Critter Crazy#98 DT

 Hello and welcome to my second DT card of the day.

This is my card for Critter Crazy Challenge #98, critter is not really a word we use in the UK but basically it's any creature real or fantasy and it has to be the main focal point on your card.


I have used this Baalamb from theWoodware Fuzzy Friends range designed by Jane Gill.
I have had this stamp for ages and never inked it up and it's very quick and easy to colours which I did with Copic markers.
The card is 6x6 Craft UK premium which I get from Hazel and Paul at Dragon Papercrafts (their service is so quick and the postage cost is realistic)
Papers are vintage LOTV Country Meadow but will still be available digitally from Nitwits.
Ribbons are from stash and the linen thread is from Stampin Up.

I would like to enter this card at 
Farmquest General Store - Anything Farm or Country Goes
NBUS - Never Before Used Stuff
I was also going to enter at Creative Knockouts but it closed while I was writing my post, must check those time zones lol!


Do Al(l) Kreatives #101 DT card

 Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today.

I am here with my first DT card of the day. Today challenge 101 begins over at Do Al(l) Kreatives where we have floral theme and are sponsored by Sheepski Designs.


I used the Cornflowers image which I coloured with alcohol markers and then inked around the image with Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide.
The papers are some really old Chatterbox papers called Poolhouse Vines (regular visitors will realise that I have a lot of very old treasure in my collection)
The sentiment is vintage Craftwork Cards which was also coloured with Blueprint Sketch.
Ribbon is from my stash and the pearls were from the Hobby House.

I will be entering my card in the following challenges
Allsorts Challenge #822 - Anything Goes or Inspired by a Song, I am following the Anything Goes option.

We had a blog hop last month. I had 14 lovely comments on my blog so I numbered them in date order, put the numbers in a spin the wheel which chose number 9 which came from Wilma




Please message me so that I can send you a little something.
Thank you for all the lovely comments.

  Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today.

Today I am sharing the second of my DT cards for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this month.


My papers are from the Watercolour Dreams set from Kanban (I used to pop in and pick up odd bits when they were based on the same street where I work) and I layered some vellum over the top. I used a perfume bottle from the Craftwork Cards Fashionista set  which I coloured with alcohol markers.
The sentiment is from Julie Hickey Designs Hazel's Sentiment Medley and the Chanel ribbon came from Chanel courtesy of my lovely husband.
Black dots are from stash and I used my usual 6x6 Craft UK premium card blank

Critter Crazy #97

 Thank you for visiting my blog

Today I am sharing my DT card for challenge #97 at Critter Crazy Challenge


I've used papers and toppers from an old Craftwork Cards kit Savannah.
Base card is a brown linen 6x6 card and I've used a pearl copper card for layering.
The little dots are Julie Hickey Designs Glossies


Do-All Kreatives #100

 Hello and thank you for visiting, I am here with my DT card for Do-Al(l) Kreatives where the theme this month is to make a birthday card with a spring theme. As it is the 100th challenge we are also having a blog hop so if you are taking part in the blog hop you will have come to me from 

Alex  at Alex' Creative Side

and after you have visited me you should go and see

Billie at Ink on my Fingers

Hopefully my links will work well and you will find them both easily.

As we are having a blog hop I will also be doing a draw for anyone that leaves a comment to win a prize.

So after all that here is my card.


To make it I followed a Mixed Up Craft tutorial for a Floating Hexagonal Pop up Box Card.
To decorate it I used some new stamps from Julie Hickey Designs, these are from the Cherry Blossom set which I coloured with my copics and then had lots of fussy cutting to do.
The papers are Basic Grey Lily Kate which I loved when they came out all those years ago and still do.
The sparkle gems came from my stash.

I'll be entering my card at Allsorts Challenge blog #820 where the theme is Spring Flowers and Cherry Blossoms always say spring to me
