All buttons and bows

Good morning blogland

Firstly apologies to my Crafty Calendar Challenge Teamies - this post should have gone up yesterday at the start of March's challenge - no excuse other than I totally forgot. So I won't waffle on, but instead be short and to the point and get this published asap!

So, as you may have guessed after reading the apology above, it's the beginning of a new month and time for a new challenge over at Crafty Calendar.  This month the theme is 'Buttons / Bows' and we are sponsored by the lovely All Dressed Up Stamps - I do love Wendy's images and my Teamies have made some wonderful cards with the digis.  Here is my contribution:



Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
All Dressed Up Stamp - A Time to Share
coloured with my Copics

Dies:
Creative Craft Products - Torn Edge Nestables
MFT / Die-namics - Button Border
Impression Obsession dies - small bow

Anything else:
Craftwork Cards - allsorts (paper pack)
sheer bow
random button
Craftwork Cards - paper pops

And that's it folks - I do hope you forgive me for this late post but please also head on over to the challenge to both admire my Teamies cards and pop in your own entry. There's a lovely prize on offer!

See you soon,
Sarah

Challenge/s:

Krafty Chicks Challenge: #653 - Stamp Act

Crafty Catz: #627 - Anything Goes / option balloons

How lovely

 Morning blogland

Still not exactly where I'd like to be with the old bloggy-blog and cardmaking, but slowly getting there.

Card to day is for the All Dressed Up Facebook group challenge, even though I am extremely late to share my inspiration card, there is still time to enter the challenge.  Theme this month is Celebrations - so any project along that theme and the only other condition is that you have to use an All Dressed Up digi.

This is my card:


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
All Dressed Up - Love is in the Air
coloured with my Copics

Dies:
Pretty Pink Posh - Scallop Borders 2 and 'Love you'
un-branded stitched rectangle

Papers:
Basic Grey - porcelain

Anything else:
Creative Expressions - Clouds stencil
Distress Ink
Blending brush

I'm not overly happy with either my colouring of the main balloon or my photographic skills - areas still to work on!

Hope life is treating everyone well and if you Facebook and like All Dressed Up stamps why not pop a card in the group!

Thanks for reading,
See you soon,
Sarah

Hip to be (not) square

 Hello blogland, 

It's Saturday and Team Wends turn to play over at Sweet Stampin' - this fortnight the challenge theme is No squares

We'd like to see any shape you can think of for your creation - other than those squares. Please remember, also, that a large part of your creation has to follow the ethos of the challenge - stamping! It doesn't matter if it's old fashioned rubber stamping or the new! invention of digital stamping, there just has to be some stamping on your entry somewhere.

Now if I'd planned this I'd be going for a circle (it's what I tend to make if I'm not doing a square or rectangle) however with me having no foresight or planning I'd run out of time to make something. Hence I raided the archives - once again - and came up with this shaped / folded card I'd made for a friend of TTT's awhile ago, hope you like.

Front shot:


Open:


Side on:


Supplies used:

Rubber Stamp:
The Greeting Farm - Miss Anya Lounge
coloured with Copics

Dies:
Very, very old GoKreate - Frilly Frame
Spellbinder for the border and the mount for the stamp

Papers:
So old I'm not even sure where they are from - it could be Craftwork Cards but I'm not sure

Anything else:
flat-backed pearls
pre-printed sentiment from Craftwork Cards

I do hope you get a chance to pop over to the challenge blog, my Teamies have been much more inventive than I have with shapes (and also more organised to get something new made!).

See you soon,
Sarah

Happy to be here

Good morning blogland

I'll wait a moment while you all get over your shock at seeing a post from me pop up, then I'll carry on!

I did not mean at all to leave it so long between posts, I've had a few weeks of it! I'll not bore you with the gory detail just Internet problems, printer problems, child problems = either no time to craft or not able to craft or no way to share what I have made with you all.

Hopefully that is all behind me now and I'll be trying my hardest to get back my routines back, admittedly this week is half-term which has already scuppered my gym routines but, that to one side, I will be posting more regularly.

