Cute Card Thursday - Blooming Gorgeous

This card is for the current Cute Card Thursday challenge. The image is Valentine Magnolia and the words are from Visible Image. I've coloured the paper flowers with Promarkers and added some paper centres.

Anya ATC

And I couldn't resist using the other main image on the Me Time Anya sheet to make an ATC for a blue swap - the sentiment is the same as before.

Anyone for Anya Sketch #6 Challenge

This is for the new Anyone for Anya sketch challenge.

The image is from the Me Time Anya sheet and I've combined it with pink and black backing and some pink shaded paper flowers. The sentiment is from the same Anya sheet.

Penny Black Birthday ATCs

These are two birthday RAK ATCs that I made over the weekend using some Penny Black stamps. The little mouse image and the wording are separate stamps but I thought they look perfect together.

As before, the backing paper is from Craft Creations and I've highlighted the images by matting them onto black paper.

Anyone for Anya Heart 4 Heart's Sake Challenge

Here's my card for the latest Anyone for Anya Challenge, Heart 4 Heart's Sake.

I've used Stella from The Greeting Farm, coloured with Promarkers and then on a scalloped circle. The backing paper is from Craft Creations and then I've added some red ribbon, punched hearts and paper flowers and finally some red Nailhead gems.

Cute Card Thursday - Challenge 96 Fairy Fantastic

This card is for the Cute Card Thursday Challenge, Fairy Fantastic. The Image is a Sugar Nellie one called Guardian Angel - I've coloured it and applied frosted lace Stickles to both sets of wings although it doesn't show up on the scan.

The background is from Kanban and I've coloured the Prima flowers to match the image colour.

Quixotic Challenge 10 ....

The challenge is to ink up an old stamp or (like me!) a stamp you've had for a while and not used before!!

This image is from Pink Gem - not sure why I haven't used it before. I used Prima flowers and peel off dots and words on the background and some swirly and dotty purple paper.

Aperture Card

This card was made for an aperture swap using the square of card left after cutting out a scalloped circle. The image is Chelsea from The Greeting Farm and I've added ribbon and some paper flowers coloured with Promarkers to blend in with the design. I've also added some Nailhead gems at the opposite ends of the ribbons.

Anyone for Anya Black and White +1 Challenge

This is another card made using Ruby from The Greeting Farm and is for the Anyone for Anya Black and White + 1 Challenge - my extra colour is pink.

Cute Card Thursday - Challenge 95 Pink & Grey

This is the card I've made today for this week's Cute Card Thursday Challenge.

The image is Ruby from The Greeting Farm coloured with Promarkers. The grey and black background paper is from an Anita Christmas pad and I've coloured the little paper flowers with the rose pink Promarker to match the image. Finally the sentiment is from Hero Arts.

Stitched Decoupage Card

This is something a little bit different to the other cards I've uploaded recently and was made for a swap. The stitched frame is from a Stitching Cards pattern and the decoupaged figure just fitted perfectly inside. It's then matted onto gold and finally dark blue pearl paper.

Winter Wonderland - Week 33 Sketch .....

Something a bit different for me - I thought I'd have a go at a challenge on one of the blogs I've been following.

This one is a sketch challenge from the Winter Wonderland blog - the link is in my blog list at the side of this page. It doesn't have to be a winter themed card so I thought I'd do an early Valentine card with a very cute Lily and Milo design. It's backed onto pink card which I've Cuttlebugged and then some Craft Creations backing paper.

In the Pink ....

This is one of my favourite stamps - it comes from a sheet of different 'girl' images but I can't remember the name of the stamp company! The background paper came from a free pack with "Simply Cards and Papercraft" magazine and I've added some pink Bazzill card, black paper, pink ribbon and pink Nailhead gems.

Sweet Wonderful You ......

These images are all from the Hero Arts clear stamp set called "Sweet Wonderful You" - I used them to make a set of three ATCs for a swap. The backing paper is from Craft Creations and the flowers from Papermania.

Snowy Days

This is a card I made yesterday for a blue card swap on one of the Yahoo groups I belong to. The image is from Susana's Custom Art and Card Design - a new stamp that I just couldn't resist! The backing paper is a couple of years old and made by Craft Creations - I thought it went really well with the design.

Another One for the New Year .....

This is another New Year card made for a swap using a new stamp from Magnolia. The background paper is a design by Basic Grey and image and scalloped border were cut with Nestabilities.
