Kaboodle Blog, Creative Card Crew and Pink Gem

Hi everyone, haven't been about much as I am having ubber problems with my computer. I went to turn it on as usual yesterday and it refused to comply! Can't access any files, can't run my virus scanner, can't get on line!!!! I am now knee deep in a box of kleenex so if anyone has any handy tips please let me know. Anyway I had this card prepared and on camera to post yesterday but didn't get the chance. So I am now doing it from hubby's computer. I followed the sketch at Kaboodle, its also for Creative Card Crew CELEBRATION card and another entry to Janet's challenge at Pink Gem. Hope I am back with better news soon.

Crafts4Eternity Recipe Challenge #1

This week over at C4E Michele has given us a whole new look and a brand new recipe to the challenges. Each week we will have a sketch to follow but she will also include a recipe and this week it is:
FOLLOW THE SKETCH
USE A PUNCH
A KNOT OR BOW.
For my card this week I used papers from DCWV, cuttlebug snowflake folder, image is from Pink Gem, coloured with promarkers and copics. I cut the large snowflake on my cricut and punched the small snowflake from a mini punch. The three pink snowflakes are stickers matted on to card and cut round. I added a lot of sparkle to the image and snowflakes. Ribbon is from my stash which I knotted. This week Michele has a lovely goodie bag up for grabs from her shop. She has so many beautiful products in her shop and you can find it here. There are also lots of monthly challenges going on there too! So pop over and have a look at the lovely inspiration from the other DT members along with Michele's beautiful card. I absolutely loved this sketch and will be using it again and again.
I am also entering this card into
PINK GEM - use one of their images
A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR - Christmas
CREATIVE CARD CREW - all that sparkles.

Creative Card Crew

The challenge this week at Creative card Crew is to decorate the inside of the card. This is an A4 size card. I used papers from DCWV front and inside. The images are from here and the cat one is Mo's. Coloured images with promarkers and copics. Used a circle sentiment from stash and layered onto a flower shape. Inside I typed out a verse and boxed it, cut it out and layered onto a sheet of matching backing paper. I added the leftovers from the front page and cut out some sunflowers.

Passion for ProMarkers,Creative Card Crew and Daisy may

This card is a thank you card for a lady who taught her friend to swim in her 60's. Thought the cute Daisy May image fitted perfectly. I used the colours from PFP which were Cool Aqua and Pastel pink along with their sketch. I am also entering this in the challenge over at CCC where GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN. The papers are from DCWV, flowers, leaves and glitter from stash.

Stamps and Smiles sketch challenge 25 and Creative Card Crew

I just adore this lovely sketch from The Fresh Batch It was such a dream to work with that this is my second time entering this challenge! I used papers and stamps from Patchwork Pals, coloured with pms. Punched the flowers and leaves are cut from circut, added a bow and cloth flower from my stash. All paper was matted onto deep pink card. The challenge over at Creative Card Crew has a theme of GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN so I think having a nice little swing is perfect fun.

Wedding Card

After.....

Before........

Sorry for the poor photo, its sunny here but I still couldn't get a good pic! I think maybe its the blue papers. Anyway this card covers 4 challenges, which I am very happy about. After posting this I thought it needed something like a church so sketched one in.
1. I followed the lovely sketch over at MovingAlongwiththetimes
2.Digital Tuesday where I followed the recipe of 1 digi, 2 papers and 3 embellishments.
3.Creative Card Crew where they want you to create a scene and
4. Cute Daisy May where they want 3 of something.
The digi image is from Cute Daisy May and I just thought it would be lovely as a wedding card. I coloured it with pms and copics, used papers from K & Co with silver mirri card, ribbons and flowers from stash, leaves are peeloffs coloured with pms. The circle is a digi stamp from a C4E kit.

The Sweet Stop and Creative Card Crew

Made this card using the lovely sketch at TheSweetStop . I used papers from DCWV Christmas selection, some white card from stash and the lovely Sugar Nellie stamp called Christmas Kisses. Image was coloured with pms. I added some hearts with kisses and hugs in white ink pen. The ribbons I added are for the theme over at CreativeCardCrew. I tied a bow in lovely spotty red ribbon I have had from last year and added the little cut off to the wording.

Wedding Card

Went for blues for this wedding card. Used K & Co papers, some butterfly stickers, whiff of joy carriage stamp and some leaves and a belt buckle. The pale blue paper looks plain but it does have a lovely cream spot on it. It hopefully covers two challenges.

2.Creative Card Crew where the theme is WEDDINGS.

Thanks for looking.

Three in one challenges!

Well I hope I have covered three challenges. At FF they want to see A CITRUS TWIST. My colours don't look citrus in this photo but they are really, the blue is really vivid with swishes of lime green through it and the check has a lime green in it as well and of course red in the card. At
Creative card Crew they want GEOMETRIC PATTERNS which is the cheque paper and the sketch I followed is from
Mojo Monday.
