CES Challenge DT Card & Sweet Stampin' DT Card............

Well good morning everyone hope you are all feeling bright & cheery......I am actually typing this at 1 o'clock this morning & sceduling it......fingers crossed it posts when I ask it to.....I will ask it nicely.
As you can tell by the title I have 2 DT cards to show you this morning so I'm gonna get straight to it....
Firstly we have
I have combined my DT work this week so I'm posting the challenges to refer to my work, hopefully you will understand once you have read/seen it all lol.
So sit yourself down with a nice cuppa, grab a few choccy bickies & put your feet up & relaxxxxxx...
This week over at Sweet Stampin' it is Challenge 50 & this week its team Carrie's turn.
The challenge this week is a fab Sketch.......
Here is my interpretation of this weeks sketch......
This is Henry from WOJ & he has been coloured with Copics, list will be at the end of post. I love this little fella he is soooo cute & he is carrying sweet stuff mmmmm yummy!!!
Here is the sketch to follow this week...

Now you can rotate it however you want as long as we can still see the sketch. For my card I have used My Mind's Eye 'Holly Jolly' papers from Crafty Emma's Store they have been distressed & then inked with 'Bundled Sage' distress ink.

To make the corners I used my corner die cut run through the Bigshot. The mint coloured & the dark brown card are from Papermill. I also put a Dew Drop on each corner which are also from Emma's as is the Curly Brown mulberry flower (I love these things) & also the pearl hat pin which I coloured in with a Copic to make it green. The heart is from my new MS punch which I got from here I then inked the edges with 'Vintage Photo' distress ink. There is also some gorgeous pretty lace under there which I got from Bunny Zoe's

The sentiment is actually from a set I won on Charisma's challenge blog & won a few sets from The Cutting Cafe which has a lot of fab sets & so it was sooo hard for me to choose. I printed it out onto card & then inked the edges with 'Bundled Sage' distress ink & stuck a Dew Drop on. Henry has diamond stickles to all his white fur on his hat. The flower has been sprayed with Glimmer Mist & then had a sprinkling of magical dust. The flower at the bottom corner I made using my Magnolia Doo Hickey die which works a whole lot better in the Bigshot, it got inked with the same inks used throughout the card & then a button from my stash added.
Get yourself over to Sweet Stampin' Challenges & check out my fabulous teamies creations, they are stunning!!!!

Onto my next DT creation. This 1 is for none other than
This week it is the lovely Sandie's turn & the theme this week is.....
Chocolate Caramel
Now again I kind of screwed up a little & forgot about the caramel by the time I had remembered I had already made the card.....I was going for Mint Chocolate.....I am such a numpty!!!!
Anyway here is the other part of the set...........

Here is my choccy creation. I have used all the same materials as I have with my card & tried my best to keep to the same layout as well. This was actually made with a mint aero in my mind, hence the colours but all that was in the fridge at the time was my son's Caramel bar......see I got Caramel into it somehow lol.

It is a the big bar of Caramel. My hubby did actually pop to the shop after & get me a big bar of mint Aero but unfortunately the Aero bars are bigger & so wouldn't fit in..................oh darn it!!! You can guess what happened next...........yes thats right it melted away.......mmmmm lol!!

Here is Henry up close & personal. Behind him you will see I've stamped a Magnolia Christams text stamp as a background, I also did it to the card & it was stamped in the same bundled sage.

Here they are as a set. Copics used are........
BG34,G00,G000.R46,R11,E95,E33,YR20,E37,E33 & E53.
The prize to win over at CES this week is......


Pop yourself over to CES Challenges & check out the fabulous creation the girlies have made, they are very yummy!!!!
Well I'm sorry for the long post & the trillions of piccies lol....just a slight exageration there lol. I hope you will join us at both challenges we would so much love to see you there.
Take care & thankyou once again for stopping by. Big hugs to everyone that does, you are all fabulous.

Bye-D-Bye for now
