Tea & bunting!

Hiya! I hope you're well and enjoying this beautiful weather we're having in the UK at the moment! I'm back with a very British looking card - it wasn't until after I'd finished that I really realised it was red, white and blue! I've used the 'Fusion' sketch & photo combo for my inspiration. At first I just had the idea for bunting and the sentiment but it looked a bit bland so I stamped the teapot & cups border several times with VersaMark ink, so it's quite muted, then I stamped, coloured and cut out one of each to bring them forward a bit. I hope you like it, thanks for popping by!

My Time to Craft #23

I'm a bit late with this one as the new challenge gets posted tonight! The computer imps have visited my PC and I've spent ages getting rid of viruses! But it's taken away any distractions and I've got loads of cards to share! This one is for the MTTC challenge, Artfully Asian. I've probably mixed up lots of bits of Asia with this card, sorry! I'm going to put my supplies at the bottom from now on, I've seen other do it and it's so much easier! Thanks for looking!

Supplies:

Stamps- Kerry-jo set (here) coloured with Whispers, edged with chalks, Pink Cat Studio sentiment

Paper- Prima download, glitter card from Create and Craft

Flower- Pink Petticoat, coloured with chalks

Brads from stash

Cute Card Thursday #14 & My Time To Craft #18

Time to combine some more challenges as I never seem to have time to do them all but don't want to miss out on any - I really should learn to let go!

This weeks Cute Cards challenge is to use 3 different embellishments and My Time to Craft is Birds. I've used Pink Cat Studio Farm stamps coloured with Whispers, some Doodlebug paper and my 3 embellishments are the ribbon, little gems and the balloons. I hope you like it!

My Time to Craft

This weeks challenge is New Home. I didn't have anything 'housey' so I decided to go down the 'pun' route! I've used a Penny Black stamped image watercoloured with Whispers, K&Co stripey paper, a Woodware alphabet set for the sentiment and the felt flower and ribbon are from my craft box! Thanks for looking!

Cute Card Thursday #9 & My time 2 Craft

The theme on this weeks Cute Card challenge is to use Gems and jewels (like I need an excuse!) and I'd also like to use this for this weeks Time 2 Craft challenge which is Ribbons. I've used a Penny Black Light the Night stamp coloured with Whispers, and Stickles added to her hair flower. Then I used some Hint of Pink Dovecraft paper (available in my blog candy!) some ribbon and gems from my box a computer sentiment and a doodled border. Hope you've been enjoying the sun!

My Time 2 Craft #12

This weeks challenge is babies, what a good excuse to use my new stamp! I've used the Sugar Nellie 'Big Sister' stamp coloured with watercolur pencils and edged with faux stitching. A Pink Petticoat sentiment, and scraps of DCWV paper. The buttons were from Nikki and the sketch is from my blog candy competition - still time to join in!

My Time 2 Craft: Tutti Frutti!

I got my boyfriend envolved in this card and asked what colours he thought of when I said Tutti Frutti and he said 'Pink, yellow and green', so here's my card! It mostly uses up old stash, papers from a sizzix pad, button, ribbon and magazine freebie sentiment from my box and a Pink Cat studio sundae stamp. Thanks for stopping by!

My time to craft #7: Sparkle

The challenge on My Time to Craft is Sparkle, using gems, glitter, shiny thing etc!

I've used glitter card and some gems to decorate my aunties 6oth birthday card. She doesn't seem 60, hence the pink and girly theme. Also we enjoy a glass (or 3) of bubbly together hence the champers ribbon and picture! I'm not too sure of the layout of this card, also I havn't put Happy Birthday on it because I don't know where to put it, if anywhere! Suggestions more than welcome, thanks for looking! xx
