Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Saturday and another new challenge at

Sweet Stampin'

 

This week the theme from Team Abi is

Distressing

 

For my card I've used one of my favourite Gorjuss girls from Sugar Nellie. I went with kraft card and some LOTV Nitwit Collections paper. I distressed all round the edges with my Tim Holtz distressing tool. I mounted the image on some corrugated card that I also distressed at the edges. The tickets are by Tim Holtz. Some natural jute ribbon and some roses to finish.

Sugar Bowl GD

A few weeks ago I won The Sugar Bowl challenge and the lovely Fiona asked if I'd like to be Guest Designer for this challenge. I was delighted to take part as I've been a Sugar Nellie fan practically since they started.I'm using the Diane Duda image To The Moon which is available from the shop. Usually I steer clear of male cards,but I really loved this image and really enjoyed making this card. I've went overboard with my Wink Of Stella glitter pen which is my new favourite.You can't make much of it out but I used it round the edge of the card,on the punched stars and on the rocket. As always the Sugar Bowl Sweeties have done a fantastic job.

This image is called Kitty and is adorable. I've coloured her with Copic markers apart from her apron and hat bow,which I paper pieced. I used lovely spring colours.

Luv a Latte

Have been meaning to blog this card for the last few days and finally got round to it. I coloured the image when I was visiting Susan. I took Louis over for a few hours to play with her two boys. She's called Luv A Latte and is a Simply Sassy stamp from Sugar Nellie.She's coloured with Copics (no surprises there)


The papers are MME.Sentiment is SU Oh So Many Sayings and is stamped inside the punched out area using the SU Word Window punch.The other punch is a Martha Stewart punch around the page.Buttons and pearls from stash.

Finally got the electrics fitted in the cabin.Was out today and chose the light fitting for it.Just need to get some flooring then it's off to Ikea to kit it out!

Sugar Bowl Challenge # 65

Wow I can't believe I've managed to make another challenge card. I've not posted this much for a while. Well at least it's a lot for me!...lol.
The challenge over at The Sugar Bowl was to follow Maria Therese's sketch and the option of blue.I've used the Simply Sassy image from Sugar Nellie called Team Spirit and coloured her with my Copic Markers in colours to match the gorgeous Bo Bunny Liberty papers.The pom poms I made using a strip of blue card and cutting a fringe all along it and scrunching it up. I thought it looked quite effective. The star is a Sizzix die and the alphabet stamps are from Fiskars.I've dotted all around the blue cardstock with my white gel pen. The eyelets are just set in a line on a plain piece of white card.

Here's a close up picture of the hand made pom poms


Off to lie down in a dark room now....lol.
Only joking!

I've nearly finished another card so watch this space!
