Anniversary Hearts!! Plus CAS(e) This Sketch #50 Guest Designer

Morning.... Very exciting news today .. I'm Guest Designer over at CAS(e) This Sketch this week for Chrissy Larson for the half century challenge!! It's a fabulous sketch too!!! Here it is!!

I've used a new die I bought on Saturday at Leigh for this little card I'll add the make later lol as I can't remember!!  It's just perfect for this sketch.  The sentiment is from Stampin Up

Update: The die is from Impression Obsession and is called Heart Of Hearts.  I bought it from Oyster Stamps at the show.

That's all for today... Hope you can join in with us this week...

Olivia & Archie

It's sadly my last week as Guest Designer at Cupcake crafts and this week the theme is Green, Orange, yellow and white.  Now when I first saw this I was very unsure how it would come together. I combined it with the sketch from Cute Card Thursday

I've chose to use a digi from digistamp boutique - Olivia and Archie.  This is coloured in with promarkers ( caramel, cocoa, burnt sienna, leaf, bright and forest green, spice, ginger, apricot, sun kissed pink, cool grey 1-3, buttercup and mustard).

The papers are my minds eye bloom and grow from an 8by8 set on sale at range a few weeks ago. the flowers are cut out from one of the sheets.... a few pearls and some scrap of dovecraft ribbon and finished with a sentiment from scrap-a-licious.

Sorry about the photo the green ribbon look a completely different colour than it does on the actual card

hope you enjoy this weeks challenge

Tortoise and the Hare & GDT for Cupcake Crafts

What an exciting day, I got a message earlier to email Faye at Cupcake Crafts and she asked if I would be Guest DT for May... How cool....I'm so excited!!

Anyhow, onto my card for today... I decided I'd have a go a the "Comedy Challenge" for this weeks Cupcake Crafts, only to find out I didn't really have anything very comical....But I gave it a go...  I've used the sketch from Totally Gorjuss #74 for the layout. Here is the card...

Image is Turtley Yours (yes I know, but I think it looks more like a tortoise being that I've seen a fair few Turtle up close and personal)  from the Retiring section at Pink Petticoat, I picked it out last week when I went looking for leopard print paper.  I've coloured this in with promarkers ( Pear, Marsh, Lime, Aegean, French Navy, Cool Grey 4,5, Cardinal Red).  I've then cut out with a Hex Nestie and added some Glossy Accents to to spots. The Papers are all Pink Petticoat ( Big Fella Collection).  It's finished off with a sentiment printed on PC ( Font: A Little Pot) and a tad of card candy.

I've also entered it into " My partner in Crafting Crime Challenge #24- Layers it Up"


Hope you like it
