WOW at Totally Ladybug Tuesday and Some News!!!!

Totally Ladybug Tuesday is one of the challenges that I try to join in with as much as possible and I saw that last week they had a call for Guest Designers for December.   I entered a card and gave it a go and guess what...........yes I have been chosen woohooo how cool is that!!!!!

This week they have another great challenge WOW - White on White which Pam has chosen.
So as I am still off work with time to play I have made a card.

The stamp is from Ladybug Crafts Ink called Cupcake Cutie Cherry on Top and is one of my favourites.
The image is coloured with Copics and added Glossy Accents on the Cherry and Stickles on the Icing.  Has anyone else had a problem with Silicone glue making marks through the smoooth cardstock.  I have noticed on this image this morning that there are some grey patches and can only think it is the glue :(
Embossing Folders used for the background
Martha Stewart Border Punch
White Ribbon from stash
Sentiment from Ladybug Crafts Ink.

Well its my last day off today before work tomorrow. I was looking forward to Mike being off too but he has ha to work today :(
I do feel like I have had a lovely rest and ready for the final 3 weeks of term......
Have a good day and I will be back tomorrow with more cuteness and new challenges at Forever Friends & Co and Ready Teddy Go.

Sunday Spotlight on Teddy Bo and Catching Up

So the journey home from Whitby was pretty uneventful.  We did however have a lovely stop off to see my Mum and Dad and of course Libbee. It was a great way to break up the journey :)

While we were away I had an email from Nicole at Teddy Bo to say that they would like to Spotlight me and some of my cards this Sunday over on their blog........How cool is that!?  Why not pop over and see my cards :)  I am so happy, Thanks Nicole and all at Teddy Bo Towers.

I have a lot of catching up to do with my cards especially for the Christmas Card Club.  Before I went away I completed 3 big orders for Christmas Cards so I can now concentrate on playing catch up.  The lovely Clare challenged us to make a set of four cards.......a great challenge indeed.
For my cards I have used Mini Rudolph images from Pink Petticoat coloured with Copics and highlighted with Stickles and Glossy Accents.
Paper - Free with Quick Cards Magazine.
Coloured Gems and Snowflake Punch

Thanks again for a great challeneg Clare....sorry I missed the deadline.....Must Try Harder LOL!!!
Have a great day.
Off to catch up on the washing and then more crafting.
