Before I start my post let me show you my poorly family over the weekend

I've got two cards to show you, they are from the kids for Daddy for Valentine. On the 1st one I used Delicious Doodles image :Zebra & Foal. Just love this cute image and perfect for Daddy. I'm gonna enter this card into LIM where the theme is one layer&stripes not to hard is it? Got an other idea too to make an other card so I hope I'll have time to do it

My 2nd card is for CDAC PC and I used this fab image from Melissa T Liban Illustrations, the branch stamp is one of my newest one and it's from Alys inky fingers and had to use my new X-cut punch too and I used the punched out butterflies from it too and the ticket is TLC Creations

Here is a close up, should've done a side view to see those butterflys as they really cute

and here is the inside

I can not believe Whitney Houston's gone, I loved her as a singer and as an actress, RIP

PS: sorry not blogging as much as I usually do but come back on Sunday and you'll see the reason

I'm still alive

2012-01-12T21:29:00.003Z

Hi everyone, sorry missing from blog land. I'm having a little break and working on something as well what takes my time up too and as Mesi started nursery 4 mornings a week I started to socialise as well, I so needed it. I'm doing a 5 weeks course once a week now called: Confident parent, confident child and it's BRILL just learnt why is Alfie is so naughty at home, woo-hoo. So lets hope now I can deal with it. I wish every school would do such a course as this as I'm not the only mum who's got problem with the child(children) especially boys.

Well anyway onto my DT project and I'm late with it as our PC packed up and PC doctor told us it's gonna be expensive to fix it and might takes a bit of time as needed new parts to be ordered so we bought a laptop, I tell you something my OH wasn't pleased having this after Xmas and we need a new fridge too fairly soon as it's on it's last legs now

Ooops my post lol so over at Paper Cupcakes we had a freebie for you, sorry it was up for a grab only 48 hrs AND PC is fortnightly now.

The challenge is for this fortnight: We are kicking the year off with a challenge that is "from the heart". We would like you to use an image that has a heart in it and your overall card has to be some kind of thank you card or card of encouragement.

The twist to this challenge is after you have created it you are challenged to send/give it to someone who has touched your life with some type of kindness over these last several weeks or someone that needs some type of encouragement/lifting up.

And here is my offering

The snowball is by Crafty Ann's ffrom CDAC PC and the image and WA is by Nina and as usual I water coloured my image and the bottom is distress ink.

Below is an other card for my CDAC PC. I needed to make a 70est birthday card and thought the snowball is really posh and with glitter spray over the ball is really looks like a shaken up snowball. I made the 70 and Happy Birthday by PC

Sorry not being here and I'll be MIA for a while again but once I'm back I might even have a bit of blog candy for you

Thanks popping by

Winter fun

2011-12-12T22:04:00.003Z

Before I get onto my challenge post, I just need to tell you something. Today we went to see Alfie's work at school (he's in reception) and I was extremely proud of him. I always moan how naughty he is but boy he was one of the best one in class. When Mrs Scott said freeze he did and he did what he was told to do strait away, that is something what never happens at home lol. Just could not believe how nicely he sat on the floor to get ready to go home.I was gobed smacked how good he is at school and how hand full he is at home.

I tell you; when I was die cutting my WA it moved and cut it in half grrrrrrrrr so I distressed the 2 bits and stick it together from the back and die cut it again and to be honest I LOVE the result. The paper and WA is TLC Creations. The image you can find it in the shop

On my tree I've got silver glitter spray and on my snow which is flower soft I sprinkled some glitter before it dried and I used some stickles too

As you can see my embalies are huge but as it's gonna be hand delivered I didn't mind going OTT they all from my stash. Tried to do 2 pic from the side so you can see the depth of it

Christmas extravagenza

2011-12-09T18:57:00.000Z

I'm sure still loads of us doing the last Xmas cards so this should be easy challenge to fallow over at Delicious Doodles. We asked you to make a project to reflect X-travagent Xmas and if you not sure what's that all about go to the blog and see what's the DT came up with. On my project I have use Debbi Moore's Christmas Pop up template CD and round I used Holly. The paper is from my digi stash but can't remember which one now but it's a freebie. I made this over a month ago. Here it is

On the back the label is by TLC Creations and the WA too. I did blow up the label though as this little project is A5 size in front and bit smaller on the top but the with is still same as an A5 and it can be flat posted. I was really pleased with it once it was ready and so was the person who gave me the order.

The 12th week

2011-12-03T20:19:00.002Z

Final week over at The Craft Barn Blog and here is the theme.

Guss what I never realised I was supposed to finish with December so mine is August as I was going all over the place with my calendar. Guys non of you told me when you were leaving the lovely comments we start with January lol Never mind maybe next year lol
Anyway here is my offering for the 12th week
The pine digi is from Sassy Cheryl and the worm is Paper Cupcakes. The green BP/DP is from TLC Creations and the top one is from The Sum of All Crafts

I have to say I couldn't capture the sparkle I've got. I tried day light and I tried tonight too. You can see a bit of sparkle on the birds, top of the bird feed and on the flowers on the right, unfortunately the lovely shimmer on the pine tree is not showing BUT I do promise does have sparkle just soooooooooo hard to catch it.

I've got a missing one from week7 and here is the theme

And her is mine

The paper is from TLC Creations& the digi is from Ellie. Below you can see I embossed the coat, bag, shoes and the bow too but can't see it. The little elephant turned out really pretty. Oh yeah I paper pieced her.

Here is an entry for the CDAC PC #8 hop over to see who's digi it is, the paper TLC Creations

This is for now but will be back with the grand final tomorrow morning

First I star with my forgotten Delicious Doodles Card where the theme is:Hairy Legs, you got to love this one lol

Here is my offering

I've used the Xmas bubbles 2 and and Bark at the moon you can find them in the shop. The WA made by me and papers from stash

The next 2 cards are for Paper Cupcakes where the theme is Shabby Chick or Vintage Xmas card. I used the Xmas tickets. Behind my window is Xmas ticket image lol the paper is from TLC Creations

I love this die, I bought it not long ago. I was drooling over it whenever I seen it on-line so finally I managed to afford it.

