The Paper Shelter – Anything Goes + DT Call

Morning ….. you will have to forgive me for my very short post. I need my bed – just finished my night shift and my eyes are closing. Promise to add full links etc later.

So here is my card for this weeks challenge on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog …… the theme is

ANYTHING GOES

How cool is this image??? I love her. This digi is called ‘Pop Star’ and is available from The Paper Shelter website.

The great thing about digis is that you can manipulate the image. I have flipped this one and also added in a piece of word art from Create with TLC which you can buy here.

Don’t forget you still have a couple of days to apply to be on the DT …. full details are on the challenge blog.

Challenges:

Cutie Pie – Glitter & Bling

Sketch and Stash - #92 (new digi, sentiment and papers!)

OMG … You are soooo embarrassing!!!!!!

Good morning folks, yay for the weekend!!! I am off for a couple of days which is brilliant. Hubby is off too so that is even better. We are going to go out tonight to celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary which was yesterday – how time flies.

Anyhoo, onto my card for today. Sometimes you just need a little humour in your life don’t you think. This image from Just Inklined really made me smile. You can see other fab inspiration over on the Just Inklined Blog. This hilarious image is called Daisy and Watson and you can purchase it from Just Inklined.

I coloured my image first AGAIN before picking my papers …… I will pop the links below if you are interested.

The face of the girl and the dog just crack me up. The dog reminds me of that clip with Harry Secombe when he was doing Songs of Praise and the dog went skidding down the hill on it’s bum behind him hahahaha. The sentiment Plan A is from the fabulous Create with TLC.

What I used…

Flowers from WOC 

Ribbon and pearls from stash.

Time to hop with 'Create with TLC'

Hi folks, just a little bit of news for you..... there is a fab hop taking place right now over on CREATE WITH TLC. Make sure you pop over and support all the designers - you may be pleasantly surprised.

I have just got back from my holidays so I won't be taking part in todays hop

Simon Says … Sporty and/or Patriotic

Good afternoon to you all. Here we are at our new time for Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog – I hope you used the extra few hours this morning to join in with our previous challenge. If not we will forgive you as long as you promise to take part this week :o)

It is not long now until the Olympics start so our theme this week is to get inspiration from either the Olympics or 4th July.

The design team are all showcasing products by Cuttlebug this week.

So I decided to go down the 4th of July theme. I have had this image for quite a while now but never coloured her so it was about time I sorted that out! She is really marching with such a purpose that it really made me smile.

I have stuck to red, white and blue for her clothing too ….. I know the papers are really busy but I think it works quite well. I really like the balloons on the papers and they certainly fit in with all those Independance Day celebrations!!!

As usual there are plenty of embellies too …. but no flowers today from me (shock/horror). I have used my Copics to colour my image and I am trying out a new way of listing my colours. I have added clickable links for every single colour. How good am I lol. Let me know what you think and if you like it or not. If you do like it I will try to add it every week if I get time ….. see how I am not making any promises hehe.

You all know by now that if you are the lucky winner then you are set to win a $50 voucher to spend at Simon Says Stamp Online Store – yes that’s right …. are we crazy????? Perhaps but you know that you have a great selection of goodies to spend it on so you would be crazy not to join in!!

As promised here are the links to the copics I have used …… think I have just booked my place in heaven … shining halo ….. x

And here are the products I used on my card ……

Challenges:

Seems a little Sketchy – Sketch 16

So there we go. I hope you get chance to play along with us this week. Whatever you do though have a great week! xxx

Flower Cross - Just Inklined

Good morning my lovelies .... another dry day here and hubby is working hard to try and finish his shed before we go on our hols. It is looking good so far, it just amazes me how men can just build these things from scratch. I suppose it is a bit like us crafters making cards hey :o)

So here is my very first card for the Just Inklined DT. It is really nice to colour something different to my usual cute. 

 This beautiful image is called 'Flower Cross' and is so easy to colour.

I usually pick my papers first and then colour my image to match but this time I just coloured my image first. I then went through my papers to see what would match. I found these lovely papers by Basic Grey and I think they match perfectly. I might start doing it this way a little more often because I have had these forever and doubt I would have thought to use them for this card.

Lots of pretty pearls and flowers (and some punching too) to finish it all off. There are lots of wonderful cards for inspiration over on the Just Inklined Blog so make sure you pop over for a look. 

Challenges:


The Pink Elephant - Sketch
Daisy Doodles - Anything Goes
Stampin' for the Weekend - Show us your Style (lots of embellies and papers)
Totally Gorjuss - Something Yellow

Have a wonderful day xxx
