Mother's Day Cats

Time for a new Cardz 4 Galz challenge

the new theme is 

'Mother's day USA or a special day'

here is my take


 This is the card I made for my mum for mother's day.  I couldn't share it then as she would have seen it so I'm sharing it now

As you can see I have used my peek-a-boo stamps and dies to make a frame and I stamped, coloured and cut out the cats and arranged them around

so head over to Cardz 4 Galz Challenges

and make your own paper project to enter

see you there

Rainbow Trees

Hello Christmas lovers

I have made a CAS style Christmas card 


I used a nice tree stamp coloured and added 3d enamel effect dots

here they are


then I cut them out with a bauble stamp and cut the hanger again in gold sparkle

I then drew around the die itself to give the bauble an edge and glued it down with glue blocks so it stands out from the card

and added the sentiment and twine

April Showers

It's time for a new Sparkles Monthly Challenge

this months theme is

'April showers'

here is my take


I used an old rubber stamp of the little girl in the rain which decided to rip when I peeled it off the acetate but I put it back together and I think I got away with it

She was coloured and I used 3D enamel effects on the umbrella, rain drops and puddle 

Of course I didn't have a sentiment that would go with the image and I wasn't about to freehand write it myself so I had my cricut machine write it for me

Little Monster

Hi crafty people

I have made a monster card


I found a fun theme challenge at little red wagon 'monsters' which I just had to do.  So I decided to incorporate a sketch from Tuesday morning sketches which I haven't joined in with for a while.  Then I thought I may as well add in a colour challenge too.   

I made up the monster from a make your own monster stamp set and cut her out

I stamped and cut up the eye from the same set 

and used some crazy embossing folders for the background and added a few 3d enamel effect dots

Slimline Chicks

It's time for another Cardz 4 Galz challenge

todays theme is

'slimline cards'

here is my take


The card blank was made from some green off cut so is a completely unique size which is great until I have to put it into an envelope!

So I was looking for a theme which would work with green and chose yellow chicks

I arranged them with three sentiments spread out along the card, stamped and die cut some balloons and stuck them on with glue blocks so they would pop, then filled the gaps with blue stars, nuvo sparkle drops, 3d enamel effect and yellow puffy paint

so have a look at Cardz 4 Galz Challenges

and make your own card to enter.  Remember it has to be feminine not masculine
