Dinosaur onesie

Hello lovely people,

I'm back again with a card for another one of my nephews whose birthday is in a week or so.  When he stayed over at ours recently he was sporting a rather fetching dinosaur onesie so when I saw this Tiddly Inks image I knew what I had to do!
The layout is super simple with the text printed on my computer.  I love this font; it was a free one called Skinny Latte if anyone wants to know!

I had great fun using a 'dotting' technique to get a scaly texture on the outfit.  As I was uploading these pics I realised that I hadn't given him any ground to stand on...oops!

In the kitchen

Hello lovely people,

I did warn you I had a lot of cards to share this week and now it's time for the Crafty Little Fairies challenge, where we have the theme...

IN THE KITCHEN

It's a double sponsor week again with fantastic prizes on offer from;

(prize = stamp of winner's choice)

(prize = voucher)

Initially I wasn't sure what I was going to do for this theme but then I spotted the perfect stamp and had an idea for a CAS design with it so here it is;

I love this image but colouring the skirt is quite scary because it's such a big expanse of white!  I think it could be better but I am well aware I am my own worst critic so I guess it's not too bad.
I added stickles to some of the details and although it is a bit more sparkly IRL, you can actually see it in the photos for once!

Going dotty

Hello lovely people,

I am here with my card for Totally Gorjuss and this week our theme is...

Dotty

So that explains the post title today... you could be forgiven for thinking I was talking about myself - lol!

Our sponsors this week (yes, that's TWO sponsors!) are The Ribbon Girl and Heather's Hobbie Haven - we are totally spoiling you :-)

My card is a super simple one, based on several I have seen in blogland using silhouette shapes with DP behind them.

I cut the butterfly shape with my Cricut and then stamped the sentiment below it... and promptly smudged it :-(  So, I had to re-stamp it on a scrap of card and layer it on top, which I now like the look of, so... happy accidents and all that!

(Hmm, not the best photos as the butterfly looks completely different colours in the 2 photos - oops!)

Card recipe;

DP: little scrap of something with no name on hiding in my stash!

Sentiment: Personal Impressions Big Sentiments stamp set

Sadly this will be my last card with Totally Gorjuss as I am stepping down from the DT to have more time to work on other things and practice my colouring!  I have had an amazing time with all the lovely Gorjussettes so thank you all :-D
If you have enjoyed popping in to see my work for Totally Gorjuss then you can always follow my blog and keep up with my creations ;-)
