May new releases

Hello everyone

Time for the second instalment from the DT on the May new releases, and aren't they just adorable!

Something for everyone there....

I've used Helicopter as my image


Coloured using copics and die cut into a scalloped circle with distress ink edges.  The papers are from a Joy crafts pad, with some dark green mats and layers.  Button and string from my stash.

The blog and Facebook are filled with more inspiration from my talented teamies, and don't forget anything you make with an all dressed image can be entered into out 'anything goes' blog challenge.

Thanks for dropping by - see you all soon

All dressed up challenge May 2018

Hello bloggers

Its time once again for the latest All Dressed up challenge over on our blog.  You have a chance to win three of Wendy's fantastic images from Etsy store here .  Here's my inspiration using baseball bear



I took two 6 by 6 cards, and cut the front off one.  I scored at 2 1/2 inches and 5 inches.  Then folded to create the front fold.  Using the short edge (just under 1 inch wide) and attached this to the second card.
The papers were from Etsy.  I printed and die cut the bear onto a circle, before colouring him with copics.  the sentiment is computer generated.
All finished with some die cut stars.

I just love this bear - he's so cool!

New baby girl


Hello everyone!

Popping in today to share a baby card for m friend who has just had a new baby girl.  It was basically just an excuse to buy another Lili of the Valley stamp from the new releases! ha ha.





The image and sentiment are from LoTV. I didn't want it to be soft pinks, so chose a bolder pink colour.  She was coloured with Copics.  The card blank easel is a crafters companion die, with a die cut oval and die cut baby washing line.  I added a tag with some hearts stamped onto it in a beige ink.  The flags were hand cut and it was finished with flowers from my stash and some die cut leaves, with a ribbon bow, some pearls and the obligatory glitter!  All of the papers are digi ones from Pink Petticoat.

My friend was delighted with it, I hope you like it too!

I'd like to enter this into:
Allsorts challenge - in the pink top 5!
crazy colour challenge - anything goes with coloured image
Polkadoodles - anything goes
Aud sentiments - cute with a sentiment

Thanks for stopping in and reading my ramblings.  please leave me a message if you stop here as I much prefer your messages in my email inbox, than those selling me junk!

See you soon

light up my life

Hi everyone

Another Tiddlyinks make today using 'light up my life'


I printed her off twice and layered her up, colouring the top layer only, to give her some dimension.  She was coloured using a combination of Copics and Promarkers, with a bit of stickles added to her hairband.

The flowers are from my stash, and the backing papers are from a trim craft pad called 'Wallflower'.  I stamped two sentiments, one is from LoTV and the other a waltzing mouse sentiment set (I think... I've used them so many times I've ruined the packaging and thrown it away!)

All finished with more stickles and some blue pearl gems.




Thanks for stopping by to take a look, I'd love to see new followers or any comments you make!
See you all soon
