Yesterday's Sweet Stampin DT card

Oh I'm so behind this week, where has the time gone? Here's my DT card for yesterday's Sweet Stampin challenge, which this week is a colour combo:

As always with our colour challenges you can choose any three of the four colours, or use all four, and you don't have to use SU! colours, a close match is fine.

I've used three on my card - Barely Banana, Sage Shadow & Blush Blossom. There's no DP on my card, it's a stamped background, I've used the two-step stamp set (try saying that quickly 10 times! LOL) Greenhouse Garden, and stamped out the flowes using the Banana & Blush together, I was amazed how well it worked. Here's the rest of the details:

Stamps - Garden Whimsy; Greenhouse Garden; Hello Again (sentiment)

Cardstock & ink - in colours above plus Whisper White cardstock

Ribbon - Fairy Tale Originals (retired)

Other - Eyelet Border punch; Tab punch

Non SU! - Embossing folder & flower from stash

Hope you can join in this week, not only is there the chance to win the monthly prize - generously donated by Stacey our sponsor, but Emma's also offering to send a winner a selection of stamped images if we get over 50 entries this week - so come on - do your best!

I've used the sketch from In Love With Stamping, only problem is the challenge ended this morning, so I've sort of missed the boat there! Oh well, it was a good sketch.

Hope you're all having a lovely Mothering Sunday, I've been spoilt, had a beautiful card - handmade of course - from my gorgeous Georgia, she raided my stash yesterday and I just loved the card she made me - will get a piccie up - and also she gave me Michael Buble's album, ummm ummm love The Buble! We went out for coffee this morning and ended up having brunch in one of my favourite places in Ironbridge - so diet went well & truly out of the window with bacon & scambled eggs on toast, oh it was delicious! Oh well, there's always tomorrow!

Charisma #53 and blog hop winner!

Good morning! Ooh it's a chilly one, hope you're not snowed in wherever you are, we've missed the worst of it in Shropshire and have had some snow but not like the rest of the country, we're still all shivering here though - it's freezing.

Right enough blab and onto the important things, a huge thank you to everyone who took part in our blog hop at Charisma last week, it was a fantastic response and as always we're so grateful for all your support.

The winners of the big prizes have been announed as well as the DT's winners, so hop on over to Charisma for a look, for my candy I used Random Org, which was very easy to use, but I can't work out how to put a picture of the draw on here? So you'll have to trust me!

So - drumroll please - my winner is no. 91 and that's Becky - whoop, whoop - contact me on my email hun (on my left sidebar) with your address so I can get your prize off you to.

Now onto this week's challenge, Carly has set a colour challenge and wants to see:

Pink, Brown, Toffee & Cream

So over to you & lets see some more fab work!

Hubby's Christmas Card

This is the card I've made for my hubby for Christmas, I wanted it to be "lovey dovey" but not too slushy, so I've gone for brown & orange with a hint of pink and just the 2 love hearts, so I think that should be ok!

The Pink Elephant - Christmas

One Stop Craft - Christmas Love

Stampin' Up! used:

Stamp (heart) - Hello Again

Ink - Pretty in Pink; Basic Black

Cardstock - Chocolate Chip; Pumpkin Pie; Whisper White

DSPs - Sweet Always (retired)

Ribbon - Chocolate Chip

SU! Markers - Pretty in Pink

Other:

Stamp - Hanglar; ProMarkers, Glitter

Not a brilliant photo as it's really dull here!
