Crafty Sentiments DT Card #7

Hi girls, wonderful to have you dropping in to my blog. As always I hope you find something that pleases. Please feel free to browse.
Well another month flashed past and it time for the last DT card for Crafty Sentiments challenge for February. Working with a fabulous sketch from Suzette and with the additional requirement to use two different ribbons I have come up with this offering. I inked up the Crafty Sentiments Teddy with his basket of roses and coloured him using my Copics. I think this wee chap makes a great card for Mother's Day. I used brown and tan Bazzil as mounting card and used papers from KI Memories "Favourite Things collection". The embellishments are all from my stash.
Now why not pop over to Crafty Sentiments blog to enter the challenge. We are fairly new on the block but things are beginning to pick up so why not be part of the fun. The Challenge will be published officially at 09:00hrs GMT.
I hope you like this effort of mine . If you do and would like to let me know what you think please feel free to leave a comment. I would love to hear from you. Thank you for taking the time to call - it's appreciated. Have a great day crafting and wherever you are take care.
Hugs,

Sunday Sketch & Stamp #22

Hi girls. Welcome to my little blog. I love having you here to see what I have to offer. I really enjoy making cards but the knowledge that some of you keep coming back to see them is a fantastic encouragement. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time and trouble to come here.
I am entering this card into the current Sunday Sketch and Stamp challenge. Sem gave us a wonderful sketch to follow and I got out Magnolia's "Tilda with Tulips" and coloured her using my Copics. The papers are an unknown striped paper and Stampin Up's "Perfect Plum". I have also used some Bazzil Bling. the punched borders are done with a Martha Stewart Arched border punch. the embellishments are all from my stash and I have used sakura pen on the tulip heads.
I hope you like this card enough to encourage you to take an extra minute to leave me a comment to let me know what you think of it. I do so love reading what you leave for me.
Thanks for calling in and whatever your plans are for today I hope you have a great time.

Basic Grey Colour Combo #4 & Penny Black Wk 89 & Secret Crafters #71

Hi girls. Welcome to my crafty ramblings on this little niche on the world wide web. It's great to have you visit and I hope you get half as much pleasure from being here as I will from knowing you've been. If you find something pleasing to the eye I'll be chuffed.
I made this card to enter three challenges. Basic Grey's colour combo is Maroon, Lemon & Pink, Penny Black had a colour combo of Pink, Green & Yellow, and Secret Crafters wanted something for Mother's Day. I used Penny Black's "Hugs and Kisses for You" and coloured it with my Copics. This is one of my favourite PBs and is not generally available now. I got this one from America. The paper is Basic Grey's "Indian Summer". The embellishments are from my stash and I used Glimmer Mist and Stickles to add a bit of glitz.
I really enjoyed making this card and I hope you like it. I would really appreciate your views if you had a minute to leave a comment. I always value what fellow bloggers have to say about my cards. It would also let me know you had been here.
Have a great day and enjoy all you do and stay safe.

Just Magnolia Wk 43 & Secret Crafters #71

Hi girls. Welcome to my wee blog. I'm glad you have had time to call in. I only hope you find something to please the eye. What a day this has been. It has snowed all day but nothing to compare with what our American cousins are having to suffer. Not great weather for going out on crutches so I just had to stay in and craft. What is it they say about an ill wind?
I made this card to enter two challenges. Just Magnolia's Jayjay gave a fantastic sketch to follow and Secret Crafters had a theme of "Mother's Day". I inked up another of my new Tildas, "Sweet Tilda", and coloured with my Polychromos pencils and Sansidor oil. The paper is SEI's "Juliette - Sweet Perfume". The punched borders were created with a Martha Stewart Heart punch on Salmon pink and grey card. The ribbon is from my stash and the flowers are handmade. I have also used some stickles for effect.
Any comments you may have time to leave will be much appreciated as I really find them helpful. Thanks for calling in and have agreat crafting day.
Hugs,

