Before moving on,  We have a Children's Holiday Challenge starting tomorrow and lasting for the whole month of August,,, it's that time of year to let your kids loose in your craft room again ,,,, hide your copics :-) 
There are so many fabulous stamps, dies, card kits and other products to choose from that I was ages trying to decide what to use so in the end I made 2  :-) 

First up is a stylish sort'a card using the Butterfly Tendrils die, isn't it pretty, and an 'Expressions For You' stamp and die set. :-)


I started by making a cloudy sky and delicate green background using a copic air brush. Then coloured the die cut with the same green marker, G21. Then I die cut the butterflies out of vellum, smooched with embossing ink and sprinkled with one of my fave products ,,,, Judikins Sticky Stuff ,, LOVE it , then sprinkled with glitter ,,, oohh yum ,,, so sparkly :-D

This card was made for the lovely Kate aka Downrightcrafty, she very kindly sent a copy of the magazine I was published in to my Mum :-) Thanks Kate :-)


see I told you it was a long post ,,, are you enjoying your coffee ?? :-)

Now it's Simon's turn to get a look in :-) We all LOVE Simon,, our store mascot ,, isn't he adorable :-)



What do you think of the wax seal ! I have had the paw print stamp for ages and thought it would be pawfect to use it for this,,,  :-)

Saturated Canary Balloon Wishes

Hi all :-) I hope all is well :-) 

 I am here with a card for the new theme over on the Papertake Weekly Challenge and this week Dawny has made a fab sketch,,,, you can choose to use this one, or any previous one, the choice is yours ,,, A SKETCHIE FREE FOR ALL :-)

I used this is the new one, Sketch 81, created for this week :-)



We are sponsored by the lovely Heidi at Simon Says Stamp so a fab $20 Voucher on offer :-)



Simon Says Stamp are now selling the super cute Saturated Canary Stamps so I thought I would make a card using this Balloon Wishes, this one is a digi but she is available in rubber :-)

 I am useless,, the digi comes on a sheet and you have to remove bits and add the balloon you want to use ,,,,,I spent hours trying to do it,,,watched loads of You Tube videos ,,, I will be buying the rubber versions from now on, so much easier  :-)



I love how she turned out in the end ,,,, :-) I love her Uggs , think I might get me some :-)
