Have you made a project and a sneeky peek

Happy Monday girls
No card from me today (yet) but I just wanted to remind you that you've a couple of days left to enter your project into this weeks challenge over on Funky Fairy's.

So girls, go 'case' a project, make it your own and leave us your link. We do love visiting to see all your wonderful creations.

Hi girls
Look at this gorjuss candy!!!!
Sonia is offering these fabulous goodies until 30th of September.
There are rules though, seven of them to be precise but they're only little ones so pop for a visit and find out all about it here



Having a play

Hi girls
I just wasn't in the mood at all tonight to make any cards. I played around for a while, put a few bits in the bin - as you do then came up with this. It began life as a CD now it's a pretty little wall hanging for me craft room and better still it covers three challenges lol


The papers are from Funky Fairy's, aren't those daisies fabby!!!! These were my starting point. I then searched the net for a quote which I printed out and cut around with my nesties, added some bling and left it at that as I really did want the flowers to be the main focus.

1. ABC - C is for............. (circles)
2. Pile It On - cirlces
3. - CRAFT - anything but a card

Making a start on Christmas

Happy Saturday girls
It's raining cats and dogs here as usual, it's going to be another bleak weekend for us here in Scotland I think. I can't believe we're in September and have hardly had a sunny day in what should've been summer :)
I had a little crafty time yesterday so decided to get another Christmas card done. I'm always rushing at the last minute so am making a conscious effort to have a good supply ready early this year.


So this is what I came up with. This is Pip & Poppet from Digital Delights, I thought they'd make a great Christmas card for a child although I'm not so sure that was what Wendy had in mind when she designed this one lol. The papers are all DCVW Christmas stack, sentiment brad is from Dovecraft and the other bits and bobs are from my every growing stash. I've also covered 3 challenges so am feeling quite chuffed with myself lol
Have a great weekend girls and thanks for stopping by.

1. Friday Sketchers - sketch
2. Pollycraft - Furry Friends
3. - Cupcake Crafts - 3 buttons, 2 papers and 1 ribbon

It's Freebie Friday

Good morning girls
I hope your all fine and dandy and ready for another weekend of fun!!! I wish I could say I was but some of us have to work, there's always so much more crafty stash to buy isn't there but, since it's that time of the week where Wendy at Digital Delights gives us all a lovely freebie why not save those pennies for something else and go get this gorgeous little Pumpkin Teddy. You could even use him for the challenge over on Delighful Sketches, we'd love to see you.

I just had to play with this little cutie as soon as I saw him. What a fabby image for all our hallowe'en or harvest cards. Isn't he the bees knees?


This week over at Simon Says Challenge it's this gorgeous sketch, so that was the basis for this card. I coloured the image with prismas blended with a little mineral spirits (I did have a play with my copics but we'll put that one down to experience) lol Papers are Funky Fairy's , sentiment is computer generated and the other bits are from my stash.
Have a great weekend

Well here it is ..................................

My first card as part of the Digital Delights team. This is for the challenge this coming fortnight over on the sister blog Delighful Sketches.
Woohoooooooooooooo I am so excited to be part of this team. I love digi images anyway but Wendy's are just the bees knees. Do pop over to blog and have a little looksie, I promise you won't be disappointed!

Would you like to win 3 gorgeous images??? Then,you need to join the fun this fortnight with this gorgeous sketch.
It's easy peasy girls, grab yourself a Digital Delights image, follow the sketch to make your creation then add your name to Mr Linky and your done!!


Now onto my card. Meet Farmgirl Maggie. Isn't she just adorable? I've coloured her with prisma pencils, blended with a little mineral spirits then added a little stickles for some sparkle.
The papers are all from DCWV Citrus range and the ribbon and bling are from my stash.

This week Digital Delights are the sponsor on A Spoon Full of Sugar challenge, so that's another way to win some of these gorgeous downloads. Two chances in on week can't be bad now can it.

Funky Fairy's Fun Blog Hop

Welcome to the 1st Funky Fairy's Blog Hop to celebrate the merging of the Shop and Challenge Design Teams. We felt we had to celebrate with a "Funky Fairy" party . . . or a blog hop in this instance!

Now the theme this week over on the Challenge Blog is "Case It". This simply means that we have been looking at each others fab projects and choosing one to "CASE" (case is an acronym for Copy And Share Everything) so you create a project using someone else's work as your inspiration but do not need to copy it exactly.
Well as you can imagine all the DT members got involved & have pulled "a blinder" this week and if you follow the blog hop you will see all their brilliant projects.
Please do leave a comment on every blog you visit to be eligible for the fab prize being offered by Funky Fairy's Papercrafts (via the Inspirational Blog) . . . we will check you know!


This little beauty was made by our very own Emma. Isn't this the bees knees? She did a fabby job, I love it, especially the little candy buttons along the eaves of the roof.

Here's my attempt. I've used Shabby Christmastime papers as I thought it would make a lovely tree ornament hence the ribbon you can just see at the top of the picture.


Now you should have arrived here from Diana's blog. I hope you remembered to collect her letter but please don't forget to collect mine which is F or you'll be in a muddle at the end lol

At this point you should have six letters, including mine. So, now you need to need to pop over and visit Jilly to carry on the Funky Fun.

If you have not collected all the previous letters, or had a browse through the rules please pop back to the beginning of our blog hop over on the Inspiration Blog.

I've also put together a little candy just to help the celebrations along.


This candy will run until Friday 4th September
I'll announce the winner on Saturday 5th.

To be eligible to win the goodies just leave me a comment on this post telling me what your favourite set of Funky Fairy's papers are. Simples!!!!
Don't worry if you don't have a blog, just make sure you leave your email on the post so I can contact you.
It would be great if you also joined us in the challenge this week and became a follower of the Funky Fairy's blogs although that is not compulsory.
Last but not least, have fun girls!!
