Here is my card I made for our first Challenge

I used My Minds eye designer paper. For the sentiment I used a PTI stamp and for the cut-outs I used nestabilites. For the ribbon I used May Arts satin ribbon in blue and white and May arts grosgrain red ribbon.

Christmas in July #21 – The Squirrel and Fox Challenge

Hi all! I am super excited to announce that I am a Design team member for The Squirrel and Fox. I am thrilled to be working with some talented ladies! This week is my first challenge and the theme is Christmas in July. For my card I used an image “Christmas Friends” by  The digi doodle shop I colored in this wintery image using my Copic markers. I added some clouds with blue ink and used glitter and flocking to replicate snow. I think next time I will add the flocking first and then a little bit of glitter after. I used echo holiday digi designer paper and SU cardstock as the base. The stamped sentiment is from basic grey and I added a brad on the top left. I also added a red crinkled ribbon.( which is available at my online shop). Digi doodle shop is sponoring this challenge. Now we would love to see your winter wonderland project and don’t forget to check out the other DT members and their inspirational cards. Thanks for stopping by!

Pretty in Pink!

Good afternoon everyone! So before I left to Florida I purchased the new tiddlyinks Summer Sweet Wryn. I couldn’t wait to use this adorable digi stamp. For this card I incorporated two different themes , one of which is from Tiddlyinks Pretty in Pink challenge  #89 and the other is the Deconstructed Sketch #58. Two of my fav challenge blogs. For the DP I used a digi kit. I punched holes on one layer and stitched the other layer. I added vintage lace on the bottom and cut out a cute banner. The sentiment is an SU stamp and I added three pearls right under it. I added stickle glue on the lollipops. This was a really fun card to make especially with these two themes combined.

Thanks for stopping by and please don’t forget to check out our new challenge blog. We start our very first challenge on July 1st. Follow us at

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay

 

As if raising five children in the frozen land of the North was not enough of a challenge, Jodie Mackrell decided to dip her cold little Canadian toes into the world of papercrafting by opening an online store full of her illustrations. That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we’re still growing! From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you’re bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects. Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week! If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps at Totally Stampalicious. And finally, join theBugaboo Stamps DT for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug.

That means for this challenge you can choose to use either a Digi Darla image OR Bugaboo image!!

I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started card making about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a card making kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrap booking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people. I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself. This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!
