My DT card for Emergency Crafter's Challenge.......

Hello my lovelies,

time is just whizzing by!

We have another challenge over at the

Emergency Crafters

with the theme of

'Spring Flowers'

I love flowers, they always cheer me up and I think make a room look so cheery and colourful too.

I have used the

Polkadoodles Sugarplum Daisy CD

for my card, using just the roses from the cd. I have embellished with a lace bow and a heart pin and Stickles Glitter Glue in Diamond!

I would love to see your creations for this challenge, and please don't forget to spread the word and get your friends to follow Emergency Crafters and join in too!

Have fun and happy crafting,

lots of love

Belles Strawberry Tea - one of my favourite stamps.....

Hello lovelies I hope you are all keeping well.

I have been very busy with lots of lovely design team work and scrapbooking too! Somewhere in between though I managed to create a card to enter into some fab blog challenges.

I have used one of my favourite stamps it is

Belles n Whistles Stamp/Elisabeth Bell - Belles Strawberry Tea

 I absolutely love these stamps, so gorgeous.

The backing papers and sentiment I have used from the first edition of the Polkadoodles Pen & Paper Circle Club.

I love gauze in projects and think it suits the image really well.

I have coloured the image using my Letraset Flexmarkers in shades...

Tea Rose/Antique White/Sunkissed Pink/Light Fawn/Cappuccino/Sandstone/Nutmeg/Saddle Brown/Apple/Cool Aqua/Aquamarine/Duck Egg/Glacier Blue/Watermelon/Amaranth Red

I have used a  pearl trim at the base of the image and a border punch on the edge of the white strawberry paper. I have embellished with flowers, dew drops a silver heart bead. pins, lace and self-adhesive pearls.

I am entering this into the following challenges.....

The Poodles Parlour - Anything Goes Challenge

The Ribbon Girl Colour Challenge 17 Aqua & White

I hope you like this card and thanks for looking.

Have fun and happy crafting,

Hello lovelies, here I am again! LOL

I just wanted to show you all my TV Samples that I have made for the pick of the day shows that were on Ideal World and Create & Craft. Nikky Hall from Polkadoodles did a Letraset Pick Of The Day but also launched her new cd too!

My DT card for Polkadoodles.....

Hello lovelies and a very happy Friday. As usual time is flying by and the clocks go forward this week-end!

So Friday brings us another fabulous challenge over at the

Polkadoodles Challenge Blog

The theme this week is to make a creation with mum in mind!

For my creation this week I have used the

Polkadoodles Paper Boutique Volume 3 CD

and here is what I have made...

I have also embellished the card with Card Candi, buttons and Stickles Glitter Glue. The ribbon is to form the apron strings!

I love this card as it reminds me of my childhood when I used to bake every Sunday afternoon using my mum's good old Bero Book which I still have. I had to bake almost everything in it lol and my mum and dad enjoyed trying the samples very much!

I hope you can join us for the challenge I would love to see your 'MUM' creations.

Thanks for looking and have a great week-end,

have fun and happy crafting,

lots of love