Charisma Cardz #7

Hi girls. Delighted you have dropped in for a browse. I hope you like what you find here because I strive to produce cards that will bring a smile and encourage others to do the same.
What is this weather up to. We had a beautiful sunny morning and it looked a great day looking out over the garden. Hubby went out at about 9am to make sure the car was clear only to find one half basking in the morning sunshine with perfectly clear windows and the other half covered in a thick hard frost. Still it's better than the snow some of you still have.
I made this card for the current Charisma Cardz challenge following the great sketch they gave. I inked up Magnolia's "Happy Tilda" and coloured her with my Copics. I only got her on Friday so this is the first time I have used her. The papers are Bazzil as a base and SEI's "Juliette". The embellishments are all from my stash and the flowers are as usual handmade. Now on the subject of flowers I have been asked many times if I make them my self and if I do, do I use a punch. Well I do make them myself and I do punch out different sizes of petals to layer them up. They are loosely based on the great tutorial in the first Magnolia Ink magazine although I have tweaked it to suit my own style. I used a Woodware corner punch to do the corners of the paper. As usual I would be overjoyed if you could take a minute to leave a comment. I love reading them.
Have a great day crafting and I hope all goes well for you in whatever you do for the rest of the day.
Hugs,

Creative Inspirations # 48

Hi girls. It might be old age but the days seem to be flashing past. Where is the time going. Since I started blogging the weeks are racing. It's such a joy to be able to spend time visiting some of the wonderful blogs out there and to be inspired by the fantastic talent on show. The fact that you have taken time to visit my little blog just blows me away. A very warm welcome. I hope you find it a worthwhile experience.
This card was made to enter the Creative Inspirations challenge where the theme is "Say it with Sepia". I have based this card closely on a card I made at a class, at the fantastic Stampaholics in Perth a few weeks ago, taken by Siobhan, my constant source of inspiration. I would love to take you all to one of her classes but they are so popular you have to book months in advance.
I have a habit of buying everything that was needed in class to make the project before I leave the shop so that I can practice the techniques at home. I am afraid that hubby, trying to tidy up to get the bins out, threw out the name strip from the bottom of the design paper and I can't remember the name of the paper. The image is One of Humming Birds by Crafty Individuals. The embellishments are from my stash of goodies.
I hope you like this one and I would love to know what you think of it so if you can spare the time please leave a comment. I find them so helpful and encouraging.
Thank you for spending time here and as you go through blogland do have a good time and in whatever else you do today be safe.
Hugs,

A Spoon Full of Sugar #91 & Papertake Weekly & Cute Daisy May - Flower Power


Hi all. Welcome to my wee blog. I am very pleased you could find the time to drop in to see what is on offer. I really hope you find something to encourage the mojo juices to run and trust that you will like what you see.
I have to start with an apology. There was some sort of problem, the detail of which I am not aware, that delayed publication of yesterday's Crafty Sentiments Challenge. It has all been resolved so the challenge is here.
From the comments on the blogs I've been visiting the weather seems to be refusing to warm up and some even had snow yesterday. Roll on Spring.
Which brings me neatly to today's card which I made to enter three challenges. A Spoon Full of Sugar have "Spring is in the air" as their theme and Papertake Weekly's theme is "Check this out" - I'm hoping the yellow gigham ribbon will qualify for that., and Cute Daisy May where the theme is "Flower Power"
The image I have used is Sugar Nellie's "Birdhouse" coloured using my Copic Ciaos. I used yellow base card to mount the paper which is Stampin Up's "Old Olive". The ribon is from my statsh and the flowers are handmade with the edges inked for effect.
If you can spare an extra minute it would be fabulous if you could leave a comment. I do so enjoy reading them and it's nice to know who has been visiting.
Thank you for calling in and have a fun day in whatever you are doing and keep safe.
Hugs,

