Finally got around to entering the Cupcake Craft Challenge, I aim to every week, but somehow never seem to get around to it, I'm only just in the nick of time now as it closes tomorrow. So here's my entry, the theme was Thanks & I've used the sweet little bird from the Stampin' Up! set Fun & Fast Notes, the rest is all Stampin' Up! too, except for the punch for the flower.

Ribbon - Certainly Celery

SU! Markers - Apricot Appeal; Certainly Celery

Off to walk the dog now, as the sun's shining for the moment, but it's a bit in & out & showery today!

Challenge 36 - Patchwork

Good morning, it's Thursday, so it must be Charisma Challenge day. It's my turn to set the challenge this week and I've gone for the theme "Patchwork". You can intrepret this how you wish, I was going to cut up small squares for my backing paper, but when I came across this beautiful digi-paper by Summertime Designs, I knew I wanted to use this instead (a lot less fiddly too!). Apologies for the poor photo quality it was so bright and sunny yesterday (amazingly) that I struggled to get a photo that wasn't over exposed! Honestly you can't win sometimes, in real life the yellow is a much richer, golden yellow.

The image is a beautiful Sarah Kay image that I recieved in a swap, which I've coloured with ProMarkers, the sentiment is Stampin' Up! from the set "Simply Said", cardstock SU! Whisper White and Brocade Blue, flowers cut with a X-cut flower punch, brads, ribbon & heart charm all from my stash.

Hope you can all join in this week, we've got a fab prize from Squiggle Stamps who are our sponsors this week.

Fred She Said meets Little Paper Shop

My missing mojo seems to have returned after a three day break - think it went away for it's hols, didn't even send me a postcard - sniff!

Anyway, made a card this afternoon following the sketch at Little Paper Shop & the gorgeous freebie from Fred She Said, which is the first thing I've made in days.

I've coloured the image with PM's and a bit of chalk underneath the pot (it's not a dirty smudge) and used Stampin' Up! for the rest - cardstock Always Artichoke & Pretty in Pink, matching DSP's from the set Tea & Crumpets. The sentiment is from the set "Simply Said" and I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to link it up across the centre of the heart. Photo's a bit wonky, but the card is straight in real life!

Little Paper Shop meets Tuesday Taggers

Comined another two challenges with this card, Little Paper Shop was the sketch and Tuesday Taggers were asking for Friendship & Sentiments on your projects. I always feel like I should make a tag for Tuesday Taggers, even though you can make anything, so I made the tag & then added it to a card! TT have a great prize this week, sponsored by:

Mojo Monday - Challenge 81

This is my card for this week's challenge, which was an interesting sketch and I really enjoyed putting this card together.

Have just about gone all Stampin' Up! for this card, which made it easy to co-ordinate. The two flower images and the sentiment are from the set "Simply Said" which is a favourite of mine, the DPs are from the collection "Sweet Always" and the cardstock is Chocolate Chip. The only non SU items are the brads and the ribbon, which are from my stash.

Apologies for the poor photo, bit overcast here this morning, but if you click on the photo for the larger image, you can see the images & sentiment more clearly.
