Who's this ?? :-)



I just thought I'd post this on my blog, my daughter Amy did this last night for her art GCSE portfolio which had to be handed in this morning !! Talk about last minute scramble !!

One Stop Craft Challenge




The theme on the One Stop Craft Challenge this week is 'Sorry', we have to use the word somewhere on our craft work.
I used a 'Thinking of You' stamp by Hero Arts which I inked with antique linen distress ink, I also used this for sponging around the edges and I brayered the matting card with it too. The butterfly is slightly coloured with yellow copics and made to fly with stickles :-)
I printed the sentiment inside on the computer and used the label nesties.
Thanks for looking, I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)

'Spring' !!



Cheri at the Paper freak is offering to give away some lovely papers. All you have to do is make a card :-)
The theme is 'Spring', well daffodils and bluebells always make me think of spring so I used my Penny Black daffodil stamp. I also wanted to use blue so used some coredinations which I sanded after running through the big shot in the swirls folder. The swirly yellow/white paper is a download from Funky Fairy's.
So my 4 colours are yellow, green, blue and white :-)
Thanks for looking, I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)

Funky Fairy's Challenge ( my GD creation) :-)






This is my 2nd 'creation' as GD for the Funky Fairy's Challenge. It is already week 7 !! Ria set us a fantastic challenge this weeek and I am really looking forward to seeing what you all make, I actually made 2, one is hanging on my front door next to a 'Beware of the Cats ' sign, I didn't like it enough to send it in, so I made this one too, I've had a 'Finished in a Flash' Disney scrapbook pack for a couple of years waiting for me to make a scrapbook of when we went to Disneyland Paris, Sean was 10, he's now almost 21, Amy was 5 yrs old, she's now nearly 16 !! I used the free basic stars download which you can download here,the sentiment is the Birthday rounds download from Funky Fairy's too and a few of the embellishments from the Disney pack.
I really enjoyed making this, and of course there were too many jelly beans to fit in the bag so I had to dispose of them somehow ,,,,,,yum :-)
Go and see what the DT made too, I've just seen Ria's, its lovely, am going to see everyone elses too now. This is a challenge, !! so challenge yourself and join in !! :-)
I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)