Crafty Sentiments DT Card #6

Hi ladies, nice to have you popping in to have a look at what I've been doing. I appreciate your visit and I hope that you will find something to please the eye. Isn't it great to be able to call in on cardmakers all over the world and see their goodies. I find it inspirational. If you feel that this blog is worth visiting again I would be thrilled.
Anyway, it's Sunday again and time for the challenge over at Crafty Sentiments and the challenge this week was to follow the great sketch provided by Suzette and use some Kraft on the card. The above is my take on it and is my DT card for the challenge. I have used one of the new Crafty Sentiment stamps that I have coloured using my Copic Ciaos. I think this young lad with this huge bunch of flowers is wonderful for a Mother's Day card. I used a Kraft coloured paper as a backgrounf for the main papers which are SEI Juliette - Ladies Boudior and Memories Magenta Style - Baby - Baby pink Odyssey. The handmade flowers are made from Bazzil Bling I had in my stash.
I do hope you like this card but why not take an extra minute to leave me a comment to let me know what you think. I love reading any comments left for me because they do give me a clue as to what you like or don't like.
Thanks for sparing the time to visit but at the risk of being greedy for your time why not nip over to Crafty Sentiments and give the challenge a go - we would love to see your card.
Enjoy your day and be creative.
Hugs,

Anyone for Anya - Flower Power

Hi girls. Welcome to my little corner of cyberspace where I like to display some of the cards I make. It's great to have you here and my hope is that you might find something to inspire you in your own crafting. Take as much time as you want to browse through my ramblings.
Today I have a card that I made for Anyone for Anya challenge which this week has a theme of "Flower Power" and boy do I love flowers. This one was right up my street.
The image is from The Greetings Farm "Miss Anya Rubber Stamps Collection" and I have coloured her using my Copic Ciaos and my Polychromos Pencils and Sansador oil. The papers are Basic Grey's "Euphoria - Rhapsody" and they are mounted on green card, which I have also used to punch out petals to make the handmade flowers. The ribbon and bling are all from my stash.
I hope you like this card and that you might even have time to leave a comment to let me know that you have been here and what you think of the card. I love reading your comments - they are so encouraging and helpful. It's been great to have you visit so when you have finished here enjoy the rest of your blogging day and in what ever you do, be careful and enjoy yourself.

Secret Crafters #70


Hello girls. Thank you for coming across to see my blog. It's great to have you here and you are
welcome to rummage through my blog as time permits in search of something that will please the eye or ignite your mojo juices. I know that I get a lot of ideas and inspiration browsing through the blogs I visit.
Well I had a card to make for the 60th Birthday of my daughter-in-laws mother and I wanted to try to produce something "special". Then I saw that Secret Crafters were looking for a "Multi-fold card" and I thought that would be a perfect basis on which to proceed. I decided to base the card on a folding design I was shown at a class at Stampaholics in Perth some time ago. The basic layout of the full card is shown in the top picture. The image which is Magnolia's "Tilda with Roses", coloured using my Copic Ciaos is shown in close-up in the picture just above, and the decorative panel with the flowers is shown in the picture below. The papers are Basic Grey's "Lemonade Flower Garden" and Turquoise Bazzil. The embellishments are cut out on white card and silver embossed. The flowers and pearl stamens (difficult to see) are all from my stash. All is finished with Glimmer Mist, Stickles and Sakura Glaze.

I quite pleased with this card and hope she likes it, but I am also very interested in your views so if you can find the time I would love it if you could leave me a comment to let me know if you like it (or not).

Have a great day and get creating.
Hugs,

I inked up Lili of the Valley's "Teddy - for Mum" and coloured this cute wee chap with my Copic Ciaos.

Whiff of Joy #66

Hello girls. Welcome to my little corner of blogland. It's nice to have you here and I hope you find something to please the eye. I really appreciate you taking the time to visit. It's been a shade warmer here today with the sun shining although we have had rain as well.
I made this card to enter into the Whiff of Joy Challenge. A great excuse to ink up "Willow with Flowers" and colour her with my Polychromos Pencils and Sansador oil. The papers are Stampin Up "Mandy" and the lilac base is Bazzil. The butterfly was cut with a Martha Stewart punch and the other embellishments are all from my stash (or Stampaholics sub-store as my hubby calls it).

