The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge #10!

Hello! How is everyone? Good I hope!

Today launches our new monthly Anything Goes challenge over on THE PAPER NEST DOLLS CHALLENGE BLOG ! As always we have a fab prize to offer our winner so check out THE BLOG for all the details!

Well here we are in October (already) and I thought it would be rude not to acknowledge the approach of All Hallows’ Eve.  Therefore I made a ‘spooky’ wall hanger featuring the not-at-all-frightening VAMPIRE OWEN and papers and elements from some of the fab Polkadoodles Halloween bundles.

I coloured Owen and the pumpkin with my can’t-stop-using-them LYRA REMBRANDT POLYCOLOR PENCILS and fussy cut them to go on top of my scene.  A bit of Serif digi merging has gone on here to create the sky and ground behind the haunted house and to mat the sentiment on top of the pumpkin.  Hey, get me!!

I really adore this image and just had to use him for the challenge.  I have to admit to being a bit of a Halloween fan and we have a party every year so this will be hanging up somewhere in my house! Oooooooh! (That’s a ghost noise by the way!!)

Ingredients:

Image: VAMPIRE OWEN

Background image, bat, papers sentiment and pumpkin: POLKADOODLES

Dies/Punches: Tattered Lace ‘Large Decorative Rectangles’

Card: Neenah Solar White - DCWV

Colouring: LYRA REMBRANDT POLYCOLOR PENCILS

So creep along to THE BLOG and we will say ‘fangs’ for joining our Anything Goes Challenge. And don’t forget to visit THE SHOP for all of Christine’s adorable stamps and now there are digis available HERE too!!

The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge #9!

Hello! How is everyone? Good I hope!

I had a pretty awful weekend as our water tank overflowed upstairs and came through my craft room ceiling and flooded one of the built in wardrobes and my craft desk!!! It managed to ruin a project and a pad of paper but thankfully that was it.  A minor miracle I have to say but the wardrobe full of clothes was a different story! What a mess.  But I am a 'glass-half-full' type of person so the washing machine worked overtime and we are 'almost' back to normal. Phew!!

Anyway, back to much more pleasant things and today launches our new monthly Anything Goes challenge over on THE PAPER NEST DOLLS CHALLENGE BLOG ! As always we have a fab prize to offer our winner so check out THE BLOG for all the details!

I used the oh-so pretty RIDING HOOD AVERY and my much used stepper die for my make this time.

I made an impulse buy (who me?!!) of a Papermania Capsule collection some time ago and it has this fab plaid paper in it which I thought would go very well with this image and her basket of goodies. There’s no sentiment on this one as I couldn't really find anything appropriate.  That could change though.

Can you spot the wolf lurking in the trees at the back?  Hmmmm! More silly than sinister methinks!! J

Ingredients:

Image: RIDING HOOD AVERY

Dies/Punches: Tattered Lace ‘Centre Stepper Set’ - Tonic ‘Nesting Ovals’ – Spellbinders ‘Whimsical Tree’ – X-Cut flower mini palm punch

Card: Neenah Solar White - Papermania

Colouring/Ink:  Spectrum Noir markers and pencils

Others: Acrylic drops – ribbon – Tonic Crystal Drops

Hopeless hand drawing: ‘Wolf’ eyes

Ooooh what big crafty eyes you have!! So take them along with you to join in our Anything Goes Challenge on THE BLOG where you will also see some stunning inspiration from the DT. And don’t forget to visit THE SHOP for all of Christine’s adorable stamps and now there are digis available too HERE!!

Hello! How is everyone? Good I hope!

So today launches our new monthly challenge over on THE PAPER NEST DOLLS CHALLENGE BLOG and our theme as always is Anything Goes! Once again we are sponsored by the wonderful…

…who are also offering this a fab prize……

… so check out THE BLOG for all the details!

Now my image this week is part of the JULY NEW RELEASE and her name is ARTIST EMMA! What a sweetheart!  I suppose to embrace the spirit of the subject matter I should have made an ‘easel’ card, but I didn’t. Hey ho!

I wandered a little out of my comfort zone with this one.  I used my Aqua Tints to create ‘painty’ backing papers and coloured EMMA and a splodgey background with Inktense Pencils which I haven’t used for ages.  Hmmm… more practice methinks!

It is unfortunate that Emma’s artistic skills were very much reliant on my own so I don’t really rate her ‘effort’ as seen on my homemade easel (more Pitiful then Picasso).  But she did try, bless her so you gotta luv her for that!!! J

Ingredients:

Image: ARTIST EMMA

Sentiment: POLKADOODLES WORK AND PLAY 11

Dies/Punches: Tonic ‘Nesting Rectangles’

Card: Crafters Companion Water Colour Card – Kraft - Various from stash

Colouring/Ink:  Inktense Pencils – Spectrum Noir Aqua Tints – Picked Raspberry and Peacock Feathers DI

Others: Pearls

Hopeless Hand drawings (making a thankfully brief return J!): Easel painting - Paintbrushes

So be sure to take ‘art’ in our Anything Goes Challenge by visiting the blog and you will also see some stunning inspiration from the DT there too. And don’t forget to visit the shop for all of Christine’s adorable stamps!! There is a CHRISTMAS IN JULY NEW RELEASE too!!

Hello! How is everyone! Good I hope!

Today launches our new monthly challenge over on The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge Blog and our theme is Anything Goes! We always have a fabulous prize on offer so check out the blog for details.

