A big welcome to all of my lovely followers and visitors to my little space in the crafting world of blogland! I love colouring, drool over every embellishment and love to 'look' at papers (never mind using them) - some are just TOO good to use lol. I hope you enjoy your little wander through my creative world and would love to feel that I may have inspired some of you in some small way. Happy Crafting to you all and I hope you will stop by again soon!

Lacy Sunshine Challenge #8 - No Squares Allowed

Hey all - I'm back with my second post of the day!  

It's time for another fresh challenge over at Lacy Sunshine and, for this next fortnight the theme is 
No Squares Allowed

Our images this time are showcasing Heather Valentin's brand new, adorably cute animals and I was lucky enough to be sent the most gorgeous 'Sabrina Smilodon' to play with.  You can find this little cutie, along with lots more brand new digis, at Heather's shop HERE -  The Official and Only Authorized Shop for Heather's Images


How cute?? Super duper cute I'd say :)

I created an easel card and then cut the corners with my fancy corner scissors.  My backing papers are Kanban Animal Print, which I have had in my stash for a pretty long time but which I thought would suit Sabrina perfectly!  The sentiment is also Kanban and says 'Enjoy Your New Pad' - very apt too I thought :)


The lace and ribbon are from my stash.  The beautiful pearl brad is from The Hobby House and the cute little buttons are Dovecraft.  


I coloured little Sabrina up with Copics and inked the whole area around her.  The little butterfly on her nose inspired me to add a butterfly next to her - so I die-cut a 'tiger' butterfly and attached.  I'm telling you, that must be the biggest butterfly she ever did see ..... ha ha!

Well, I hope you'll flutter on over to see the fabulous creations made by my fab teamies and we'd love to see what you create with our theme this time!

I'd like to enter Sabrina into the following:
