CBC: Template Challenge #2!


I decided to do another card with this template, using Pink Petticoat christmas papers xx

CBC: Template challenge

"Thought it was about time for a template challenge, you can interpret the template in anyway you like as long as we can still see the basic shapes/outlines in your finished design."
This is my first CBC challenge, and also my first template challenge! It's made with handmade papers, peel offs and some paper flowers from ebay! Hope you like it! xx


DCM: Mid week little extra.


"This time we've got a Ribbony Recipe for you to play with.
The ingredients you need to use on your cards are:
4 brads/eyelets
3 circles
2 rectangles
and lashings of ribbon!
What sort of card you make is up to you this time - as long as you've got all those ingredients on there the choice is yours."


Here is my interpretation for this weeks extra. The brads are the 3 little stockings and the star on the bow and hopefully this is enough ribbon! xx

Papertake: Winter Warmers!

Here is my Winter Warmer card for this weeks challenge. I made the little jumper from felt and the papers are DCWV again! Also, the sentiment was part of a free pull out from SC&P magazine. Thanks for looking! xx

My own!

I made this card today with a little cross stitch picture from Hobbycraft and some DCWV Pocket full of posies paper xx

DCM: Wrap it in Ribbon for Christmas


This weeks challenge was to make a christmas card with ribbons. I decided to make a background out of mine. (Sorry for the dark picture but the flash kept reflecting in the mirror card!) Thanks for looking! xx

Just Bex: Big Challenge 10 - Swing card


"I want you to create a swing card, you can decorate it any how you like as long as the card you create swings!"

Here's my swing card for this challenge, it's for my parents who love anything to do with India! The turquoise handmade paper is from a craft fair and the elephant came from Hobbycraft ages ago but I havn't known what to do with it! Everything else I had lying around! xx

Just Bex: Big Challenge 14 - Snow


"We would like you to make a card using the word SNOW"

I've made this as part of a range I've designed to sell for christmas, it's using Pink Petticoat monograms and backing paper with a few little sequins! xx

Just Bex: Big Challenge 5 - Frame it


"Nice and simple, this one! Create a LO using ribbon as a frame for your photo"

I clearly didn't read this properly and made a card! Oops! At least it's ready for christmas. The Fairy Delight stamp is from Woodware, the background paper is from CardArt and the frame is little chopped up peices of ribbons xx

Just Bex: Big Challenge 6 - Tagged


"Ok a Nice Simple Challenge for you all I guess we all need to make tags for all those Christmas Presents? So I am challenging you to make 3 Tags to start with"

I thought I'd make mine in a theme, also they're not too tricky so I can make loads! Sorry I can't remember where the christmas paper is from xx

Just Bex: Big Challenge 2 - Hang it on the tree!

" Your challenge is to make a Christmas decoration to hang on the tree . Your decoration can be made however you like, as long as it hangs, and is small enough to go on the tree."
I'm not sure how many of the Bex challenges I'm going to get through, but this is a start anyway! It's my first attempt at shrink plastic! xx

Papertake: Spooky Spectacular!


This is my very spooky card for this weeks challenge! The (not) scary ghost is made from funky foam, thanks for looking! xx

DCM: Circle of Friends




The subject is, as in our original dare "friends", but this time the title is CIRCLE of FRIENDS and we'd like you to incorporate at least one circle into your card.

This is my offering for this week, the little teapot is Pink Petticoat and the background is made with See D's stamps.


Happy 1st Birthday!

Papertake: Krazy Kids Kards!


These are my cards/invitations for this weeks kids challenge. I couldn't decide which to put on! xx

P.S. The papers are from Pink Petticoat and the little pictures are DW dingbats, I think from 2 Peas in a Bucket!

Papertake: Hubbies Hobbies

This is my first post for the papertake challenge. As you can tell, I'm new to this blogging thing so I'm a little late with this card, oops! I hope you like it anyway! Beth xx
