Passion For Promarkers #4 – Berry Red and Royal Blue

15.06.2009 by 10 Comments
Tuesday challenge
It’s time for a new challenge over at Passion For Promarkers and this week the colours we want to see are Berry Red and Royal Blue. I was a tad worried when I first set out to make this card as these colours are not ones I would normally put together. However, when I started to see what the other DT members were coming up with I felt inspired and came up with mine!!

I have used a Greeting Farm digi download, Dorothy Anya (sans the dog!) and been quite simple with the colouring this week sticking to the main challenge colours on the dress and then a mixture of vanilla, mustard and a touch of cocoa for the hair. The papers are from a DCWV stack I bought on QVC. Our prize this week is from Whimsy Stamps and is a gorgeous Princess Emma stamp.



Ok, this is a quick one as I didn’t get time to schedule this post and am meant to be in the car on the way to the dentist right now!!

Will pop back later with my Spoonful of Sugar card!!

Cupcake Crafts Challenge #44 – Father’s day (more than a card).

15.06.2009 by 7 Comments

Ok, so I know I never read the brief properly and yes, this IS just a card!! I was so pleased with myself for getting it finished but when I went to upload it into the DT folder I realised what I had done!! Oh well, that’ll teach me! I have used a digi stamp from Digi Stamp Boutiqie. I’ve printed him a few times and then layered him up for a bit of dimension. He’s coloured with promarkers and the sentiment is made with some good, old-fashioned peel off letters!

The other DT members have actually managed to learn to read properly and made some amazing creations so pop over to Cupcake Crafts for a look. We also have a fabulous prize this week which is a $40 voucher for Peachy Keen Stamps.

Right, it’s my second youngest’s 5th birthday today (Happy Birthday Sophie) and I have a wee bit to do for her little birthday tea later. It’s not her party till next week so we’re just having a little family thing today. Also, my SiL has been in labour since Saturday so we’re also all on pins waiting for some good news there too.

Hopefully be back later with the result!!!

Hugs,

Charisma Cards Guest DT – Something Yummy!

12.06.2009 by 51 Comments

As I said the other day, I have been picked to be a GDT over at the fabby Charisma Cards challenge blog and the first of my two challenges is “Something Yummy”! I Love this gorgeous Pink Gem stamp and have used my Dahlia nesties to make the card base. The patterned paper is from the Sweet Stack by DCWV and the ribbons from Raspberry Ribbons. She is coloured with promarkers and the ice-cream is all glittery but you can’t really tell!! The other DT members have done some gorgeously yummy creations so pop on over for a wee look. There is also a great prize from The Cutting Cafe.

Ok, must be off, have a busy afternoon ahead of me and a mountain of HW to do!

Hugs,