Oh just to reassure you all child problems are, on a relative scale, minor ones. TTT did something to the finger of one hand (she says she doesn't know how) and ended up in our local emergency care centre (used to be A&E but times move on) twice in two weeks! It's all healing now and the next big shake up is GCSE's in 12 weeks time.  Stress over revision and grades is the main thing on her plate right now and therefore on our plates also.

Moving onto more pleasant things - here is my February new release inspiration card for All Dressed Up,  Hope you like!


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
All Dressed Up - Valentines Boy
coloured with my Copics

Dies:
un-branded stitched rectangles
Creative Expressions : mini expressions - you make me happy

Papers:
Dovecraft - Sugar and Spice
striped card

Anything else:
paper twine
scrap of Kraft card

I think I've done enough waffling for now, so I'm off! Hopefully I'll see again sooner rather than later!

Now with sentiment

Good morning blogland,

I've had to slightly amend this post - I thought it was scheduled for Saturday, but didn't go live / post / appear - whatever you call it - and I've no idea why! So here I am hopefully better late than never!

There's a new challenge starting today (actually Saturday 7th Jan) over at Crafty Calendar Challenge first one of the New Year! I'll assume you are here following the challenge and wish you a very Happy New Year, even though rather belated!

So this month we are sponsored by the wonderful SheepSki Designs, I have to admit I have quite a few of these images - they are great for detailed colouring, my 'thing' when it comes to card making! The theme of the challenge is 'Add a sentiment', which I hope is self-explanatory. My sentiment is 'birthday'.

And here's the card:


Supplies used:

Digital image:
SheepSki Designs - Taking Pics
coloured with my Copics

Digital sentiment:
Lili of the Valley - Grunge Stamp Sentiments

Anything else:
Square double stitched die

I really do think these images lend themselves so well to being the focal point of the card and I just love them!

Please pop over to the challenge and have a look at my Teamies work - it's lovely - and then join in while you're there, you never know you might win!!

I'll finish with adding in apologies again for the delayed post - I really do need to find time at the weekends to check the gremlins haven't got into the system! Or, which is more likely, I selected the right day for a scheduled post to publish!!!

See you soon,
Sarah

Anything new

Happy New Year blogland!

I'm back after taking a deliberate Christmas / New Year break from blogging with my card for the first challenge of the new year over at Sweet Stampin' - it's not my Teams challenge, but I'm sure I joined in last year and thought why not make a new habit! So the theme this fortnight is simply New - which can be Happy New Year, new home, new baby, new job. new stash, the range is really quite wide!

I went with new stash (plus new habit!) as it's hubby's birthday on 29th December so I always get a new digi for his card.  This year it was a new digi and new stencil. Here's the card I made:


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
Mo's Digital Pencil - yeehaw
coloured with my Copics

Sentiment:
Mo's Digital Pencil - Flippin Fairy

Dies:
un-branded stitched rectangle
Pretty Pink Posh - Scallop borders

Anything else:
Julie Hickey stencil - 'birthday'
blending brush
Distress Ink
Glitter

I know the image and sentiment might not look like they go together, but for me they work! I knew hubby wouldn't be keen on the image (he's trying very hard not to notice his age!) and I thought he'd probably appreciate the idea that he can stay awake and plot revenge on me for this card. :-)

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year - not much to say about ours as it's just us three in our little family so it's always quiet.

Look forward to seeing your entries to the challenge and see you again soon,
Sarah

Clean and Simple

 Good morning blogland,

This is a very quick whistle by to share my All Dressed Up Facebook challenge inspiration card.

The end of the month seems to have crept up on me in a big way and I've been nowhere near the blog, other than to post my DT cards, for probably getting on for a month.

One my resolutions for New Year, along with getting back into my gym routine, is to allocate more time keeping the blog going. For now though, this is what it's getting!

So the theme on the Facebook group for December is  'Clean and Simple'. Now that is a challenge I can get behind and this is my creation:


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
All Dressed Up - Abi Ballerina
coloured with my Copics

Rubber sentiment stamp:
Whimsy Stamps - Simple Sentiment Strips

Dies:
Pretty Pink Posh - Scallop Borders 2
un-branded stitched rectangle die set

Anything else:
Cuttlebug embossing folder - Daisy Pattern

Strange, isn't it, how so many things go into making a 'Clean and Simple' card!

