Teddy With Balloons

Leigh from Happileigh Scrappin' has given us a gorgeous freebie over at CDAC of this gorgeous teddy with balloons. I have used the current sketch for challenge #90 at the Sweet Stop for layout of the card.

The image has been coloured using Promarkers and I used the blender pen to add a bit of texture to the fur. I have added the I and the U to the balloons with a marker and the little heart is a bubble sticker from Paperchase.

Th backing paper is from a Bo Bunny magazine freebie. The gold and brown scroll paper is a textured flock wrapping paper from Paperchase. It will of course in this household never be used as wrapping paper, it's far too lush for that. I have matted the image and the flock paper on a muted gold cardstock. I have added grossgrain ribbon, a wooden heart coloured gold with a metallic marker and added a couple of Papermania heart buttons with a bit of pink twine knotted in them.

If you like the look of the teddy pop on over to CDAC and sign up to our group. Leigh also has a freebie still available on the Happilieigh Scrappin' Challenge blog and we would love to see you enter the current challenge.

Happileigh Scrappin' #6

Hello everybody peeps. It's Monday and that means it is time for another challenge at Happileigh Scrappin'.

Thanks very much to everyone who joined in with the blog hop last week. It was a great way for you to meet us the new Design Team and it was lovely to receive such warm comments from you.

Leigh has changed the challenge slightly so it is easier for people to enter.

The challenge rules are changing.
You may now use any image from any artist to enter in the challenge. (Inappropriate images will be withdrawn)
You will receive 1 entry point for your entry.
If you use a Happileigh Scrappin' image you will receive an extra entry point.
The winners will now be chosen randomly.
There will still be 1st, 2nd and 3rd place drawings.

Leigh has posted a photo up on the challenge as an inspiration. I hope we will see more people entering the challenges. Leigh is very generous with her freebies and her designs are lovely to work with so hop on over and join in the fun :)

My card was made with the Kasey Elbows on Pillow image and I have used Promarkers to colour her. It was a very rare occasion for me in that I had coloured the image before I chose the paper. Very unusual for me I went straight to this paper and it was a perfect match. Don't you just love it when that happens? I used the latest sketch #48 over at Truly Scrumptious for the layout. She's not dreaming of summer but definitely thinking of someone :)

The base card is a scalloped edge K & Co which has glitter spots and lines on it. It is very feint in the photo but much more visible in the flesh. The backing paper is a magazine freebie by Bo Bunny and the 'Thinking of You' sentiment vellum is another hoarded item from Craftwork Cards. I had a great value pack of vellum from them years ago in the sale and have hardly used any. In the spirit of my New Years Resolution I am cracking open that stash.

The ribbon and bow are Papermania, the turquoise ribbon was just a scrap in my stash, the pearls are by Kanban from a QVC kit and the little butterfly was on a piece of kids jewellery from Claire's Accessories. I love having a mooch in their sales as you can sometimes get some smashing charms for pennies. They sell their broken jewellery off in bargain bins and they are great for cardmaking.

Merry Christmas Puddykat

I made a card to match the tag I did for the Crafty Cardmakers Challenge on Monday. I had printed the image a few times and had coloured it at the same time so I just need to make it up into a card. I added a green patterned paper from Bo Bunny and the sentiment is Craftwork Cards, both were magazine freebies. I added a Papermania snowflake brad to anchor the gold thread and the bow is from my long forgotten stash.

Sparkle

I made this card using another of the Christmas decorations I bought from ASDA a few weeks ago. It is so glittery and has silver sequins on it too, definitely blinged up :)

I used the last of the Bo Bunny paper from my last card and added clear irridescent snowflakes with a spot of silver Stickles in the centre and some fabric holographic snowflakes from Ebay with large Paperchase gems in the centre.

Let It Snow


Well blooming hell, the sentiment on this card is apt at the moment isn't it? We have had loads of snow in the UK and poor old Scotland especially has been very badly hit. It has been really funny seeing my buddies on Facebook uploading some gorgeous photos of snow and icicles and someone said 'oh is it snowing, I'll just check Facebook'. I thought that was great as even when the weather were saying an area would be clear of snow, you could rely on your mates telling you otherwise. These last few days we have had freezing fog and the last of the snow we have had is lingering but everything is completely white with frost. Looks like everything has had a sprinkle of Glamour Dust and looks quite beautiful. Trouble is it is also combined with very, very low temperatures LOL

This card has been made using the wordart made by Bethany at Elegant Word Art. She is so blooming talented and so very generous with her freebies. I luvs Bethany soo much and follow her blog every day, laugh with her and even cry with her.

Anyhoo, I printed the Wordart quite big and matted it onto dark blue shimmer card to match the base of the card. The patterned paper is a Bo Bunny one that came free with a magazine. The silver holographic snowflakes are from Ebay and have a large Paperchase blue gem on them. The clear irridescent snowflakes are from a christmas garland decoration that I took apart to use for cards and have a spot of Stickles silver glitter glue in the centre and on the letter i. I have also added stardust Stickles to pick out lots of the stars in the 'snow' word.

2 Sketches 4 You Laura #65


After my crafty mojo taking a bit of a sabbatical lately I was gobsmacked to find that I was inspired to make a card using a freebie paper pack that came with Creative Cardmaking magazine on Thursday. It is a pack of papers and stickers by Bo Bunny and I just love how bright they are.

I used a sheet of A4 card for the base and covered it with the red swirly paper. Using Laura's latest sketch #65 over at 2 Sketches 4 You I cut some strips of the matching papers using my new Martha Stewart punch. The sentiment is a sticker that I mounted on card and matted onto black card mat and some of the green paper. This is raised up on 3d foam.

The ribbon is from DCWV and the little jingle bell is from my stash.

I can't tell you how good it is to be enjoying crafting again :), it's been a long time.......
