I have decided

Few weeks ago I have won $100 worth off High Hopes stamps. They have arrived and I wanna use them. Lately I don't do much fun cards for challenges and being a huge fan of High Hopes from now on I will do their challenges again.  I used to do it but since I'm in few DT's I stopped. I think I got to do some cards what not my DT work although I love doing them I still feel I'm being left out lol

I have to make a swap card with loads of read in it so I thought the Valentine theme is perfect for it. The stamp is High Hopes but don't know the name got to check it out. The reason I don't know because Bethany through this beauty in for me.

So here is my card

I used some little High Hopes stamp (heart&bon-bon) to make background. I stamped them then embossed it. I had the little tags and I had this Creative Images stamp and just stamped on my little tag. Heat pin with beads and big flower to finish it off. Oh the flower ribbon is my MS punch and it's vellum but I put printig paper behind it to be able to see the reall colour.

I have been using my water colour pencils. My local Hobby Craft stopped selling my Derwent watercolour pencils individually, I've got more than half of them and now don't know where to go to buy the rest. I used some stuff from my stash too and the papers are from..............

And few more close ups too

I enter this card into the fallowing challenges

High Hopes: #102 Valentine

Bunny Zoe's:Spring loads of flowers.

Baby Bud family got two more members

That's right today over at Baby Bud Designs we have two brand new beauties for you. There name is Oliver and Bouquet. They are really really cute. Let me show you them

They really cute aren't they? And below my whole card. I just learnt this double twisted easel card. You can find the tutorial on my friend's blog here I love it so much I already made an other one what will post tomorrow ;-)

I have to say I love digital papers or my CDs, so much cheaper then buying the paper packs well I can't buy everything, hmmmmmm now that's makes me thing maybe I'm with the wrong person or maybe I should get a job lol well we not a millioners but we are a happy family and that's what important. Oops talking to much lol So I love digi papers/stamps, my paper is from Bearly Mine: Shabby Vintage the shape is form Funky Fairy (closed down)  but it is elongated and my WA is TLC Creations oh and my flower is Fried She Said freebie. The card looks difficult but if you see Wendy's tutorial then you see it's easy peasy.

Just the side view

I thought you might like to see the WA I've used. Oh Oliver holds a heart but had this sweet smiling digi heart from TLC Creations and I just had to use it, I hope Mary Anne you don't mind it.

I made this card to my friend as a thank you card as she took me out for my birthday last weekend.

I'm gonna enter this card to

Sky's the limit and Show me #11

I keep forgetting to post my TIOT DT card. I have to say this was a challenge to make especially I wasn't to well, I was just coughing and coughing and coughing so I wasn't really in my creative side, but thanks God it is not so bad now and I'm on the roll lol

Anyway here is my offering

No stamping involved. I used My Craft Studio Klever Konstruction: On the shelf CD and everything from that CD. The thing is I just don't use my CD's as much as I would love to since I got into digi's, so that's why I decided to make this and not to use my stamps lol

I have tried to use images what I would find in the sky. My fav one is the bee. Oh I do have butterfly stickers too. Tried to make it look like some is close to you and the others fare away but I'm sure you figured this out too lol

 Here is the side view. Here you can see the butterfly stickers better. I used 3 stickers (same ones) to make 3D butterflies

Over at Sassy Cheryl's it's Show me #11 which means Cheryl wanna see whats on yr desk, well I'm not in my craft room at mo but in our dining room and only few things front of me as I try to finish off a card and wanna cut out the stamps (they just arrived, my High Hopes Blog-Hop winning, I even got few little extra as well ;-) )

so here is the pick

Spellbinder nestie

Flower stamp form Craft Stamper magazine

Water Colour pencils

Ribbon from stash

Gems from stash

Verse is from the net

Sentiment from TLC Creations

Tim Holtz distress inks

Cosmic Shimmer

 I printed the paper on a good card stock ( I cheated left a bit of rim rather then do the matting and layering lol ) then I cut and coloured my pendant with TH distress ink and Ancient Copper Cosmic Shimmer. I have cut it in half so I was able to place it on the top and bottom of my image. Oh yeah the image was cut out with my nesti and used the technique what I learned few weeks ago. On the side I cut out the 4 arrows and coloured the same way as the pendant. I threaded through my ribbon on the bottom and fixed it with bred and to finish it off made a rose from the same paper and distressed it with TH ink and added few gems too.

Here you go a close up on my image

 And this is the inside with the poem
