Pawsitively awesome


I brought some new water colour pencils and decided to colour up this cutie and her dog.  As you know by now I've never stuck to conventional colours.  With all these new stamp and die sets, it makes it easy to leave out the fussy cutting.  I love it.

Happy Days


Howdy wonderful peoples,

I apologize for not getting onto my challenges.  The weeks are flying by real quick and before I know it, I've missed the deadline for them.  I'm finding that I've got some many ideas floating around and not coming out like I want them to whether its colour, theme or just too hard box.

Here's my take on the challenge on http://justusgirlschallenge.blogspot.com.au/



Paper Tray dies - Sunrise
Memory Box dies - happy, hot air ballon, Wide open spaces studio,
IO dies - birds
Little B dies -  Hot air ballon
Ranger's Alteration alph dies

I die cut the word "happy" 3 times and glued them on top of each other to give some height.  Chalked the sunrise to give it some colour.

Mama Bear Love

Ello me lovlies,
I hope your weekend has started with a bang of the awesome kind.  Another simple card using Mama Elephant stamp and die.  The images in this set are so cute and adorable.  I use water colour pencils to colour the image and then a paint brush to blend.  The love was cut using the Memory Box die I have.  Back ground cardstock is from the Prima range.

Bear Hugs

Hello wonderful people
I know I've be AWOL for a long time.  I have been crazy busy with family and exercise.  I promise I have been making heaps of cards for other challenges on my FB craft sites.  So apologize for not posting them on here.  So I thought I better start filling up my pages on here and get hopping on to the challenges I love doing here.

Now here's my latest card I did tonight for the challenge over on
http://tuesdaythrowdown.blogspot.com.au/2015/08/tuesday-throwdown-256-sketch-challenge.html


I used the stamp and die set from Mama Elephant (Bear Hugs).  The images and sayings are just so adorable and so versatile.  The card stock is from SU, I got a pack of this ds paper from a scrap camp I attended on the weekend gone.  I had so much fun with the ladies laughing and managing to get some cards done.  :)  I chalked the edges of the patterned paper with chalk inks.  Bears were coloured with SU markers and then an aqua brush was used to blend the inks.  Button, straw and glitter paper to finish off the card.

Thinking of You


Ello beautiful people,
Been MIA with so much happening with the family.  I've managed to get a stall at a Sunday market.  The first time was not so good.  The second time round I managed to sell some cards and an old stamp set. Yeahyaaa.  My gf and I thought it would be nice to try and get to the markets once a month and see how we go.
Here's a card I've made that will go nicely into the challenge

Hi everyone,
The weather has turned from Sunny and beautiful to rainy and cool the last couple of days.  Here's a card that's come together better then what I expected.  I wasn't too sure about putting the die onto such a stark backgound, but I love how the colours in the back compliments it perfectly.

Best B'day

Ladies and Gents,

I have to admit I love the colours for this card, fun and cheerful.  I used TE numbers dies to create my background which worked out perfectly to what I was looking for. Spellbinder's Scalloped Circle die; used with Sizzix For the Record2, Documented dies; Elizabeth Craft Birthday die, Pennyblack Best die.  I coloured the cupcake with Copics after using Elizabeth Craft Silk glitter to give that shimmer. Finally washi tape to give the lettering a background border.

Marty's B'day

Hello Beautiful people,
Life is just full on these days and passing by so quickly.  Can you believe the month of March as flown and we're into April.  I was lucky enough to work the craft show last month and boy were we busy for the 3 or the 4 days.  So many new goodies to entice everyone.  I managed to come away with some awesome stuff myself.  I got my hands on this cute stamp set from TE.  Aren't they just too cute...  I got to make this card for a friend turning dirty 30 so he said.  The nite was full of fun and lots of yummy food with super people.

I'lm entering this into the challenge on
