Father’s Day!

Just a quickie I made tonight – as it’s now after 2 in the morning I have nothing to say but GOODNIGHT!! (and sorry about the blurry picture!)

Ok, have re-done the photo in daylight!! Was a bit bleary-eyed last night after a mega-clear up sesh!!

Didn’t get to bed till after 3 am – what was I thinking? My card is done with a fab digi stamp from Digi Stamp Boutique – BBQ Jim. He’s coloured with my trusty promarkers ant the papers are the gorgeous Stampin Up “Washington Apple”.

Right, off for another coffee – if I don’t keep myself topped up with caffeine today I will probably be dead by mid-afternoon!!

Charisma Cards Guest DT – Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend.

It’s my second week as a GDT over at Charisma Cards and this week the challenge is to use diamonds (they don’t have to be real!!) on your card. This is right up my street as I adore all things sparkly and it gave me the perfect excuse to use these gorgeous gem snowflakes I’ve had for ages. This is my favourite of the new Miss Anya trio and for the first time ever I have attempted darker skin. I think I need more practice TBH!!

She is coloured with Promarkers and I’ve used that puffy stuff you heat! As you can probably tell I’ve forgotten what it’s called!! I have put a rub on “Merry Christmas” on there – 10 points to anyone who spots it though!!!

By the way, did anyone notice that cheeky little extra column that’s appeared on my blog?? My Promarker and Cupcake teamie Ida sent me a link to a fab tutorial and hey presto, I managed to follow it!! Now if I can just learn to read challenge rules properly I might be on to something, lol!!

Ok, have a great day all. Have stacks to do – as always!
Hugs,

A Spoonful of Sugar #56 – Sketch by Michelle,

We have a lovely sketch to follow this week over at A Spoonful of Sugar created by the gorgeous Michelle. The DT have all done fabulous cards with it so pop over to the blog for a look. We also have a great prize on offer from the Character Cafe. Here is my card featuring one of the gorgeous new Anya stamps. She coloured with promarkers and the paper is Doodlebug. The ribbon and felt flowers came from this months gorgeous kit from Raspberry Ribbons.

Right, on with the housework (boo hoo).
