The Crazy Challenge goes to the Movies

Happy Monday everybody!

Over at The Crazy Challenge this week the theme is Movies and we are sponsored by Sassy Studios.

Here is my card using their Mary Poppins image:

I love this movie, could watch it forever.... that bag of hers is a dream, imagine having a handbag like that, that you could fit hundreds of thing into....

Here's a wee close up of Mary, I don't know if you can see, but I added some GA to the roses to make it look like raindrops (it does IRL), and well I just had to have the brown paper packages and whiskers on kittens there too!!

Isn't she just LOL.

A wee bag that looks a teeny bit like Mary's.

Pop over to The Crazy Challenge with your movie inspired cards, and if you'd like to be a guest designer pop GDT after your name when entering.

Ingredients:

Images: Sassy Studios and colouring pages from google

Paper: K & Co

Medium: Promarkers

Embellishments: Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts; charm, lace and bling from stash.





Sentiment: Computer generated and cut with nestie.

Thanks for looking once again

A Little Mermaid

Morning from a very wet and windy Scotland.

My thoughts go out to England and Wales today and hope that all these riots stop soon. Stay safe guys!

The below card I made for The Crazy Challege, but due to internet connection being down on holiday I didn't get it posted, but it's just too cute not to post:

The images are from Digital Delights by Loubi Lou. She has some great wee designs on there. I hand cut the 'seaweed' from some sparkly paper that I found in my stash.

I had to GD all of her scales to make her look all sparkly and underwatery, and used the same paper, but in a different colour as backing paper.

Aren't the little octopus and seahorse just sooo cute. The sentiment is also from Digital Delights, but I added some splashes and GA'd them for a bit of interest.

Ingredients:
Image: Digital Delights
Medium: Promarkers
Papers: From Stash
Embellishments: Sticky coloured dots (for bubbles), glamour dust, glossy accent.

I'd like to enter the above card in the following challenges:
Digital Tuesday Challenge 123 - I Love the Sea
Thanks for looking and any comments you are kind enough to leave!

The Crazy Challenge

Hello Crafters!

I've been off-the-grid for a week or so as I was away on holiday and would have to have fought a teenager for the laptop, and he's getting sooo big these days that I think he would have easily won!

Over at The Crazy Challenge this week we are being sponsored by Digi Doodles and you can win $10 to spend in their store.

The challenge is to use Embossing on your project, and this is what I made:

I made the card for my mum to send to Canada, as her cousin's daughter is getting married (I think the wedding was last week to be honest). She was going to pay me for it,but as she childminds for me free-of-charge I could hardly be taking money for a card now could I.

The image is from Digi Doodles 'Jr. Bride and Groom'. Aren't they so sweet. I used my Nestie to Emboss round the cut-out.

I also used my 'Dots' Cuttlebug folder to emboss some maroon CS and sanded the dots to make them stand out, before adding the foiled sentiments to the card.

So - come on over to The Crazy Challenge and have a go!! You can also add GDT after your name for a chance to be a guest designer!

Ingredients:

Medium: Promarkers

Embellishments: Foil It and flowers, charm and brads from stash