Here again used the same Xmas ticket and Delicious Doodles Xmas buble

My next DT project is my TioT and we got Alter it week and you need to alter a can. Here is mine. The aper is Debbi Moor and the Bingo Ticket is Paper Cupcakes. I'm gonna feel it up with goodies to a craftie friend and will put the lid on it ( I opened my can the other way round so recepient can open it the normal way lol )

My last card is my CDAC PC7 and MMSC #132

I'm soooooooooooooooo behind....

2011-11-24T00:24:00.000Z

...with my Xmas cards. Here is 2 what I'm gonna enter into 2 challenges. My first card is my LIM card and this week theme is silhouettes. The bubble is Delicious Doodles but the image inside is Paper Cupcakes Xmas ticket. I just cut the image out in my Craft Artist program and placed it inside the bubble once the bubble's middle was cleared with the same program as it's a JPEG image. My background is my polka dots embossing folder what's been distressed.

My 2nd card is my ADFD and the theme is flock. I used the tutorial from their blog and added a flock on the coco cup, you do need cream on your coco lol The BPs/DPs are TLC Creations as well as the WA

See there is flock on the cup, yummy cream lol

And I got a Calendar page to share with you. At The Craft Barn this week the theme is Grey, pale yellow & bear branches. I wasn't happy with my October page so I remade it which means I still got an extra page to make after the challenge finished lol Anyway the digi is TLC Creations and the bottom BP/DP and the top DP/BP is from The Sum of All Craft, there are loads of freebies on that blog too.

I just do hope I managedto do justice to this theme. I have to say I like the top DP/BP

Honey I shrunk the.....

2011-11-21T21:25:00.002Z

Plastic

But before I start my post I just have to share what the postman brought to me on Saturday. Few weeks ago the random thingamajig selected me over at MMSC

Look 4 House Mouse stamps, just love them they are my first ones oh yes they are wooden mounted as well.

Over at TioT we asked you to get your shrink plastick out and uset it. My little charm on my card is shrink plastick. I've got a set of leaf stamps in my stash and I don't really use it enough. The little charm goes so well with the gorgeous Angel. I I just love these colours together, at Paper Cupcakes we asked you to use Otange, Brown & Yellow colours as well as using a thanks giving image or saying. I think it's not so hard is it? These colours just remind me of walking in the park and seeing the fallen leaves.

Here is my offering using the Fall Angel-Give Thanks and a thanks giving ticket as well.

The yellow and Orange papers are from Create with TLC

For this card I have fallowed the MMSC #130 but I rotated it.

Sorry had to cheat a bit guys, so have to get on with my Xmas card swaps and no time to think different things for my DT project plus I really needed the little charm on my Paper Cupcakes card lol

And also I'm gonna enter my card into the fallowing challenges.

Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Thanksgiving/Thank you

Jelly Park Challenge: Give thanks

Craft your passion challenge: Photo inspirations, I picked the colours

"Let's rock"

2011-11-14T21:03:00.002Z

Hi Guys

Sorry being a bad blogger the last 2 weeks. I had my in-laws for a week then I was sooooooooo tired I just couldn't get myself front of the PC and blog. But now I'm well rested till Mesi not gonna play up again at night time lol

So anyway let me start with my Delicious Doodles project and this week is Remembrance. Some of us have chosen to remember those who fought and lost their lives to defend our country and freedoms. But you need not do that if you don't wish. We have left it open for you to remember other things too, like birthdays, or just to say we are thinking of you. The choice is yours folks! I chose the poppy and made my calendar page with it. I Will enter this Calendar into The Craft Barns Calendar Challenge and it's challenge #9 Old paper&red lines. The paper I printed is very old. As a child I used to drew on this paper so it's over 20 yrs old lol I hope it's old enough for this challenge. I got this paper when I was in Hungary in August and my parents still got few lol I chose the poppy and made my calendar page with it. The paper is digi and it's from TLC Creations just changed the colour.

My next one is the Paper Cupcakes Challenge where we got a freebie for you and you need to use half circle+ brown, orange&blue colours. Here is my offering

The papers are digi but forgot where from as I printed it off weeks ago, the WA is by me and flowers from stash. I think this image is gorgeous so grab it while you can.

I've got one more to share and it's an other calendar page for The Craft Barn's Calendar challenge #8 where the theme is Dark colour&circles(I used a cup with white paint to do the circles) and it's my CDAC PC as well, unfortunately I just had time for this one, and I do have 2 more image but it's got to be posted out of this challenge time when it's ready.

This calendar is my TioT DT work as well and the theme is Wish you were here.

I used 3 images out of 5 we were given to play with. The aeroplane is by Ellephantastic, the bear by Designed 2 Delight and the shack is by Ginger Loft and the theme is Winter wonderland

That's all for now, thanks popping by

What do you do with your old curtain?

2011-10-25T18:40:00.000+01:00

Well I recycled it. On TioT we got a challenge for you. Unfortunately I haven't got a sewing machine boo-hoo so had to do something else. I was under my star and tiding up when I came across with an old curtain what Alfie riped abt 2 yrs ago lol for some reason I never through it away. It came handy. So the challenge for you is alter with material. I'm sure you all have some bits of material what's waiting to be used. So her it is what I made. Here is the link for the tutorial.

I made these for a swap so I just had to use them for this challenge. I still have to make 4 of them maybe 5 I coloured mine with pro-markers and used glitter glue for the edges to decorate them. For the middle I punched a flower and used one from my stash and all held together with a brad.

I've got a card as well to share with you. It's my Paper Cupcakes DT card and the theme is Black&Pink this was so much fun to make. The pink base is from stash and the black and white paper is a freebie from Summertime Design and the WA is from TLC Creations

Round the edge I used my MS punch and the bunch of flowers been cut out with a Marianne die, ribbon from stash which is wonky on the pick but originally it isn't lol and I wasn't drunk ok

My paper for this card is a Bearly Mine freebie from long time ago but if you go to the blog you find some new freebies.I wanted to play along with Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #114 and I used the sketch for my card.

and my card
I have to say those papers work so well with this fab image.

The "BOO" was made by me

I'm so angry with myself 'cos last LIM I messed it up. When I went turned PC of I realised I shouldn't have done the sky as the basic rule for a LIM card is WHITE space. Chrissie I do know the rules but don't know why I over done my card lol

Well anyway this week they got a FUN FUN FUN challenge. I clicked on the link what's on LIM and this is what came up

You are made of:Attractiveness, Playfulness and Superiority

3 parts Attractiveness

2 parts Playfulness

1 part Superiority

And a Splash of Talent

Serve over ice

So you got to make a Cocktail card. I choose a TLC image and I made the WA myself

I'll see you in the morning to show you a long project

Go green and few more

2011-10-04T11:56:00.002+01:00

WOW this last week gone so fast, I wonder if it's anything to do with the Sun lol I was definitely not in crafting mood. We spent the hole weekend down the beach, yesterday took us a bit of time to pull the house together as we just got up and left for the beach both days and by the time we got back we had no energy to hover or tide little things away lol I have to show you few pic from the weekend hope you don't mind it but we had such a fun. I have to say the 1st time we spent a hole weekend down the beach since we moved to sea side in 2008 March, I think it's a bit easier as kids are getting bigger and they brill walkers (we haven't got a car) our daughter who's gonna be 3 next month can walk abt 8 miles, we were gob smacked when we checked the distance we walked abt 2-3 weeks ago and she walked most of it, maybe sat on daddy's shoulder for 30 min then she was up and running again lol

Well anyway here is few pick from this weekend

My little ladybug girl, Mesi loves lady bugs that's why the ladybug frame lol she decided doesn't need swimming dress, I bet she wont do that in 10 yrs time lol

Daddy having fun, the thing is I thought it's the kids supposed to build things on the beach lol Adrian did have fun that's for sure

Daddy decided it's good fun to cover Alfie up and give him boobs and nunu(that's how we call it in our house lol) lol then it was daddy's turn

As it was 1st of October on Saturday and dogs allowed on the beach we took Ficko with us both days, he was having fun as well but we had to drag him into the water as he scared of it lol by 2nd day he did go in by himself but not to fare lol

The moment you got to enjoy and you wonder why can't they play so nicely at home lol

I took this one as we walked down the beach, the tie was out. The kids and me we walked on the little ledge on the right of this pick within 10 min the right side was gone, that's how fast the tie is. People tend to underestimate the power of tie

I took this pic when we were walking on that little ledge

Here the tie is up, look at the pool above and look at it now where it is. I was shocked how much the water goes out.

Take a breath that's all lol now onto my cards. I've got 3 to share with you but I promise I'll be sweet and short lol

This week at PC we asked you to go green, you can recycle or use green/neutral colours on yr project. I done both. Few month back I made a box out of book and I kept the cut out pages, I sprayed some Stick&Spray from Crafters Companion and stuck it onto a scrap A4 paper then printed a TLC Creations digi onto it. The paper is TLC Creations too and it's from this month club. For this card I used Bunny Zoe's challenge blog sketch so I'm gonna enter it into the challenge.

Inside of my card is from TLC Creations too and again from this month club. Inside as well as on the topper I used a 6x6 paper from my stash and used my MS punch round it, goes so well with the theme.

My last 2 cards is for TioT where we given you the theme: Minimal. After our busy weekend I was grateful for this theme as it took only minutes to make. I used WFC images on both of my cards and the WA was done by me. My TioT cards gonna be entered into 2 challenges. The pink will be entered into Pairie Fairy where the theme is Pink and Distressed. The other one will be entered into Less is more where the theme is The colour of your eyes, well mine is brown&green and it deepens on the lighting lol

I'm gonna enter my pink card into Sassy Cheryl's Challenge to as the theme is think pink and no longer needed to use Sassy image ( I do have a lot dough)

Now I'm really finished lol thanks staying and reading this long blah-blah-blah lol

I should be in bed, I'm supposed to get up 7 to make pita bread cos we gonna go down the beach and do BBQ, might have to go to the bakers to get some fresh rolls lol

Anyway I decided to play along with CDAC Progressive Challenge and I chose the apple basket by Glitterbabe. My base is TLC Creations and everything from the new club.

Here is my card

My 2nd card is my Delicious Doodles DT card where the theme is Tales of the Unexpected

Now this is entirely open to your interpretation. My images the peacock butterfly and the Kissing Butterfly. I printed the butterflies on TLC Creations paper.

My WA was created by Marlene for me, I'm pants when it comes to sayings. I never made a card like this before, everything is hanging of the base card,

And my 3rd project is a box, it's used to be a cheese box. Over at TioT we asked you to Alter it and the theme is Childhood book. Inspired by Beatrix Potter Appley Dapply's Nursery Rhymes

Use 3 punch or die

2011-09-26T20:18:00.002+01:00

Hi all. Before I start my Paper Cupcakes DT card I have to show a pic. I took it few weeks ago but Marlene was worried what her pizza would've tasted like if she would've scooped things up from the floor, go and see her pick on her blog and let me know wich one is worth lol

Here is Alfie with Ficko. I know it's growth but when he done it we were laughing sooooooo much and Ficko really loved it lol and Mesi usually gives a bite of her bread to him then she will eat it her bread or even worth. She will go to the dog's food container and take out the dry food and eat it YUCK

Ok on to my Paper Cupcake card. This week we got a very easy challenge for you, the theme is Punches & Die Cuts, minimum 3. See I told you it's not so hard. My card got loads of die cuts. My flower is made out die cuts, my flourishes are die cuts and my digi was cut out with die cut.

My image is water coloured, my papers are from TLC Creations. I made my card shape with my Craft Artist program, then cut it out and distressed the edge.

The insert is made out of the 2 paper I used for the front and the WA is TLC Creations too.

Few pick of my flower

Make sure you got to the Challenge blog and look the rest of the DTs work, fab inspirations.

I used the Sniffing Daises image(da "Boss" used the same and mine is poop compare to hers) I never made this card shape before so I thought I give a go. You got to be careful when you score and cut but once you made few it's easy peasy lol. My papers are from TLC Creations, the buttons from stash and I made the flowers out of left over and some scrap.

On to my 2nd project and this one is my Paper Cupcake creation what should've been posted on Monday and the them is Someone Special. I chose the Penguin with Cupcake image and I made a popcorn box. I've got it's template from my Funky Fairy (shop closed down boo-hoo) and the papers from there too.

And my last one is TioT Anything goes - Louis Armstrong, Wonderful World and this should've been posted yesterday lol I just love this song, just pop over to TioT and listen to it.

