Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello!

This week's theme at Sweet Stampin'  is Christmas in July. I made a card for this before I went away on holiday and last night decided I didn't want to use it so made another one instead! 

And by a stroke of luck, this is just to act as a wee peek that there will be new Lili of the Valley Christmas images coming soon and last year's are currently on sale over at the store!

Mooove Over

Hello.

It seems like ages since I shared a Lili of the Valley, it just feels like I've not had a minute!  Anyway, this wee coo from the Farm set (available as polymer and digi) is wishing you a Happy Birthday.  Or maybe not you, but it's someone's birthday somewhere.

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

 

Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' and our theme this time is Firsts. I made the 1st birthday card but one of the Sweeties had also done a 1st birthday boy card so I decided to do a Baby's 1st Christmas.  When I went to watermark the card I discovered a card I made for a friend leaving work for his first day in a new job so I'm sharing that too (his version wasn't censored!)

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

 

Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' .  The theme this time is Easter/Spring Mood Board  the photos that make up this board were all taken by our lovely Wends who compiled them to give us this inspiration.

Now this is actually the card I sent to Wends for her birthday and now that she has received it I feel that I can share it for the challenge.  I had another idea last night for which card I would use but looking at everything today I've no idea what my idea was! And I know they're ducklings but I wouldn't call Wends duck so I went with chick instead!

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

 

Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' .  The theme this time is KISS - keep it simple stupid... 

So here is a very simple card I made for my brother in law using the LotV candle set. I really loved the simplicity of this one - think I'll need to do something similar soon.

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

 

It's time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin' and it's a nice easy challenge to start the year - New! I've gone for new(ish) stamps and new year. I got these stamps a while ago, made a card, hated it, threw card in the bin and chucked the stamps to one side and then the other day I decided to try them again.

Fireworks - Catherine Pooler

Sentiment - LotV

Embossing Powders

And in a last minute rush, here's another card which is made with brand new stamps that I got for Christmas! 

99% Chance of Wine - Visible Image

Black Fineliner

Oops. I Lied.

Found another!

I wanted to use this Tim Hotltz die and it paired perfectly with this Whimsy stamps paper.  

The tiny bats are LotV digi stamps which I've got to be honest, because I printed them so small were a real pain to cut out!

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

It's time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin' and our theme today is Halloween.  I've made a couple of cards. Both were the results of just playing around!

I love what I've cut this second one out with.... it's the inside of Sue Wilson's Star Frame Christmas Die.  I'd been making something else and thought it looked good.  It's been sprayed with the Tim Holtz Hallowe'en Mica Sprays.

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

It's Nearly Christmas Eve..... 9 months to go ;)

Hello.

For the last few challenges over at Fezziwig's Festive Frolics, I've looked at the theme, had an idea and then the weeks have whizzed by and I've not made a card and not entered the challenge. However, the theme this time is Favourite Stamp so I decided I would definitely have a go.  I don't know if this is my favourite stamp but if I waited to decide, I'd not be entering this challenge either! 

So here he is, James, in the snow!

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

It's time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin'.  

 Our theme this time is a Spring Mood Board. This is a real challenge for me as I'm not great with spring pastelly colours! 

Anyway, I think I managed it....

A Sit Down. At Last

Hello.

I hope you had a good day yesterday. Santa certainly did and now he's enjoying a well earned rest! I didn't manage to share all of the cards I made this year (why change the habit of a lifetime), but like Santa I'm going to have some time off and I'll see you in January! 

Let's hope 2021 is kinder than 2020. Thank you for all your love and support through this year and for all of your comments.  I appreciate each and every one.
