Party Time Tuesday Challenge

That Challenge at Party Time Tuesdays is "Anything Goes" so..........here goes!!!

This card has been made using an image from Mo Manning.  I think this wee image is soooo cute and she looks all shy and coy.   I have used Nitwits papers and some gems from my stash.  I stamped the sentiment and used a Spellbinders Die to mount it up.  I put the wee figure on foam pads to make her stand out a bit more.  As usual, image was coloured using promarkers.

I'm off to make more cards - I have started my Christmas Cards - so much for my New Year Resolution which was to make a Christmas Card every week! Thanks for stopping and taking a wee look. Please leave some comments, I like seeing them!

Baby Girl Card

 This is a card I  made using a beautiful wee digital stamp from Wee Stamps.  I think this is such a beautiful image and I saw it on a card on Pinterest, and I just had to track it down!!  I was so happy when I found it and I made this card straight away.

I used the following to make the card

Papers from My Mind's Eye - Lost & Found Collection

Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts

Martha Stewart Hearts punch

Spellbinders Die for leaves

Magnolia Doo-Hickey Swirl

Pearls from stash

I have just discovered a site called The Paper Shelter and their stamps are amazing!  You don't just get a digital stamp, you get backing papers, and a coloured image as well for inspiration!!  I have bought some stamps, and I am off to colour them now! They are having a Design Team Call so I have decided to apply. I've managed to be on 2 design teams for my Scrapbooking, and I would love to be on a Design Team for cards too. Fingers crossed, but I know they will have lots and lots of applicants.  

I'm off to do some colouring now!  I'll be back soon!  Thanks for stopping for a visit!

Love U Elmo!

 This layout was based on the sketch below from Let's Scrap. 7-6-11  Hadley loves his cuddly toys and especially Elmo.  He used to fight with Dylan his twin brother as they both wanted him, so when I went over for a visit I took another Elmo with me.  Dylan no longer seems to want Elmo, so wee Hadley just cuddles them both!  They even sit and watch t.v. together!  I used T.P.C. Studio, Transportation papers and brtads and the ELmo Stickers were form Jolee's boutique.

 This layout is based on another Let's Scrap sketch No 7-13-11  This shows Dylan using his toys in an alternative way!  He is such a cheeky wee thing and these photos just show him at his best!!  I used 3 bugs in a rug, Snips n Snails paper and stickers and the buttons (lots of them and I don't know why!)  were from my stash.

Scooter Magnolia and Meeting Thomas

I am sharing this  Magnolia Card with you, which I have just finished.  I used My Mind's Eye Papers called Sunshine.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the bow is made with  ribbon from Bazzill.

I am entering this card in a challenge

Tilda's Town Challenge which is  "Anything Goes"

We went to Brechin last weekend, and Jackson got to see Thomas the Tank Engine and we had a ride on him. It was so  so busy!  Lots of little kiddies with their parents, all trying to get photos with Thomas.  I am sharing a couple with you.

Scrapbook Magazine Design Team

I received wonderful news recently, when I was asked to be on the design team for Scrapbook Magazine.  I was so excited and I squealed and squealed and couldn't wait to tell my family!!  I had to submit 4 layouts for their "Meet the Design Team" feature and here are the layouts I selected for them. I have had to wait until the Magazine was out in the shops before I could share my news with you.

.

 

This one shows Dylan helping his Daddy to mow the lawn.I love the way that he really looks as if he is working hard, and his dirty wee face is so cute!

 

 This layout shows Jackson in his baby bath, before he moved to the big bath. He loves to splash and you can see the water he is splashing up in the air, and he is not the slightest bit afraid.

This layout shows my husband Eric, when we were on holiday in Egypt. He got speaking to one of the locals, and he offered to take him out into the desert on a quad bike. He had an amazing time, and they we right off the beaten track away from all the touristy stuff.

Lastly, this layout shows my Mum in photos taken around 60 years ago  I thought it unusual that 2 of them were taken when my mum was walking down a busy street.  In the 2nd one, my Granny is in the background. unfortunately, I don't know where they were taken, which is a shame, as it would have been lovely to put that information on the layout.

Well, there you go, my exciting news.  I can't wait to see what they have lined up for me and will share my layouts with you once they have appeared in the magazine.

Enjoy Every Moment

The theme over at Mo's Challenge is "Something Sweet".  This makes it quite easy, as ll Mo's images are sweet! The difficult thing is deciding which one to choose! LOL! I have settled for this wee image called So Funny.  She is  having a fit of the giggles and her wee dog giving her such a look! I love it!!

I used papers from Nitwits which were free from a magazine.  Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and tied them together with pink ribbon.  Lastly I added some card candy which again was free!  Off to do some scrapping now, have a layout on my desk which just needs to be all stuck down.  Back soon!

Freebie Stamp

I have been so so busy recently and have not had the time to blog. Hopefully I will get more time now and I can get some posting done!  I used my spellbinders die to cut out the sandcastle, bucket & spade, shells and starfish.

This was a freebie digi stamp from Crafty Sentiments and I was going to enter this card in their challenge, but I have missed the deadline! Never mind, maybe the next time! LOL!!

 

This is a card using a stamp from Prairie Fairy.  I love her cute images, they are so cheeky!  Even the dog has a cheeky face!

I'm off now to try and do more crafting - I'll be back soon!!
