Cinderella Proved A New Pair of Shoes Can Change Your Life

Over at Allsorts the challenge is dressing up and over on Cute Card Thursday the challenge is to have text on your card. For these challenges I've made a simple card (not that any of mine are particularly difficult!) by cutting a shoe and text using my Cricut. The racy leopard skin print paper is from Pink Petticoat and I've added a little bling to the centre of the flower.

I'm So Excited..I Just Can't Hide It..

I've won the first Craftalicious challenge for Coochie Coo. Admittedly it was the random org thingy which picked me, but I'd like to think it was a reasonable effort.

Anyhoo onto this weekends entry - I did nothing last week because the weather was glorious which is a bit of a rarity in Scotland. I'm entering it into Cardalicious which is green, flowers and polka dots and ABC which is X... extra dimension.



I've printed my cardstock with Pink Petticoat's Big Dots in New Leaf and cut the flower and sentiment using my Cricut with the addition of a Card Candy paper brad..simples.

Coochie Coo

I'm back! I've not posted since April - it's not that I've not been crafting just that I haven't found any challenges I wanted to enter. Anyhoo for my first challenge in two months I'm entering this little number into the ABC Challenge which is vintage, Daring Cardmakers which is pearl and the brand new Craftalicious Challenge whose theme is new.



The vintage style papers are from Cajoline-Scrap, the image is from Squigglefly and I've done a little hand sewing, decoupage and added some pearls. I love the way this turned out - the little baby is too cute!

Need to go now this blogger thingy is playing up big time so before I lose my temper I'll sign off now. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Moon Bear

Over on Allsorts the challenge is no DP's. This is my kinda challenge as I prefer cards with a lot of white on them. It's just a personal choice but I do still salivate over all you fabulously creative crafters out there and your super fancy mixing and matching of papers.

So for my entry I have used my favourite Dustin Pike image which I use a lot on baby cards. It's a very simple card which I've made by printing the image directly onto the card and, by printing it a few more times, I've decoupaged the image and added a computer sentiment. I love this image - he is just so cute.



There won't be a lot of crafting this weekend as I've actually planned a few things (makes a change) which I'll share later.

Flower Power

Back to work tomorrow after a weeks holiday. I didn't manage as many challenges as I would normally although I made some jewellery which turned out quite well. So here is my final challenge entry for this week, an Easter card and matching pillow box filled with liqueur filled chocolate eggs, which fits with multiple challenges.



I've used a Penny Black stamp coloured with Copic BV13, the DP scrap is Pink Petticoat, a Fiskars border punch, Cuttlebug embossing folder and some glitter.

Zingy Green

I'm being a little green in more ways than one. I made a card for the ABC challenge and I wasn't sure if I liked it - but I did like my handmade ribbon flower. So I whipped it off and made another card with some scraps, some hand stitching, a computer generated sentiment and the aforementioned flower with a new button attached.



I like the colour combination of black, white and green - very stylish - I think I'll use it again.

I'm entering it into the Charisma Cardz Challenge - Spring Has Sprung

Q Is For......Quote

Here is my quick card for this weeks ABC challenge which is Q Is For Quote. My quote is by Dorothy Parker...Brevity is the Soul of Lingerie. The DP and image are by Pink Petticoat and the flower is just a piece of ribbon and a button.



Not sure on this one - I may have to recycle it later.
