Really excited to share with you today that I am a guest designer with Little Miss Muffet Stamps
If you want to join in with our fun challenge this week of

This is the second page when you open the album and just a little tease of some of the images from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.
Not coloured at the moment because I want to use them on some other projects for the month.
So watch this space. Popping back with some more pages from the album so please come back later for another nose.
I will be adding my photos to the album at a later date … the grandchildren are older now and very fussy about what photos they want in there … especially Amber!!!
Little Miss Muffet has a DT call at the moment so if you’re looking to join a team of crafters who work with some of the most adorable images then GO FOR IT.

Me thinks I might have a go, it would be great to work with such a talented bunch of designers, just check out all their creations they are fabulous.
Nearly forgot to mention that if you use an image from Little Miss Muffet Stamps then the theme is ANYTHING GOES … isn’t that just a cool idea.

Entering for:
Craft Your Passion – Anything Goes
Hooked On Craft – Show Us Your Flowers
Ooh La La Creations – Summer Flowers
Lasting Memories – Create an album with a summer theme

Anything Goes
is the challenge this week at Digi Doodles Shop’s Best.
This image made me chuckle when I saw it and couldn’t wait to put it on a card, it is called Cookie Monsters.

Paper pieced instead of the usual colouring and for more inspiration for the challenge just mosey along and see all the other DT’s creations they are superb.

Wahoo it’s the boring time of holiday photos from Turkey – only a few I promise.
Amber and myself having a pedicure … she was so excited, it was her first time as you can see in her face.
Alex, Amber and Lauren in the next pic … and all three look as if butter wouldn’t melt in their mouth.
We want to say a huge thanks to our Son and daughter-in-law Claire for inviting us to go with them on this wonderful holiday … x x x x

Lazy Hazy Days Of Summer

June 16th, 2011 by Shirl - Posted in Digi Doodles Best, Digi Images

Digi Doodles Shop’s Best would love to see your STITCHING for this weeks challenge.
Don’t you just love it when things go right with your card … then bingo … all plans go out the window because something goes wrong with the sewing machine.
That’s what happened to me, so had to stitch by hand instead, which made me late adding my card for posting, ah well can’t be helped!!!

The winner of this challenge will win a $10 gift voucher from the Digi Doodle Shop.
You could even buy the image which I have used on my card called Beach Babes … don’t they look cute.
Take a stroll over to see all the teams creations they are stunning.

May 22nd, 2011 by Shirl - Posted in Digi Images, Sentimental Sundays

Sentimental Sunday’s Challenge time and it certainly challenged me this week 😀
This week the challenge is …

ONE LAYER CARD

Oooo it was soooo hard … had to sit on my hands because all I wanted to do was … add paper, add ribbon, add flowers, add lace … you get the picture!!!

010627010629

This is the sit on my hands card and I love her.
Have to run at the moment – being given the bottoms rush from hubby but loved her so much wanted to post … Off to Dublin to buy some togs for the holiday especially a super duper sleek trim bikini for my super duper sleek trim body.

OK a hold it in tight all in one body armour for this super duper roly poly, but all mine body … wish it wasn’t all mine!!! Hands up who wants to share some of it??
Will be back later with details of sponsors images etc.

Just had my few hours of retail therapy and bought my super duper bikini so on with the rest of the info about the challenge.
Heart Song Designs are sponsoring this weeks challenge and so of course is Anne.

I have used images from Mo’s Digital Pencil – Friday’s Child – Make It Crafty and Raindrop Echo Designs Whimsy Stamps
Printed directly onto a Craftwork Cards, card and coloured all with a mixture of Pro Markers, the card with paper to hide it.

Attitude In Pink

May 20th, 2011 by Shirl - Posted in Album, Digi Images, Elisabeth Bell

Real quick post here as I still have cards to make. Saw this book on someone’s post and fell in love with it, so had to make one, or two or even three.
Will pop back later and show inside of book also the other books I have made.

Spotlighted Embossing

May 19th, 2011 by Shirl - Posted in Digi Doodles Best, Digi Images, Vintage

 

At last found some time to do a bit of distressing on my card (just a bit) for the Digi Doodles Shops Best challenge.
We would love to see from you this week your Embossing.
For my card I have used the image Lady Bug – really spotlighted the image by printing the same image three times but on different coloured cardstock,
then layered one on top of the other. This technique is called Spotlighting and you can see a how to video from Dawn here.
Coloured the last image with Pro markers and triple embossed it.

For even more inspiration pop along to see what the other DT girls have created.

MIC Meets SS

May 15th, 2011 by Shirl - Posted in Digi Images, Easel Cards, Make It Colourful, Sentimental Sundays

Lion 4Lion 41What a yuk last few days for everyone – not even going to say the dreaded word of who’s fault it was, suffice to say it began with B

I have combined two challenges with this card – Sentimental Sundays meets Make It Colouful.

SS this week want to see your Handmade Flowers and MIC want to see your Dotty Backgrounds

The beautiful sentiment on my easel card is one from Raindrop Echo Designs the Floral Haven Sentiments.
I mixed and matched two of the sentiments from this set to make the beautiful sentiment below,
and the adorable image is Courageous Carl from Crissy’s Art & Heart both are from Whimpsy Stamps.
Background image is from Make It Crafty from The Secret Garden collection called Daffodil Dell. Trust me there is a dotty background there.

010618010620010619

Papers used are We R Memory Keepers – Carl and Daffodil Dell have been watercoloured.
The three large silk flowers have been heated so they melt and go all crinkly, my little white flower is a piece of salvage edged material.

Last week at Sentimental Sundays we celebrated our first anniversary and we had a mini blog hop.
All the DT’s who participated were allowed to give away a digital sentiment of the winner’s choice from Raindrop Echo Designs.

The winner from my blog is – MARSHA – congratulations Marsha , please email us at sentimentalsundays@raindropecho.com
with your choice of digital sentiment set from Raindrop Echo Designs. Please remember to put – Blog Hop Winner – in the subject line.
