Another Daisy May!

Wanted to make something a wee bit different so made this little handbag for a friends daughter who is going to be 8.Just used a basic a5 card, cut slanted sides and creased a few folds at the bottom so it will stand up. Used gg board to make the handles and closing diamond. I made a little envelope with a bit of glitter inside and a little card for her to write a birthday wish on. This is for four challenges:

1. Allsorts - something for a child

2. Digital Tuesday - white, purple and gold or silver

3. Crafty Creations - some metal, or metallic

4. Creative Inspirations - a pocket

Papers - c&c

Image - Daisy May

Borders - tonic studios punch system and ribbon from stash

Medium - promarkers and stickles

Pinky

Embellishments - prima flower

Christmas Pocket

The challenge over at ABC is H for HIDDEN. My little tag is hidden in the pocket I created behind the main picture. This card is for a man whose birthday falls on Christmas day so the card had to cover both occasions. The challenge at Crafty Creations is SNOW, so this snowy scene suits that perfectly. Over at Roses on Paper their challenge is Christmas. And over at Charisma Cardz they want Merry and Bright, and GLITTER ME SILLY is the challenge at Cute Card Thurday.

Card is black gloss, I stamped scary words on the orange card and coloured the house with promarkers. The pumpkin was printed directly onto orange card and then again onto green card for the leaves.

Fairy-Nuff Daisy May!!!

I got a lovely email from Linnie last week offering me a DT spot on her lovely Daisy May challenge blog. The only thing stopping me from accepting was my darn computer lol. So here I am with my first card and what a lovely challenge to join them with FAIRIES. I couldn't resist this little cutie. I hadn't been over to Cute Daisy May Images for a few weeks but boy was I in for a surprise...The amount of new images she has added is unbelievable! You have got to get other there. The value for money is excellent and with digis (I am such a big fan of digis) you can have it any size you want! Hope you all get time to enter the challenge this week, I would love to see what you all come up with.

For my card I used;

image - DAISY MAY sheet 62

Coloured with - copics

Everything else from stash.

Over at Crafty Creations they have a challenge for ALL SHADES OF PALE, which I think, suits this card perfectly.

Over at Creative Inspirations their challenge is CHRISTMAS IN OCTOBER which is perfect for Cute Daisy May!

Priscillastyles,Crafty Creations and ABC challenge

I am really loving the sketches over at Midnight Madness. They are always that little bit different and encourage you to try something different. I used this one to make a Christmas card. The image is called Angel of the Shepherds and I got it from Scottish borders Stamping company. I have had it for ages but this is the first time using it. I coloured it with copics, cut it out and matted onto embossed mirri board. I cut stars on my circut schoolbook cart and added peeloff lines. The paper came from my Artylicious Cd. The HOPE is a rub on from DCWV.
I am entering this into
Crafty Creations as well which asks for EMBOSSING and
ABC Challenge which ask for DIECUTS.

3 in 1 card

As I am sitting typing this post a layer of cement is slowly descending on top of everything in my craft room even though the door is tightly shut! The builders are in today to cut two windows into my living room and you would not believe the amount of dust, I am practically eating the stuff. But anyway as i could get up to very little else only tea making and crafting i have got a few challenges covered today. This card fits with Passion For Promarkers where I followed the sketch and coloured image with lots of yellows, greens and pinks. The three flower buttons cover the challenge at Crafty Creations where the theme is BUTTONS, and the challenge at ABC is Z for ZERO EMBELLISHMENTS. The papers are from daisy and dandelion pad, I glittered the balloons and layered everything on yellow card.

Crafty Creations #24

Over at Crafty Creations the challenge theme is TRAVEL. I made this card for a friend who is going to Australia for a few months. I used a scan of a map of Australia, penny black image I got from a swap and added two borders of suitcases. I added an Australian flag to the suitcase.

Crafty Creations #20

Another Father's Day card for a keen gardener which suited the challenge perfectly over at Crafty Creations where the theme is HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW. I used a background scene from Daisy Company, a JN image of gardener and a few embellishments from my stash. I added some colour to the background using copics.
