A very simple 3 in 1!


3 challenges in this one simple little card!

The sketch is from CPS (#45), the theme comes from Daring Cardmaker's ("new") and Arty Girlz challenge was to use embossing, so I used some embossed cardstock (although that might be cheating as I didn't actually do the embossing!)


Papers and epoxy sticker are Love, Elsie Jack and Abby, that my wonderful OH bought me for Christmas!

SSC - time


Hope you all had a wonderful festive season, I managed to get in my scrap room today for the first time since Christmas - and boy did it feel good!


This LO is for the latest challenge on the Scrummy Stash Cafe blog, with the theme of time.

Now, whenever we have a day out, lunch is always a cook up on our little stoves - no soggy sandwiches in tin foil for us! So I scrapped this picture of our alfresco lunch activities!


The papers are by We R Memory Keepers, alphabet stamps are Rusty Pickle and the journalling stamps are Banana Frog.

BTYD #22 and SSC sketch


Haven't done a LO in a while and I had so much fun doing this and LOVED the way it turned out!


The sketch was this week's challenge on the Scrummy Stash Cafe blog, and the theme for the challenge on the Crop til you Drop blog was new beginnings, so I scrapped some pics of my NEW scrap room!


The paper is by 3 bugs in a rug, and I added plenty of doodling with a white gel pen on the black cardstock (bit obssessed with this look at the mo!) The "my" and "space" of the title were cut from the same paper using the Plantin Schoolbook font cartridge on the expression and the "new" was doodled to make it stand out more.

This one I AM on time with! LOL

Another fabby sketch from Di, and this time I used papers and chipboard from the Cloud 9 Design Sorbet range, along with a length of white organza ribbon - a nice easy peasy one!!

Di Hickman December #2


Totally late with this one, but who cares, it's a fab sketch!!

For this one I used the Creative Imaginations Renae's House papers and chipboard and the strip of ribbon was a magazine freebie, thus satisfying the current challenge on Daring Cardmakers.

SSC - Rip up your stash!


Not literally thank goodness! No this was the challenge over on the Scrummy Stash Cafe blog - to use ripping and tearing on your project.

For this card, I embossed a piece of Bazzill bling Cardstock with a Cuttlebug embossing folder then tore off the bottom edge. The papers and die cut flower are Basic Grey infuse and the bookplate was cut on my expression with the tags, bags, boxes and more cart. I added the sentiment with a white gel pen, then added a couple of crystal brads.

BTYD #'20 and Arty Girlz #14


Over on the Crop til you Drop blog this week, Charli set the challenge to use stitching. Now thankfully it didn't have to be REAL stitching (which I despise!!).


I used Love Elsie Roxie paper (which has faux stitching on) and then stamped some blue bazzill with a zig zag stitch stamp. The "thank you" stamp is by Heidi Swapp.


This also qualifies for this week's Arty Girlz challenge to use a word or words as the focal point on your project.
