Where's the sunshine?

 Hello blogland,

I'm here again with my card for the challenge that starts today over at Passion for Markers and this week the challenge theme is 'Feminine'.  Remember that whatever you enter you have to have used your markers to colour somewhere on your card / project.

This week we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter with a lovely prize of three digi stamps.  The DT were also very kindly allowed to use a digi stamp from the shop and this is my card made with that image.

Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
The Paper Shelter - Hammock Days
coloured with my Copics
(I freehanded the tree trunks)

Dies used:
Un-branded stitched rectangles
Creative Craft Products Die Set Everyday Sentiments

Stencil:
Creative Expression - 6x6" Clouds by Sue Wilson

Anything else:
Distress Ink
flat back pearls

And that's all folks, other than to say why not pop over to the blog and admire my Teamies wonderful creations, you could always put an entry in yourselves while you're there!

See you soon,
Sarah

What's your animal?

Hello blogland,

Looks like I'm having a better run of luck with scheduled posts at the minute - so let's hope this keeps that run of luck!

It's Saturday, and time for another challenge over at Sweet Stampin' and this fortnight the challenge theme is 'Animals' - so something stamped and animals in your project somewhere.

This is my card:


Supplies Used:

Stamps:
Time for Tea - Sundae Sweeties
coloured with my Copics

taylored expressions - simple strips: Background

Dies:
taylored expressions - simple strips: well rounded

Stencil:
Honey Doo Craft

Anything else:
Distress Ink
flat backed gems

Not the best picture ever - I really struggled to get the stencilled background to show in the photo.  The stencilling is quite soft and it did not want to show up in the pictures!

Anyways pop over to the challenge, my Teamies have made some wonderful cards!

Am off for a bit of retail therapy this weekend - it's a Craftarama at Lincoln Showground, so guess where I'll be on Sunday!

See you soon,
Sarah

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
