Scribble & Scrap Challenge #17 - Anything Goes

Happy Sunday Everyone!

It's Scribble & Scrap Challenge time again and, as always, it's

ANYTHING GOES!!

Our winner will receive a £15 voucher to spend in the fabulous Scribble & Scrap Store, however, if the winner has used a Scribble & Scrap product, the prize will jump to a very generous £20.  Our Top 3 each get a fabby £5 voucher too!

My card today is showcasing the beautiful Grungy Florals - Pastels paper set.  I used five of the colourways from this fabulous set and layered them into Word to form a kind of patchwork effect.

I also used the papers to form the die-cut banner and die-cut hearts.  I totally love the gorgeous individual fresh colours of these papers and they also look so beautiful together!

My image is Amy from Wee Stamps and is available in digi form HERE.  I coloured this cutie up in Copics, although I haven't listed them all as there were quite a few!! LOL.

The lace and ribbon flower are both from my stash and the pearl string and adhesive pearls can be found at the Hobby House.

I hope you can join us again in our Challenge this time and look forward to having a drool over your fab creations again!  Please check out my DTeamies' fabulous creations too - you won't be disappointed!

Hobby House Inspiration - New Toppers

Hi Everyone - hope you're all keeping well.

It's my turn for a little inspiration today at the Hobby House and, as we have been showcasing the fabulous new toppers this month by Kenny K, Elisabeth Bell and Wee Stamps for our April Challenge, I have kept within the theme of New Toppers and thought I'd share with you this little box I decorated using the adorable Summer Splash toppers by Elisabeth Bell.

How cute is this little lad happily at play with his bucket and spade?

The papers are from Bearly Mine Designs called Patchwork Party.  A list of the fabulous Hobby House embellishments I used can be found HERE

The topper sets have three different designs to play with.  I recently blogged a card HERE using another design from the set and thought I'd share the whole set, which includes a cute door hanger I created using the third design.

I hope you like my little piece of inspiration today and thank you so much for stopping by.

Hobby House Mid Month Challenge Reminder - New Toppers

Good Morning Everyone!  I am actually so very late with this post ...... I thought I'd already scheduled this for Saturday.  Feeling all smug, I've enjoyed my Bank Holiday weekend only to pop on here today and find that I hadn't scheduled at all ..... I hadn't even written up a post to schedule!!! How bad is that?! 

Well, it's here now .... finally ..... and I hope you all had a fabulous Easter indulging in whatever it is that makes you smile.

This is my Mid Month Challenge Reminder for the Hobby House and our theme this month is 

ANYTHING GOES WITH A NEW TOPPER

Have you seen the gorgeous new toppers available at the Hobby House Store?  The new releases are by Elisabeth Bell, Kenny K and Wee Stamps and, for this Challenge, we'd like you to use one of the new toppers to create anything you wish with.

My card today is using one of the beautiful Elisabeth Bell - Summer Splash toppers.

I absolutely LOVE the fabulous freshness of these colours, don't you?

My papers are from Bearly Mine Designs called Patchwork Party and the butterfly dies are Joanna Sheen Signature Dies

The flowers, fish charm, ribbon, lace, pearl string, adhesive pearls, button and rhinestone sparkler can all be found at the Hobby House

We have been blessed with so many beautiful entries in the last challenge and so look forward to seeing your wonderful creations for this one.

Mi Ran has fabulous prizes for our Winner and Top 3 and you can check out the info plus the rules HERE.

Today I'm showcasing the very gorgeous Blossom Breeze.

I thought I'd make a candle this time seeing as I haven't made one for quite a while now :)

I absolutely loved colouring this little lady up, what with her beautiful, flowing locks and gorgeous, pleated dress.  The Copic colours are:

Skin:  E000, E00, E11

Hair:  C0, C1, C3, C5, C7

Dress:  B60, BV00, BV02, BV04, V12

After transferring her onto the candle, I added rhinestone gems from my stash and got a little carried away with the super pretty rhinestone flowers, which can be found HERE

This beautiful image is one of many of Mi Ran's adorable designs and you can find them all in her shop HERE - all are digital stamps and available for instant download.

I hope you like my little make today and would love for you to pop on over and enter into the Challenge and check out my DTeamies amazing creations whilst you're there :)

Scribble & Scrap Challenge #16 - Anything Goes

Morning everyone!  I hope you are all keeping well and happy!  I've been pretty quiet on here lately and must apologise for not getting around to visiting everyone.

It's challenge time again at Scribble & Scrap and, as always, it's

ANYTHING GOES!!

Our winner will receive a £15 voucher from the Scribble & Scrap Shop, however, if the winner has used a Scribble & Scrap product, the prize will be raised to a magnificent £20!!! Also, our Top 3 get a very generous £5 each to spend too.

My card is showcasing the beautiful digital papers available as instant download in the Scribble & Scrap Shop - Grungy Florals - Naturals and Grungy Florals - Pastels

I layered the different papers in Word to design my background layout onto just one sheet.  If you are a little limited on time, printer ink or adhesives, then this is a perfect way to get a gorgeous effect in double quick time. I matted onto Kraft cardstock ready to embellish.

I inked the Wee Stamps - It's a Boy topper with versa magic chalk to give it a creamy effect, along with the sentiment from my stash.  The mixture of my embellishments can be found at the Hobby House and Wild Orchid Crafts

We had some amazing entries over the last fortnight and hope you'll join us again this time to be in with a chance to win the fabby prize!  Head on over to see the beautiful creations from my DTeamies and post your entries whilst you're there :)

I'm heading off to IKEA now to do a bit of craft room storage shopping ...... eeeek!! Excited muchly!!

Artbymiran Challenge #3 - ANYTHING GOES

Good Morning lovely peeps and a Happy Friday to you all.

Can you believe it?  We're already on our 3rd challenge at Artbymiran Challenge.  Once again we had the most beautiful entries into our 2nd challenge - each and every one of them such stunning works of art!  It's a real pleasure drooling over your fab creations and I hope you'll join us again this time!  As always, it's ANYTHING GOES!!

Mi Ran has an amazing prize for our Winner and Top 3 and you can check out the info plus the rules HERE.

My card today is showcasing the ever beautiful Venus

Isn't she a little beauty?  I just adore Mi Ran's images and you can find plenty more at fabulous prices HERE.  They are all digital stamps and available for instant download, so no waiting around twiddling your thumbs!

I got in a bit of a pickle with my colouring on this little girly ..... this was my EIGHTH attempt!!! For some reason at the moment, my Copics are just not playing ball when it comes to colouring skin and so I ended up colouring the majority of her skin with promarkers.  Thankfully, the Copics I used for her hair and dress were much more accommodating and allowed me to do exactly what I'd planned LOL.

My card base was pinched from my mum's stash (thanks mum).  It's from Hunkydory, but, alas, I can't find a link for it so I'm not sure if it has actually been discontinued.  I really hope not as I love the whole effect it gives.  Also, there are nowhere near as many embellishments on it as I normally do as I think the image and card speak for themselves ...... with a few compulsory flowers of course heehee!

Although this is not the best picture taken in the world, I just wanted to show you the side view, which shows the card frame with little Venus nestling comfortably inside.

All of the flowers and that gorgeous flat backed diamond with centre pearl can be found at Wild Orchid Crafts and the beautiful pearl string down the side is from the Hobby House.

I really hope you like my card today and would love for you to pop over to the Challenge and check out my DTeamies' fabulous creations, as well as entering your own whilst you're there :)
