Magical Day

Good evening blogland,

This post is for the New Release over at All Dressed Up, normally you'd be seeing this post earlier in the month as I'm with the first half of the month team.  This time I was, very kindly, allowed to gate-crash the second half of the month team as I was well behind with my crafting.

So I won't waffle on, just say hope that everyone is well and here have a gander at me card!

Supplies used:

Digital stamp:

All Dressed Up - Pony Trek

coloured with my Copics

Dies:

Creative Expressions - Noble Collection: Double Stitched Squares

Creative Expressions - mini expressions

Anything else:

striped green card

Distress Ink and a cloud die for the background

So that's it folks, I'm still working away and being busy outside of crafting - looking forward to going to the craft fair at Lincoln at the weekend though.  Just because I don't craft that much, doesn't mean to say I can't keep buying crafting stuff, eh!!

See you soon,

Sarah

Check it out!

Good morning blogland

I do hope this post works for once, I'm going to have to come back later and check that it actually posts.

So, fingers crossed, this is a post for the new challenge at Passion for Markers and this week the challenge is 'Check it out' which basically means use some check or plaid or gingham.  Our lovely sponsor is Lili of the Valley and we have a fabulous prize on offer to one lucky winner.

As always, and the clue's in the name of the challenge, you do need to use makers somewhere on your project and follow the theme - but other than that go for it and have fun!

This is my make:

Supplies used:

Rubber stamps:

Lili of the Valley - So Mice (A5 set)

coloured with my Copics

Neat and Tangled - Hello there

The word 'there' from this set

Dies:

Creative Craft Products - A2 essentials landscape card die set

Time for Tea - Hey Hello Hi sentiment die set

My Favorite Things - Inside and Out stitched circles

Anything else:

check paper (of course!)

And that's it folks.

I'm still working hard and so, unfortunately, neglecting the blog.  If I'm to stick at this work malarky for longer than someone's maternity leave cover, I'm going to have to give some serious thought to managing my life!

Hope to see you again soon,

Sarah

Birthday Girls - terribly belated!

 OK - so, once again a post has not published when I wanted it to.  So apologies to all my Teamies at Sweet Stampin for this post being a week late.

Morning Blogland,

It's Saturday and time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' this fortnight we'd like to see all those cards for the 'Birthday Girls' in your lives.  As always, this is a 'just for fun' challenge so there are no sponsors but there a couple of rules.  First rule being follow the theme and second there must be some stamping (digital or rubber) on your project somewhere.

Here's my card:

Supplies Used:

Rubber stamp:

My Favorite Things - ALM - Big Birthday Wishes

coloured with my Copics

Dies:

Creative Craft Products - A2 Landscape Card Die Set

MFT - A2 Stitch Rectangle STAX set

Paper:

First Edition - New Bloom

Anything else:

Distress Inks

Gel pens

I don't think there's anything on this card (other than the die used to make the card base) that's under 15 years old!  I'm still trying to use old stamps - which in this case had never been inked - and they really do feel like they sit on the smaller sized card bases.

So that's it folks, hope you get a chance to pop over to the blog to see my Teamies wonderful creations and to enter yourself.

See you soon,

Sarah
