Happy Birthday Dad!

I managed some more colouring at the weekend and made this for my Dad's birthday today :)
Hope he likes it as it is a bit cute for a man!  Oh well it's the thought that counts....

There isn't much to say about the card really...image coloured with Polychromo pencils on kraft card stock.  Stitched square die from Lil inker
Sentiment from Craftwork cards.
Twine from stash.

Hope you have a good day whatever you are up to..and if by any chance it is your Birthday too have a good one. 
Happy Birthday Dad!

Winter Wonderland DT - Butterflies

Morning crafters....Happy Friday!  These weeks are whizzing by again! Friday already.......
I really can't get into crafting mode at the moment at all so apologies for not being around and visiting you all, I keep trying but it's just not happening at the moment :(




Now this weeks challenge at Winter Wonderland is
Butterflies
so you just need to add some butterflies on your creations, on patterned paper, image or you can use them as embellishments
It can be a non Christmas creation so hope you can join us.

We are lucky enough to have two fab sponsors 
The first one is

Marianne Design

with this fab prize

and the second one is

 Delicious Doodles

 who will donate 4 digi images the winner's choice.

We had the chance to use an image from Delicious Doodles for our DT makes......mine is ultra CAS but it was great to colour and made me think of Spring.

You can find the image here for £1.25

Coloured with pencils and then added ribbon and twine along with a sentiment! Simples!

Have a great day and hope you can pop over and see what the rest of the team came up with here

Ready Teddy Go saying Goodbye for a while...

Morning to you all in blogland...

Hope you are al doing ok.

I am here this morning to share my mid way reminder inspiration for Ready Teddy Go but also to say that it has been a hard decision to make but Ready Teddy Go challenge will be having a break for a while. Hopefully this is not the end of Ready Teddy Go but we need to take a break re assess where we are and maybe re instate the blog at a later stage.   This is therefore the last challenge from us for a while at least.......If we can make it all work we will be back again soon.

So for our last challenge the theme is New Beginnings.....remember you must have a teddy/bear as the main image and you can enter up to 4 times.  Any cards that do not have a teddy will not be included for the winners prize.

We have a fantastic sponsor this month which is the Hobby House who are offering a £10 voucher to spend in store for our winner.

For my card I have used a very cute LOTV image called Playtime Puppy 

The image is coloured with Polychromo pencils

Ribbon from Hobbycraft

Twine from stash

Sentiment - Craftwork Cards

Thanks for stopping by and for your lovely comments.  

I have really lost my MOJO at the moment so not much to share here at the moment.

Have a good day.