I used a Delicious Doodles image called New York Silhouette and the paper is from Nicecrane Designs Enchanted Fantasy Papers and the little bits and bobs are from my stash, oh and WA by me.

I distressed my image so the white is not so white lol and below I tried to create a little moon for the night sky

Well that's it and as it's past midnight now I go and I'll do my mini album lol yeah I know I'm mad but it's for a swap and should've been posted last week and it won't be ready till next week.

Lets get the old out

2011-09-14T01:07:00.000+01:00

How many of you got stamps sitting on your shelf for years and hasn't been used, I bet loads of you. This week over at TioT the theme is: Dig out the old. My old stamp is from Craft Studio Art Deco corner. I bought the CD ROM and a sheet of stamp came with it as freebie but I never used the stamp and I probably bought it 2 yrs ago. I had this scrap of paper and I distressed it the with the same ink I stamped the corners then I coloured the flowers with almost the same shade of pro marker. The "H" & "B" been printed off and cut out then I hand wrote the rest, punched a hole and added a ribbon then to finish it off I added a small butterfly(found it on the bathroom floor lol ) and doodled some lines

Over at Paper Cupcakes this week theme is:"shaped card" anything goes, but a square or rectangle. And it's time of the month when there is a new digi up for grab.

As you can see I choose a balloon shape for my card to go with the design, the shape was printed off google. I sprayed it with Crafters Companion Spray&Shine before I added my image. My image is coloured with Shakura glitter pens and I doodled border round it., stuck it on the base and hand wrote the happy birthday and added a flower and little swirl to finish it off.

Happy 1st Birthday

2011-07-25T04:10:00.000+01:00

On CDAC TLC Creations celebrating it's 1st BD and on Paulette's blog there is a contest, well dead line is in few hrs so I better be quick.

I chose the 1st step image and my WA been googled and abt after an hr research I chose this Voltaire quote.

But before I show my card I have to show you what my 2nd cousin dine to our dog (that's teenagers for you lol)

and here is my card

Steampunk

2011-07-19T12:21:00.001+01:00

For this week over at TioT I choose "Steampunk" Sorry teamies if I gave you grief with this. I did give grief for myself as well lol I printed a wicked image off from Delicious Doodles then I messed the colouring up boo-hoo so I had to re-think and printed an other DD image called Love's Faded Memory I have changed it's colour with my Craft Artist program and coloured the rose with Shakura glitter pens. The steampunk paper is DD as well and it's just been realised last week. On the head I have used the corner what a new realise by DD. I used few brads too. Simple design but my 2nd cousin loved it it's her Name Day today. She's here with us for the summer to learn English and in Hungary we celebrate name days too.

Let me know what you think of my try with "Stempunk"

This one is sooooo wicked, took me ages to cut it out well abt 20 min but I love the result. This bit is coming from the DD corner image "Stempunk corner"

This is the corner cut out. It took me a bit of time but I love it how it turned out. I haven't got any of this type of dies. Once I finished I sprayed it with silver glitter spray from Crafters Companion. The glitter shows really well.

Here is the side view. I just had to 3D it.

Inside I made the backing paper lighter and put a frame on it.

I've got one more card to show you. To be honest I don't like it. It was PC Freebie Challenge with a sketch. I was struggling with the sketch. Maybe just my image is too big and that's why I don't like it. The image is called Thank you Orson.

Here is the sketch,

I think it's fab sketch just I didn't get on with it lol

I do love this image really sweet. I cut the top words out so the back shows a bit more.

Bird-day

2011-07-14T10:06:00.000+01:00

At Paper Cupcakes is Birthday time. I have choose this gorgeous image called: Cadee with Sunflower. My apologies that I've only got one pic, but so busy have no idea if I'm coming or going. Got few days till the 26th but won't be here for the weekend as we going to London to show my 2nd cousin some places, well so much there that we would need week or two but no time and money for that lol Well anyway here is my card.

Sorry

2011-07-11T19:40:00.000+01:00

Hiya everyone. Sorry I went MIA. My cousin's daughter is here and staying with us for the summer, trying to show her round and just not in mood for blogging and card making. I only made one card in the last 2 weeks so it is handy that Delicious Doodles having a summer break as I would feel really bad not making anything.

I feel already bad as I didn't show you my last creation for DD. But before I bore you I show you what I made, it was a fab project and don't think I would make it again lol the decoration was giving me grief lol well the last bit of it. Just one more thing, this was a 18th birthday present. So here is the "book" well it was one few weeks ago lol

This is the cover. I bought those gorgeous butterflies and the big vine and little vine is from Flourish with a Bling some fab stuff in the shop so pop over and have a look. The image in the window is DD image and I just love her. I made the BD card and a book mark with it too what you can see in my previous posts.

This image is WFC and I made the matching sentiment.

The clasp or whatever that thing keeps my box closed lol is made out of FP (friendly plastic) too and simple elastic band (left my pretty silver bend home so had to improvise lol )

This is the fool inside and just realised forgot to take a pic of the drew, silly me, but there is a small draw too. I used my big corner stamp and few FP flower. I didn't over decorate inside as I thought the front is more than enough.

Here is the spine of the book again with FP and few more little bits of FP on the cover.

Just incase you wonder what's inside the box. I made this with Friendly Plastic (FP) It was my 1st ones I made out of FP and I was heart broken to give it away. This bracelet look soooooooooo good on the wrist.

Close up of the medallion.

I got the friendly plastic from Rare Bird and I loved playing with it.

Few more things before I go. Delicious Doodles having a summer break till end of August and we have a DT CALL so if you like to join our team pop over to the blog and put your name down. It's a very easy going team if I may say.

Thanx popping by

Let's travel and Alter

2011-06-28T21:28:00.000+01:00

This week at Paper Cupcakes I set the challenge and I asked my teamies to make something with 20's-30's. I love those years I remember making a dress for myself looking like the 20's ladies dress lol

I used my Glitter Girls art deco board and the fab Mr Twitter, I just thought he looks like the 20's-30's guys lol

Here is my card

My second is a altered choc box. I made this to go with mt last few post. This box already been given to the birthday girl. I used one of my old stamp and painted the box with acrylic first then I stamped my image with stayz-on then I stamped with big&juicy and let it dry over night. I stamped my WA put ribbon through and box was done. If you like to see the rest of the TioT teams box pop over to the challenge blog and have a look, they are fab boxes.

