Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Morning all, it's Saturday and that means it's time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin'. 

This week our theme is

Red Hot Summer

That's a laugh eh?! Schools stopped on Wednesday and it's been raining every day since!

And here is my card, which actually is much brighter irl - it looks a bit dull in the photo! I've used a Mo Manning image and I wanted to make it look like he was actually shooting so I used a water droplets stamp from Inkylicious on acetate and then glossy accented them. The frame is double 3d'd on top of the image but you're not going to really get a sense of that from the photo.

Challenges I'd Like to Enter

To Be Or Not To Be....

Hello

Just a quick post as I'm really supposed to be finishing the packing! I have lots to share but I have just simply run out of time this week - I have Father's Day cards and Teacher's cards galore so I guess they'll just need to be a tad unseasonal and I'll catch up when I get back.

This is one of the Teacher's cards that Craig asked me to make for his Drama teacher who was leaving at the end of term on Wednesday. 

I've used a Make it Crafty image for the stage and the lovely Cass discovered this image for me which went perfectly - up till that point I was using something else which I wasn't terribly convinced by but when I saw this Tiddly Inks image I knew it was perfect for what I was after!

and
a second prize winner will receive 2 Sugar Nellie digis.....woo hoo!!

(or 6 digis, if there are over 100 entries)

from

Make a card or other craft project using a Sugar Nellie image and this prize could be yours.

(remember the Sugar Nellie image - that's essential!)

I've used the fabby image Sweet Tea for my card and I've paper pieced her cup using some polka dot paper. This was a birthday card for a friend and the dotty cups reminded me of our fabby crafting weekend in Carlisle back in January.

Moving Along With The Times Challenge

Morning all.

It's time for a new challenge at Moving Along With the Times.

This week our theme is

Song Lyrics 

It's up to you how you interpret this - use a song lyric on your creation, be inspired by a song lyric etc....

We went to see Black Stone Cherry last week and so I decided to use one of my favourites from the gig as my inspiration. It's called Peace Is Free. I was hoping that in the Little Yellow Bicycle set that there was the word Peace but sadly there wasn't so I had to make do with Love Ya!

This is the chorus which inspired me.

Don't you bring your sadness down on me
When peace is free
There's a sun up ahead brother, waitin' on me
Can't you see

Moving Along With The Times Challenge

Morning all.

It's time for a new challenge at Moving Along With the Times.

This week our theme is

Happy Birthday! 

MAWTT is 6 this year (this is as close as we could get to our actual birthday).

I was going to make a 6th birthday card but I simply ran out of time so instead I'm sharing a 50th birthday card that Andy's Aunt got me to make for her daughter!

I've used one of the Saturated Canary images which came free on a disc with a magazine - although you can now buy these images as the disc and the magazine are no longer available. I've also used this image for a 60th birthday card but that's for another day.

Happy Birthday Scott

Hello!

Well, what a busy weekend that was. Scott's party. A surprise visitor yesterday, barely time to draw breath and the weekend was gone in a flash.

Today has been Scott's birthday and he's had a great day - he even said earlier, thanks for a great birthday....awww.

So this is the card from us. I'll share the one from Craig later.  I found this image half coloured in the other day and thought it would be perfect for Scott.
