Cute Daisy May - Love

Happy 2010 everyone, I hope you all had a good one and are not feeling the after effects too badly. Ok, I shall speak very quietly then.

The first challenge of the year at CDM is to create a card based on Love. I have used one of Linnie's brand new images and aren't they just so cute.

Cute Daisy May - Green & Gold

Morning everyone, happy Monday.

This week over at Cute Daisy May the challenge was to make a Green and Gold card. I decided to do one using Linnie's cute little Baby images as I thought it would be lovely for Luke's First Christmas card.

I brought the image into photoshop and added a circular sentiment and border, printed it out and coloured with promarkers. I then matted it on to a nestie cutout. All the papers I have used are again from the new collection by Bearly Mine Designs called Christmas Frolics.

It would be lovely to see you play along with the challenge as we love to see what you create, and don't forget, you don't even have to use a CDM image, and you never know, you could be the winner this week.

Thanks for stopping by.

Polkadoodle Challenge

This week over at Polkadoodles the challenge is to make a card with an envelope format, and after seeing this cute little image over at Digital Delights thought how perfect it would be for this challenge. I coloured the image with my promarkers and then scaled my background paper from Bearly Mine using the computer to add an insert to my envelope. The lovely ticket sentiment was another freebie from Bizzy Becs.

Hope you have a good week .

Thank God it is Friday again. I really don't know where the time is going at the moment with Christmas jut around the corner. Are you all ready? I'm not, I only have 1 present so far so am really going to have to get a move on. At least the good thing thing is I know what I am wanting to get for everyone which helps.

Well on to my card, I decided to do another Easel card as I really love this shape. I have once again used papers from Bearly Mine Designs as these are just so pretty along with some co-ordinating Pink Petticoat ones too. I stamped a lovely Tilda image and coloured her in using my Promarkers mounted her onto pop dots, added a computer generated sentiment and there you have it.

Have a great weekend everyone and look forward to sharing some more with you soon.

Lily Boo - December Challenge & New Image Sheets

This month over at Lily Boo Too the challenge is "Paper Piecing" and as you will recently remember, I gave you a sneaky peak of a new collection called Gingerbreads that Sam was going to be adding to the boutique. Well while I was away these were added and they are just fantastic at £1.99 for 6. So with these in mind I decided to use another one of them for my challenge card, Isn't he just adorable and so cheeky looking. I have paper pieced the cute little ginger along with the pot base and ribbon using papers from Donna's (Bearly Mine Crafts), new collection called Christmas Frolics, they are really great.

The second card is the full reveal of my sneaky peak, hope it has given you some inspiration.

Lily Boo November Challenge

Can you believe another month has gone by and we are only a couple of weeks away now from Christmas. I just don't know where the time is going at the moment and I haven't even started doing my Christmas shopping. This is going to be a very busy month for me as I have my MIL and Dad's birthdays plus I am off to Malta for a week and Benn is off on a school trip too so I need to get a bit of a move on I feel.

Onto this month's Lily-Boo Too challenge. This month we decided on a colour challenge and decided on PURPLE. So don't be shy, pop on over to the Lily-Boo Too Challenge blog and play along as we would love to see your creations.

Here is my one using one of Sam's fabulous Christmas Scenes which is on collection 23. The background papers I have used are from a talented lady called Donna from Bearly Mine Designs. These are all from the Designer Extreme Volume III CD and what I love is that it also includes inserts. This was such a simple card to do by using these backing papers, I just manipulated my snowman image straight onto the backing paper, added a sentiment and then printed it out, coloured the image with promarkers and matted it onto a card base and it was done. A great CD for when time is short.

Well hope you like it and thanks again for visiting as it really means a lot that you take the time to pop over and especially the lovely comments you leave me.
