In the mean time I have all my fingers and toes crossed hoping to win one from Heidi !X

Stamp Something/Papertake weekly Challenge

I had to make a thank you card today for someone and came across a new challenge site called Stamp Something and this weeks challenge is to make a thank you card. I love the colours lime and lilac so decided to also enter the Papertake Weekly Callenge this weeks theme being "Lucious Lime And Lilac". So I made one card which fit both challenges and here it is!

Ismaki Callenge and Fathers day Card Number 1

This photo has come out a little dark as it as been such a dull day today after all the lovely sunshine we have had lately. Anyway I have made this today for fathers day using this weeks Ismaki sketch and my new Penny Black stamp "Aren't You Lovely".

Phew! - It's a warm one!

Too hot today to make cards! I have done my house work and now there is only one thing left to do and that is go make a bacardi and coke and sit in the garden! The chances of me making a card that isn't wonky after that is pretty slim so I will leave the card making for today lol!X

Fabs Big Christmas Challenge

My April entry for Fabs Big Christmas Challenge . I made this using Pink Petticoats "Lola Rose Occasions" , background paper and "Girly Curly sentiments". Watercoloured with Jelly Roll Stardust Pens and stickles glue added after for extra sparkle.

Thought I would add this one too as I think it fits the bill.It's a card I made some time ago of my little dog Gem which I doodled myself. She is wearing a jewel on her collar too!