Papertake Weekly Sketch #34 & A Spoon Full of Sugar & Tuesday Taggers

Hi girls. Well that' sValentine's Day for another year. After nearly 40 years marriage we don't make a lot of it. We leave that to the younger generation. It's Valentine's Day for us every day. Anyway I hope you all had a great time. My manners are appauling - I'm rabbiting on and I haven't welcomed you to my blog yet. It's great that you have had time to pop in and I hope you find something to your taste.
I made this card and intend to enter it into three challenges:
Papertake Weekly who provided a fantastic sketch to follow
A Spoon Full of Sugar where there was a recipe of 1 paper, 1 embellishment, 1 button and 1 ribbon
Tuesday Taggers where the theme was "Love" .
Well I followed the sketch used 1 paper Basic Grey's "Indian Summer", a small flower shaped button on the sentiment, 1 ribbon and the flowers are 1 embellishment as far as I'm concerned. The fact that the teddy is holding an envelope with a heart on it satisfies the love theme (or am I
stretching things too far?). I did also use some Bazzil Bling and punched edges with Martha Stewart Doily punch and embossed the lighter card with Swiss Dots.
The image is Lili of the Valley's "Teddy with Flower" and is coloured using my Polychromos Pencils and Sansador oil. The flowers are handmade and everything else is from my stash.
Well I hope you like this and would love to read any comments you are kind enough to leave for me - they really mean a lot to me.
Have a great day crafting and go carefully.
Hugs,

Crafty Sentiments DT Card #5

Hi girls. Nice to see you here on my blog. I hope that things are going well for you all today and that you and your nearest and dearest are all in good health. I am so pleased that you could find time to pop in to see what I have for today.
Well it's Sunday again, the start of another week and time for my DT card for the 5th Challenge over at Crafty Sentiments. We are still in the early weeks of setting challenges so why not pop across and see the fantastic sketch that Suzette has provided for this week's challenge. It would be great to have you on board. I have used "Teddy with Balloon" from the Crafty Sentiments range and coloured him using my Polychromos Pensils, blended with Sansador oil. I find that they make a better job of furries than Copics. The papers are Bazzil and one of the many beautiful papers I won in Mandy's candy over at Crafty Fox Cards. The embellishments are all from my stash and the flowers are handmade.
I would value your opinions on this card and if you could spare the time to leave a comment that would be special. I value every comment I receive. If you do fancy joining in the challenge that would be great.
I trust you will have a good day and hope all goes well for you.
Hugs,

Sir Stampalot Mega Blog Hop Card


Hi girls. Thanks for calling in here to visit my blog. I trust that all is well with you and yours and that you are having a great day. I hope there is a little something here to please the eye and provide a little inspiration and make your visit worthwhile.
I entered Brenda's blog hop to celebrate the move to new premises by Sir Stampalot before I gave any thought to what I would produce as a card. I then found out that I had won the fantastic candy available on Pascale's blog so I really had to get the thinking cap on. The theme for the card was "Moving" and I was really stumped because most of my stamps are static. In the end I have used Magnolia's " "Edwin chasing Butterflies". It was the only "moving" stamp I had. The papers are Bazzil and GCD "No Worries" paper pad. The "fence" is made using a Martha Stewart border punch - I even tried to make it look as if Edwin was jumping over the fence. The butterflies and flowers are handmade. Everything else is from my stash.
Then believe it or not after all the panic I almost forgot to post this so I am entering this by the skin of my teeth.
Well I hope you like it and that you might be able to spare an extra minute to leave me a comment letting me know what you think.I value you opinions and advice and love reading all your comments.
Go carefully and enjoy the rest of your carfting and blogging day.
Hugs,

