Here Comes Summer

Short and sweet from me today......
This weeks Challenge at Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge is.......Here Comes Summer.
I raided my stash of paper and found some from a Craft Magazine that fits perfectly with this cute Teddy Bea image for the Here Comes Summer Challenge

The image is coloured with Prisma Pencils and Sansador.
Martha Stewart Scallop Dot Border Punch.
I think it needs something else but not sure what really.

Thanks for popping over

Hot Chocolate

Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge this week is Hot Chocolate.  

The image I have used is from The Paper Shelter and  I have coloured it with Copics and added some stickles to make it sparkle.

The Background paper is My Minds Eye and I have also used a Cuttlebug Heart Embossing Folder on some brown cardstock from DCWV.

The Love sentiment I stamped with Versa Mark Bronze Ink.

A very simple card but quite effective I think.

Thanks for looking.

Penny Black Challenge Week 115

Well Hello everyone, it has been a while since I have managed to come and join in the fun.
Work is absolutely crazy at the moment, working stupidly long hours with not much time for me.  I think if I write another list of things to do "today" I might just go mad!!   So I hear you cry why are you making cards if you have so much to do?..........I just had to have a break and so I thought entering a challenge or two could just be what I need.
So I have put together very quickly I hasten to add a card for the challenge over at Penny Black which this week is a sketch.

For my card I used

A white card blank (I even used a pre made card blank to speed up the proces!!!) 5" square.
Betsy Blue image from Penny Black coloured with Promarkers and Copics.  The balloons have been glazed with Glossy Accents.
The background paper is My Minds Eye and the corners punched with MS punch.
Flowers are from my stash with someflower brads for the centres.
The buttons are also from my stash.

I am entering this card into the Penny Black Challenge and the Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge

Thanks for looking.
Hope you are all ok and I will try and catch up with what you have all been creating soon.
