Quickie card and A WINNER!!!!

Hi all – just a very quick post from me (time is very against me today!!) to share a quick card and announce a winner!  So, card first..

keep calm and eat cake (1)I’ve kept it very simple and coloured the cupcake (From Tasty Treats by Clearly Besotted) quite subtly with ProMarkers and then swooshed it with a touch of Wink of Stella Crystal.  I love that sentiment!

Birthday Blog Hop BannerSo, onto the winner of the Set The Scene stamp set as randomly chosen from the 325 (!!!) comments left on the post HERE.  So, the lucky person winning the set is …………………….

Well done Margaret, I am delighted that you are able to add this set to your collection – I’m sure you’ll create some stunning cards this Christmas.  Pop your details in an email and Steph will make sure your set is whisked off to you in no time!

Snowglobes are not just for Christmas!!

Hi there.  Here to share a card I’ve been planning on making since I first saw the Set The Scene stamps set from Clearly Besotted.  I knew it would make a great shaker card so that’s what I’ve made today!

I’ve used the snowglobe die with stamps from the Tasty Treats stamp set and filled the shaker part with cupcake sprinkles.  It was fiddly to make but I’ve realised a few things whilst creating it that will make it work better for me next time!!

I’m entering this into the General Craft Supplies challenge over at Moxie fab World too!  I was looking at some of the entries so far – very cool ideas there!!

Thanks for popping in.

Season’s Greeting!

Good morning – it’s back to work today after a busy weekend – my 13 year old daughter had 6 friends over for a sleepover – very late night – they NEVER stop talking!!  I did however just have time to whip up this little number using (one of the few sets yet to sell out) Pretty Poinsettia from the brand new release from Clearly Besotted.  (By the way, there is still time to join in the Birthday Blog Hop – just go here for the details).

ImageProxy.mvcThe embossing paste has been out again too – love this trend at the moment!

Thanks for popping by and have a happy Monday whatever you’re up to!

Hugs,
