CES Challenges DT Card...........Pink, Brown & Aqua

Hello my lovelies how are you all? I've been quite poorly again this last few days so I'm sorry I've not been round to see you but I will be catching up with you all today. Thankfully my op is in less than a week & it cant come soon enough lol. I actually scheduled this post last night on the hope Im catching up on some sleep lol.

Anyway its Saturday so of course that means its time for CES CHallenges......this week the lovely Jane has set the theme & its a colour challenge this week........

PINK, BROWN & AQUA

I didnt think I'd be able to make something but then at 9pm last night I remembered I had an image coloured from a few weeks ago that I could use, so made a card.

I also made this card for a friend for her birthday so I'm really hoping she likes it........fingers crossed!!

I've used Bo Bunny 'Gabrielle' papers perfect papers I think for this challenge. The flowers & 6x6 On The Edge card blank are also from Crafty Emma's Store.

This of course is Teddy Bea 'Your Wish Will Come True', she is one of my fave Teddy Bo images.

She was of course coloured with Copics & I added yellow stickles to her wand & Star Dust stickles to her wings.

The sentiment is Whiff Of Joy & the button is from my stash. The 'Birthday Wish List' is a Whimsy Stamp & finally got to ink it up. The corner was cut out using a Marianne die out of kraft card & giving it a splodge of white acrylic paint. Lace, kraft card & gems are from my stash.

Well thats it please pop on over to see my teamies gorgeous creations.

Thank you soooooooo much for stopping by I will see you all soon.

Bildmalarna Christmas...........

Hello everyone how are you all? These days are just flying by & I dont seem to get everything done. I'm so busy at the mo I havnt coloured for a few days instead I've been relying on my box of coloured images.......

Here is another from that coloured box these have been done for ages & I really want to get more crimbo cards done.......

So I used 2 Bildmalarna stamps 'Mimo With Stocking Cap' & 'Mimosa With Candles' I got these both from Dies To Die For.....I think lol but I cant find the Mimosa one anymore...........

The gorgeous papers are Websters Pages & Emma has these on sale at her shop at the mo. I've had these since last year but I'm thinking I may get some more while they are cheap lol.

Both images were coloured with copics & Mimo's hat has has Frosted Lace stickles adde to his hat & bobble. I've sprayed the Poinsettia's with glimmer mist & sprinkled with glitter dust. The plastic leaves either side I found in my stash.

The sentiment is from a LOTV sentiment stamp set. The edging at the bottom I cut out using a Whiff Of Joy die. A4 card is from my stash & the craftwork 'On The Edge' Card is from here.

Well thats it from me I will do some more blog-hopping before I get back to my crocheting, I have a few baby blankets to do. I have 1 to do for my cousin who is having a little boy in October, its a surprise tho lol & I'm making her a keepsake as well.

Teddy Bo Time..............

Howdie doodie all my lovelies how are you all.

My little yorkie man Charlie went the groomers this morning to have all his hair cut off & a pamper OMG he looks sooooo different, I actually thought Craig had picked someone else's dog up lol. They nearly didnt let him go cus they all fell in love with him.........he's got a brilliant temperment tho bless him......

Anyway onto my card which is for Teddy Bo........I'm actually on doing a commision for someone with Teddy Bea but its not a card but I thought I would have a break & make this as I saw the challenge this morn & just HAD to enter............

This is TeddyBoBea & is part of 3 tags & its called 'Three In A Row' which you can get from

Teddy Bo & Co. I have just used 1 of the tags.

The challenge over there is 'Black, White & 1 colour of your choice' well I chose browns cus I have this gorgeous new Prima pad that I was dying to use............

The label is from some ribbon in my stash & I just cut off a small part of it to make a label.

The crocheted flower I made myself a while ago & instead of using wool I used the thin crochet yarn but doubled it up to make the flower. Button is from my button jar.

Hopefully you will be able to see the sparkle on the fly & on parts of her dress & the heart on her arm.

I used a silver spica pen to add some sparkle.

The twill & button are from my stash, the bakers twine & the 6x6 Petal Blank Card are from

Crafty Emma's Store.

Added lace & black velvet ribbon at the bottom.

Well thats it from me I'm gonna try finish my hopping. Having to hop in bits at the mo cus I've had a bad head for over 3 days......I'm gonna book myself in for an eyetest incase its that.......so I'm taking a bit longer to visit you all peeps but I will get there.

Custom Made................

Hello my lovelies bit of a quickie as I'm in the middle of cooking chillie Con Carne.

I decided to have another go at one of these less is more kinda cards.........I know I always usually failed but I've tried to do a male card this time as I have had this stamp for ages & long time & its about time it got inked..............