I'm not sure I'll be back before Christmas, if I'm not I'll wish you all a very Merry Christmas now, but I will definitely be back before the New Year.

See you soon,
Sarah

New digi time!

 Good morning blogland,

I'm here today (a little late, as always) with my card for the new releases over at All Dressed Up.  Wendy has, as always, outdone herself with the cuteness and there are some fabulous new images in this release. The lucky beggar that I am got to play with Winter Pups and this is my creation.


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
All Dressed Up - Winter Pups
coloured with my Copics

Rubber stamp:
Wild Rose Studio for the 'from our house to yours'

Dies:
Creative Expressions - Stylish Script: Winter Wishes
un-branded stitched rectangles

Anything Else:
Lawn Fawn - Stencil: brick
very old patterned card

As always there is a wealth of inspiration from my All Dressed up Teamies in the Facebook Group or over on the blog, hope you can find your way there!

On a personal note I appreciate I'm being the worse blogger in the world at the moment - not replying to any comments or doing any commenting myself (other than DT). I offer up my sincere apologies and can only say life is hectic and I do, truly, hope to be back to normal as soon as possible. 

Cheers,
Sarah

If you are here looking for my Sweet Stampin' challenge card it's the post before this one.

This post is all about Crafty Calendar Challenge, this month the theme is Anything Goes and is sponsored by Lawn Fawn, with a great prize on offer. As we are a monthly challenge and this month is December (the last month of the year, if you hadn't noticed!) the next time you see us we will be in 2023! I know I'm going to sound cliched, but my goodness this year has really flown!

Here's my card:


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
coloured with my Copics

Rubber stamp:
Neat & Tangled - Hello There

Dies:
unbranded stitched rectangle set
Pretty Pink Posh - Scallops
Lawn Fawn - lawn cuts 'hello border'

Anything else:

And done! As with the previous post this will be the last time you will see me for Crafty Calendar Challenge, so I hope you all have a great Christmas period (if you celebrate) and see you either in the Challenge or here on my blog in 2023!

Sarah

Challenges:


Sweetie Christmas

Good morning blogland,

This is the first of two posts from me today.

As it's a Saturday it's time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' Challenge - this time, as we are coming up on Christmas, we are having a month-long challenge. You probably won't be surprised to learn the theme is Anything Christmas, any type of craft is welcome but please remember there has to be some stamping (digital or rubber) on it somewhere.

This is my card:

Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
Pollycraft - Happy Mail (no link as Pollycraft no longer exists)
coloured with my Copics

Rubber stamp:
Altenew - Festive Sillouettes

Dies:
un-branded DL stitched dies set

Anything else:
Creative Expressions - Clouds stencil
Distress Inks
blending brush
red card

I'll be back myself (today, inf fact!) before the end of the Year but that's it from The Sweeties this year. I hope you all have a non-stressful run up to the Christmas season and as a pleasant a Christmas (if you celebrate) as is possible.  See you in 2023!

Sarah

Not a Reindeer!

 Good morning blogland,

Running slightly late here, as TTT is not feeling well and I've been doing the whole yes/no school thing - which has ended with a 'no' and mucked up my morning. She's back in bed and asleep now so I can get on, but with less 'waffle' than normal.

And, getting on is telling you it's time for a new challenge over at Colour Crazy Challenge.  This week's wonderful sponsor is HettyClare.  The DT were very kindly given digis to pick from, this is my make with the super cute Pony Xmas Hat.  

My line of thinking went a bit like this - could someone be trying to dress the pony like Rudolph the Reindeer, and would that annoy a cute, but possibly grumpy, pony? Hmmmm, maybe! Let's go with that, it could be funny!

