Sweet Stampin' Challenge No. 16

Sophie's Birthday

Good morning, here's my DT card for our challenge over at Sweet Stampin, the theme this week is "Something for a child" It was my step-grandaughter's 2nd birthday this week and I made this card for her, it's a bit busy for me, but should appeal to a two year old.

The unicorn, no. 2 and name have all been cut out on the Cricut and the butterfly is punched out using an SU! punch and matching stamp.

Here's the details:
Stamps - SU! Flight of the Butterfly, Simply Said (tiny flowers in background)
DSPs - Sweet Always
Cardstock - SU! Ballet Blue; Pixie Pink; Bashful Blue; Real Red; Green Galore; Basic Black; Whisper White
Bling & Ribbon from stash

We've got a new sponsor this month - Stacey, who is an independant SU! Demonstrator and she's very kindly giving away a fab prize of a Darling Dots stamp set:


I'm entering my card into the following challenges:

Lily of the Valley - Easel Card

Thanks for looking and hope you can join in this week

Project Tuesday Challenge - Double Pocket Bag

I love making cards, but it's always nice to try something different & the challenge over at Project Tuesday was to create this bag, following some easy to follow instructions & this is my design.

I've used Stampin' Up! Sweet Always DSP for the bag & the matting & layering, the stamp and sentiment are also SU, from the set "Birthday Best" and I've finished it with some pink ribbon & a pink flower embellishment from my stash, to pick out the pink on the paper.

It's a really sweet, and quite sturdy little bag and would make a lovely little gift bag - have to decide who to give it to now!

Just Magnolia - Challenge No. 1


Just Magnolia is a new challenge blog with a fantastic prize for the winner of the first challenge, so I thought I'd give it a go, although at the time of posting this I'm entry no. 295 - eek! It's proving rather popular then! Oh well, I love my Tilda stamps even though I only have a few and this is my favourite one, I've got a friend's birthday coming up next week and I'm sure she'll like this card.


I've used Stampin' Up! Watercolour Crayons for most of the image and SU Markers on her shoes, buttons & flower headband: Pretty in Pink; Perfect Plum; Barely Banana; Garden Green; Cameo Coral and Chocolate Chip. The cardstock is SU Perfect Plum & the DSP's are also SU from the gorgeous "Sweet Always" set. The sentiment is from the SU set "Fun & Fast Notes" and the flowers are Making Memories.

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.
