Iced Confection


Here is my entry for the Our Creative Corner Challenge which is based on a sketch by Kim Teasdale. I've used a Pink Petticoat image (is it OK to use digi-stamps for this challenge?), DP paper by Mad About Cards matted onto Pink Petticoat Washed Out Bubblegum, some embossed card stock and ribbon from my stash.

I need to go now and do some work around the house before the rugby comes on. It's the big one today..... England V Scotland. I don't think my nerves can stand it - although you have to admire my optimism!

Thanks for looking!

Hope your weekend is getting off to a flying start. Not so good weatherwise here today but at least it's dry.

Here is my entry for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge and I've used my favourite image of the PB stamps I own (which is not too many I have to add). This one just lends itself to a 'sorry' card. The card is very simple as the K&Co paper is quite fussy and as you know I don't really do fussy. I've matted it onto Pink Petticoat Washed Out Bubblegum, doodled around the outside of the image as is the requirement of the challenge and stamped the sentiment using a Studio G bargain alphabet stamp set.

Thanks for looking!

Flower Power

Last cards of today and I'm entering these into the ABC Challenge - F is for.... Flowers.

The first one is using my favourite Papernation decoupage image, a computer generated sentiment and a little ribbon.



The second is just from leftovers from a previous card using Pink Petticoat paper and image and a little bling from my stash.



I've really enjoyed being off this week and would like to thank all those who have visited and left me comments - all are very much appreciated.

Thanks for looking!

It's another lovely day here in the West of Scotland. I've really cracked it this week - usually when I take my week off it's in the middle of what would appear to be the monsoon season.

Onto today's card and this one is for Friday Sketchers. I've used lovely sparkly Smirk DP and a Smirk image. The flower has been die cut, the butterflies have been punched and the rest is from my stash.

Thanks for looking!

Sugar Plum Hippo


Just one challenge today and it's for Charisma Cardz which is a sketch challenge this week.

I've used leftover Pink Petticoat flower and hearts design in Putty (this could be my new favourite), a Pink Petticoat image, some Card Candy dots, a stick on sentiment and a couple of rows of stitching.

Thanks for looking!

No Pink - Well Almost!


Last one of today and it's for the ABC Challenge - F is for.... Flowers.

I've printed a Pink Petticoat flower and hearts design directly onto the cardstock in Putty, die-cut an aperture, die-cut and punched flowers, some Card Candy dots and a little pearl heart on the inside from my stash.

Thanks for looking!

Liar Liar Pants On Fire

Yesterday - "Tomorrow I'm going to challenge myself to make some cards which don't have pink in them."

Today - Here is my first card of today for the Pink Elephant Challenge theme of buttons.



What is it with me? I was never a pink girl and now I just can't help myself. Back to the card...the DP is a download from Mad About Cards, the image is Pink Petticoat, the sentiment is computer generated and the bow and buttons are from my stash.

Thanks for looking!
