Make A Pocket Card

A very good Monday morning to you all.

 I swear I don’t know where the weekends go.

Today over at Incy Wincy Designs we have a great new challenge.

We would like to see your pocket cards.

This week we have two amazing sponsors.

Pink Gem Designs and The Stamping Chef.

For my card I used three stamps from Pink Gems Designs.

I chose Emma In Torn Jeans, One of the Vintage Occasion Sentiments and a Freebie ‘Friend’ sentiment.

The card was made using the pocket slider template available at 

Which Craft?

As always the image is coloured using Promarkers.

The sentiment on the pocket is from LOTV;

flowers from Wild Orchid;

ribbon and lace are from my stash.

The gorgeous paper is by Katie Pertiet available here.

Anything but a card

Good morning, well here we are almost at the end of another week, my how time flies!

Today over at CRAFT we have a new challenge.

This week we would like to see projects that are…

Anything But A Card

Our sponsors this week are

 LEJ Designs                        Wags n Whiskers

The Cutting Cafe         Trimgym's Digistamps and Images

My project this week combines Ride ‘m Ryan from Wags ‘n Whiskers

and  a suitcase box template from The Cutting Café

I have made this suitcase for our grandson Ryan.

He loves his aunty’s three King Charles Spaniels so much that at Christmas he asked for a dressing up dog outfit.

As soon as I saw this stamp I thought of him.

The case has his own ‘puppy’ and puppy blanket inside so that he can take it with him wherever he goes.

The image is coloured with Promarkers.

The papers are from the Nitwit collection Tails and Wags

The Ribbon and button is from my stash.

Have fun!

Spring has sprung

Morning Peeps, hope you are all well.

Time for a new challenge over at Incy Wincy and as the title of the post suggests, 

the theme of our challenge is...... 

Spring has Sprung.

Our fantastic sponsors this week are

                                

I have used a pre-coloured image from The Doodle Pantry for a change this week.

The image has been coloured with Promarkers and teamed up with papers from the Nitwits Time for Tea collection.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the sentiment is from LOTV.

The ribbon was from the bargain bin in Hobby Craft – wish I had bought more!

Fantasy time at Natalie and Amy

Good morning all. It’s the end of May already and time for another challenge at Natalie and Amy’s

This month the theme is ‘Fantasy’ and is hosted by Natalie herself.

As usual the prize for this month is a £15 gift voucher to spend in the store.

There are lots of gorgeous stamps that will fit this theme in the shop but I chose ‘Captain Hook’ from Kraftin Kimmie for my DT card.

I love this stamp and think it has loads of potential.

  

I used a plain 6 x 6 card blank

The image as always is coloured with Promarkers.

The fantastic papers are from Lady Sirens Collection over at her Etsy shop.

The shells, hessian and charms are all from my stash.

The sentiment was made on the PC using a freebie banner from the internet – sorry can’t remember where from.

Have fun with this challenge.
