One Stop Craft Challenge - Christmas Love

Hello there! The theme over at One Stop Craft Challenge this week is Christmas love, a great theme for those special family cards. Here's one I've made for one of my siblings:



It's hard to see in this photo (which was taken on my iPhone), but the sentiment says "with love at Christmas" and has two little hearts that I've filled with glitter.

One Stop Craft Challenge - Nikki's Sketch

Nikki has set us a fantastic sketch for this week's challenge over at One Stop. Here's my take on it:




I quite like the simplicity of this card, but now that I look at it in the photo, I keep noticing that the ribbon is squinty - may have to try and fix it!

One Stop Craft Challenge - Snowflakes

Hello again my lovelies. I'm here to show you my card for the latest challenge over at One Stop. This week Paula has set us the theme of snowflakes:



I think I've discovered a pattern for my Christmas cards this year. These wonderful My MInd's Eye die-cuts make the perfect focal points, and these cards were so quick and easy to make that they will be ideal for handing around at work etc., leaving me more time to focus on some extra special cards for my closest friends and family.

Hope you are all well.

Sunday Sketch & Stamp #15 - My Sketch

Time flies when your making cards, and we're up to challenge #15 already at Sunday Sketch & Stamp. My turn to set the sketch, and this is what I came up with:

And here's my card based on it:

I used my Miss Anya stamp and somehow stumbled upon the blue and orange theme. Anya is coloured with my ProMarkers and mounted onto a scalloped circle. The DP came free with a magazine, and I coloured my paper flowers to match everything - enjoy!

Pop over to the challenge blog to see the rest of the great cards, and also to see the great prize you can win.

One Stop Craft Challenge - Halloween

Hello everyone in blogland! Hope you are all well?

Over at One Stop Craft Challenge this week, it's Nikki's turn to set us the challenge, and she has chosen Halloween - I've made this box of treats!



I've coloured my Gorjuss Girl in suitably Halloween-y colours, then cut her out and mounted her using my Nesties. I think this makes a tasty looking box of treats - what do you think?
