I then layered her up on some mauve card. The sentiment is one from my stash and this has also been mounted onto a piece of mauve card.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount of mauve card and I have used two of the papers from the Papermania pad a white background with gold bamboo design on, the second is a red one with characters on it.

Another card for Sundays with Santa "Card of many Folds" Challenge

Good Afternoon Crafters, yes I have used this sweet Funky Kits image for another of my Christmas Cards, I printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used Nestabilitie Labels Die No.8 to cut her out and a larger one for the mount out of blue card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" dark blue card but I used a A3 card and folded it with two front panels to it, and on both of them I have used a Maja paper that I have used one side on the left front and then turned it on to use on the right side, but as the front wasnt quite big enough to fold completely I used a piece of silver mirri card and used another of the Nestabilitie dies and this is a border one and I used two of them to cut the scalloped edge to it and then stuck it behind the left front side.
I then placed my mounted image in the center of the card and down the right front I have used a diecut sentiment down the page.

A Card for the Sugar Bowl Challenge

Good Morning Crafters, its been awhile since I managed to get a card created for the Sugar Bowl "April Showers brings forth May Flowers" Challenge, so I thought I had better put that right, and yesterday I created this card using "Sweet and Sassy" image, though its a Elizabeth Bell image its not available at Funky Kits anymore so I wont give you the link to try.
I have stamped her onto white card before colouring her with my copic pens, afterwards I used one of my Nestabilitie layer dies to cut her out and used a larger one for her mount. The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card the papers are from Sweetshoppe Digi Designs and this set are "Love Blooms Here" and I have used three papers for my card.
The first is a all over flower pattern on a white background and the second a plain green one and the third a blue and white diamond pattern, I have layered them up as shown and finished it of with a stamped sentiment which was then layered up and placed in the bottom right hand corner.

A Card for the Sundays with Santa Facebook Challenge

Good Afternoon Crafters, its really beautiful here in Gloucestershire and my dog has spent quite awhile laying in the sunshine by our back door, she loves the warmth of the rays and will move once they have gone.
Firstly I want to let you know that The Paper Shelter are running a DT Challenge over on their Challenge website, if your interested in joining our Design Teams please do go and see all the details over at The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot and see for yourself what is involved.

But Ive got a card I want to share with you, I won a gorgeous stamp on Sugary Sunday a couple of weeks ago and received it yesterday and as we have a Challenge on Sundays with Santa I thought it would be a good idea to use it as the theme is "Never seen Ink" and of course as this was a new stamp it hadnt.

She is called "Little Boots" and I have stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, I then used Nestabilitie Labels Die No.8 to cut her out and the fancy one for the mount. I cut the sentiment out with the Britannia Dies from blue card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card and the first mount is blue card and the papers I have used are from Maya Paper Pad "Vintage Frost Basics" and I have used just the one paper and then placed my mounted image in the center and the sentiment was then stuck down the right hand side of my card.

A Card for Sugary Sunday and the Sugar Bowl Challenges

Good Evening my fellow Crafters, I dont know about you but the time whizzes by and before you know it another week has flown by, Ive been trying to make up this card for about a week, but I had to get on and make the samples for Sarahs new CD so it go put aside and I eventually got around to finishing it of yesterday.
This is one of the Funky Kits stamps and I have stamped her onto white card then cut it out and mounted it onto a piece of lavender card. And the sentiment is one from my stash and this was also mounted onto another piece of the same coloured card as the image. The actual theme for both these Challenges is a card for your Mum or special friend  and buttons and bows, as I lost my mum 4 years ago I decided to create it for a dear friend instead.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card and the first mount is lavender card again and the papers are from the Lili of the Valley Lavender paper pad, and I have used three papers from it, the first of flowers and the second is a tartan pattern and the third is larger flower on it.
The mounted image was then placed in the center and the sentiment down the bottom on the left, to finish of I have placed three buttons down the card on the right and on top I have put a tape measure bow.

A Card for Sundays with Santa Facebook Challenge - "Non Traditional Colours"

Good Morning fellow Crafters, well its not raining at the moment but the clouds are on their way back so I guess we shall have some presently. My hubby and I are feeling rather tired this morning as our dog Missy was up every 2 hours with a tummy problems (I wont go into details) and needed to go outside, poor little girl she really did look sorry for herself this morning. She unfortunately does have a sensitive stomach and it causes no end of problems and this is probably a bug shes picked up with her sniffing in places she shouldnt. Ive rung the Vet (even on a Sunday) and shes suggested just giving her a Kaolin paste and no food so keep your fingers crossed it works as we certainly need a good night sleep tonight.
Todays card has been created with the Knitted Heart image from Funky Kits and as the Challenge is all about non traditional colours for a Christmas card I had to put my thinking cap on and this is what I came up with, I coloured her with my copics then cut her out with the new Labels 34 from Nestabilities and I have used a fancy one for the mount. The sentiment was stamped onto a banner and cut out and another for the mount.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of purple card and the papers are from Nitwits "Snow Princess" digi paper set, the first a purple paper with white stars on and the second is a floral one which I have cut a strip and I have used a snowflake border punch from Martha Stewart. The third a green strip one.
I then placed my mounted image in the center and stuck three different sized pearls down the side in the two alternative corners and the sentiment across the bottom.

Anyway to make up for it I created this card for this weeks Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday (Facebook) Challenges and have used this Leanne Ellis image, its been a long time since I have used any of them and the Sugar Bowl Blog are promoting them again hoping they might come back in fashion, so I thought Id give it a go.

The sentiment is one from my stash and has been mounted on a folded tag from La La Land.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of pink card, the papers are from First Edition "Love Letters" and I have used two papers from it, the base one is a pink background with a heart swirl pattern on and the second is a strip of patterned paper down the middle with flowers on it.
I have placed the mounted image in the center with the sentiment at the bottom on the right, I have also cut out with a Memory Box Precious Hearts Die two hearts and placed them at the top on the right. To finish of I have used 5 roses in various sizes and some punched out rose leaves in a spray at the top on the left hand side.

A Card for the Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday Challenges

Good Morning Crafters, well I dont know about you but it seems this weather is never going to improve all day yesterday we had heavy rainfalls though I must say it was a lot warmer than its been for awhile, I just wish it would improve so we can see the trees starting to leaf up at the moment there doesnt seem to be much growth at all on them. I did treat myself to some polyanthus and pansy's yesterday and popped them into the pots on my patio and they are giving us some colour for a change so maybe it might encourage the rest of the garden to cheer up, you never know.
Anyway todays card has been created for this weeks Sugar Bowl "Anything Goes" Challenge and the Sugary Sundays "Favourite Colours" one, Ive used this sweet Funky Kits fairy image for my card.

I know that pink is not the easiest of colour to use so I took the bull by the horn and then used it to colour my image, its one of my favourite colour choice as is purple and I did use a little of that on the lollipops. I then used Nestabilitie Die No.8 to cut it out and a decorative one for the mount.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of pink card the papers I have used are from My Minds Eye "Memorable" paper pad, the first a pretty pink background with white spot on, and for my second I have used a flower pattern on a cream background along the edge I have used a deep edged punch down the edge, then placed it onto the base mount and then took another piece of white card and ran it through my ebosser with a embossing folder and placed it along the top of the same piece of pretty paper.
The mounted image was then placed in the middle and then I cut a piece of pink card and used a label die for the sentiment and which was also cut with a oval die and placed on the label die and stuck at the bottom on the right hand side. The final flourish is the four gems in the top two corners.
