so happy.

Hellooooo! Well I bet you weren't expecting to see me today! I have just joined the Stamp With Fun design team and today is my debut!

So this week, we have a summer theme! You just can't beat a summer wedding and so that is what I chose.

Papers: The Girl's Paperie ~ Kitch.

Image: fast becoming one of my favourites Magnolia Wedding Tilda. I coloured her with copics and stickles.

I've used Spellbinders dies for the circles and circle scallops. Added loads of Frantage. Loving that right now!

I added a vintage key. First I frantaged it, but didn't like the effect. So I sanded it down and then rubbed on some metallic paint in different shades until I had the look I wanted. Love that some of the frantage still shows through!

The wooden clock is by Prima and got the frantage treatment too.

Some handmade flowers.

I am entering this in at the following challenges:

• S for stitching (I have machine stitched around my circles) ~ ABC Challenge
• polka dots ~ City Crafter 
• anything goes ~ Crafts and Me, Crafty Calendar Challenge, The Crazy Challenge
• texture ~ Crafty Creations Challenges 
• dies & punches ~ Cute Card Thursday 
• bingo board (I have flower, free and diecut) ~ Fussy & Fancy Challenge 
• special occasions ~ Tilda's Town
• wedding ~ Totally Tilda
• vintage summer card with butterflies ~ Vintage Udfordring

Thank you for looking.

Good morning and a happy Monday morning to you! First day back at work today and as I write this on Sunday evening, I am not. looking. forward. to. it.

Oh well, I take comfort in the fact that time goes by so quickly, that it will soon be the holidays again :)

Today we have our first new challenge of 2013 at Cupcake Craft Challenges, which is monochromatic blue (but you can use different colours for skin and hair).

Again, I've used the papers from The Girl's Paperie ~ Vintage Whimsy collection. I've put them away now, I promise!

Image: Saturated Canary ~ Isabella, coloured with copics.

The doily on which she is sitting was cut with an Xcut Doily die. Gorgeous!

I am entering this in at the following challenges:

• song inspiration (I have Seal - Kiss from a Rose) ~ Saturated Canary Challenge
• anything goes ~ Stampin' for the Weekend
• out with the old (I have used old papers) ~ The Corrosive Challenge

ride through life with me

Hello and a good morning to you all. Firstly, let me wish you all a Happy New Year! Unfortunately, mine hasn't got off to a flying start as I have been sick for the last 7 days and I'm getting a bit bored of it now! No doubt it will cleared by the time I have to go back to work on Monday!

Well, today at Crafts 4 Eternity we have a challenge of new technique, product or style. I have gone for new cutting dies and a punch and no I didn't get them for Christmas, I had to buy them myself! So a special treat for me:)

Apologies for the awful photos, I have never known it be so dark and all day long too!!

The image is by Crafty Secrets and I've used Spellbinders ~ Romantic Rectangles cutting dies.

You can also see the Martha Stewart ~ Doily Lace which is now my favourite punch.

Papers: The Girls' Paperie ~ Vintage Whimsy. Loving these!

I am entering this in at the following challenges:

• new stash ~ Tuesday Taggers

• new something ~ Simon Says 
• anything goes ~ Papertake Weekly   

Thank you for looking.
