We're famous!!

Hi Ladies...

Happy Saturday to you all!

Today I'm here to show you a card that I made for All Dressed Up a little while ago - and it's now featured in this month's Complete Cardmaking magazine (out now)...  along with cards from the other lovely DT ladies..... soooooooo we're famous!! anyone need an autograph?? hehe!  

This is one of my favourite of all of Wendy's fabulous designs...  if you haven't met here before, this is Abi Ballerina - and she's actually a FREEBIE and can be found HERE.

I like to make her the real focal point of a card.... so I colour her with my copics, and then I use a CAS layout.  I did print our her skirt a second time though and fussy cut it, then added it 3D (with sticky pads) onto the first image.  The die I used for the square is a Lil' Inkers Stitched Square (my regular followers will know this is I think I've nearly worn it out - I've used it so much!)  

Then I used some of Wendy's lovely All Dressed Up digital paper scraps run through with my MFT Fishtail Die - and also used one of my number dies to create the SIX in glitter card... 

Of course, a ballerina had to have sparkle..... and as you can see, I added loads!  

Do watch out for the Complete Cardmaking magazine.... it's got lots of lovely All Dressed Up designs from the other DT ladies.... AND there are two exclusive images that you can get your hands on too!  

Hope you have a lovely day.... I'm off to Matalan to stand there for a few hours promoting the children's hospice lottery.......  wish me luck!! 

Big hugs

An easel card for a change...

Hi Girls

I'm here today with my All Dressed Up post...  and this time I decided to opt for an easel style card as I haven't done one for a while.  As she's one of my favourites, I decided to use the FREE Abi Ballerina who can be found HERE.   I coloured her with Copics and Promarkers...  then cut her with a circle nestie mounted on a scalloped nestie in darker purple.  I fixed some little gems around the image... then made the easel card.... so very easy!  Of course, she had to have a little bit of glitter... then I found some nice velvet ribbon too..  oooh and the paper was from Pink Petticoat.

The little sentiment which forms the 'stopper' I designed myself on the PC.  If you'd like to use it, I've put it below as a FREEBIE.  Right click and save.  I'd love to see what you use it for..

Big hugs and Happy Crafting 

In The Pink KISS reminder

Hi Girls

Just a quick reminder that we're midway through this special four week challenge at In The Pink - so you still have another two weeks to get your KISS (Keep it Sweet and Simple) cards done and entered!!

Today I've used a fabulous image from  All Dressed Up - she's called Abi Ballerina and she's available here... and I think she's absolutely wonderful...  so cute and girlie and so perfectly right up my street!  Of course, I had to decoupage her ballet skirt to look like she's twirling, didn't I?  And.......  well...... glitter HAD to be added.... yes?????  

The little fishtails are from a Dienamics Fishtail Flags set... the sentiment is a Pink Petticoat one, and the punch for the sentiment is from Stampin Up - Word Window.

Here's a quick link to Etsy where you can buy fabulous All Dressed Up Digital Images:

So don't forget to get your pink entries in to In The Pink...  can't wait to see what you come up with!

Big Hugs
