Hello I have scheduled this post to go live today as I am in Surrey doing some market research work. I  am soooo excited as today is the 1st Challenge over at Natalie and Amy's Challenge!!!!!

Our theme "Anything Goes" a nice easy theme to kickstart our monthly challenges there are some fabby prizes to be won.. If you have not been to the SHOP please hop on over to check out all the brilliant goodies available.



I decided to make a necklace, giftbox and card for a christmas gift. All the products I used are from Natalie and Amy's Shop! To make my card and gift box I used images from the Mulberry Wood CD rom. There are so many adorable images on here it was hard to choose. I then made the necklace using the fab Jewellery Starter Kit I added some ribbon from my stash.

Trick or Treat

Hi I have been on the  DT at Delicious Doodles Challenge since it's creation 3 years ago. I love working with the great spectrum of cute to dark images that Teri doodles. I have to say my   favourite ones are the Emo images, Mermaids and Fairies. I decided to play with some of Teri's more darker images this weekend to create some Treats for Halloween.








I made some unique note pads to jot down information whilst you are on the phone and such like.


I am looking forward to the challenges starting again on September 7th and hope you will play along with us xxx

Trying something new... xxx

Hi hope you are all keeping well. Did you enjoy the ceremony last night. It was a fantastic fun party. I could just see the fireworks from my bedroom window. Highlight for me Gary Barlow singing so brilliantly after his recent tragedy amazing. I am just sharing a card I made with you. I wanted to try a new technique and this is the first time I have done this so please there are some mistakes and it needs to be worked on.

All the products I used are from the very gorgeous Natalie and Amy's craft shop are listed below. The memento desert beige ink is the only product not from the shop. I hope you can pop over to the new challenge page. The  new challenge is starting on August 30th so we would love you to follow us so you don't miss anything. There is also CANDY available to be won.

The new technique is to use a very light ink like Memento Desert sand to print your image so it gives the illusion of no lines. I did this directly to card too. I will need practise for sure but I am happy to have finally given it a go.

Products used 

Stamp - Sweet Elin frog on flower (Nellie Snellen) and Studio G Alphabet stamps
Buttons - Back to Basics mine buttons
Stickles - stickles



Challenges I am entering are

Fat pages and cards with Attitude  - Add texture or Anything Goes
Love to Create - Sparkle

Maid of the Riverbank

Hello I am just blogging this great new release from Delicious Doodles (keep an eye out for her instore) she is called Maid of the Riverbank. Isn't she just adorable and so is the cute otter on her back. I coloured her with Spectrum Noirs  which I now love after getting used to them. I used this gorgeous 6 by 6 square scalloped card blank from Natalie and Amy's shop. My bottom layer is a papermania capsule paper also from Natalie and Amy's.
I then used some DCWV papers from the Mariosa stack to add layers. I added my gorgeous image and created sentiment DREAM from the papers and some dovecraft letters from Natalie and Amy's store. Finally I added some stickles to the tail and as an embellishment and I added some glossy accents to the jewellery and the tail.



I am entering the following challenges with this card.
Deep Ocean Challenge - Anything Goes
My Time to craft - Fantasy
