Meet Maggie

Good Morning girls
This card is for a challenge over at HobbyCrafters forum, it's a new wee place where I like to hang out and have a bit of crafty chat.
Anyway, the theme was flowers and it was up to you how you percieved it so I chose to have the floral paper which I've had in my stash for goodness knows how long. The stamp is Maggie from the Sugar Nellie range. I've coloured her with prisma pencils and used a simple mount as the paper is quiet loud!
Talking of Sugar Nellie, have you seen their blog here I could browse for hours there's sooooooooo much inspiration over there.

Hugs

Good morning girls
Hopefully your all fine and dandy this morning and not suffering from too much of this horrible weather that's around at the moment.
This is my entry into the Charizma Cards Challenge this week. Joanne set the recipe 3-2-1, 3 papers, two flowers and one ribbon so I've just about covered that!
Papers are from Costco, the image is from a set of Inkadoo stamps that I've had for ever and a day but not really used and the ribbon and flowers are from my stash.
Don't forget to check out the great blog candy on the sidebar girls. There's some lovely goodies in blogland just now.

My First Design Team Entry


Hi girls
Here's my first card as a member of the Funky Fairies design team
The papers and image is from the Love Train free kit which was only available for 24 hours.
I cut the backing and flower with my cricut, coloured the image with prismas and added some brads and ribbon from my stash.
Why not grab the one of the free kits over at the Inspirational Blog or visit the shop to see what else is on offer. We'd love to see your creations for this weeks challenge over at Funky Fairies, so why not drop in and say hello

Thank you and a challenge entry


I needed to make a thank you card for Mina for the gorgeous blog candy. What better than to use some of the stash she sent me. Isn't Tilda just a real wee cutie. This is my first tilda stamp and already I'm hooked, I feel a crafty spend coming on.
Anyway, as the One Stop Challenge this week is buttons and bows I thought this would fit the bill nicely.
Thanks once again Mina, I'm totally overwhelmed by the lovely goodies you sent.

Remember there are some great blog candy links on the side bar girls

Two Awards



Hi girls
How lucky am I? Two more lovely awards from Susie Sugar This lovely lady spoils me rotten.
If you've not been over to Susie's place, then girls you are missing out.
She makes the most beautiful little books and albums and designs the dies to boot. Please pay her a visit and be prepared to be stunned at the quality of her work.

I'd like to pass both these awards to Andrea Lorraine Lorraine and last but not least Katherine All of these talented ladies have given me so much inspiration recently it's nice to give something in return. Enjoy your awards ladies.

Don't forget to check out the side bar girls for links to some great blog candy

Hi girls
Just a quick card tonight. I was asked if I could make a card with Fifi on for a little girl who's turning three. How could I refuse?
Anyway, paper is from Provocraft and the other bits and bobs were from my stash.
Hope your all fairing well in this terrible weather. I'm finding it difficult to stop looking out the window, wondering when this snow is ever going to stop.
Hugs
Anne
