Stamptacular Sunday challenge - New beginnings

Hi this is my entry for the new challenge blog called Stamptacular Sunday challenge . I made this card for a new baby. I used my angel anya by the greeting farm that I coloured with copics and stardust pens. I then added some prima swirls to my K and co backing paper and my nesties. I added some pearls that I added a sentiment to using rub-ons. I also stamped a sentiment Hello with Hero art stamps.

Colour Create - Lilac and blue

Hello again the kids and Jimmy are at a local museum called The Horniman it has a lovely garden ,a great aquarium, some farm animals and a musical section and some stuffed animals and a section on africa. It s free except for special exhibitions. The challenge at colour create is to use Lilac and blue. So I got my glimmer mists out and created a swirly background ,for my gorjuss girl to sit in, Swirls is an optional extra. I also cuttlebugged some swirls. The other optional extra is ribbon.

Friday sketchers

Hello I have made this for the sketch at Friday sketchers . I find this image quite hard to colour so that was my challenge to me. I love the HOTP vintage papers so I used these and kept the colouring along the vintage theme. A really simple sketch but that is sometimes harder to interpret. I loved this weeks sketch. I am feeling rather strange as one of my brood is missing. She is at brownie camp until sunday. I know she loves going so I am not worried, this is her second one. I hope she is not too cold or ill or missing us, who said I am not worried.

Cute card Thursday! Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Cute card Thursday . I have only been joining in for half of that but have loved every challenge!!! I have made this card for Katharina's sketch. I will send this to my Mum from her grandsons. I have a third ill child and have not felt too perky myself the last few days. Weekend tomorrow phew!!!! I have one off to Brownie camp so have done a bit of cleaning and loads of washing (don't read Joey) and hopefully full on crafting for me over the weekend!!!!!



I made the card with BG and HOTP papers. I coloured Oakley with my new fave copics ciao's. I used some buttons. I made the sentiment with card, nesties and Hero arts sentiment.

Arty girlz challenge - Smile

Hi again, Been to the doc's this morning and both my boys are on antibiotics. One has throat infection and one a chest infection. So I am feeling rather sad. Making this for the Arty girlz challenge ,click link in the sidebar, did make me smile and I feel more cheerful now.

I glimmer misted some K& co paper then I added some embossed swirls. I embossed my new butterfly stamp from the crafty pad ,click the blinkie in my side bar, onto some of the paper too. I made a beaded embellie for the butterfly and them stamped the hero arts sentiment. I can get a bit too fussy sometimes so I kept this very simple. I added half a large flower under the sentiment and half a large flower under the butterfly.

Forever Friends

I thought I would join in with the forever friends challenge this week. It is a sketch a lovely little one. Here is my baby card.

Magnolia vs stampavie -sketch

Awesome sketch over at Magnolia vs stampavie challenge this week. I have used my Sarah kay image. I do love her!!! Must invest in some more. I used copics ( I can see why so many are addicted) and Promarkers. I used HOTP papers and I used prima flowers and a hero arts sentiment. I loved making this card as the sketch is so adorable. We are trying to clear up and it seems to be getting messier!!! I hate it when that happens. I am on here just to irritate OH as we have just had a barney about the tidying. He he!!!! I do love him really and we are the greatest of friends really. Just getting irritated as we are tired and stuff.

All is forgiven and Basic Grey challenge

He redeemed himself he brought me pie and mash from Manzes on Tower bridge road .... if you come to London this is the bestest pie and mash shop I have been to. I have been to one in Tooting, one on brick lane and a few around Bermondsey, where i now live and this is by far the best. Pie and mash is not the most exotic food but it is hearty and filling on a day like today. I like chilli vinegar with mine. My eldest son is flaked out on the settee he has a temprature and he says his head hurts. A virus is the diagnosis if you go to a medical proffessional. I have made this card for the basic grey challenge ,which is a sketch. I used my new copic ciao's and I prefer them to promarkers so will be investing in some more so I can improve my technique. I used the two scoops papers and I used stella ruby paper too. I seem to keep on using this image from the whiff of joy spring collection she is just endearing for some reason. We are gonna have a big clear up now to get ready for the inspector!!!

Men never ask them to do something! oh and Sketch Saturday

Well bless him.....we needed a sideboard out of ikea. We went a few weeks back and picked it out. He went to get it today and picked the wrong colour up!!! We are gonna keep it cos when we move it won't matter that it is the wrong colour. The thing is he asked me last night what colour and I told him and he still didn't get it. They could never be domestic goddesses! He he. I have made this very vibrant card for the saturday sketch challenge. I used gorjuss girl stamp and I added the little cat. I like the way he is peeping over the flowers and she is emerging from the flowers. I ordered some copics and they have just arrived so the next card will feature these.
