Well hope you are all ok and enjoying the weekend. I have just been catching up with some of the new creations in blog land as I dont seem to have had much chance over the last week or so.
Last weekend I had a great time with my friend Robyn. I stayed over on the friday night and we stayed up until almost 1am crafting the night away and then started again about 9ish the following morning.....it was great.
I managed to colour in quite a few images and today I am making some of them into cards.
The Challenge over at Just Cute Bears & Friends is a sketch.
I used a Marianne Design clear stamp from the Winter set which you can see here. I coloured it with a mixture of Copics and Promarkers and then added Stickles and a glitter gel pen to highlight it.
The background papers are from my stash.
Ribbon is Papermania and the snowflakes made with Martha Stewart and Woodware punches.
Thanks for looking.

Well we have tidied up the garden today and got some more stuff ready to take to the tip......yeah! We are basically preparing to put the house on the market in the new year so the big clear out has already started. I think the craft room clear out will be one of the last things on the list :).
I have made this card for the Bear Necessities challenge over at Just Cute Bears this week. They are looking for clean and simple cards this week and I think this would fits the bill.
Forever Friends stamped image coloured with Copics.
Embossed white card for background. I have inked round the edges of all the cardstock with versamark Gold ink.

Ribbon - From stash.
Enjoy whats left of the weekend.

Another week has flown by............
So what have you all got planned for the weekend, something better than me hopefully. Work is so busy at the moment that I really need to do some work but we will see how much I actually manage to achieve. All I can say is that the good intention is there at least.

The stamp is from Daisy & Dandelion.

Good afternoon to you all....hope the sun is shining on you.
My box below has been inspired by a couple of people firstly Ann-Marie as she has made some beautiful easel card/boxes which you can have a look at on her blog. The other person that inspired me to use the Popcorn Bear stamp was Cherie as she made a great card using the stamp and I thought I should have a go too.
