Snow Penguin

Today's card is one of my first batch of Christmas orders and you won't believe this lady has already started wrapping her presents - how wrong is that ??

The image is a Digistamp Boutique one and is so cute and easy to colour.

I embossed the whole piece of card with a Sizzix embossing folder and flittered the snow and snowflakes.

One today.....

Good Evening All !!

Today I went out to lunch with a couple of girlfriends - we were deciding whether we book a lunch for Christmas or do something completely different - in the end we have decided to book a treatment each at a local beauticians which is located in a renovated farm and you get home made cakes, cups of tea etc all served in vintage crockery - it's just so cute and now have something to look forward to :0)

My card today was a request for a friend - I used Baby Rosie from Digistamp Boutique.

Mid-Challenge Reminder

Well another week over and another week closer to Christmas - did I actually just say that ??

My card today is for my Nephew's girlfriend - I haven't coloured 'Swing Billie' before and must 

admit I loved it.

When I went to brush the background the blue was a lot darker than I wanted it to be but looking at the card as a whole it doesn't look too bad.

and don't forget use a LCI image for an extra chance to win.

Take Care

One Idea Three Cards......

Morning - I needed to make some quick and simple female birthday cards and

this is what I came up with.

I love the simplicity and as previously posted am loving my embossing folders at the moment.

 

 This one reminded me of Cadbury's Dairy Milk ;0) 

 

 

My favourite one....

 

using a fimo flower I have had in my stash for such a long time.

 

Thank you for stopping by.

Pretty in Pink.

Morning!  A really quick card for you today using my favourite colour pink !! I am really loving using my embossing folders direct on my blank card instead of using DP !!

 This card is using a Digistamp Boutique image that I haven't used for such a long time.

New Month and New Challenge

 

I still can't believe it is October - where on earth did our Summer go -

I must be getting old as weeks are flying by.

 

Today there is a brand spanking new challenge at LCI and

it is gorgeous Julie's turn to hostess the challenge and she has chosen

 

' Paper Piercing and/or Stitching (Real or Faux)'

 

I have used 'Handbag Nikki' today - isn't she gorgeous.

 

I embossed the card front with a new De'sire embossing folder - my stitching went a bit haywire as Celeste my Burmese cat decided to help !!!

 

Hope you enjoy the challenge and look forward to seeing your entries on the challenge blog.

 

Don't forget to visit all the bugs and leave some ladybug love.

 

Hugs
