A Spoonful of Sugar #52 – Celebration

CELEBRATION
A Spoonful of Sugar is 1 today!
A very easy challenge for you all this week over at A Spoonful of Sugar so I hope we get lots of entries. I try to look at all of them every week (although I don’t always have time to comment on every one) and love looking at the different ideas you all come up with. This week we want to see a card for a Celebration. This can be for any occasion -birthday, wedding, anniversary, baby etc, etc – the world is your lobster!!!
There are a whole HEAP of prizes to be won this week so if ever there was a week to get your card in there, this is the one!!

I have used my Stampin Up! “Crazy for Cupcakes” set which I LOVE. I have coloured the image with my Promarkers (cinnamon, rose, satin, apricot, poppy) and pp is from the Sweet Stack by DCWV. I have glamour dusted the image too (hard to see) and so I am entering this card in this weeks Secret Crafter challenge -which is my favourite thing of all GLITTER!!

There are some amazing creations from the DT this week too and we have two lovely GDT’s – Marlou and Deb (previous DT members).

Looking forward to seeing all your creations.

Hugs,

Cupcake Crafts Challenge 40 – Donna’s Sketch

Fabulous DT member Donna (Donna’s Doodles) has created this gorgeous sketch for our challenge this week over at Cupcake Crafts. It’s such an easy one to follow so have a look over on the blog for the DT’s take on it. There are some beautiful creations as always and a real variety of ideas.

This is my interpretation of Donna’s sketch. I have used Stampin Up! papers, card and the stamps are from the Forest Friends set – sooo cute.

Thanks for looking. Have a great day.

I’m exhausted!

No card to share today I’m afraid. It has been a busy weekend all in all. Today my daughter Olivia made her first holy communion and my youngest Pippa got christened!! It was a gorgeous day weather wise which was a great relief to us all because the kids could all play around the garden!! I wore a pair of shoes I only ever get out for such occasions and as predicted my feet are now throbbing! They’ll now go back in the bottom of the wardrobe for another year!

Oh, I am excited to say I made the top 5 over at Stamp With Us this week so I have a shiny new flashing thing to put on my sidebar – yay!!

Off to rub my own feet…
