Happy New Year! :)

Hello there! Happy New Year to you all, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year :) I hope you got lots of lovely crafting goodies for Christmas! I was the very lucky recipient of an Ebosser which I love! I also got some gorgeous stamps and Nestabilities- lots to play with! :)

I am popping by today to remind you that the current challenge at Little Claire's is 'Happy New Year', so make sure you go on over to the blog and join us :)

Here is the card I created for the challenge, which I haven't gotten around to blogging until now!- I will try to be better with my blog this year but I can't promise anything ;)

This is a small card I have made using 'Georgina's Rosettes' and 'Sunshine Sentiments', both from Little Claire's. The 'Happy New Year' sentiment is from LOTV.  The papers are from My Mind's Eye, gems from my stash :) x

Christmas is Nearly Here! :)

Hi there, hope you have all had a lovely weekend, no doubt sorting all those last minute bits for Christmas :) I think i'm just about sorted, so time to relax! :)

I'm here to show you some more Christmas creations that I should have already blogged but haven't!

Firstly, this card:

A very simple card but something a bit different for me! I have made this card using 'Christmas Tags' from Little Claire's, stamped onto papers from Craft Creations and inked with pale blue ink. I have used twine, ribbon, lace and pearls from my stash to complete the card. I have stamped snowflakes in pale brown ink onto the Kraft card blank, although they don't show up in the photo!

For this card I have used the Christmas Tags, along with the cute 'Penguin Stuart', both from Little Claire's. I have coloured the image with ProMarkers and cut it out with Nestabilities. Again the papers are from Craft Creations and the edges are inked with pale blue ink. Pearls from my stash :) 

I would like to enter my cards in the following challenges:

Time for a Catch Up!

I was looking through my photos of cards I have made today and I was surprised at how many DT cards I have made over the last new months that I haven't got around to blogging! Things are so hectic at the moment, I find it really hard to find the time to sit down and share my cards, so I have written myself a list (it is a long list!) and I am going to try to catch up a bit! :)

So today I am starting with this card:

This was a DT card I made for a challenge over at Sweet Stampin',  using a a fun digi from Bugaboo Stamps, coloured with ProMarkers then mounted on pale blue and teal cardstock. The sentiment is from LOTV and the papers are Craft Creations. I have used my current favourite die, the corner bow die from Memory Box (I was very proud of myself today as I managed to make 3 cards without using this die! It seems to be on every card I make at the moment!). Pearls from my stash :)

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:
Craft Your Passion #139- Snow
I Love ProMarkers #146 - Anything Goes
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by! :) x
