Big Splash!

Hello.

I thought I'd finish my Whimsy  summer shares with this wee duck who may or may not be about to jump in the water.  I'm not sure he is!

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

Today's theme at Sweet Stampin'  is Cakes/Baking. Unfortunately I've been unable to create something new this week as I've not been well so I dusted off a card from last year featuring quite a large cake!

Now this one was made this year and yes, I can see there's no cake... but she is baking something (sorry, couldn't resist).

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.

Today I'm combining my Sweet Stampin'  and Whimsy  worlds in a never before seen (or probably to be repeated mash up!  Today's Sweet Stampin' challenge theme is Summer Fun and I think we can agree that wee Dude is having some fun in the summer! I've got 4 of these wooden houses from The Works and had the idea (in Spring) that I'd do some seasonal houses for my tiered tray displays.  This is the first one I've managed! Probably be Christmas before I get another done.

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.
 
Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' and this time our theme is Things With Wings. I was going to make this last week, had a great idea and then had lots of requests from folk for cards that I forgot about it and I've forgotten what my great idea was! However, a recent challenge at the Vera Lane Studio Facebook group came to my rescue.  The challenge was to make postage stamps for prompts that appeared every day in May.  I've finished the challenge but I'm not good at sharing my stuff and these wee guys haven't been seen yet and I think they probably deserve to get an airing (and yes, I think it probably was him.....)

Last Minute - Part 1

Hello. 

I can't believe that we're almost finished June.  I made this Whimsy memorydex card at the end of May in an effort to be more organised and then completely forgot to share her!

Late Running Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.
 
Apologies, I completely forgot I hadn't done this post! Last Saturday saw a  new challenge begin at Sweet Stampin' and this time the theme is Flowers.  Easy I thought.  Meh, not so much.  I'm not sure I really enjoy flowers!

This wee cutie came to my rescue though.

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.
 
Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' and this time our theme is Animals.  Easy you'd think? And maybe if I hadn't set myself so many conditions it might have been.  I cracked open a very old (and never before been used) stamp for this.

I saw a couple of memes this week that really made me laugh and as they fit with the theme I've made something from them.  I've only finished one of the two so here it is....

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Hello.
 
Time for a new challenge Sweet Stampin' and this time the theme is Earth Day or Use Something Recycled.

The hangers were made using packaging that came on a pack of socks I bought recently (I only have one of these so Leo and Marie have to share it!).  The coffee wrapper on last card is made using the inside of a toilet roll.  I had grand plans to make a toilet roll album but that hasn't quite come off yet.  Maybe next time!
