Birthday Boy......

 

Morning lovely bloggers......

Well....... it's a wet bank holiday here in the UK - typical of our bank holiday weather unfortunately - they're generally a wash out and all those that wanted to go out and play, are stuck in!!  I'm happy though - it means I can play in my craft room!

And now for my LMMS DT card......  (as you know, creating a male card is not my favourite thing to do), but to fit in with our 'For the Boys' theme at Little Miss Muffet Stamps - I used Polka Dot Pals Andy - and guess what?  Again, I really enjoyed the bright colouring!  Something really is coming over me.........  and I LIKE it! LOL!  I still ADORE my pink of course........  but getting to love so many other stronger colours..  a whole new world!!

Fly away.... at In The Pink

 

Hi Lovely Blogging Peeps...

It's In The Pink time again...  (yes it DOES come round fast - or is that just for me?)

Our theme this time is

FLY AWAY - 
WITH THE OPTION OF 'PLUS ONE' OTHER COLOUR

So...... the possibilities are endless!  Anything that flies.......  and then because the Pink Ladies struggled to keep to our own guidelines of  'mostly pink' - (green seemed to be creeping in) - we've added the option of also using a colour besides PINK!!  Eeeeek!!!  I did use a tiny bit of green.....  well, I had to join in didn't I?  hehe!

Materials:

Image - Standing on a Flower from A Day for Daisies
Embossing Powder - Stampendous Frantage Aged Rose with Silver Halo mixed 
DP from Papermania - Lucy Cromwell collection
Glitter on flowers
Coloured with Copics
Skin - E000/00/21, R20
Pinks - RV91, R81/83/85/89
Green - YG03
Sharpie Poster Pen for White Dots

Just so you can see that I fussy cut and added a 3D wing - I took this photo from the side so you could see it better.

Hope you'll join in our challenge - see you over at IN THE PINK!  And you could be in with a chance of winning a fabbie £10 voucher to spend at Bunny Zoe's Crafts too...

Big hugs and Happy Crafting...

Ready for the Rain???

 

Hi Lovely Bloggers...

Today I'm using another fabulous image from CC Designs - I chose to use a girlie who is prepared for the weather here in the UK!

I did brighten her day by giving her pink hair......  I think she suits it!

Funky Frogette...

Hi Peeps....

Today it's my turn to share a DT card for Little Miss Muffet Stamps - and this is for our current Anything Goes Challenge.  I've got to say, I'm truly in love with this little Frogette... she's just too cute isn't she?!

Materials

Papers - The Girls Paperie - Paper Girl

Pinks - RV91, R81/83/85/89

Froggie Texture on Green - T1/3, W1/2

For interest, I just thought I'd also show you the difference in a photo dependant on the background colour used...  see how using a deeper coloured pink background behind the card can truly alter the look of the shade of pink on the card? Amazing huh?  And neither are the actual shade I used in real life..  so you'll just have to use your imagination! LOL!

Happy Crafting....

Away with the fairies...

 

Hi Blogging Buddies...

Hope all is well in your world.... I'm having a bit of a quieter time this week -  catching up with a bit of the dreaded housework that's been piling up!

But today, I'm here with another fabulous new image from Roberto's Rascals at 

C C Designs - this is Fairy Twila.... isn't she cute??

I decided to use more lilacs (think I'm on a lilac roll!), and a bit of green too.. to match in with the paper I chose.

Hi All....

Happy Monday!

Today it's my turn over at Little Miss Muffet Stamps to share a card using one of their wonderful new images... meet Polka Dot Pal Petunia...  so coy and shy looking...

Now before I go, I'd like to share a photo taken yesterday of me and my girls. It was my birthday and Barry took this before we went out for a lovely lunch.. You know that it's not often I'm happy with a photo of me, but this one is an exception..  and I'm so proud of the two beauties with me!! Thanks to my girls and Barry for making my day very special..  I had a wonderful time...  and got truly spoiled!

Big hugs...

Little Witch Lucy....

 

Hi Lovely Bloggers...

I do hope you're not getting fed up of seeing me popping up in your reading list this week......  I promise, I'll calm down soon.........  but we've had a lot going on at CC Designs with the fabulous new Halloween release...  and they needed shouting about, so shout I did!

And talking of shouting........  the little spiders around this card certainly caused a little squeal or two when I diecut them - before they'd made it to be glued onto the card!  More than once I jumped when I saw one on my craft mat!

Materials

Sentiment - CC Designs Boo Sentiments

Dies: CC Designs Make a Card #8 (Spider and Web)

I embossed the sentiment with silver on black card to make it stand out...  and I glittered the web so it looked frosty too.  Then........  well........  some of the spiders just HAD to be pink and blinged......  well, didn't they?  

I know it seems early for Halloween... but you know how fast the time goes doesn't it?  So by the time you order etc.......  well.........

Hope you like what I did...

Have a great weekend... and Happy Crafting...

Hugs

Beary Sweet!