Card that arrived from that idea:


Supplies used:
Digital Stamp:
HettyClare - Pony Xmas Hat
coloured with my Copics

Sentiment I created in Publisher

Dies:
un-branded stitched DL set

Anything else:
Picket Fence Studios stencil - Artic Winter
Distress Ink
stencil brush
bit of twine
red card

So, I do hope all you colourists out there get a chance to pop over and join in with the Challenge, there are some fab inspiration cards from my Teamies and a great prize on offer.

See you soon,
Sarah

OK, so another one of those cards

Good evening blogland

I'm nipping in here before the end of the month to share my All Dressed Up FaceBook group challenge inspiration card.

This month the theme is 'Seasons Greetings', so it's time to dig out the Seasonal images and do Christmas far too early in the year! Still it's not too bad this time, even though I'm not keen on the whole season, I quite like this card. I like the image and my colour scheme - going monochrome is one of my favourite ways to colour.

There's a load of fabulous inspiration from the other Facebook Teamies, if you Facebook why not head over and pop in an entry.  You've still got a week to go till the end of the month and the challenge closes.

And here's the card:


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
coloured with my Copics

Dies used:
Un-branded stitched rectangle dies

Anything else:
Bakers Twine
star embellishment

Hope everyone is doing well - we've just got back from TTT's schools' 6th Form Open Evening. Can't believe she's doing GCSE's next year and thinking about A Levels already!  Still no idea what she wants to do for a career though. I'm not surprised - who really knows what they want to do for their life at 15 years of age!

It's getting a bit late so I'm heading off now, got dishes to do and a bed calling!

Lots of birthday wishes

Morning blogland,

Time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' and this fortnight it's a theme of Birthdays! The reason for this theme? It's because Sweet Stampin' Challenge is 13 years old today! 

Makes me feel old - I remember joining the team first time round when TTT was SWMbO and to explain to anyone who is wondering what nonsense I'm spouting these are my names for my daughter.  She's currently known as 'The Terrible Teen' (TTT) but when I was first blogging was a small child who liked to get her own way hence 'She Who Must be Obeyed'(SWMbO). My goodness where does the time go!

Anyways, onto the official stuff - you can enter any craft project you like into the challenge, it doesn't have to be a card, but as we are a stamping challenge, there does need to be some element of stamping on your project. We don't mind if rubber or digital, that's up to you!

I make mostly birthday cards and haven't blogged many of them recently so had a lot to choose from. I couldn't pick from a couple of favourites, so I gave the choice of which to choose to Susan of Team Susan and she said - use both! So here are both.

Card one:


Card Two:


Supplies used:

Card one:
Digital stamp:
Saturated Canary - Be You
coloured with my Copics
Rubber stamps:
Time for Tea Designs - Bold Sentiments
taylored expressions - Think Happy Thoughts
Whimsy Stamps - You're my Always
Dies:
un-branded stitched rectangle and alphabet sets



Card two:
Digital stamp:
Saturated Canary - Cupcake Cutie
coloured with my Copics
Rubber stamp:
taylored expressions - Simple Strips: Birthday
Dies:
un-branded stitched rectangles
taylored expressions - Simple Strips: Well Rounded
LaLa Land Crafts Dies - Heart Banner


It would be lovely if you could find time to pop on over to the blog and join in - 13 years and still alive in Blogworld I think is a good achievement! You'll also see the fabulous array of cards my Teamies have made, and they are fabulous - Teamies and cards both!!

Hope to see you again soon,
Sarah

Challenges:

Card One:
Polkadoodles - Wk 46: Anything Goes
Happy Little Stampers - Anything Goes with Dies (November)


Card Two:
Gem of a Craft Challenge - Wk 24: Anything Goes
Seize the Birthday - #251 : Many of Something (Cupcakes)

Acorn Fairy

Good morning blogworld

I'm here with a card using one of the images from this month's new release from All Dressed Up Stamps. As part of the Facebook inspiration team I get to see these images a little early, but more importantly I get to have a play with one of them and this is the card I made from the image I got to colour in.


