Anything Goes

Hello again, and as I said I have two cards today and so I'm back with another card. This time my card is for the new challenge starting today at  Simon Says Challenge as it's my fifth week here, but also, sad to say, my last week as Designer in the Spotlight. I have enjoyed this time here so much, and never ever had thought this would happen to me. So thank you to Lorraine, Heidi, Steph and all the DT girls at Simon Says for giving me this opportunity to join you this month... I have truly enjoyed it ......

Onto my card now, this week the theme is an easy one

ANYTHING GOES

And so I decided to do a simple birthday card, using this sweet stamp Strawberry Kisses from Crafters Companion. The beautiful paper is from the Uncommon  Authentique paper pad and then I used Promarkers to colour my image and twine and a little charm to finish off my card. 

The corner die is Cheery Lynn, which I have cut in smaller pieces this time and this is Donna's sketch that I used to do my card today. 

As usual Heidi is offering one lucky winner a $50 voucher to spend in the Simon Says Store.

Please check out the fantastic inspiration from all the Simon Says DT

Hello everyone, good afternoon. It's a nice sunny day here today for a change.. we haven't been having nice weather lately, windy, some rain and cooler as well.. but now it seems it will be nice again.

Anyway, I am here today with my DT card for the new challenge at Sweet Stampin and this week we want to see MOON and STARS

We are so lucky to be sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps

  

and so we could choose an image from the store. I loved making this card as it was a nice break from the busy days I am going through at the moment.. and so quick it was too..  coloured image while waiting for son to finish football, had all the digi papers printed and then I punched some stars to finish it off!

By the way, my moon is the green paper.. if you look closely you can see the craters of the moon surface ... you weren't thinking that I left the moon out were you ?? :D

Anything Goes

Finally  I have another card this week!! I wanted to make something for Friday as it was my birthday, but as you can see I didn't manage! I took the day off, intending to do lots of blog hopping and crafting, but by mid-morning after I returned from hairdresser, we had an electricity cut and then it was already time to go pick kids from school and meet my friend. Apart from the morning, it was a nice day. We went for dinner in the evening and I got a really nice bracelet as a present from hubby :D .. Anyway, don't forget to join my Birthday Candy here.

And onto my card now, which is my DT Card for the new challenge at One Stitch At A Time and the theme for this week is 

ANYTHING GOES

A fun card today, love how it turned out. The image, Girls Rule is from Gert's Digi Blessings and I coloured it with my promarkers. I plucked up courage and tried black hair colouring this time! Papers are Dovecraft, Sugar and Spice.

The prize for this week is all the images that the DT girls have used today.

Embossing

So here I am again, and now I have my DT Card for the new challenge at Emerald Fairies. ... a totally different card from the previous one as this time I have a baby card.

The theme for this forthnight is EMBOSSING.

For my card I used the sweet Ashee which I coloured with my promarkers... and then I also glittered up the wings and parts of the mushroom to finish it off. .. .. just had to glitter up the card candy on the sides as well.. loved how it turned out. This  card will be going all the way to Australia as I'm giving it to my nephew as they are expecting their first child. Still don't know if it will be a boy or a girl, so hence the colours.

Of course there will be physio therapy to do after this, but at least the day to normality is getting nearer :D

Anyway, I have two cards to show you today, both DT Cards. This is my first one and it's my DT Card for the new challenge at Crafty Sentiments as it's Team A's turn this week.

The theme for this week is BINGO and I used the diagonal line Paper Piecing, Coloured Image and Charms.
