Seeing Spots......

Good morning everyone.
I hope you are all well and enjoying the sunshine.
So we have a new challenge over at 
A Gem Of A Challenge
And our theme this week is 
"Spots/Stripes Or Both"
And here is my DT card

For my card I used this pre~coloured digi image from Pink Gem Designs called Andy With Frog. Now how cute is this....just love the little frog. The papers are my favourites from Crafts Creations Ltd. The border punch is from Martha Stewart and the stars are Nestability dies. I added some navy blue pearls and a computer generated sentiment to complete my creation.
The prize for the winner will be two individual digi images of the winners choice from Pink Gem Designs. (No sets, personalised watermarks or sentiment sets).
Please pop over to the main challenge blog and take a peek at all the lovely spotty/stripy creations the rest of the DT have created for your inspiration.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:~
SweetPea Stampers ~ For Men/Boys MilkCoffee Challenge ~ # Use Country Flag Colours Ladybug Crafts ~ Birthdays

Thank you for taking the time to stop by.
Have a lovely day.

Cameo

Good morning everyone.
I hope you are all well.
I just wanted to share a quick card with you that I made with the scraps I had left over after completing another project. It's a very simple card and although I'm quite pleased with the effect I keep wanting to add 'something' to the bottom left hand corner......but I'm trying to resist the temptation..........

All the items I used can be found at The Hobby House except the sentiment which is a stamp from Hero Arts ~ Your History.
Thank you for taking the time to stop by.
Have a lovely day.

Vintage Inspiration At The Hobby House

Good afternoon everyone.
I hope you are all well.
Today it's my turn to show an inspirational piece over at 
The Hobby House
I decided to make a vintage cracker.....

Now I have to say that Vintage creations are really not my usual style but I'm so pleased I gave it a go.
The Hobby House Items used are:~
Paper ~ Spring Damask Pearl Strings ~ Assorted Ribbon ~ Organza Cameo ~ Large Lady ~ Oval Mulberry Roses ~ Assorted Pearls ~ Snow White ~ Small
The cracker template was from a set I won some time ago which can be purchased from Which Craft.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by.
Have a lovely day.

Hello Baby!

Good morning everyone.
I hope you are all well.
I should have named this post 'Hello Sunshine'......It's lovely and sunny here and I have a day off.....well that makes a nice change I can tell you.
Today I have a card to share......I don't seem to be getting much time for crafting with one thing and another......but I keep trying.

The image on my card is from LOTV and I coloured using my Distress Marker pens, these are slowly becoming my favourite pens but I still can't get away from my Promarkers. The papers are from Craft Creations Ltd.....I just love these polka dot papers. I found the ribbon in my scraps box and the pearls are as always from The Hobby House. The little hearts and bows die is from Memory Box.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:~

Thank you for taking the time to pop by.

Just For You

Good evening everyone.
I hope you are all well.
I've finally got round to making another card......I really haven't had much time for crafting lately.

I made this card for no particular reason other than I could and this sweet topper was lying on my craft mat.
For my card I used a Wee Card Topper ~ Silver Fairy  Self Adhesive Flourishes ~ Pearl  Mulberry Paper Roses ~ Raspberry Truffle  Decorative Pins ~ Urban Teardrop  Self Adhesive Pearls ~ 5mm Ruby Mix Lace and Pearl Strings  all from The Hobby House. 
The papers are from Limited Edition ~ Dreamcatcher. The large rose was from Wild Orchid Crafts.
I'm quite pleased with this card as I was beginning to think my Mojo had taken a permanent holiday. 
I seem to have been so busy just lately and I know I have neglected my followers but I hope things are now settling down and I will be able to catch up with you all.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:~
