In the Garden ATC

 Good Morning Peeps,
 
Saturday morning dull but very warm here. 
 
I have this week been busy tidying up now the bathroom is all finished and all the dust and mess removed from upstairs and items put back in their rightful place and I have at last been able to get into my craft room and do a little crafting.
 
I wanted to get an ATC made for the ATC and Tag Challenge before time ran out this month.
 

I made a background using Distress Oxides and used an old LOTV background stamp, flower cut out with a Memory Box die.
 
Have a lovely day!

Christmas in July

Good Morning Peeps,

It’s Wednesday morning and I hope it’s not too hot for you today.  It’s not been too bad here a bit hot at night and hard to sleep but the last few days have been rather cloudy so a lot cooler.  I’ve been busy getting things sorted as starting today we are having a complete new bathroom fitted.  So upstairs will be a bit of a no go area through the day for about 8 days.

Back to today at Fab’n’Funky where this will be our last challenge before our summer break and I have chosen the theme of:

Christmas in July


For my card I used a CC Designs stamp, coloured with Copics and an embossed background with a Penny Black embossing folder.  I added some small snowflakes stamped with a Hero Arts stamp, a sentiment some small die cut snowflakes, nuvo drops and glitter.
 
Why not pop over to the challenge blog to see the inspiration from the Design Team and maybe get started on your Christmas cards by joining in our challenge.
 
Have a lovely day and keep cool!!

Christmas Baubles

 Good Morning Peeps,

I hope you have all had a good week, it's been very warm here but today is a little dull and cloudy.  It's Father's Day today so we have the family coming over for a BBQ (weather permitting), so something to look forward to. 

 It's also the start of a new challenge over on Girlz Creative Christmas Challenge, where this week our challenge is:
 
Christmas Baubles
 
 
For my card I used a digi bauble image from Angie Blom I printed it three times, coloured with Copics and fussy cut it out and hung them from the pine branch which is a very old die from A Cut Above, Dee's Distinctively.  The backing papers are from MFT and Spellbinders.
 
We would love to see you joining in our challenge.
 
Enjoy your day whatever you have planned.
