Sparkle and Glitter Blog Progressive Challenge 15.12.15

Hello from a rainy dreich St. Madoes.  Oh this weather is getting me down!!  Never mind, it just means I can stay in and craft more!  Every cloud.......

Now, it is 15th December, so that means I will be doing 2 posts.  

First post is for Rick St Dennis Sparkle and Glitter Blog

We have been celebrating Creepmas, as in my previous post.  We were given a free image which we had to colour, so here he is.

He is a funny wee guy isn't he?  Poor wee man doesn't know if he is coming or going!!  Christmas.... Halloween.... what is it? LOL!!!

I made him stand in front of a Christmas Tree, and added a red bow and a red Poinsettia and he was done.

If you go over to  The Sparkle and Glitter Blog 
you can see what the rest of the Design Team have done with this wee image!
Post 1 is done, now I need to do Post 2!   Back soon!!!

This image shows Santa and his helpers in a bit of a state,

 as they are frightened of a wee mouse!!  As if it could hurt them!! LOL!!

This beautiful image can be found right here

Now, I need to go and get more Christmas Cards done.

Morning Goddess Halloween Hattie

Here is another Halloween Card using one of Rick St. Dennis' images.  

She is called Morning Goddess Halloween Hattie

I think she lives with her cats, loves Halloween and goes to her neighbours door to Trick or Treat!!  She certainly looks like she is having fun anyway!

I want to enter her in the following challenges:-

Rick St Dennis Airless Chambers, 31 days of Halloween Day 19

We are celebrating Halloween over 31 days on Airless Chambers Blogspot 

and today it is my turn to show you my project.

I have used the lovely, cute digital stamp called  Night Flight  

and you can see her below.

 I don't think anyone would really be frightened of this little witch, 

but appearances can be very deceptive!!

Why don't you go over to the Airless Chambers  and see all the other horrors on there?  

Perhaps you shouldn't do it alone though! LOL!!!!

I used the following for this card

Digital Stamp, Night Flight, available on Zibbett here

Background Digital Stamp - Free on the web

Coloured with Polychromo Pencils.

Archie

My goodness, time is just flashing by at the moment.

 It is very true, the older you get, the quicker time goes by.

I'd like to show you a card I have made using an image

 from Rick St. Dennis

 This wee chap is called Archie and he can be found here on Zibbet 

I made a simple card, but his shirt is as loud as can be!! 

 He looks very happy in it though, and who can blame him, he is on holiday!!  

I'm not quite sure what to use this card for, but it may be good 

for a retirement card.  Once I make up my mind I will put a sentiment on it.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges.

Inspiration Destination - Anything Goes

Crafty Girlz Challenges - Anything Goes / Summer Holidays

Crafting from the Heart - Anything Goes

I am now going to start a Scrapbook Layout before Jackson appears for his sleepover.  I don't get much crafting done when he is here as he wants to take all my pens etc.  If I give him his pens and crayons they are not as good as mine!  They learn young don't they? LOL!!

Have a good weekend everyone and thank you so much for stopping here for a wee while. xx

Haute Couture

Sorry, I have been Missing in Action lately.  I seem to have so much going on at the moment! It is quite scary.  I have slotted in a bit of time for a bit of blogging and also some colouring hopefully.

This image is called Haute Couture, and is another of Rick St. Dennis' Digital Images.  Isn't she glamorous?  Here is the link on Zibbett if you want to find her.

Haute Couture

I decorated the card using very old paper from a Hot of the Press pad.  I added ribbon and gems, and the flowers and silver corners are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  This is actually one of the images I coloured when I was on holiday.  Oh memories!!  I am now going to upload this to the Rick St Dennis page on Facebook.  I have another card to upload tomorrow, when hopefully I will get more time.

Have fun crafting and thanks for stopping for a look.  Please leave a comment to let me know you have paid a visit.

Valentine Hat

Hello from a very sunny Perthshire.  We are having lovely weather at the moment, it's almost too good to be true!  I'm just hoping it lasts a while.

 It's lovely to hear the birds singing and lawnmowers buzzing away!

I have just finished this card and wanted to enter it in a couple of challenges. 

The image is from Rick St. Dennis and you can find it here  Valentine Hat

Rick St. Dennis has images in various forms.  From Beautiful ladies

 to vampires and skulls!  Lots of choice there for you.

I'm still practicing my hair, but I am happy with the way this one turned out.  

I added little crochet flowers from Prima and a wee wooden birdcage which I bought in a pack of 4 in a book shop for £1!!!! Such a bargain I wish I had bought more than one pack though!

I am entering this card in the following challenges

Party Time Tuesdays # 197- Anything Goes

Glitter n Sparkle # 131 - Anything Goes

and lastly

 on Rick St Dennis Facebook Page Challenge

I'm babysitting now, so no more playtime for me. 

 I'm now going to be playing with Thomas trains on a track with Jackson!

If you stop for a wee look here, please leave a comment.  It really makes my day if I can see someone has been on my blog!

 

Bottom of the List

Good Afternoon!!  It is a lovely sunny day here in Perthshire.  It definitely feels Spring-like, so hopefully the weather will start to improve.

Here is a card I was asked to make.  Sympathy cards are always so difficult. I would say that they were definitely at the bottom of the "like" list for Crafters.  I do like the way this one turned out though.  I used a Clarity Stamp, and card and ribbon from the stash.

 

This card can be used for several things.  Birthday, Thinking of You, or simply Hello!!

The bird and the sentiment are both from Clarity.  

I used a Martha Stewart punch and matted and layered it up. 

Ribbons and gems from stash.

That's all from me today, I'm off to colour a digital image from Rick St. Dennis - Great fun!!

Take care now!

Love is in the air

It's Valentine's Day once again.  We decided not to give each other present's this year, but I still made a card for my Chubby Hubby.

I recently discovered images by Rick St. Dennis on Etsy and I immediately fell in love!

His  images are just so different and they contain so much detail. 

The image on the front of my card is called Morning Goddess True Sexxy

 I like this image as I think she looks a bit like me.  She is a curvy lady and she has blonde hair the same length as mine!!

 This was the wording in the inside of the card.  Explaining to him, that whilst I would like to look like the first lady in the mornings, I actually resembled the 2nd lady.

 and this lovely lady is called Morning Goddess Deb I hate Mr Alarm Clock

This images sums me up perfectly, as I hate getting up in the mornings, and it is best that you don't speak to me for a while! LOL!! 
I am entering this image into the 
  Sparkles Challenge. which is #64 One for the Boys

I think the front of my card fits the bill perfectly!! 
I am also entering it into the challenge at