This is my choc box and the choc was soooooooooo yummy I LOVE dark choc and to top it, it had feeling inside it too, not even sex can top this up lol

and here is my altered choc box but the birthday card and bookmark inside it not chock.

Simple WA what I stamped and went through the script embossing folder

Somethin cute or cuddly

2011-06-24T17:32:00.001+01:00

Friday which means Delicious Doodles Challenge. Is butterfly counts towards cute lol def not cuddly though. To be honest I had to make this 18th BD card and I had 2 choice, use the Butterfly fairy what I used on my bookmark last week and using with other things what you gonna see next week or not making anything. I decided I rather make my card but might not as cute as should be. I decided to make a tent card and this will be my 1st attempt. I had to make it a bit differently from the tutorial I've seen cos I already got my box for the card and it's a specific size, so had the button before I've go the coat lol

Anyway you'll be the judge if it's cute or not.

I couldn't post this post or rather shedule it last nigh cos after 20 pic still wasn't good enough to blog it so had to wait till I got home from shop and hairdresser, dog walking to take new pick. I kept the side view from last night though. I was playing with the settings and I like this one lol after all the camera is my toy too and was having fun taking pics, none was good enough to post though lol

Last minute I messed her face up but it's been already glued on and can't take it off and no time to redo it again.

Sorry it's a short post as I still got loads to do before the whole set is ready. Present is ready but now I'm making the box. I need to decorate it now. Been coloured but still not 100% happy with it so need those vital decoration as the colouring is just a base. Come back next Friday to find out how the box looks like, tell you it was hard to get the base ready. OK I can tell you this much it's a jewellery box.

Off to do my box now. My FP (friendly plastic order had a bit of hick up so one colour is missing but I think I can do without it, just got to improvise right lol

Oh I bought few fab butterfly anda peacokfeathre for my box, I think it's gonna look FAB well I hope it will

Late post

2011-06-23T12:20:00.001+01:00

Sorry guys I'm late but been soooo busy making that 18th birthday present that I hardly been on-line. I even mixed up my TioT challenge so have nothing to show you this week.

But do have my Paper Cupcakes DT card. For this week we got an inspirational pic for you

This greenish, blueish & brown selection of bottles reminded me of the sea so I have used the last week freebie the Beach Bear, the bottom layer paper is from TLC Creation's and so is the WA. I have created my background using TH distress inks and some of my cloud stamp what I use a lot. They do come handy for my clouds and handy to create the sand too. I have masked the bear and made a mask for the Sun as well. I made him white so he can catch the Sun, just let's hope he's not gonna fry himself lol

Ah I'm gonna cheat. Just realised this week theme for TioT goes well with this card so I'm gonna use this card. The theme over at TioT is Here comes the Sun set by Janet. So after all I do have a card yeeeepppppyyyyyy

Here is my card opened up. It's a easel card. I really like the sentiment what was in Paulette's last club. The images in the water are TLC creations as well.

Thanks coming by

An other LIM card

2011-06-17T21:54:00.001+01:00

Well I got the hang of it now lol Really like this LIM Challenge blog I used D2D image and it's their weekly free image challenge (oops missed out on this one lol), and TLC |Creations WA. I coloured my image with Shakura glitter pens. Probably the first time the glitter show on the pic. The framae is hand drawn.

Here is the pic

Flying by .....

2011-06-17T15:13:00.001+01:00

Just no idea where the weeks flying by lol Seems like I blink two and a week passed without anything important happening now that's not true cos I do make cards and that is important isn't it ?!

Now we on challenge #30 at Delicious Doodles and the them is Things that flutter. I think most ppl would associate this with butterflies but I used the new image Lovey-Dovey Shilouette. I've got a pigeon couple in my back garden and last year we had to experience a horrible sight, their baby was taken away by goshawk. We just seen this big whooping bird coming down and picked the baby pigeon up and next second he was gone. I hope this yr baby pigeon will survive.

Oops I'm gobby again lol well here is my card. Yes I know it's very simple, it's the LIM girls fault. I entered their challenge last night the 1st time and I just loved it, so here is an other one. I think those doves look fab with nothing powering them over. I hope "Boss" you don't mind a simple card but it is true "Less is More"

at LIM is frame it and one layer week what I found difficult at my 1st go but now got the hang of it. I think this will be a challenge what I'll visit as much as I can. My card is simple but still tried to put a bit of colour in but making sure got loads of white space too. The edge is cut with wave cutter and the bottom of the card slightly longer and distressed. I distressed the top&bottom of the card too but just very lightly. I draw a hand free frame round the Doves and the WA is by me.

Butterfly and few more cards

2011-06-16T21:17:00.000+01:00

I've got few things to share with you today. First I'm gonna show you my TioT DT tag and the theme is Butterfly. I used Delicious Doodles image and TLC creations papers and WA, few bit of wool. I love these fluffy wools. I had this bit of off cut paper strip what I put through my Fiscars feathers texture plate then sand it down to give it a bit more deffinition.

I made abt 10 pic if not more to get the colour of the wings. Above you can't really see the colour of it. I was very happy with the finished result.

Oh I almost forgot. I chose this sentiment cos this is gonna be part of an 18 yrs old girl birthday present. It is a tag but big enough to use as a bookmark.

My second card is a very simple one, made this for Less is More Challenge. Simple ok but ONE LAYER MEEEEEEEEEEEEE now that was a challenge cos I LOVE decoupage my images to much or just 3D it with my gel glue lol I didn't this time. The sponsor is Arielle from WFC and I used her image for this entry. I'm big fan of Arielle's images. The sentiment I seen somewhere, sorry can't remember cos I travel on blogland a lot and google sentiments a lot too.

I have to eaggry with the fact Less is More and WFC images not need much dressing although I was tempted to use an other layer too lol I must say I do love how it turned out.

My 3rd card is for Pollycraft DT call. I used one of the free image what was given to work with. I kept my card simple but not so simple, I just wanted my image being seen and not over powered if you know what I mean. I sewed beads round it to frame my image. I never done this before but I kind of like it. The WA was done by me. Just love my Craft Artist program cos I can do my own WAs/sentiments. Takes time but I enjoy it.