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
All Dressed Up - Acorn Fairy
coloured with my Copics

Rubber sentiment stamp:
Altenew - Inked Lotus

Patterned Paper:
First Edition - New Leaf

Dies:
Creative Expressions - Double Stitched Squares
Pretty Pink Posh - Eyelet Borders

Anything else:
Flatbacked adhesive pearls

There are some super cute images in this month's release and, if you do 'do' Facebook, I heartly encourage you to go take a look. You can find the wonderful cards and projects my Teamies have made over on the Facebook group.

I think that's all for now folks - I do have some interesting life stories to share but that will be at another time on another post!

See y'all soon,
Sarah

Challenge/s:

Passion for Markers: Week 666 - Make it Digital - main image is a digi stamp. (I have to say I thought it was a little dodgy me finding time to join in with challenges again on week 666! I do hope it's not a bad omen!!! ;-) )

My kind of person

Good evening blogland,

This is my second DT post today and this time I'm back with a card for the new month and new challenge that started over at Crafty Calendar Challenge.  This month our theme is a very simple 'Anything Goes', our sponsor is Mirtillamente and we were given the choice of a digi to use.

I liked the look of this steampunk girl and thought she'd be great fun to colour - so here I am with the card I made!


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
Mirtillamente - So'Getta steampunk gears
coloured with my Copics

Rubber stamp:
taylored expression - Simple Strips: Friendship

Dies:
un-branded rectangle stitched dies
taylored expression - Simple Strips: asymmetric 

Anything else:
Lawn Fawn - Brick Stencil
blending brush
Distress Ink
extremely odd paper 'dots'

I do hope you can pop over and join in - Anything Goes is a really inclusive theme and we really do accept any sort of craft project!

That's me done for today, ever the eternal optimist I'm still hoping that life and this artistic slump I'm in will ease up on me soon and I will start blogging and card making again regularly. I'm still colouring, when I get time, I just seem to be stuck with what to do with the images. Maybe a little internet shopping might give me some inspiration for the craft block, but don't know what to do about life!

So, cheerio for now and hope to see you soon,
Sarah


Gratitude

Good morning blogland,

It's not only Saturday morning, but also the first Saturday of the month and so time for a couple of DT cards.

I'll start with the new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' Challenge where this fortnight the challenge theme is 'Attitude of Gratitude' - which basically means we'd like to see anything that expresses thanks or gratitude, this can include Thanksgiving cards for our friends across the pond. 

I have to say that while I like all the individual elements on this card, I'm not overly happy how it all came together. I was going to make another card but ran out of time, so this one it is!


Supplies used:

Stamps:
Stamping Bella - Bundle Girl with snowdrops
Taylored Expressions - Big Thanks
random flourish stamp

Dies:
Pretty Pink Posh - Scallop Borders 1
Sunny Studio - stitched circles

Stencils and ink:
Pretty Pink Posh - Layered Hearts
Memento - Dew Drop

I do hope you have time to pop over to the challenge blog and take a look at the much better cards my Teamies made, possibly even pop your own creation in! Just remember we are a stamping challenge, so some stamping (digital or rubber) needs to be used in your entry. Look forward to seeing you there.

In the meantime I'm going to finish off the second card that I started, which was meant to replace this one, during the week and share that, don't know if that's a threat or a promise there!

See you shortly for my other DT card.

Final Boo!

Afternoon blogland

Pretty sure this is going to be my final Halloween card - I now have three that I've enjoyed making but no-one to give them to! I'm wondering if some of my next cards might have the same colour combos but different themes.

So, this one was made for the All Dressed Up Facebook group monthly challenge - there is still a short while to enter a card / project. The challenge this month, yup you guessed it, Halloween / Autumn! I know I could've gone Autumn, but I'd already made one Halloween card and sort of got into the swing of it.

 This time the card went a bit cute:


Supplies used

Digital stamp
All Dressed Up - Boo did I scare you
I used Copics to colour the image.

Dies:
My Favorite Things - Die-namics circle
Creative Craft Products - scalloped DL background

Anything else:
Tim Holtz - Distress Oxide inks 
blending brush
fineliner to draw the cobwebs

That's it for now folks, 
see you again soon,
Sarah

Fab 'n' Funky Challenges: #559 - Season's Greetings - I was feeling doubly ghoulish! Hope it qualifies


Use Your Stuff: #469 Die cuts

Boo Two!

