Duh....

So I totally forgot to share my card for last weeks Cute Card Thursday Challenge which was Paw Pals....so here is the card, plus another I made at the same time...

So this one was for the challenge....the Paws are on the bear at the bottom of the Easel Card. The main image is a pre-coloured digi from Clipart Fairy and the papers are all My Minds Eye Love Me.

So here is another variation I made at the same time...

Both were custom orders, I added more embellishment to the first one as it was for a friend to give to her "Bestest Friend in the World"...

Feedback was the both of the new Mummy's loved their cards and kept showing them off....I love it when people love my cards.

I have another new card to share tomorrow for this weeks challenge on CCT...better make sure I remember to actually share it....

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - Easel Card...

Here is an easel card I made using an image from The Clipart Fairy. These images are already coloured, but my printer came out so pale that I have added some colour with my Copics using E000/E00/E11/R20.

The papers are all Craftwork Cards Sugar & Spice and I have added a butterfly sentiment also by Craftwork Cards, a ribbon bow and charm, AC Thickers, Melissa Frances rub-ons and a couple of pearl brads. The envelope contains a small card (with the same papers and image) and inside the name, date, time, weight etc can be added for the recipient to keep. The card was actually made for my next door neighbours who had their baby last Friday and only came home this week. She was chuffed with the card, and the little scrapbook I took for her to add pics to....a little brag book for her handbag...every new Momma needs a brag book.

I am entering this card into the challenge on Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge as they want you to make an easel card.

Just Magnolia - Easel Card!

This week over on the Just Magnolia challenge blog the theme is "Easel Cards". Now these gorgeous cards look so hard to make, but in fact are easy...even I managed them so they can't be to difficult...lol

For my card I have used Lovebug Tilda and coloured her with Copics (you can get them HERE from Tracy at Dies to Die For) using the following colours...
Skin - E000/E00/E11/R20
Hair - E50/E51/E53
Clothing - BG10/BG11/BG13/R81/R83
The papers are all Bo Bunny "Persuasion", and you can get them HERE from Dies to Die For, layered with Bazzill cardstock. I have embellished with some calico flowers that I made using a tutorial on SJ's Little Musings, some lace from Wild Orchid Crafts, some pearl bling, and sentiments by Craftwork Cards available HERE from Creative Treasures. I have also used my Stampin' Up heart punch to create some hearts from the Doodlebug Sugar Coated cardstock.

Here are a couple of other pictures...one from the side and a picture of the box.

Just a few more days until the NEC Craft Show....I have a shopping list, and plenty of spending money...thanks to my Birthday and I am being paid to take some wedding pics over the weekend, and I am really looking forward to meeting up with Bev, Jacqui, DawnyP...and anyone else who is going on Friday and wants to say hello!

Creepy Cake - Royal Pain!

As soon as I saw these new Creepy Cakes Digi Stamps from The Greeting Farm I fell in love. This one is called "Royal Pain" and I have coloured her with Copics using the following colours...
Skin - E000/E00/E11/R20
Hair - RV00/RV02
Clothing - RV00/Rv02/C0/C1/C2/C3/C5/C7/C9
I have used Doodlebug Sugar Coated cardstock, the scalloped cardstock is by Craftwork Cards in a pack of black and white that I got from Creative Treasures, the spotted paper is October Afternoon "Cherry Hill". I have embellished with feathers from Craft Fairy, heart pins, black lace, Dovecraft crystal decorative brads, ribbon from HobbyCraft and some pearl bling from my stash. To finish off I added a sentiment by Craftwork Cards.

Here is a picture from a slightly different angle. The card is really dimensional as there is 3D foam raising each of the three layers.
Be sure to come back tomorrow as I will have my card for this weeks challenge on Anyone for Anya?

SJ's Little Musings Friday Freebie

This week it's the turn of Bethanie over on SJ's Little Musings Friday Freebie. I have printed her out already coloured...although I have added some more colour to her face to make her a little more blushy...my printer didn't cope with skin too well....but at least you can add a little colour. When putting together this card, I remembered my Inkadinkado stamps that are quotes from kids....and this was the perfect sentiment...so I made the card into a Get Well Soon card. The papers are all Prima "Pulse Collection" and I have embellished with some KI Memories Love Elsie "Roxie" ribbon, KI Memories Love Elsie "Zoe" chipboard buttons, stars punched with Stampin' Up punch.

Be sure to pop to SJ's Little Musings Blog to pick up this cutie.

Crafty Angels Weekly Challenge Week 15 - It's All New!

This week over on The Crafty Angels Weekly Challenge Blog it is my turn to set the theme....and I chose "It's All New!". I want to see you make something for the first time....whatever you like, but I want it to be something you have never tried before. I decided to make an Easel card....I was a little worried as I am not a crafter that follows written instructions, and that was all I could find. Then on Saturday what should drop through my letter box but a gorgeous Easel card from DawnyP....and because I could see how it was made.....I could make it.

For my card I have used the DCWV "Rose Tinted Christmas", layered with some random pink cardstock from my stash, and also some scraps of Doodlebug Sugar Coated cardstock in Beetle Black. The image is by The Greeting Farm, she is a Wild Sprout called Vivi, and I have coloured her with Copics using the following colours...
Skin - E000/E00/E11/R20
Hair - C1/C3/C5/C7
Clothing - R85/C1/C3/C5/C7
Parcel - R85/C1/C3/C5
I have kept the embellishments simple by just adding some snowflakes punch with my Martha Stewart Punch, and also a Hero Arts bling snowflake and finally a sentiment by Craftwork Cards.
