This card is made from digital downloads from Pink Petticoat - Fairy Lights. Coloured in the tree with a copic marker to match the bp. Added stickles to the stars and to the berries on the holly paper. I had coloured some buttons with a red copic, didn't think they were going to dry, stuck on the gems as baubles instead, and then the buttons eventually dried. Oh well, they'll do for another card!

This little dude came as an extra feebie with my order from High Hopes - coloured with copics. Forgot myself when I was doing my shadows and have the shine on his boots going in the wrong direction if you know what I mean!
I'm a bit of a sucker for stamps with doggy's on them, so I love this Watson stamp from High Hopes. He's a bit like Ruby, her nose is always stuck in something! Coloured using watercolours with help from Crissy's tutorial. I love how my grass turned out.

How's this for a Christmas card with a difference! I received my order of High Hopes stamps this morning, so expect to see a few posted here!
It's such a horrible dark damp day here - midday and I needed the light on in my craft room (or should I say kitchen!) But this little chap is sure to cheer anyone up! Coloured him with copic markers and added some stickles for a bit of sparkle to his fancy shirt, nose and hat. Added some dew dr
ops to give some dimension to his juggling balls. My lovley orange flowers were sent to me by Linda.
This is the rest of my goodies which came from Simon Says Stamp - the little Love Birds stamp from Art Gone Wild and the prima dotty flowers (the dots didn't quite match my paper, so I just went over them with a copic marker)
heard today that I won the Simon Says Get Well Challenge, added to the Stamptacular Sunday one - total $50 to spend in the Simon Says store. I'm off work the rest of the week (whaddya mean I'm only just back!) and it gives rain tomorrow so I've a feeling I might be going 'shopping' for more crafty goodies!
My lovely postie delivered a parcel today from Simon Says Stamp - goodies I won in a challenge a while back. Isn't this little baby just the cutest! Coloured him with copics and added some clear stickles to the bubbles. Then added a little heart eyelet and a safety pin to finish.
This was one of those special requests where you just sigh! I was asked to make a card for a girl who's flying off to Prague for her birthday, preferably with an airplane. Of course I don't have ANY stamps or images like that, so I had to do a bit of lateral thinking and remembered this old Snoopy stamp. YEAH! Problem solved! Coloured him with copic markers, added clear stickles to his flying hat and scarf and popped up on dimensionals.

Well its been another dark gloomy wet and windy weekend. Millions of leaves and the odd tree down! But on the bright side I won last week's Stamptacluar Sunday challenge with this card!
This was my other new Helz Cuppleditch stamp, its sooo cute! Got my watercolours out for a change, after watching some of Crissy Armstrong's tutorials - if you need a bit of help with watercolouring its definately the place to go for some great advice!
This is most definately my last Halloween card, I've kinda had a sickner of them and the looming postal strike is the perfect excuse not to make any more as they'll never arrive in the post on time!
Etsy Inspired Challenge #59 is to visit The Little Red Door as the inspiration. These little houses just said 'New Home' to me so I've dusted off my stamps from http://www.onefourzero.co.uk/. Coloured with copic markers and wooden flower added.
This week's challenge at Just Us Girls is to make your own flower - there's a great tutorial on their blog showing how to make tissue paper flowers. Unfortunately I haven't got any tissue so I made mine using the 2 smallest scalloped nesties and inked and curled the edges. Think it looks not too bad for a first attempt!
This was another of my new goodies - I've been eyeballing this adorable Helz Cuppleditch stamp for AGES and finally caved in and ordered it. Don't ya just love his little bandage!
This little froggy was one of the goodies that popped through my post box today - I ordered some new stamps from the Glitter Pot on Monday and they arrived today, how's that for se
rvice! Coloured with copic markers and popped up on dimensionals. BG versamarked with an old flower stamp. Some red stickles added for a bit of bling.
I made this card for my friend who is a serious cat lover, but it's one of those cards that kinda looked better in my mind! Not sure why I don't like it, maybe the colours, or maybe my pants job on the colouring! Anyway, its too late now to make another card!
I managed to get NINE challenges into this card, but to be honest it was a bit of a fluke as quite a few of
them were halloweeney type challenges. Bats coloured with copic markers, eyes with a white gel pen; heads glued down and wings popped up on dimensionals. Black stickles added for some glitz.
It's been a terrible dark drizzly day today ... the highlight was buying a new hoover (!) But on the bright side I had plenty of time for crafting as the weather was too rubbish to do anything else, and life's too short for housework!

I gave this little girl another outing today as I need some birthday cards for my stash. Layout from Sketch Saturday #73 and colour combo from Colour Create challenge #29 - red, yellow, black & white
How's this for a Clean and Simple card from the Fall-To-Layout #64. Just a piece of fancy mirrore
d paper, a bit of ribbon and a silver flower buckle-thingy and ta-da... finished! (I'm not entirely convinced that I actually like it though!)
I needed a card in a hurry for Greg's niece who just passed her driving test, so cased an older ca
rd of mine from a splitcoaststamper clean and simple challenge. These stamps are from one of my oldest sets from www.onefourzero.co.uk Popped the blue cars up on 1mm dimensionals and the red one on 2mm dimensionals.
High Hopes challenge #48 is Lets Go Green (recycle something) I had planned to use some of my recycled ribbon (I keep all the ribbons from the inside shoulders of new clothes) but I went ahead and put my card together without checking I actually had some ribbon that matched! So I ended up 'recycling' a button ...feeble, eh?
Made this for my SIL - Creative Inspirations challenge #31 is Family, so it was perfect timing for this card! Stamps from Eat Cake Graphics, coloured with copic markers
rom SPCC #19
you seen the cute new stamp range? I love her little girl with the cupcakes.
