clouds onto the oval and some little birds and layered it onto the scallop oval...which I cut by hand with my little Stampin Up slit punch. I have entered the following challenges.

well what can I say...

I have been doodling away at this image since last week and this is actually my 4th attempt at colouring her hair....it's not too good. I did try to follow Debbi's tutorial but I was kind of rubbish so more practice needed!! By the time I finished the colouring, I couldn't really be bothered so for me a plainish card although I did find the following challenges to enter.

Cupcake Craft challenge - pink polka dots
Simply Create - monochromatic
Craft your passion - anything goes
Stamping Vacation - monochromatic pink
stamping bazaar - monochromatic

Sweet Stampin' DT card

Good morning Sweet Stampers and another challenge over at Sweet Stampin'. First of all...it's been heavy snowing here again and still is...I can't believe it...it's a whiteout!! Although we complain about the snow, we have to think of all the unfortunate people in Japan....so for any of you with friends and family over ther I hope they are safe!! This weeks challenge is a card or project based on your favourite film/movie. I was kind of stumped with what to do but eventually I decided on the above ...can you guess what it is?? That's right it's Titanic. I did see a similar card on another blog a few months back but I can't find it now... Everything I have used is all bits and bobs I had in my stash so I am unsure what manufacturer any of the bits are from other than the card..it's Bazill.

Our sponsor this week is Fairy Dust Crafts and we also have our monthly sponsor Pollycraft!! Check out what the other DT members have made...awesome!!
