Anything goes with the option of letter P


Hiya!

I am back today with a challenge from the My Besties UK Challenge Blog, and that is 'Anything goes with  the letter 'P'. we have some fab digis as prizes and a special priced digi available to purchase, the rules are up to 3 entries with a Bestie Image and one without so you can enter up to 4 times ....

This is my design team card for the challenge, I loved this image she is so cute and can be purchased at the store Etsy
So for this challenge I used the fab DPs from Kaisercraft collection 'Little Primrose'. These went perfect with my choice of digi- a bestie in a teacup! this is totally me as i LOVE LOVE LOVE tea. The 'Little Primrose' paper is all teacups and teapots and I thought this went so well and the vintage colours are divine. 
I coloured my bestie with Copics an the die is from La La Land Crafts. I used some glitter glue on her tea itself and the flowers are a mix of WOC and Prima.   The sentiment reads 'Time for tea' and is also from La La Land Crafts
Now for the option of the letter 'P'. I liked this image for another reason, it has a 'P' on the label so theres one and I added a little letter 'P' charm to it. I finished off with some lace and pink poker dot ribbon from my stash and some rhinestones on pale green and lavender. 
Hope you like my cards!

Now we have some fab digis as prizes and a special priced digi available to purchase, the rules are up to 3 entries with a Bestie Image and one without so you can enter up to 4 times .This is my design team card for the challenge, I loved this image she is so cute and can be purchased at the store Etsy

I am also entering this card in the following challenges-

Now i dont know about you but I am trying to get my Christmas cards sorted. And again dont know about you but the more i get done the better as always takes the pressure off! So with that that is what i planned my card round. 


I used these cute papers from Echo Park collection 'Winter Park'. These have such cute images in. I coloured my little skater bestie with copics. I used a punch to punch out some sparkly snowflakes and added some glitter glue to her faux fur trim but also to the bottom where her skates are as she has to have something to skate on! I used Magnolia dies. The ribbon is actually ribbon i picked up to use on some Christmas presents a few years ago and didnt end up using it. The lace is from my own stash, some i found on our travels. The sentiment is from La La Land Crafts


To finish off I added some frosty blue coloured rhinestones.

Summer Summer Time!


Hi everyone!

Now this is an exciting post! This is my first post as a member of the My Besties UK Challenge Blog. Exciting! We have some fab digis as prizes and a special priced digi available to purchase, the rules are up to 3 entries with a Bestie Image and one without so you can enter up to 4 times ....

Now the challenge that we have today is summertime! Nice challenge, and it warmed me up as its winter in Australia!

So for this card i used the fab DPs from Kaisercrafts collection Tropicano' all sunny and summer and beachy. Now when i think of summer i think summer dress, and lovely colours like pink and yellow. And when i left England to move to Oz it was ALL about these bands that went around forehead so this is the image I picked.

I coloured my little lady with Copics  I used dies from Whimsy and added some flowers from WOC and Prima in the shades of the tropical papers. I added some perfect pearls to her head band and to the middle of her dress.  Behind the image is some gold glittery mess so add to the beachy feel. The sentiments are from La La Land Crafts.

To finish off i added some shells- a lovely white one and a glittery gold one, both are nestled in the flowers.

I hope you like my very first DT card for the besties!

Skater girl


Happy Saturday guys!

I am here today with a card that ive been itching to make. I love love love this stamp.

I am entering my card in the flowing challenges -

LOTV Ideas to inspire challenge blog- Male or sporty
A creative romance - Anything goes with happy birthday option
Bunny Zoe Challenge blog - Layers


So why did i pick this image? Well it is super cute but also brought back memories. Sunday mornings dad and me used to toddle off to the coast, mam staying home cooking Sunday lunch and i was off n my roller skates with dad walking behind shouting for me not to kill people! It was something that i loved and i know my dad did too. I loved my roller skates!

So i used this cute image from LOTV and the DPs are from Maja. I coloured her with Copics and added some shabby green fran-tage around the edges. I added some wooden stars to the top left hand corner of the main image. I added two lots of lace from my stash and the die is from Magnolia. A bit of cheese cloth adds some texture. I distressed the edges of the DPs and added a tag i found on our travels. The green pin ties in with the green bow and DPs but is also from my win on the Aussie Besties blog hop. So cute isnt it. I added some sparklets in Cameo and a couple of pearls in latte. The finishing touch was this wood heart, as this is a memory close to my heart. Since it a Male/ sporty theme card I kept the inside simple using the stripes from the front of the card, carried over to the inside and a wooden star.

I hope you like my card.

This could be underwater love


Hi everyone

I am here today with a summery card while its winter here in Australia. A bit chilly in the Pilbara so perfect weather to stay in and colour me thinks.

The challenges I am entering with this card are the following-

Dutch Magnolia Lovers - Water , Beach
Totally Tilda Challenge Blog - All at sea
Simply Magnolia - Pin up
Time for a Magnolia Challenge - Summertime
Tilda's Town Neighbourhood blog - Fussy and fancy or clean and layers
Deep Ocean Challenge Blog - Inspired by a song

My song is 'This could be underwater love' by Smoke City

So for this card I used the gorgeous Swimming Tilda. She is one of the first maggies that I bought and havent actually used her, just love her so had to have her lol. The DP are from the Kaisercraft collection 'Tropicana' and has a lovely beachy summery feel to it.

Now Tilda is all out in the ocean on her own! Snorkeling but she has her fishy friends to keep her safe!

I used flowers from WOC, Kaisercraft and Prima. I added some shells to the cloth and also added in a little fishing boat and a starfish.  Behind the main image is some plae blue mesh.  The die of the glasses are from Whimsy and the sentiment on the main image is also from there. The sentiment at the bottom of the card is from La La Land Crafts.  I used a little bottle and filled it with multi coloured beads.  A bit of DI around the main image and some glitter glue adds some sparkle. To her fishy friends and mask I added some dimensional magic.

The pin is a little bright pink heart shaped  pin that was part of the gift I won on Besties Australia blog hop.

I added some rhinestones to finish off the image.

Hope you like my card !
