Seasonal Sisters – Spring & Summer

New challenge starting today at Little Miss Muffet and we want to see Multiple Stamps used on your creation.
At least two images on your project or more if you want … no cheating now sweeties, the sentiment doesn’t count.

For my card, the two stamps used are from the Little Misses range called Spring Whisper and Summer Breeze.
You can also buy these two in a combo selection called Seasonal Sisters … have printed the other two images onto tags just waiting to be coloured.

Oopsie daisy, hid little bunnies head with the flower and wow am I in my pink mode at the moment.

MIA from Little Miss Muffett

Thanks sweeties for popping back to see what I have made with MIA one of the images from the Little Miss Muffet New Releases.

Used one of the smaller Craftwork cards then printed MIA onto a tag … coloured her with Promarkers first, but paper pieced her dress with extra added hi-lights from the Promarkers. Masked her off and inked the edges with TH Victorian Velvet. Added micro beads to the centre of the flowers … the middles so remind me of those sweets you get from Liquorice Allsorts.

Enjoy and then stroll on over to my teemies blogs to see lots of inspiration with all the other New Releases but also remember you still have time to enter the Little Miss Muffet Challenge.

A Chaise Longue Moment

Manic here at the moment, since bank holiday this Monday I have lost a complete day … mind you nothing unusual there all my days seem to fly into one.

Have my three grandchildren here at the moment, Amber, Alex and Lauren plus Mum … Dad doesn’t arrive until next Wednesday evening, work permitting. Wow do they keep me on my toes.

My fave time of the week … Little Miss Muffet Challenges and not only do we have a new challenge but I am so excited to say we have 4 more new Design Team Members.
When you stop off and leave your entry hop on over to leave the newbies some love … (I can say newbie because I have been a DT member for 2 whole weeks now.) 😀

Fashionable Stamping Challenges

My first DT card and still on cloud nine about the new challenge blog
Fashionable Stamping Challenges

Our first challenge is ANYTHING GOES

Just don’t get to do enough stamping and inking like I used to, so, this is one happy bunny, that we have all started this venture.

For my card I actually got the brayer out which I have not used in … well forever … also used a stamp which hasn’t seen the light of day … probably since I bought it.

Used the Big & Juicy ink pad called Hydrangea, stamped and embossed the image onto white glossy card with white embossing powder, then brayered, even did some quilling. Decided on quite a simple card but very elegant looking … me thinks the dress looks just like a fashion model would wear. Found a beautiful piece of lace which I put behind the nestie frame.

Time to hop on over to see all the Teemies cards … where they get there inspiration from is beyond me!!!

More Little Miss Muffets

Well here is the inside of the little album I have created … on the left is the Fashionable Camila and on the right is the Delectable Peggy Sue Hatter
Stamped little thingies onto the clothes of these fashionable girlies Peggy Sue has scrolls and flowers and Camila has leaves.
As usual coloured them in with everything except the kitchen sink and itsy bitsy bits of glitter … girls need bling in their lives.
Check out the tags I have wanted these for ages … they are from Stampin Up and Barbara put them up for grabs and I bought them … wahoo thanks hunny bunny.

Tomorrow if you pop back you will see the back of the album which has the rather delicious looking Quinceanera Daydream on it.
By the way the album is made with 2 sheets of 12 x 12 paper no cutting or glueing just folding … real neat eh. 😉
… Well just a weeny bit of glueing when you attach the two sheets together … this album could be endless you can just add more sheets whenever.

Sewing Tag

Love … Anything Goes … which is the challenge this week at Digi Doodle Shop Challenges.
As you know I relish making tags more than anything and as soon as I saw this sewing box it cried out to me … make a tag Shirl 😀
Sew … tee hee … I did. Image used is Sewing Basket with just about everything in it. Don’t even ask where the little cotton reel came from, don’t know.
Wound it with a pink cotton and left it to trail over the pins.

Tag 1

The paper used is a digi download, then just cut out elements from it. Made an eight layer flower, spritzed, inked, scrunched, so easy but effective.
