Truly Scrmptious Challenge 17

Hi all, and happy Wednesday to you all.

Well they days are getting cooler, the nights are drawing in, and I'm getting ready for winter. Pulling out my warm clothes again (I hate to be cold), putting on the heating at home, and thinking about Christmas preparations. But just before all that I thought one last taste of summer with this image from High Hopes and my design team card for Truly Scrumptious this time.

I do love this image, it reminds me so much of my boys when they were younger, bringing all sorts of things home, and yes, including frogs....

The papers are from Basic Grey, which I love, and I have done a little doodling around the borders to fit in with the challenge this time. The sentiment is from Stampin' Up!

Why not pop over to Truly Scrumptious and take a look at what the rest of the design team have done too. We have a fantastic sketch challenge we'd like you to join in with a chance to win a fabulous prize. So what are you waiting for....

Take care, and thanks for looking.

Truly Scrumptious Challenge 16

Hi all and Happy Wednesday.

Well I've been rather busy just lately with my Stampin' Up venture, so not much time to post. I have, however, been bloghopping to keep up with you all. I may not have left as many comments as usual, but I have been looking. Thanks for keeping me inspired.

Anyway, here is my design team card for the Truly Scrumptious challenge this time.

I used papers downloaded from NitWit collections, which are very soft and girly. I love the circles in this sketch and you can see I'm still stitching. It's the 'in thing' for me just lately, I just love it.
The images are by Whipper Snapper and is so cute. It's actually a combination of four stamps to fit in with this weeks challenge to use at least three stamps. The little girl holding the bunny is one stamp, then we have the bunny sitting on the floor as another. The hearts are another one stamped twice, and the little kitty is the final one I've used from this set.

The image is coloured with Copic's, which I'm constantly adding to my collection. Why not pop accross to Truly Scrumptios and take a look at the rest of the Design Teams work.

Take care, and Happy Crafting.

Friday Sketchers

Hi everyone and Happy Monday to you all.

Well after not posting for a short while, (I've been busy trying to get my Stampin' Up! demo off to a good start) I finally managed to complete a challenge. Friday Sketchers have a super easy sketch this week, which I managed to complete in record time.

This super cute stamp is by Belles & Whistles, and I love it. I took the colours from my favourite Bo Bunny paper, using my trusted Copic markers. The punched ovals and 'For You' stamp are from Stampin' Up!, and the leaf die is from Sizzix, I inked the edges with a Stampin' Up! pad.

I jazzed up the Prima flower with a coat of Shimmerz Blingz Pixie Dust, which has really made it stand out. I love this effect, it looks better in real life.

Thank you for taking the time to look.
