Flowers for Mothers Day

 Hello crafty people

 today is a new Cardz 4 Galz challenge

 the new theme is

'mothers day or for a special lady'

 here is my take


                          The bunch of flowers is a stamp which I heat embossed and coloured in 

here is a close up


I made the background using distress inks in a tray with water and dipped the paper in

The frame is die cut and I made the 'mum' on my cricut

Pink and Brown Valentine's

 Hi crafty people

 It's time for another Cardz 4 Galz challenge

the theme this time is

 'pink and brown'

here is my take

I found a stamp which is flowers and leaves grouped together into a heart shape

It was coloured with pinks and browns

here is a close up

Nuvo drops were used in the center of the flowers and on some dots

I decided to leave it simple and only added a sentiment

so have a look at Cardz 4 Galz and make your own card to enter 

don't forget it must be for a she and not a he

see you there

Bauble Card

Hi crafters

 today I am starting as a guest designer at Winter Wonderland Challenge Blog

at this challenge we get digital stamps from a sponsor to use which is new for me as I have never really gone in for them although this time I had a cut file which I am used to 

The sponsor is Fred She Said

and the cut file I used is Angel Doily Dallion there is more than one doily design in the set

 The theme today is 

'anything goes'

This is our annual tribute challenge remembering Eileen who was the original owner of this challenge blog


 I have used my cut file to make a bauble card

the top layer, with the cut, is white and blue sparkle card is under, shining through

I added a 'hook' at the top so it could be hung on a tree

so have a look at Winter Wonderland Challenge Blog

and make your own card to enter.  It must be Christmas themed

see you there

I am also linking this card with

anything goes
