Sugar Bowl Challenge 13

Hullo, Hullo,
Are you frazzled? Oh my lordy it is hot who needs to go on holiday, how glorious it is!!
This challenge is one I would not miss out on purely for my love of Kraft, unfortunately I did not have a Kraft base card that was big enough otherwise I would of used it.
The sketch is Lilian's and you can see it here at Sugar Bowl and for participating one lucky blogger gets to win Gorguss Girls set 3 - how cool is that, it would be rude not too!!! :)
Obviously I have chosen to use a gorguss girl with her sweet puddy tat, and I have paper pieced her dress if you look closely with coordinating papers, she too has lil leaves on her dress, the papers are Imaginesce Wild Things collection - Pandamonium and Zopophabet. I am loving these papers at the moment especially as they have the Kraft colour on them.
The flowers on the paper matched perfectly with my flower punch so I have used these with coordinating colours.
I have a lot of birthdays this month so will be pretty busy churning out the cards but I don't mind as it is an excuse to craft and my cellar is lovely and cool - must remember to turn my stereo up though as the minute I go down there, literally I here Muuuummm or Sue but one things for sure the lazy blighters will not come and see me just shout from the bottom of their lungs until I come running!!!
Does this ring a bell with anyone???

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

Hullo, Hullo,

What a glorious day, it is hot, hot, hot!!

When I awoke this morning I knew it was gonna be a busy busy day so I browsed the web early while everyone was tucked up in bed and came across this sketch over at Penny Black Saturday Challenge and what a super one it is, this is one I will use over and over.

I chose the stamp "Greetings" and used Bo Bunny papers "Gift of Love" along with a flower punch, Labels 4 and ribbons from stash. Not forgetting of course my trusty Doodlebug jewels!!

I coloured in with my copics and took the photo outside as it is a lovely day!

Hope you like it, enjoy the rest of your weekend and remember your sunscreen!

Anyone for Cake?

Hullo, Hullo,

Anyone for cake?

Man I Luurrrve Da Cake!! Isn't that just the best catchphrase from Little Britain when they do the fat fighters sketch - it crack's me up!!

Yet another card from me with an Elzybell, this one is from the Just Desserts clear set along with the sentiment, I must admit I could pick these stamps all the time to do my cards but I do have lots of others so it is only fair they all get to see a bit of ink lol :)

There has been lots going on over at the Elzybells blog and lots of candy to be given away.

The talented Kim Fee is giving away great Elzybell candy at the moment, do pop along and take a look - make sure you have a cup of tea though you will be there for the night her cards are scrummy!!

Hope to be back over the weekend and visit all your fab blogs, enjoy yourself whatever you may be doing and I hope the weather holds out.

Elzybells Birthday Challenge!

Hullo, Hullo,

I have been waiting all week to get round to participating in Elzybells Birthday Challenge and I finally grabbed a lil bit of me time for my creation. It is Elzybells 1st blog birthday and Elizabeth has set a challenge to create something other than a card and there is a fab prize of £15 to spend on goodies!!, so I decided to transform a pail as these make a lovely gift especially once they are filled with goodies!

Here is the lid of the pail and I have used nestabilitie circles and circle scallops to create a layered effect, I have used My Minds Eye - Pretty Please papers and for the adorable flower pot, which i have paper pieced i have used clear stamp set Mini Messages - A Little Hello

Here is my finished pail, I am not sure I will want to give it away as I like it so much lol xonly joking a special little girl will be receiving this with lots of images in, she doesn't know yet but i guess she will once she reads this :)

The Elzybell image is Flower Girl and I have paper pieced her dress, the band at the top and bottom I have used my Su scallop border punch and the flowers are an EK success punch, with the little pearls in the middle by Kaisercraft. I have used pink tulle and aqua tulle for the bows on the handle, this actually looks better in real life than it does in the piccy.

This was a great challenge for me as I do love my Elzybells and do have quite a stash of these beauties!!

Hope to be back again tomorrow

Sleep tight

Hullo, Hullo,

Happy Funtime Friday to you !!

I have a followed a super duper sketch over at Sketch Saturday this week and it is Mandy's sketch - thanks Mandy I just know i will use this again and again and again!

The DT cards are uber cool you must check them out.

I have finally inked my rain, snow, shine Miss Anya's - to be honest I didn't really want to chop them up as they are so neatly packaged, did anyone else feel the same or is it just crazy old me x

I have waited soooooooooooo long for these babies and i love em!!! I also struggled as I had to chop into my new My Minds Eye - Pretty Please papers , sometimes I do not want to chop, just stroke and smile at them, is sometimes what I wanna do - no laughing I know you all feel the same!!!lol x

Just a quickie today as I am way behind- got some pressies to wrap as It is a friends birthday.

Enjoy your weekend

Toodle pop!!
