Winter Wonderland

Today sees the start of a new challenge over on Winter Wonderland where the theme is 'Christmas Presents'.  Our sponsor is Crafty Ribbons with a fab prize of a selection of lovely ribbons.

Here's my DT card.

This image is from Mo's Digital Pencil and I've coloured it with Spectrum Noirs.  The BP's are from Nitwits, dies used are Spellbinders and Cheery Lynn and the border was cut on my cameo.

The usual close up... lol.

ILPM's #140 Christmas is Coming!

Yep, it is coming whether we like it or not..... lol.  So for this weeks challenge over on I ♥ ProMarkers we would like to see Christmas cards.  

We have a fab new sponsor for this one, Marianne Designs and they have a great prize on offer too, 2 stamps and some foliage dies, pop over to the challenge blog to see a picture of the prize.

Here's my DT card.

 This is a digi image from Mo's which I bought last year and never used, no idea why as it's just so sweet.  The papers are from Just Inklined, the flowers were cut with a Marianne die, and the holly leaves a Cheery Lynn die, and the sentiment is from Cuddly Buddly and the glitter is Chameleon glitter from Debbi Moore Designs.

A closer look at the image.

Winter Wonderland - Photo Inspiration

It's Mariannes teams turn to host the challenge this week over on Winter Wonderland and for this challenge we want to see you take your inspiration from a photo.

We have 2 fab sposors for this one, the lovely Joanna Sheen who have a prize of a £10 voucher to spend in their online store and also Delicious Doodles who's prize is a choice of 4 digi images.

Here's the photo for inspiration.

And here's my DT card.

 I took my inspiration from the bauble, colour and sparkle.

 I used a fab image from Mo's, Elf Pipa and coloured her with ProMarkers.  The sentiment was stamped with a stamp from Wild Rose Studios, I used a Couture Creations embossing folding called 'Tied Together', pearls and ribbon from Mei Flower, and the usual Chameleon glitter from Debbi Moore Designs.

A closer look at the image which I decoupaged to make look more like she is laying across of the bauble.  These images are just soooo cute!

Diamond Wedding Anniversary

I was asked to make a couple of Diamond Wedding Anniversary cards last week, and thought I'd share them with you.

An image from Mo's called 'Bunches', coloured with ProMarkers and handmade flowers.

All dies used for this card are Spellbinders and the bead pins are handmade.

Winter Wonderland Challenge

So sorry I'm late posing my DT card for this weeks challenge over on Winter Wonderland, but we've got internet problems.  We have internet on the main computer, which is my son, Kris's computer, but we can't pick up any wireless connections.  After going through all sorts with the techi people at Virgin, they've now decided we need a new router, so we're waiting for it to arrive, hopefully Monday or Tuesday.  I've snuck onto Kris's computer to upload this card.

Our sponsor for this challenge is the wonderful Simon Says Stamp who have a £15 gift voucher to spend in their online store.  Our theme this week is 'Walking in a Winter Wonderland', so we need to see an animal ore person walking in the snow, on your entries this week.

Here's my DT card

 I just love this image which if from Mo's and I used ProMarkers and FlexMarkers to colour it in.

I used Spellbinders dies for the Poinsettia, some glitter from Debbi Moore Designs for the snow and the sentiment was computer generated.

Polka Doodles #33 Tags

I've been itching to use this image from Mo's, for ages...... lol.  So decided to use it for the present challenge over on Polka Doodles who's theme is 'Tags'.

The image is called 'Sugar Plum Fairy' and I love her.  She coloured with the usual ProMarkers and glittered up with Chameleon glitter from Debbie Moore Designs.  The BP's are from Pink Petticoat, the stamped sentiment on the tag is from Creative Expressions.