Here is the inside of my card. I had this in my stash waiting to be used up and the colour orange/red goes well with the front. On the pic is a bit paler then it is in real.

And my last card to show you is A day for Daises where the theme is: a new technique. The other day when I was crousing on blogland and I've seen how to emboss only just part of your card and I just loved it so I had to try to. But that's not the only new thing on this card. My part die cut is new and I never paper pieced with textured paper, so few new thing on this card. Again a simple card, the WA was made by me.

I have to figure out how can I convert my Craft Artist generated sentiments into jpeg so then I can put it up as freebies.

Well I hope you liked today's selection and hopefully it wasn't to boring lol

My little house

2011-06-13T11:00:00.002+01:00

WOW I can not believe it's already Monday. The weekend gone so quick. So it it's Monday which means it's Paper Cupcakes Challenge. Today we got a free image for you so go and grab it and join us in the fun. We got a recipe for you to fallow, very simple one: Pick two of these elements: Flowers, Ribbons, Pearls/Gem and/or die cut and use them on your project in any way. Oops I didn't realise die cut is in the list and I used it inside my card. I had to cover the mistake up lol

I printed everything onto a card stock and coloured my image with my beloved water colour pencils. Popped to the haberdashery to get some pretty ribbons to go with it. I had the gems in my stash which is perfect for this image. I kept my card very simple but I could not resist a bit of dimension so I printed the roof off and stuck it on with gel glue. When I printed off my image I turned my card and printed the sentiment too, the sentiment was made by Nina. Now if you look my sentiment to much on the right that's why had to use something to cover up the space, no waisting eh lol

Here are the pictures.

I have to say I never printed onto card and paint it strait away but I do love it how it turned out. I think you have to have the perfect image to do this and this fab little house is just the right one.

See why I had to use die cut, just had to cover the empty space up lol

Oh almost forgot I embossed the roof in my polka dot folder before sticking it into it's place.

One for Daddy

2011-06-10T21:30:00.001+01:00

Yesterday I put my little bear card out to dry and my OH found it, it's his Father's day card, oh well I told him I won't make card for him but here is an other one what I made for him last week.

Over at Delicious Doodles Father's Day is here. Cheers "Boss" drawing this High Speed train , just love it. I think it's looks fab when you don't colour the image just a small part of it, what's layered on a card and then put over onto the matching bit with foam pad or gel glue. The background paper is from TLC Creations (link on my side bar) and the tag is from our sponsor Craft 4 Eternity. For inside I use the same paper, the backing paper is awesome.

The shape of my topper just fallows the shape of the train and the little curl underneath works fab.

When I've seen this bracket journey cards I fell in love with them. The sentiment on it was made by me.

I had to go down to my local haberdashery to get the red train buttons. I thought had them but I think used them last yr lol

Eeeek I almost forgot to enter my card for the Fassy&Fancy Friday challenge blog's DT call. I though I give a go.

The bear-y best dad

2011-06-10T01:41:00.001+01:00

and my inspirational picture is the bear with behive

And here is my card

The fence is the background but I did cut out the pots too to decorate the middle

Isn't he sweet?

You can see I coloured them with glitter pen and they are on shrink plastic. I managed to smudge it with by jumper sleeve when I was colouring, me and my blooming left hand, I forgot if I water colour the shrink plastic it wont dry till I shrink it and being left heanded I should've worked from right to left but silly me I didn't so bears face messed up, I'm sure my OH won't spot it lol

And here is the side view

Oh yes before I forget, I made the sentiment myself

Weired but wonderful

2011-06-07T16:04:00.000+01:00

Now there is a challenge for you. Weired but wonderful over at TioT. The thing is I had no idea what to do. Recently I've seen this technique where they just use a splash of colour on the image, I did thinks it's weired but loved it so that's why I chose this technique (did read the name but forgot and I'm not even 40 lol )

My image for this card from "A Day for Daisies" and the lady called Purple Lady so that's why my card is purple, well there is an other reason too but tell you abt it in a min. My paper is from TLC Creations and it's in the shades of purple even what you see it's blue it's dark purple.

I'm gonna enter my card into the "A Day For Daisies" where the theme is WHITE+BLACK+ONE OTHER COLOR [YOUR CHOICE!]

That's why the purple colour. I tried so many places to take a pick but still the dark purple turns out blue on the pic, well you know the picture does not do justice lol

My late DD DT card, my Paper Cupcakes DT card and played along with Sassy Cheryl's Challenges

2011-06-06T21:28:00.001+01:00

Oh boy I'm such an idiot. I mixed up my challenges and for DD I made next weeks one, so quickly I made one as I had my image coloured up and it was only waiting to be used. Well I thought quickly I make was but in reality it took me over 3 days. I was blank. My bits weren't coming together till today afternoon when I found a bit of pink bubble wrapping lol with that took me 5 min to put my card together and before I spent hrs with no luck wired or what.

Anyway this weeks challenge at DD is texture. There are loads of things round you you can use (do check your recycling bin lol ) I have used Apple Blossom and it's 3D-ed too. I had a book page for ages I messed up cos it turned out way to dark but kept it and it did came handy lol My swirl is flower soft what I haven't used for donkey's yrs.

My Paper Cupcake DT project is a bookmark. The theme is masculine this week. The WA is TLC Creations. I just love this little froggie

My Sassy Cheryl's project is a tag what I want to enter to the challenge as well as to the colour me in. I paper pieced it with TLC Creation's paperers.

Lets make Easel card

2011-05-30T14:49:00.001+01:00

Over at Paper Cupcakes our challenge to you is a easel card, an other easy challenge. I'm sure you all made one or two easel card but if not pop over to the challenge blog and see the rest of the team's projects.

This time I made a card and an ATC easel. I really had fun to make the little ATC. I have to send it off for a swap and the theme is Emerald and thought Sabrina on branch just perfect to be green.

