Good Morning Peeps,

Hope you are all well and that you have had a good weekend.  We have a new challenge starting today over on "Christmas with the Cuties" and our new challenge for July is:

Clean and Simple
(nice easy one for you but don't forget it must be Christmas)

We have a fabulous sponsor for you this month:

 
with a great prize for the winner.

The Design Team were lucky to have images to play with provided by our sponsor and I chose to use:

Snowman at the Window (available HERE)


I coloured the image with Copics, stamped the Lili of the Valley sentiment, added some Glamour Dust and doodled a frame around the outside edges.

Please take a look at the challenge blog where you will see some lovely cards by the Design Team, and maybe join in with our challenge this month and get a head start on your Christmas cards.

Feisty Females

Good Morning Peeps,

Well it's the longest day of the year today so let's hope it's a good one.  It's been lovely to have so many warm sunny days on the run but I don't think there is as much sun forecast today.  I am off this afternoon to see Heidi and Lauren in their Sports Day at school so it would be nice if it was a little shadier and cooler than the past few days.

As it's Wednesday we have a new challenge for you over on Fab'n'Funky there this week our lovely Buffy is the host with her choice of:

Feisty Females with Flowers 

We have a fabulous sponsor for you this week who were so generous with images for the Design Team:

There are some great projects on the Challenge blog by the Design Team, if you have time please take a look and maybe you will be inspired to join in with our challenge this week.

Summertime

Good Morning Peeps,

Lovely sunny Saturday morning earlier but clouded over at the moment, though the sun should be back later in the morning, so hopefully going to have a lazy day in the garden reading, but first of all it's time for a new challenge over on My Time to Craft where this week our theme is:

Summertime


I have had this stamp for a few years and never used it but thought it would be ideal for this theme, it is an Urban Stamp by Michael Powell from Docrafts.  I coloured with Copics, the die cut banner is from La La Land, the paper was free from a magazine and I added some ribbon.

Hope you all have a good weekend whatever you have planned, enjoy the sunshine and maybe find some time to join in with our challenge, there is some great inspiration on the challenge blog by the Design Team so maybe pop along and view them.

Down on the Farm

Good Morning Peeps,

It's Saturday so time for a new challenge at My Time to Craft where this week our challenge is:

Down on the Farm

I didn't have any images or stamps which I thought would fit this theme and then I found this rather nice image on a free Making Cards CD which I thought would be suitable.

 

The papers were from my stash and I added some plain tags with pearls, sentiment and a gingham ribbon.
