My card today is a DT card for the challenge at Fab'n'Funky where the challenge is "On All Fours" and we would like to see a four legged animal on your projects. Our lovely sponsor this week is Lili of the Valley with this super prize:


I chose to use one of my LOTV Christmas stamps, as they are our sponsors this week.

The embellishments were from my stash and I added a Christmas banner greeting.

Fairy Nice


Good Morning, Well I hope you all had a really good Easter, we, as a family, had a lovely time (though the weather could have been kinder), the girls all enjoyed their Easter eggs and being together. We have a lodger this week, eldest son and family have gone away for the week so we are looking after their dog, well puppy really as he is only nine months old, he is a lovely blue roan Cocker Soaniel and is very good though a little tying as he follows you around all day.

On to my card for today, it is my DT card for the challenge of "Fairy Nice" - let's see fairies on your creations - at "My Time to Craft". My image is by "LOTV" , I coloured her with Copics and added a little Stickles to the wings, the papers are Rayher and Dovecraft. The ticket stamps I think was a free one some time ago, I added pearls, lace, flowers, punched branch and a fairy charm.

I have a DT card to share with you today made for our challenge at Ooh La La, where the challenge this week is "VINTAGE". For my card I have used an image and papers from the "Passion for Fashion" CD, I distressed the paper edges and added some Victorian Velvet Distress Ink. The sentiment is courtesy of a friend, I used a Cheery Lyn die for the flourish and finished with some peach ribbon and pearls. I love Vintage and hope you do to, if so why not pop over to the challenge blog and enter your Vintage cards this week, hope to see you there.

Summer Fun


Another lovely day, it has been so warm over the last few days makes you think that Spring has been missed and we have landed right into summer, the only thing is that there are no leaves yet on the trees in the front garden and it looks so unusual when the temperatures are so high.

Anyway on to today's card for the challenge at My Time to Craft which is "Easel Cards". I made my card using a Tilda image coloured with Copics, the holiday scene and the papers are free ones from a copy of "Making Cards". I used a Martha Stewart edge punch, added a bow and the ticket sentiment is by Nina of Paper Cupcakes.