Here is my card and my ATC

My paper on my card are TLC Creations Childhood fantasy papers. The idea from this card came from Mel Stampz, there are soooooooooo much inspiration on Mel's blog and loads of freebies too. The sentiment is from her blog too and it's Elizabeth T Dillingham "A faery song" you can find it hear

For the bottom of my easel I used one of my Marianne die but as a stencil rather then a die cut. Oh and the wing is mirror printed so it looks pretty from the back too

On my ATC I stamped some leaf with water resist ink on glossy card then inked it up, I cut out a trunk frtom scrap paper and drew few branches before I added Sabrina on Branch. Bottom of my easel ATC I made some grass bit of ribbon and a dragonfly on the top to finish it off.

I did it again lol

2011-05-29T22:27:00.000+01:00

I forgot to post my Delicious Doodles DT card and had no time to log on yesterday and today till put kids to bed, but managed to sort stuff out in the loft, cos wanna get rid of all the baby stuff ( 2 kids is enough lol ) not much baby cloth left but still got the cot, baby walker, sterilizer, high chair, baby safety gate and few other little things. I hope I can sell them although OH wants to give it to charity, I told him we got one income and need to buy a little futon as we gonna have a guest for 7 weeks over the summer so we can put this money towards that, he is not pleased abt it but told me do whatever you want, so I'm selling them lol if I get £50 we can get the futon on that or just got to top it up maybe £10-20

Well anyway this week the at Delicious Doodles is Lovely Lace. In April my friend's sis got married and I promised my friend I make a card for her. I have used the Doves&Heart. I cut off the leaf from the dove's mouth and put the couples initials into it, into the hear I put a WA made by me and put the couples name in it to hang it from the cup of the triangle exploding box's (phew that was hard to write it down lol), the paper came from Hungary what I bought yrs ago and thought it's perfect for this project. The verse inside was googled. I have quiet few pic to show you after all it's an exploding box lol

I started to figure out how to do my own WA and I think with the little heart in the background this one looks fab (well I like it lol )

The stamp I've got it from a stamp swap and if I'm not mistaken it's Whiff of Joy stamp but not sure as it wasn't on the back when I got it. If it's not Whiff of Joy let me know please.

For the top cap I used this embossed mirri board and it's gorgeous, the butterfly mirri came from my neighbour who gave up crafting. I found in my stash these roses what I glued on with gel glue.

And her eit is cap off.

and 2nd cap off

The little Dove is sitting on a acetate and the glue bit is covered with this velum rose what I made

Oh and this is a butterfly embossed too, I was very please with the ned result and I know the cople liked it too.

Oh before I forget, I made the template myself

Scrapling

2011-05-24T11:37:00.000+01:00

Now you must be wondering what an earth is that. I was wondering too but if you wanna see more scrapling pop over TioT as it's our challenge for this week.

Now a scrapling is what you get from making a square card from an A4 card, I have loads of those so it was no problem to make one. I used scrap paper as well. The WA made by me and the butterfly and corner are spellbinders made with scrap paper too.

I think this card will fitt well with the EIC where the inspirational Etsy shop is Paula Art who using scrap to turn it into gorgeous art. I could use many of her art as inspiration but I chose this one made with jigsaw, wire and other scrap. Just love it.

I was so pleased with myself that I'm back on track with my blog and DT card and here comes the Internet provider and bang goes my organised crafting life lol

Ok have stoped talking lol

My 1st card is my Paper Cupcakes set. I have made a card, ATC and a book mark. The image is the free Peony image, one of my fav flower. The theme is embossing, to be honest I forgot abt that bit but my die cuts are all embossed. The WA on my card is by TLC Creations

Unfortunately you can't see on the pick but my corner die cuts are embossed and below is the inside of my card. The inside panel is by Nicecrane Designs

My ATC, the little corner bits are the leftover of a die cut and just keep them in a little pot and they fit here perfectly.

Front and my back of my bookmark. The sentiment was googled.

My second DT card is my TioT card and the them is 70's, what fun was making this card. I have used WFC digi image the WA is made by me. My papers are from TLC Creations. I have used the 3 different tie in the same card and framed it so shacking hand does not mater lol

I have used the Bubble border here and the WA is made my Marlene for this image (thanks again Hun) It's a very simple scrapbook page used my new ES punch set a Sun embellishment and a duck button (chopped the back off)

I have to start to do Mesi's 1st year scrapbook too. I done Alfie's yrs ago but for some reason not getting round to do Mesi's. Maybe if I choose the pick I wanna use that might helps to start it lol

Oh yeah I forgot, she gave me some ribbons too.

Aren't those buttons just fab

Over at TioT it's tags week and we were asked by Janet to make a tag for the boys. I have used the free stamp from the last month Craft Stamper's. I think it's a brill little set. I done a bit of masking bit of splashing (I need to practice that a bit more lol ) and a bit of decoupage and the tag was ready, well not quiet. when I finished it and I pulled my mask some left on my tag and it was kind of ruined, so I could not post it in time as I was gonna make a new one, then once I was back from dropping Alfie off at nursery and had Mesi's hear cut (my friend done it as she is a hear dresser) I set down and just spritzed a bit of paper with the bronze cosmic shimmer but only gentle and stamped the air balloon on it then cut it out and 3D it onto my tag and mistake was fixed, now got 5 min time to post it and show you

I took the pick with flash so you can see the shiny bits well

A DT card from me

2011-05-08T14:09:00.000+01:00

I've got a simple DT card to show you. It's Create With TLC's Be the cow set. I was playing with my Craft Artist and clicking on different effects, I just loved the negative effect on the cow and I kept it, dressing it with one of Paulette's frame. I didn't over complicated the card cos I wanted to showcase the image. Let me know what you think of it. My cow digi turned out like an old picture negative, I love it lol

Well here it my card

The only colour is my ribbon and a touch of TH distress ink

I'm gonna enter this card into the EIC and the inspirational shop this week is Bear Creek Design and here is my inspirational pic, is he a gorgeous cow and looks like it's already been sold

Happy Sunday

'Fantasy and Mythical Beasties' at Delicious Doodles

2011-05-06T21:44:00.003+01:00

Good day my dear friends, can you believe it's weekend, well not because it matters to me as I'm SAHM lol but means I don't have to get kids ready for nursery and I pot around in the mornings lol

With further ado here is my creation for this week challenge

I have used Call of the Wind image form Delicious Doodles. I merged it with the paper and added some digi embellishment on it too then I cut it and wrapped it round the tin, the paper wasn't long enough so got my Spellbinders circles embossing folders and embossed a gold paper what I brushed with a bit of blak ink and used it as under layer. The top paper been stuck and held together with read wire finished of with a bow and butterfly charm.

