Monday's Mojo....

Yep, it's Monday again, hope you all had a wonderful weekend and have started the new week with a rested body and a happy soul :o)

As promised yesterday on my blog I am giving away the sentiment I made for my Sunday's Challenge DT card yesterday; all you have to do is let me know you want it by dropping me a line. Click this link to the Charmed site and write your details in the online form (opens in a new window). Usual restrictions apply, the sentiment is for your own personal use only and must not be shared or used for commercial purposes.

For your Monday Mojo boost I made the card below. This card uses the amazing Puddle Love image from the Love and Marriage collection, I used the transparent coloured image version which meant I could layer it against my sentiment then print it out as a whole. I wanted to show you that you can use the sentiment circles as a part of the actual design, and not solely as a print and cut out embellishment, and of course it once again illustrates just how versatile the downloads are. Get just the size and layout that you want.

Thank goodness it's Friday!

It's been a long and stressful week over in the Dingle house....so I decided to make a little card for my hubby to show him how much he's appreciated. Still using the inspiration from the "Colour me silly" challenge I used the Puddle Image from the Love and Marriage Collection. This is such a lovley image to work with.

I thought the colours were cheerful and although a bit girlie for my hubby, the thought was there! I printed out the image 3 times and cut and decoupaged it. I used my all time fav, Glossy Accents for the puddle and hid a little slushy message behind the image.

At home for Christmas with Dottie

Welcome to Dottie's at Christmas!!
This card is only a5 in size(a4 in half) I imported the images to word from The Christmas Collection of Downloads of course from Charmed Cards,checkout the blinkie,takes you straight to them. I reduced the size to almost stamps size to get the scale right for the house.
I used a dolls house template from Helping Hands Template

The roof lifts up to reveal the upper floor or Attic, I put the lil dots up there in their own bedroom,these are from the Love and marriage Collection of downloads,also the wedding picture downstairs is too.
I added fencing,cut to a smaller size and covered the house with snow writer,I love this stuff!!
I whipped up the bedrooms furniture out of brown paper and watercolour pens
The front sections open up to reveal the downstairs. The only things not from the Dottie downloads are the fireplace,in the left window & the poinsettia plant inside on the right window.

Love and Marriage

Hello all, Louise here, I hope you've been enjoying the lovely weather we're having - I haven't because I've been making a new collection for you all! The things I do for you eh!

It's not available just yet but as you know it's never long after I've said that, that it appears on your screens.

Here's a sneaky peek from the new collection of a very quick card I just made using Dottie and George in love.

This image is so easy to just plonk on a card! This card literally just made itself. So has it tempted you? Just a little bit? Well there's more where that came fro, be sure to keep checking back for more previews.

Remember to keep your challenge cards coming in, we love to come and see them.xx
