Passion For ProMarkers #24 – Grass and Canary

Week 24 -  grass and canary

The colours this week over at Passion For ProMarkers have been picked by our lovely GDT Manda and she is asking us to use Grass and Canary.  I actually struggled a bit with these colours and my first two attempts ended up in the bin!  Not because they don’t go together or I don’t like them, they are just not “my colours” so my mojo was a bit flat!  In the end I went with this cute little Manga fairy from Sugar Nellie and made a Christmas card of all things!!  I may need to add something more to it to make it more Christmassey but I’m just not sure what!!

Well, hope you manage to hop on over to the blog and check out the other creations by the rest of the DT.  This is another scheduled post as I’m on holiday  so I’ll be a bit quiet around blogland this week!

Hugs for now,

Cupcake Crafts #64 – My sketch!

 

Challenge 64 - Caryn's sketch

Hopefully I am now enjoying a hard-earned break up in the Lake District at Centerparcs and have scheduled this post which you are now reading (with any luck!!).  For this week’s Cupcake Crafts challenge I have created a sketch.  I hope you like it and even though I say so myself, I enjoyed making my card with it!!   The butterfly is not a requirement, I just wanted to put something other than a flower on it!  As you can see from my card, I have substituted it for a snowflake.  The image is from Mo’s Digital Pencil and is called “Skating”.  Well, have fun with this week’s challenge and I will think about you all while I’m splashing in the pool and eating out every night!!!! Check out the blog for some fab inspiration from the DT.

Look what we did today!!

halloween 2009 For me Halloween comes a close second only to Christmas.  I love all the hype and every time I watch those American movies with all the houses decorated to the hilt it makes me so wish it was a bigger thing over here.    We carved 5 pumpkins this morning – one for every child and tomorrow we are having a big party and going around our road (there are only 9 houses!) trick or treating.  I can’t wait although I haven’t got everything prepared just yet – it’ll be fine though – I’m sure!! 

 

Happy Halloween