Here you can see my digi embellishment

I'm gonna enter this into the Top Tip Tuesday what I just found (through one of our player from last week thanks Leanne ) where is the theme Open Challenge and into EIC and my inspiration is this pic bellow from Imagine Studio, the art in the Studio goes sooooooooo well with this challenge it was hard to pick.

Top Tip from me: When you cut your paper and you left with those really thin strips what usually you bin DON'T put few together and put a knot on it(picture below), then you can cut it to size or just tear it and you can use it as embellishment

More than one fold

2011-04-25T10:53:00.001+01:00

Morning my crafty friends

WOW how quick is the week gone. It's an other Paper Cupcakes challenge and you have to use more than one fold, this is easy-peasy, so go on show us what's comes into your mind when it comes to more than one fold. There are ideas on my blog and in my sample for this challenge. When it's more then a fold think out side of the box as well so I made a box/basket lol that is more then one fold to be presize 12 (4 for the bottom, 4 for the sides and 4 for the flaps) I can think of something else what can be more then 12 fold and it a exploding box with 3 layers(that is 12 fold) PLUS the top what is an other 12 fold (bottom, sides and flaps lol )

Oh nooooooo I'm talking to much again sorry lol well if you here and reading my post I guess you used to it by now lol

Ok here are my pics for this challenge. These baskets are the girls Easter egg hunting basket made out of an A4 card stock

I have used Sunny Stroll and Summer Waddle my little girl chose the chick. The WA and the paper is form Create with TLC (link in my side bar on the top) Can you see the peaking head on the other side of the box? I used my High Hopes rubber stamp and on the other side I drew the face round and gave him/her eyes and mouth, not best of drawing but it did the job lol Below you can see the back of the box

Top and below the boxes on them own

Close up of the digi images

I'm gonna enter these boxes into High Hopes challenge where the theme is Bunnies, bears, balloons

Have a nice week and thanks popping by

I'm sooooooooooooooo late with this

2011-04-24T22:56:00.000+01:00

I don't know if I'm coming or going with kids being on Easter holiday. Only 2 more days and they back to nursery, I can not believe 3 weeks is already gone out of 3&1/2. We had so much fun time just passed, ok we had/got the most glorious weather for this time of the year. Yesterday my kids and my friend's 2 yrs old were playing with glitter , you should've seen the two little girls, covered in it, oh maybe I should mention the girls were but naked, then we had music on and my friend's daughter started to shake it, I was rolling she was hilarious. We were having BBQ but before we set down to eat I had to shower the girls, my friend's daughter little private bit was covered in it even after shower lol Kids and me we had oodles and doodles of fun, we played playdoug, baked, went for swimming in a wave pool, we went down the beach, went for hiking and I have to say I'm very proud of Alfie and Mesi especially my 2 yr old daughter who walked/run 2&1/2 hrs, then last wknd our dog run away and 2 days later he was returned. We went to see one of my forum friend who's 2 little ones almost the same age as mines, gosh we always were doing something I hardly had time to craft or by evening I was so tired had no energy to craft.

Anyway I stop yapping lol
Over at DD it's anything goes. I was gonna use one of the new digi's I've got it printed out but had no time to turn it into card, but I will so just watch the space lol
So I used the Easter bunny with the egg. I promised my friend for today's egg hunt I'll do little baskets for them and I show you the boys today (you'll see the girls tomorrow lol ) just had to use these baskets for my DT work as time just flew away.
I also used one of my High Hopes image for the back and used Create with TLC WAs and paper (link in my side bar), the handle is MS punch.

If you look at the back of the box there is a little bunny head popping out, I've got this sweet back of bunny and I wanted to use him but needed a face for it so I put my paper against the window and copied the head and whiskers and I done the rest (sorry not the best but better then nothing)

And here is the back of the box and you can see the bunny who was desperate for a face on the other side lol I just needed him to look into the box lol

Here is the handle, I think this leaf punch is really pretty.

And the DD bunies close up.

I'm gonna enter this Easter box into the Hight Hopes challenge where the theme is Bunnies, Bears, and Balloons

Over at Paper Cupcake it was my turn to pick the theme and as it's spring I want to see loads of bright cards using Orange, Green&Yellow. I used this beautifully free digi and it goes perfectly well with my colour combo

Here is my card

My second card is for TioT. This week is anything goes but you must up-cycle this is the posh word for recycle lol I made a card using Sassy Cheryl's 2 new images whats the images for the Colour me in challenges.

You must be wondering what's recycled in my card. My flowers been crochet with recycled yarn (my mum pulled apart a jumper what's not been used) the flower middle I took it off from a shirt and the button is from a shirt too. I found a weird shirt what was covered in buttons and gems and took me ages to take those buttons and gems off lol

Cheryl I hope you don't mind I flipped the image to look better on the card, they look so sweet together

Oh yeah almost forgot my WA is Create with TLC what else, link on my sidebar

I have a D2D challenge card to show you and my 2nd project is a Nana Vic on CDAC she gave a freebie to create with and I made a picture/wall hanger.

Here is my D2D card and it's the freebie image what you get if you play along every week. I used my friend's embossing/die cutting frame a TLC Creations WA and Bearly Mine freebie paper. I will enter this card into Bearly Mine challenge too where the theme is :inside out, you got to decorate your card inside as well as outside and I thought this card is perfect for this challenge.

I'm gonna enter this card into the EICand the shop the inspiration came from is: Think Fast Design and here is my chosen inspirational pick

I love images with cupcake and I def would love to have this bag lol

Inside of my card

My 2nd project the "Life of tree" from Nana Vic which was a freebie for a week on CDAC and I made it into a picture. The background is from MCS CD and the sentiment in the CDAC group Elenor found them and I thought they fit this beautiful image perfectly now I just got to find or make a nice picture frame but that's gonna be an other project lol Oh I printed my pic on canvas paper and OMGosh it was delight to work with, my 1st time and I'm kicking myself in the back I Was to lazy to go back to Aldi when they had it for £3.50 or £4.50 for 20 even £4.50 is brill price