Basic Grey #13

Hi girls, great to have you calling in on me. I really appreciate you taking the time. I just hope you like what you see here. My back had eased off enough for me to attend another of Siobhan's classes at Stampaholics in Perth yesterday. I had a great time with the girls. We are all regulars and have really got to know each other enough to have a great laugh together. I thoroughly enjoyed it although I've got to admit that I got a bit carried away in the shop afterwards - very naughty Lol. I don't think hubby was over impressed but my stash is looking a lot healthier now.
I made this card for the Basic Grey challenge. The stamp is a Sugar Nellie called "Windswept". She is one of my favourite stamps and she is coloured using my Copic Ciaos. I used brown cardstock and put Basic Grey's "Indian Summer" paper on top. The flowers are by Magnolia and the corners were cut with a cuttlebug die. Everything else is from my stash.
If you can spare a minute it would be great if you felt like leaving a comment to let me know firstly that you visited and secondly what you think of the card. Your opinions are appreciated.
Have a great crafting day and take care.

Just Magnolia


Hi girls. Well for those who pop in to see me regularly I glad to let you know that all went well at the hospital this time round. The Consultant carried out the procedure and I felt the difference this time. Better still he told me that in future he will ensure that he deals with me himself. Hopefully I can look forward to a few months with less back pain. Thank you all for your concerned comments. Your support and interest means a lot to me.
So to today's project. When I saw the Just Magnolia challenge for this week and read through Lena Katrine's tutorial I could not resist having a go. I'm afraid I don't know the name of the paper I used to make the basket. I inked the edges of each strip just to highlight the weave. The images are both Magnolia's "Tilda with Tulips". The one on the front of the basket is mounted on Nestie shapes whereas the one on the back is cut out.
The handle is made out of a strip of pink card on which I have mounted a strip on which I punched a border on either side with a Martha Stewart Doily Edge punch. The butterfly is cut with a punch that I don't know the name of - if anyone recognises it I would love to know its name. The embellishments are all from my stash. The chocolate eggs are sitting staring back at me so I'm just wondering if hubby has counted them or if I can risk a dip into them Lol.
If you can spare a moment I would love your opinion on this one.
Thank you for taking time to call in and have a great day.
Hugs,

Cute Card Thursday #98 - Spots and Dots


Hi girls. Hope all is well with you in your small corner of blogland and that the crafting juices are flowing.
I am afraid that this is going to be another day when I won't be around until later on. Some of you might remember my hospital saga when I had to go back in for a day to have a steriod injection into my spine repeated two weeks ago because the doctor who attempted it during Christmas week went into the spinal fluid canal. Well two weeks ago I got the same doctor who was a bit afraid I think to repeat his mistake and didn't go far enough in with the needle and the injection never really took. He was obviously aware that he had messed up again because last week I got an unexpected phone call from the consultant's secretary saying that he had been made aware of what had happened and he wanted me to go back in today (Wednesday) so that he could do it himself. What is it they say about the third time? - I hope so. So please forgive me if I don't get round to commenting till tomorrow.
Anyway enough of that nonsense - I put this card together to enter the current Cute Card Thursday challenge where the theme is "Spots and Dots". I have used Magnolia's "Tilda with Balloons" and coloured her with Copic Ciaos. The papers are a navy blue Bazzil and an unknown spotted paper that was among the wonderful papers I won in Mandy's candy over at Crafty Fox Cards. The embellishments are, as usual, all from my stash. I quite enjoyed making this card and I hope you like it. If you have a minute I would really love it if you could leave a comment to let me know what you think of it. Your comments are valued and very much appreciated.
Have a good day and take care - enjoy your crafting and blogging.

Creative Inspirations #46 - Pink & Cream


Hi girls, nice to have you pop in here. I hope you find something on thos blog to bring a smile. I know that I am inspired and encouraged when I hop across all the blogs I follow, there are so many beautiful things to see. Just the thing to cheer me up in this horrible damp weather. Mind you we are well off here in this neck of the woods compared to our blogging friends in America who are dealing with about 3 feet of snow.
I made this card for The Creative Inspiration challenge where the theme was "Pink and Cream". I inked up Magnolia's "Valentine Tilda" and used Copic Ciaos to colour her face and hands and Polychromos to colour everything else. The papers are Bazzil and unknown scraps. The embellishments are all from my stash.
I hope you like this card and I would love to know what you think of it. The comments left on my blog are so helpful and it's great to know who who has been calling. Thank you for popping in and giving of your time. Whatever you are doing for the rest of the day have a good time, take care and stay safe.

