It's Friday, so that means it is Crafty Catz Day!!!

                         The sponsor for our challenge 

this week is  CONIE FONG

Conie Fong is a self-taught artist residing in California, USA with her husband, daughter, pet hamster and fishes.

 In her early childhood years, she was inspired by every kind of art and crafts.

 She loved watching demonstrations by artists on the streets and at festivals and spent most of her free time      perusing arts and crafts books in the library, drawing, crafting and experimenting with her art supplies at home. 

Conie first started sharing her art with the world by selling ACEO reprints of her ACEO paintings of fairies, mermaids, and kitty art on Ebay in 2010.

 She was a full time account manager for a University before becoming a full time mom and part time artist. 

She currently enjoys spending time with her family travelling, exploring the outdoors, and designing beautiful, cute, and magical art for craft and colouring lovers.

Conie is one of my 

 favourite digital artists, and I have a few of her designs in my library

The image on my card is Flower Girl basket and she can be found

The theme this week is Get Well, so why not enter one of  your cards? The prize is 3 digital images from Conie's Etsy shop

The first challenge I am doing is using a digital image from

I have only just discovered this artist and I am in love with her designs, especially her images of Highland Cows, my favourite animal!!!

Creatalicious Challenges #236

 Hello again!  I have just had to fork out for a new laptop, printer and kettle!!!!  Very expensive weekend I had.  Still loading things back onto my laptop, what a nightmare!

It's time for the Creatalicious Challenge once again.  This time the theme is "Lots of Bling" 

I have chosen this wee card for a new baby

Once again, I have chosen an image from Mo Manning.  Isn't she a cutie?  This image can also be used for a boy of course.

I have coloured this image with Promarkers, the gems and embellies were from my stash.  

I hope you like m y card, and remember you can see more Designer's cards on the Creatalicious challenges blogspot

Bye for now, I'll hopefully be back soon!!

Creatalicious Challenges #234 AG with option of Mother's Day

 Hello again.  Have you been getting glorious sunshine where you are?  In my wee corner it has been glorious sunshine wall-to-wall and I am loving it!!

I've been very busy in my greenhouse, sewing seeds and watching them grow.  I love it and I marvel at this every single year.

So, onto the challenge.  Anything goes with the option of Mother's Day.

I have picked this wee card using a Lili of the Valley image.  The sentiment reads Picked Just for You, and that's what we do for our mum's, don't we?  We pick something special, as they are very special to us.  I lost my mum over 30 years ago and I miss her more now than I did when she passed away.  My daughter has just become a new mum, which now makes me a granny of 7 and 1 Angel Baby.

pop over to Creatalicious Challenges blogspot and have a look at the design team's cards, and then enter one of your own.

Take care and stay safe until the next time. xx

 Hello again!  Well it's time for another challenge at Creatalicious Challenges, where does the time go?  the weeks simply fly past at the moment.

The challenge this time is Anything goes with the option of Spring Colours.

My card this time is using an image by Mo Manning (Yes, my favourite)

I love the spring, when everything comes to life.  I have flower seeds planted in my greenhouse and they are all sprouting wonderful green shoots.  It's wonderful to watch them appearing.

Creatalicious Challenges #231

 Hello and welcome once more.  

Well, the world is not a nice place at the moment, and I hate the news, as it is always bad news.  My heart goes out to anyone anywhere in the world who is struggling, in pain or living in fear.  I hope that common sense will prevail in every country.

I'm late for the Creatalicious Challenge, and I am so sorry.  However, here it is now.

The theme this time is Fairies, and I love the wee cutie pictured above.  I've actually just eaten a cupcake like that!  It was delicious too!

Well, this is going to be short and sweet I'm afraid.  I'll go  for now, but I will try to be back really soon.  Take care now. xxx

Creatalicious Challenges #230

 Hello again and welcome to my wee part of the world.  it was a beautiful sunny and warm - yes warm day today.  Beautiful blue sky and sunshine all day, really super for 1st March.

I should have loaded this up yesterday, but 28th February is my Grandson's Birthday, and I was helping his mummy to bake cakes for his little tea party.  No party again for him this year because of Covid.  His mummy is 7 month's pregnant, and she doesn't want to take any risks because of baby.  

So, onto the card for this challenge.

The option for this time, was something green, so I chose this card.

I actually made this card using items from The Papeterie Monthly Kit.  The green on the card is actually greener than it appears in the photo,  but I think it still meets the brief.

It's over to you again, you can enter your card over at Creatalicious Challenges blogspot

That's all for now, I'll be back soon!  Take care until then.