Morning Blogland

Well, this year does seem to be completely running away with me - I've just realised that I've not posted in over a week, but it only seems like yesterday that I did. I hadn't realised how quick time is passing!

This post is for the new challenge that started today over at Sweet Stampin' with the challenge of 'Halloween / colours of Halloween' - as always please remember this is a stamping challenge so there does need to be some element of stamping in your entry, whether digital or rubber.

I'm sure I might have mentioned (along with that I don't 'do' Christmas) I don't 'do' Halloween. I mean, I understand the concept and I understand the original reason for it, but I don't 'do' this commercialised version of it.  In all honesty it really just passes me by, TTT did use to go 'trick or treating' as she was desperate to do what her friends do, but other than the occasional pumpkin we don't decorate or make a fuss.

However, having said that - I was colouring something else, had this image on the desk and, following a WhatsApp conversation with TTT who was on a school trip to Iceland at the time, this image was coloured, and this card produced. I had great fun turning the doll into a zombie!


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
Mo's Digital Pencil - Dolly
coloured with Copics

Dies:
Un-branded stitched rectangle dies
un-branded alphabet

Paper:
echo park - Chillingsworth Manor

Annnd that's about it folks,
I'll try my hardest not to leave it so long in-between posts next time,
See you all soon,
Sarah

Challenge/s:


Crafty Catz: #611 - Anything Goes (optional use twine or ribbon)

Cupcake Inspirations: #555 Halloween Fun

Not a birthday?

 Good morning blogland,

It's Saturday and time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin' Challenge this fortnight I am actually meant to be joining in and the theme is 'Anything but a birthday card'. Fairly straight forward this fortnight, anything you care to make - as long as there is some stamping (rubber or digital) on it somewhere - but not a birthday card.

I'm using an image I coloured from lessons I took from Mindy at My Creative Scoop some time ago.  I loved colouring the image, but I had no idea what I use it for when I was colouring it. So, once done, I sat and stared at it for a bit and decided it would be a good anniversary card - so that's how I finished it.

Said card:


Supplies used:
Digital stamp:
As far as I know it's unique to Mindy Baxter's lessons at My Creative Scoop 
coloured with my Copics

Dies:
Pretty Pink Posh - Scallop Borders
Lawn Fawn - 'Happy (heart) Day'

Anything else:
Dotty card

I do hope you find time to pop over to the challenge blog - my Teamies have made some wonderful 'not birthday' cards and it's always a fun challenge to join in with!

Fair warning, it won't be long before you see me again - but for now, cheerio!

A 'whale' of a time

 Good morning blogland

It's new challenge time over at Colour Crazy Craft Challenge, as always there are a fabulous selection of inspiration cards on show from my Teamies and a lovely prize from one of our fabulous sponsors.

This week we are sponsored by Patties Creations, who have very kindly given the Design Team some digi stamps to create with. This is the card I made with my pick of those images - the cute Wilma Whale digital stamp.

I thought the image would work well for a classic Clean and Simple card - so that's the route I took. The image (and a sentiment I created in Publisher) was printed onto Copic friendly lightweight card and then coloured in with my Copics. I then masked off a block around the image and inked with Distress Inks. I added embossing with both an embossing folder and an old-fashioned bone folder (on the image panel itself) for final touches, again the embossing is not showing very well in the picture - but I assure you it is there.

I think, with the decreasing light levels I will need to re-adjust my light box as I'm finding I'm having to play about too much editing the picture and some details are being lost.  Oh the joys of Autumn, eh!

Here is my card:


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
Patties Creations - Wilma Whale
coloured with my Copics

Anything else?
un-branded stitched rectangle dies
A4 embossing folder (un-named)
Distress Inks
Publisher (for the sentiment)
self-adhesive rhinestones

And that's it folks! I do hope you find time to join us over at the challenge - if you do please remember we are a colouring challenge, so as long as you've hand coloured something, anything goes!

Bye for now and see you soon,
Sarah
