Glitter Me Silly

The challenge colours this week over at Passion for Promarkers are Moss and Poppy. From now on the DT will take it in turns to pick the colour scheme and choose the challenge. This week it was my turn!! Now, the challenge has a twist – not only do you have to use the challenge colours of Moss and Poppy but you must also include something tasty!! Interpret this how you wish!!!

My card turned out completely differently to what I had originally intended. When I chose the colours I had a Christmas theme in my head! Then I got this WOJ stamp and knew I wanted to use that instead. The strawberries are a quickutz die covered in glitter – why not?

Hope to see you over at the blog and can’t wait to check out your creations. We will be giving out a fabulous new blinkie to the top 5 each week – now who wouldn’t want that flashing away on their blogs?! This week it will be my task to pick them – I anticipate this won’t be easy!!

The scrummy prize this week is a £10 voucher from one of my favourite craft shops, Joanna Sheen. So, hop on over to the blog and have a look at the DT’s creations – they are a very talented bunch of ladies over there!

Tuesday means a new challenge over at A Spoonful of Sugar and this week it’s Summer! We want to see summery things on your cards and projects so pop over to the blog for some inspiration from the fabulous DT. I have used a GORGEOUS image by Alota stamps on my card this week. It was very generously sent to me (along with some other gorgeous ones) by my blog buddy Kate – thank you hunny. I have coloured with promarkers and a bit of stickles and the sentiment is a rub on. I thought nothing says summer like a bit of bunting! The papers are from SU – Sweet Always (my favourite).

Pop back later for my Passion For Promarkers DT card. Our colours this week were picked by me – Moss and Poppy (very festive in the middle of the summer eh?)

There is a rather appropriate theme for this week’s challenge over at Cupcake Crafts – It’s Summer, picked by Kathrin. We have had some gorgeous weather in our neck of the woods and as my strawberry plant is now bulging with fruit I was inspired to ink up my fabby SU stamps (Tart and Tangy) and made this card.

I love this stamp set but haven’t used it much since I got it. I don’t know why, it just hasn’t been the right occasion!! Everything on this card is Stampin Up! (except for the rub-on greeting) and I used my Marvy brush markers to ink up the strawberries.

Right, it is Sunday afternoon and I am doing this as a scheduled post. We are entertaining our new neighbours with a barbie in a couple of hours and as the place looks like a bomb’s hit it I’d better skidaddle and get it put right!!

Have a great Monday.
