LOTV Challenge Sketch


Well, another snowy day, managed to get down to the shops for a few things, a bit of a struggle & not a snow plough in sight, hope you are all safe & well, my son sent hope from work, for safety to the public, snow fell off the roof & smashed a bench, just shows how heavy it is.
I.ve managed to get this card done before the light goes, but don't think I've followed the sketch right, oh well just have to try another.

I've used LOTV All Wrapped Up coloure with Promarkers
Blue Arts Institute glitter
WOC cherry blossom & eidleweiss & hearts from local craft shop
Ribbon
Oddments of DP
Bazzil cardsock
Spellbinders ovals
Many thanks for any comments,

Snowman Challenge Card


This is my second entry to the PB @Allsorts November challenge
My first ever entry to the sir stampalot challenge
I have used my PB slapstick snowman, another new stamp, I really went a bit overboard on the Christmas stamps @ the secc.
I've coloured him with promarkers berry & antique pink , pear green & another, sorry can't remember & pastel blue.
The DP is from last year
Circle nestabilities.
The ribbon was from last years christmas wrap, it's a beautiful green & can't find it anywhere this year. I suppose it'll soon be time for wrapping again. i feel it should still be autumn I've missed out on September & October with being ill
I wish you all a happy weekend
Many thanks for visiting & for any comments

The Sugar Bowl Sketch


I loved the photograph of the castle stunning
I got my inspiration from that & in my head it was straightforward, could I get anything to match, why is it with so much stuff your always short of the one thing you need to finish a card?
Anyhow I managed to put something together.

I have used Dancing Maggie coloured with promarkers
Marianne designe doily with nested spellbinders incorporating heritage castle image
Laura Ashley DP
Ribbon
Sentiment Amuse stamps
Small bow

LOTV Challenge One for the Girls


This is my first time I just got some stamps at the SECC last week so just getting aquainted with them.
I got a bit carried away with the pink promarker , the bow should have been gray, but I've trimmed it with a fine line of Sakura glitter, not showing too well though.
I also got in a bother with the muff & used flower soft but didn't work well so I took it off & added glitter.
Hope this is ok for the challenge

I have used
LOTV All Wrapped Up? coloured with promarkers
Art Inst glitter
Blonde moments DP
Marianne doily
Ribbon
Many thanks for visiting & for any comments which are always appreciated
Hope you have some sunshine it's dark & dreary here on the east coast.
