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:

A wee girl is 1 !!

It's a bit of a dreich day here in Scotland, the sun was glorious the past few days, what happened to it :o(

I'm went to see the last instalment of Harry Potter last night, in 3D, and it was fabby, although I have to admit you still can't beat the books!

I'm also off to a 1st birthday party today, so hoping the sun will be out as Kiera (birthday girl) got a bouncy castle for her birthday from her mummy and I think my Ross will be looking for a wee shot :o) (I'd quite like a shot, but apparently I'm a bit old - dunno what they mean!!!), and a 25th Wedding Anniversary tonight (card to follow) I won't have anything else on for about 3 months now!!

This is the card I made for Kiera (no flowers on it as I didn't want her trying to eat them or anything LOL):

See - plain and simple!

Was worried about colouring Teddy Bea, but dunno why - it was a joy to colour!

And my little Foiled sentiment.

Hope the weather clears up so we can have a nice 1st birthday party in the garden!

My wee bit o news - wellll I have been chosen to be on The Crazy Challenge's DT! How fab is that, my first DT!! The more observant of you may have notice my wee badge on my sidebar. Am so chuffed that I was chosen :o)

The theme this week is Summertime and the below card I have made fits the theme perfectly.

This nice summery card was made using Make it Crafty digi images (7 images in all). This is the first time I have combined digistamps and it was quite fun and easy to do:

It is a huge 8 x 8 Craftwork Cards card. Might not be the last 8 x 8 I do as I seem to need more and more room to decorate on my cards these days.

This is a wee close up of all the digi images. Aren't they all so cute!