So I decided to use the so super cute LITTLE MISS HOLLYWOOD for my card this time.  Isn't she just the sweetest!!  Love all those curls!

As she has the whole Shirley Temple thing going on I decided to colour her black and white using a 6B and a 2B pencil with touches of a Spectrum Noir pencil for a purple accent.

This was so quick to put together as I knew what I wanted from the get-go.  Good job really as I had made a card with the wrong image and had to get this one done quick sticks! Crikey, if I had a brain I’d be dangerous!!! J

Sentiment: Kanban

Dies/Punches: Sue Wilson ‘Scandinavian Background’ – Sizzix ‘Oval Framelits’

Card: Neenah Solar White

Hello there! I’m back again! 

So today I am showcasing on The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge Blog! Yay!!

I decided to decorate a bag using the adorable Shopping Girl Ellie for my project this time.

I do love how she has lots of shopping bags but no handbag! Although she could have her credit card tucked in her shoe which is a trick my friend apparently used to employ when she was out and about in London! Not too sure why! Must have made her limp a bit!

Some Bunny Loves You – Oh Yes They Do!

Hello there! I’m back again!  3 posts in 3 days! Good grief I need to sit down!!

So comfortably seated I can tell you that today I am showcasing on The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge Blog and I am using the utterly gorgeous Some Bunny Loves You!

Such an adorable image and I believe totally appropriate for my project as you will see from the explanation below!! 

Now the other day I commented on a post here by me sweet blogging friend Sarah admiring the adorable crochet bunny she had made and DEMANDING she put him in the post to me IMMEDIATELY! Of course I was only joking but that is exactly what she did! OMG! I was knocked off my feet and so overwhelmed I’m not ashamed to say I shed a tear! He was sent to cheer me up after the nightmare I’ve had with my dogs (a semblance of peace has resumed I’m happy to say) and cheer me up he did.  He is currently proudly sitting on my desk at work marvelling at how little I get away with doing all day!!! (Trust me it’s a shocker!) J

And here is Jeremy (yes that’s his name and I have my reasons!!) atop the gorgeous box he arrived in! Isn't he fab and even better IRL (yes, Sarah, he does stand up to close inspection, he’s perfect!)!  LOVE HIM!!  Thank you so much, my friend!  You are a superstar! xxx

Ingredients:

Image: Some Bunny Loves You

Sentiment: LOTV

Dies: Sue Wilson ‘Scandinavian Background’ – Tonic ‘Nesting Ovals’

Punches: Tonic flower

Paper/Card: Neenah Solar White – LOTV ‘Bonnets & Bowties’

The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge #3!

Hello!  Hope everyone is well and happy! I would firstly like to say a HUGE thank you for all the good wishes I had after my rather horrible time with my dogs! Without boring you with too much detail there was a big fight, injuries all round (including me!!! Note to self DO NOT get between two fighting Staffies) but everyone is healing well and our house is now like Fort Knox with baby gates everywhere and a 1 in 1 out system that seems to be working (so far)! The thought of trying to rehome one of them is just too distressful to think of so this is our current solution. I am praying very hard that it works.  Needless to say my mojo, my confidence and concentration seems to have taken a huge blow so please forgive me for not getting round to visiting you all; my head is all over the place right now! Hopefully normal service will resume shortly! 

OK I’ll stop the waffle to let you know that despite all the horrible things that have happened I have some fab news! A few weeks ago I was invited to join the fabulous Paper Nest Dolls DT and I didn't hesitate to say yes!!  So this is my first challenge as part of the team and our theme every month is Anything Goes! We always have a fabulous prize on offer so check out the blog for details.

I decided to make one of my all-time favourite styles of card the diorama/shadow box/tunnel thingy. Still not convinced that’s the proper name for it!! And as I am a Pisces myself (my birthday just happens to be today, a landmark one too but the least said about that the better!!) I used the gorgeous Zodiac Pisces placing her in a little underwater scene! Love those sweet iddy fishes!!

Ingredients:

Image: Zodiac Pisces

Sentiment: Computer generated

Colouring/Ink: Spectrum Noir markers & pencils

Dies: Tonic ‘Indulgence Sentiment Thinking Of You’ (frame only) & Swirls – Spellbinders ‘Cherry Blossom’ & ‘Ribbon Banners’

Guest Designer for The Paper Nest Dolls!

Hello, how are things with you? Good I hope!

I was so thrilled to be asked to the Guest Designer in November for The Paper Nest Dolls Challenge Blog and here is my last card! I just want to say a big thank you to the lovely PND ladies for inviting me and giving me the opportunity to work with such gorgeous images!

So what did I do this time?  Well I chose to use the beautiful Ballgown Avery who is available in rubber so check out the store here. 

I really had to do the whole 'pretty in pink' thing with his sweet lady as I don’t seem to have done a girly card for ages!

It is quite surprising that my design came out pink at all really and not black as my Grand Calibur decided to leak oil all over my plates and my hands! Grrrrrrr!! Thank goodness I have a Cuttlebug and a Big Shot (I know…. I won’t tell you that I have access to an E-bosser as well; greedy or what)!! J

Ingredients:

Stamps: Ballgown Avery

Dies:  Spellbinders ‘Elegant Labels 4’ - Tattered Lace ‘Kensington’ frame, ‘Midi Blooms’ & ‘Vines’
