Happy New Year!!

Can you believe it's only 1 more day till 2014.. This year certainly has flown, even the last week has flown... Christmas came and went in the blink of an eye. My boys and I haven't really done a lot, mainly cos the boys got a pool for Christmas so have spent a lot of time in that (even when it isn't that warm) LOL.
So it's time for a new challenge at Craft your Passion and this week our theme is Something New. For all the challenge details head on over to the CYP blog!

I used this sweet little girl from The Paper Shelter and also the paper that goes with her which I printed out twice so that I could layer it!. I also layered the flower in her hair and wings! I then added the buttons and rhinestones , flowers and the pin which is new (have had it for awhile but never used). I just typed up the sentiment. I love how this turned out, gorgeous card to finish the year with!!
Wishing all my followers a very happy and safe new year and hope that the year ahead is all that you wish for and more...

Last sketch of the year at Seems a Little Sketchy!

My mojo has gone missing since just before Christmas not just for making cards but any blogging or anthing!! But I need to find it real quick cos I have a lot of DT things to make very soon!
Anyway, a new challenge and our final challenge of the year at Seems a Little Sketchy which started last week. It is a three week challenge so that the DT could have an extended break so you still have 2 weeks to enter.

 I used this cute little penguin image that was a voted as a freebie at The Paper Shelter last year. I used the paper that came with the image and the pre-coloured image. I added the sentiment from a Polka Doodles cd and die cut the stars and added some kindyglitz.
I hope that you can join us for the last two weeks of the challenge.

Christmas Birthday at Polka Doodles!

Hello and welcome to the final Polka Doodles challenge for 2013!! Cannot believe we are so close to Christmas. This weeks challenge for us Polka Doodles DT was to make a Christmas birthday card using the Picknix cd collections. If I was to have a birthday in December I would like  it and christmas to be kept separate so I made a normal birthday card!

 I made this card in super quick time using papers, sentiment and images from the Picknix Collection 1 cd Rom.  I then added the ribbon and added the kindyglitz to the cupcake to finish it off!! Oh and I did a bit of sewing. I still have a million and one things to organise before Christmas. I still haven't even finished decorating my Christmas tree that is how busy I have been.. so I am away for the next two days to recharge my batteries then I'm back to get ready for the big day.
Be sure to pop by the Polka Doodles blog to see the rest of the DT creations and remember there will still be lots of inspiration over on the blog!!

Christmas ABC at Craft Your Passion!

A new challenge has started at Craft Your Passion and this week the theme is Christmas ABC - Anything But a Card. We are sponsored by Whimsy Stamps this week

All the teachers are getting bags of homemade fudge so I made this little bag for it to go in.

I have used pre-coloured images from Polka Doodles and then just finished it off with the eyelets and ribbon and the sentiment!!!

This is the last challenge at Craft Your Passion before Christmas but we will be back on the 30th Dec...

Wishing you and your families a very Merry Christmas..

The Littlest Angel!

Good evening! It's my turn to post on The Digi Bell's Blog again and again I must apologize (for about the 50th time in the past month)... Today's creation is another flashback to 2011. I made a Christmas decoration with this sweet image,Elisabeth Bells "The Littlest Angel" which you can get from here.

 I used a chipboard circle as the base of the ornament, which I painted white. I then added the diecut cardstock. I coloured the image in with tria markers and added kindyglitz for sparkle. I then cut off the stars and replaced them with wire and sparkle stars. Then added the twine to hang it up on the tree. I promise once Christmas is over I will be back with all my DT committments on time.