A Spoon Full of Sugar #89 & Papertake Weekly

Hi again girls. I am really thrilled because I won Pascale's candy on the Winter Wonderland Blog Hop. Thank you for calling in on me and I hope your visit is rewarded with something that you find worth seeing. Now that we have got rid of our snow I'm really feeling it for those crafting friends I have made on the east coast of America. Over two feet of snow and it's still falling. Please take great care girls.
This card was made to enter into 2 challenges. A Spoon Full of Sugar gave a wonderful sketch to follow and the theme over at Papertake Weekly is "Love Actually". I inked up Magnolia's "Tilda with Hearts" and coloured with my Copic Ciaos. I used Bazzil card as a base and mount for the stamp. The paper is one of Bo Bunny's 12" Back to Backs - "Love Bandit Nuts 4 U". The hearts are cut by hand and the sentiments are handwritten - I thought for a Valentine card it would be a more personal touch. The other embellishments are all from my stash.
As always, it would be great if you felt like leaving a comment to let me know you've been here. I love reading them and get a lot of help and encouragement from them.
have a productive and happy day.
Hugs.

Crafty Sentiments DT Card #4

Hi girls, great to see you here on my blog. I don't know about where you are but the weather in this neck of the woods is what we Scots describe as "driech" - dull, damp and depressing. It's a joy to visit blogland and be cheered up by the magnificent creations you all make. I can only hope you feel the same after visiting here.
Sunday again so its time for my DT card for this week's Crafty Sentiments challenge blog. This is a new challenge blog and is picking up so if you fancy a challenge with a great sketch pop over and join in. It would be great to have you involved.
I have used "Teddy with Flowers", one of the recently released stamps on the Crafty Sentiments shop site by Kathy Hare and is coloured using my Copic Ciaos. I think this little chap looks really cute with his bunch of flowers. I have used scraps of unknown papers for the back ground and trimmings and the embellishments are all from my stash of goodies.
If you have anything you would like to say about this card please feel free to leave a comment. I love reading them and they are usually very helpful. I really appreciate the fact that you have called in and would love to know you've been. In any case, have a great day and enjoy your blogging and crafting.

Winter Wonderland #36 - Blog Hop Card + A Special Card


Hi to all out there in Blogland today. It's nice to have you pop in to see what is on offer today. I have two cards to show you today although I only made one of them - there is a very special card further down this post.

I made the card above as the last requirement in the marvellous Blog Hop over at Winter Wonderland. The card is to be based on a theme of "Candy Cane Red and White" although they did say that the candy canes were not a must. It seemed an ideal opportunity to use Whiff of Joy's "Henry Mouse sitting on a Candy Cane". I coloured it using my trusty Copic Ciaos. The "paper" is a textured card and the snowflakes were cut with a Martha Stewart punch and an Alpine punch. A fairly straightforward card but one I enjoyed making. I hope you like it and that you can find a minute to leave a comment to let me know what you think. I always enjoy reading what you have to say.
Now for:-
A Very Special Card

This is a very special card I just have to share with you. My neice Carol started card making not too long ago and I have been sending her some stamped images to help her get started. Now her eldest daughter Naomi had her 12th birthday last week and we sent her a card and a small gift. What a wonderful surprise we got in the mail yesterday. Naomi made this adorable thank you card and sent it to us.
I'm really chuffed with this because she took the time to make it herself. A budding blogger in the making perhaps. I know she pops in to my blog most days to have a look so I hope it will be a pleasent surprise for her to see her card here. Thank you so much Naomi we will treasure this card.
Well that's it for today. Thank you for popping in on me, go carefully and enjoy your crafting day.

Hugs,