This is a wood block stamp.......I do tend to neglect these they sit on my shelves crying!! Its by Stamps Happen & you can get it here. I did it in the same colours as I love the red!!

I love this stamp I think its brill for those male cards.........actually I think its brill for anyone who loves cars.

I layered the image onto a piece of grey card & a piece of red card & glued it to this 6x6 On The Edge card which I got from Crafty Emma's Store as also the card candy which I made to look like screws lol.

Well thats it I'm off to link up then dish tea out.

Will be round to you all later as I'm behind on visiting as a migraine kept me off lappy nearly all day :0(

For my card today I have used the latest fantastic release of Steampunk images from Kenny k, my favourite set yet & set 2 of this collection is due beginning of September so watch this space my lovelies...........oooh I cant wait!!

This is 'Lady Victoria' I had to use her she is my fave....yeah ok cus she also has the same name as me...I'm thinking hubby would probably like me in the outfit lol...

The chain thingy & sentiment charm thing are Tim Holtz.........I'm good at naming things arnt I .........lol.

Used gorgeous cream lace & a length of beautiful deep red velvet ribbon.

The paper clip is Tim Holtz & the flower I made myself with scrunched paper & tulle & distressed it with inks to make it look aged........

Isnt she beautiful.... I have coloured her with copics. The image she is stood on is a digi image but I cant remember the company.....I lightened it in my arty thing on lappy & then when printed it got a good beating with Vintage Photo & a bit of Walnut distress inks. I then give it a few coats of UTEE & cracked it....all to make it look old.....

I added to cogs from hubsters watch again lol....1 in the corner of the image & 1 in the top left corner of the card & added a gem to the centre.

The paper I used for this card is Bunny Bo 'Timepiece' which I think is perfect for this sort of card.

Crafty Purple Frog Challenges DT Card..........

Hello my lovlies running really late today, 1 of those very busy days so will just get on.

We have a new challenge over at Crafty Purple Frog this fortnight which is....

RED HOT!!!

I have used the perfect 'Red Hearts' pyramage but only used the base layer, you can use these images in a variety of ways so they are perfect for those quick makes too.

I found these blank pillow boxes in my alterables box that I brought ages ago & still not opened the packet.....see I'm like that with everything not just stamps lol. These are fab for those quick makes. Now I cant remember where I got mine from but the company I buy my kraft card & other card from sells them so here is the link, this company is fab & you should check it out.

I decorated it in Prima A4 paper, tied some satin ribbon around, gems & a flower & of course the image.

I decided not to fold over the top & instead cut the other oval out & tie some ribbon through.

Perfect little gift box........which takes no time at all..........

The Ching Chou-Kuik image of course is only available from the Crafty Purple Frog store.

We look forward to seeing your red creations this fortnight. Please pop on over to see my teamies creations, go they will stun you with theirs.....hot...hot...hot....

Well I'm away now I'm doing some hopping now while I have me cuppa then I will be round laters my lovelies.

Thank you soooo much for stopping by mmwah....

Crafts & Me DT Card............Blue's/Blue's & Greens

Good morning my lovelies how are you all? Lurrrrvvvvly & sunny here by the sea this morning at least I have my washing out this morning....
Well today is the new challenge over at Crafts & Me Challenges & this week its the Rockin' Rubbah Girlz to challenge you & our lovely Angela has chosen the theme which isssssssssss.....
BLUE'S/BLUE'S & GREENS
Yep you know I love blue's so this was easy peezy for me lol............
Now I know I'm on the Rockin' Rubbah's I dropped a clanger & used a digi image, my bad!!

My excuse is I already has this beauty coloured up & she was perfect for this challenge as she was in the right colours..........lol

This one is to try show you the sparkle & bling lol. I added glossy accents to the moon & then covered it with glass glitter & then went around the edge with Picket Fence stickles. I also added stickles to the blue rose. The crochet flower I made.........I was trying different styles last week with my crochet.

The white corner was a gold metal corner but I splodged some white acrylic on it as its really rare I use gold & I've had these forever....... The sentiment is again a Whimsy ticket stamp & cut out using the ticket die.

The jute, fabric, buttons & gems are from my stash which I've had forever & long time lol.

The image is 'Violet' by the fabulous Hannah Lynn, yep my fave artist as you know & of course she is exclusive to Crafts & Me Store.

The papers are a mix of Prima & Websters Pages, they have had their edges duffed & inked & then splodged with a bit of white acrylic..........these are tough papers so they can handle the beating they got from me........its a tough job but someone's gotta do it lol.

Well me thinks thats about it from me but please pop on over to see my awesome teamies as they always make such stunner, I really do work with a talented bunch of girlies, both digi & rubbah they are all fab!!!
