A Spoonful of Sugar #63 – Floral Fantasy

challenge 63 - Floral Fantasy

This week over at ASOS the challenge title is Floral Fantasy so as I’m sure EVERYONE has something flowery in their stash – punches, dies, Primas, silk flowers, papers etc, then there should be no shortage of players.  The DT have come up trumps too so there’s plenty of inspiration over on the blog.

My card is a little different to what I’ve been making lately in that it doesn’t have a stamped image on it.  I have used my new fabulous Retro Flower punches from Crafts U Love and my favourite Raspberry Fizz papers from Papertrey Ink (from my bud Steph of course) – I’ve made these go a long way but may just have to get some more now!  I’ve also used my other latest acquisition – my Oval All stamps and punches from Stampin Up.

I have actually sent this card to Steph to say thank you for the gorgeous gift (see Friday’s post) she sent me last week – I hope she gets the card before she sees this mind you!!!  lol.

Byeee!

Cupcake Crafts # 51 – Beach

Our theme over at Cupcake Crafts this week has been picked by Sandy and she wants to see something “beachy”!  There’s a real summery feel to all of the DT cards this week so pop on over for a look.  We have a fabulous prize on offer too this week from the Little Yellow Company of a free digi download.

challenge 51 - beach

I have used a sweet C.C Designs digi which I got from All That Scraps.  She’s coloured with ProMarkers and then stickled.  The papers are Stampin Up.

Well, as you read this I am hopefully on my up the the Lakes for a few days.  Knowing us we are still at home running round like eejits still packing!  We will get there eventually though.

I have my other DT cards scheduled for tomorrow but other than that I’ll probably be a bit quiet for this week (phew!).

Be good!

Hugs,
