For my card I have used ‘winter robin – image no. 118’

I coloured the image with Promarkers added a touch of glitter to the snow

Diecut a frame in gold mirri

New Release Digi Doodles Studios - Laurel

Hello and Welcome!

I have today for you a CAS card as I wanted to show off this fabulous new Digi Stamp from Digi Doodles Studios. This is their September Release and they are already in the shop. So you can pop along and purchase straight away. 

The stamp is called LAUREL

Doesnt she look like she is enjoying a little me time.

I could do with some of that days are flying with my cute pup and Grandson but wouldnt have it any other way. However just 5 mins like Laurel is having would be fab dont you think.

I think this would make a great retirement image too.

I coloured the image with Promarkers

fussy cut and added to some DP which i found in a pad called Fancy Free. ( looks like a setting in sun)

added a little sentiment which is a rubber stamp and all done.

Well we have a new challenge at the challenge blog and also on our Facebook page we would love you to join in.

Dont forget to pop along and checkout the other new stamps available straight away.

Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day.

 Good Day I have some exciting news to share with you.

For my card I have used the image

A Cuddle Makes it All Better

I took inspiration for my Pup - Teddy Ruffles who arrived on the 11th.

I turned it into a Thank You card.

I coloured the image with my Promarkers

fussycut and placed onto a diecut panel that was behind a diecut Frame. Matted onto Black card and then placed onto some Dp matted again with Black card.

Added some gems for bling and the Thanks is a die cut which I drop shadowed.

Crafty Catz Challenge - ATG - For a child

 Good morning We are Back

Yes Crafty catz is back from their Summer Holidays and ready for some fun.

I am this weeks host for the challenge hope you will come and play along.

As always our challenges are Anything Goes but for fun the dt use a twist which we hope you might play along with but only for fun.

This weeks twist is For a Child.

Now round my neck of the wood the children are getting ready for school. So maybe this could be a back to school good wishes. Or maybe a birthday or even getting ready for Christmas after all Christmas is very special with Children around.

We are sponsored by Bugaboo and although they have closed the shop they kindly agreed to allow our winner the images the team has used so lots up for grabs.

For my card I have use a Kidz image called Kidz Lily Ladybug flower

I have used some old Dp for this card and spellbinders die for the frame for the image.

Image is coloured with mainly promarkers and odd copic.

Some flowers button and ribbon from my stash

Stamped sentiment to finish.

Well now your turn cant wait to see what you have made and what occasion.

Thanks for popping bye and have a good weekend.

Oh my puppy should be arriving next weekend
