Special Delivery

Good Afternoon, it a lovely sunny day here but, the wind is awful and apparentally going to get even stronger. My card to share today is for Rainbow Lady's Challenge - Dogs, in recognition of  Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day.  My image is a digi stamp from the new cd from Just Inlined - The Next Big Thing.  There a masses of digi stamps on this cd plus a fair bit of other goodies too.  I'm not particularly good at colouring and have always found animals the most difficult. I have used Promarkers with the fine nibs attached and just drawn lots of little thin lines all over the image with three different colours.  The backing paper is Cuddly Buddley the green and yellow card is Papermania, I stamped Happy Birthday onto the envelope, finished off with Card Candy and the sentiment is computer generated.

Thank you for visiting today

Snowflakes

Good evening, my card today is for the challenge over at Bah Humbug and this week the ladies are asking for Snowflakes.  The image is a stamp that I love and it comes out every year,  it's an old Elusive Images one that I have had quite a long time.  The bp is from Season's Greetings an Artylicious cd, the ribbon is left over from the wedding stationery I made earlier in the year and the snowflakes are from a Cuttlebug die.

I am also entering my card into the challenge at CD Sunday, which gives us a choice of Die Cutting/Yeehaw this week.

I hope you like my card and many thanks very much for stopping by today.

Less is More

Good Afternoon, my card today is for the challenge over at Less is More which is White on White.  I have used white linen finish card, Cuttlebug Daisy embossing folder, Marianne frame and butterfly, the sentiment printed directly from the pc and three crystal gems from my stash.  Although I have have had the butterfly for over a year and the frame for a couple of months this is the first time they have been used, sound familiar to anyone lol.

I hope you are all having a good Sunday, I am off with my laptop to sit in front of the tele to watch Fiddler on the Roof and do a bit of blogging.

A card for Kayla

 

Good Evening, I just wrote my post and then hit the wrong button and lost it aghh!  My card today is for my Grand-daughter, Kayla, who has given up on pink as her favourite colour and now she wants everything to be purple with a bit of green thrown in for good measure.  So I hope she will be pleased with this.  The image is from Pollycraft and coloured with a mixture of Copics and Promarkers, the bp is CuddlyBuddly, the cs is Coredinations, the flower for the stop came from a mixed box of flowers from The Glitter Girls, the punched flowers and leaves are from offcuts of Coredinations, the gems and ribbon came from my stash.  The ribbon was coloured with a Promarker to co-ordinate with the rest of the card.  

My card is for the challenge over at Cute Card Thursday which is a sketch this week.  I am also entering it into the Creative Inspirations Challenge which is Stripes

Many thanks for taking the time to visit and for the comments you leave

Under the Sea

Good Morning All, my card today is for Rainbow Lady's Challenge this week which is 'Ocean Colours of  Blue and Green plus an Initial'.  I have stamped the Clarity image with Adirondack Stream Inkpad, onto a piece of glossy card coloured with alcohol inks, then embossed with Crystal ep.  I used blue and green Stickles on the bubbles.  I have mounted the image onto a piece of  blue Stardream card, which has been Cuttlebugged.  The bp is from a graphics programme and then overstamped with shells, fish and seaweed, again using the Stream inkpad.    These stamps were lying unused and unloved in one of my stamp boxes and I forgot I had them, and  I can't remember the make as I threw the packaging away!  The sentiment is stamped and embossed using a large Papermania alphabet letter and a Dimension Fourth set of words.

Thank you for stopping by and for the lovely comments you have been leaving me.  Beryl x

Back Again!

Hi folks, sorry I have been awol for quite a while, I haven't been feeling too well for about three weeks, but this morning I suddenly started to feel much better and back to normal. Here is my card for this week's Bah Humbug Challenge, which is embossing.  I have used the Lace Christmas Tree folder and added some gold beads and the Swiss Dots folder.  I have used my new inverted circle punch by Woodware on each of the corners, where I have added some more gold beads, something I learned from Irene.  The base card and embossed card is Quartz Stardream which is a very pale ivory in real life and I have matted onto Mars Stardream, which is dark red.  The text is computer generated and printed onto the Stardream and I quickly added gold ep to heat emboss and then matted onto gold mirror card.  Sorry the card's a bit dark couldn't get a very clear picture and the scan took all of the colour out of it completely.

Thank you for stopping by and for any comments that you may wish to make.  I appreciate every one of them.
