Alter It!

Morning :)

I can't believe it's Thursday AGAIN!!! It's scary as to where the time goes, but onwards we go! :)

This week at Mo's challenge our theme is 'Alter It'...so we'd like to see all those pots, jars, and boxes...not to mention CD's, children's board books etc! Just make sure it's not someone's favourite before you start though!!!! *.*

I've used the gorgeous 'Bossy' image from Mo...don't you just love that little face and pointy finger? ^.^ And I've altered a coffee jar then filled it with sweets...which, by all accounts I don't think you should touch!!!! *.*

A Christmas Scene...

Morning all! And a chilly one it is at that!!

Today I have a card made with the new Trinitage sheets from La Pashe. These are so easy to do and a great price too :)

Full of Sparkle!

Hi all...another busy week has flown by...and we're another week closer to Christmas! Eeeek!! :)

This week for Mo's challenge Paola (our hostess for the month of September) has asked us to make our creations with the theme 'Bling it On' ...So dig out all your sparkle...glitter, rhinestones, gems etc and come and play!!

I've used Fairy Tabia and she is available to purchase from...HERE...

Make It Crafty - Anything Goes!!

Morning all x

Today starts the BRAND NEW fun challenges from Make it Crafty!! Yay! These will be every fourth Wednesday of the month. This month's challenge is an easy one to get you all going...it's ANYTHING GOES. You can choose whatever you like, theme, colour, sketch, etc

I used the fabulous 'Slimy House' and 'Sapphire Sitting' images...and merged them using Word, so that Sapphire is sitting on the toadstool. I've coloured them using TH distress inks. Slimy House has become 'Snowy' in this scene ... just perfect for Christmas :)

If you've not bumped into our lovely Zoe, and the wonderful digi's she has in her shop, you just NEED to go and see them for yourself! There are goodies to win with this challenge too...so go on...you know you want to play along!!

Bright White at Mo's!

Is it just me, or are the weeks on fast forward at the moment??? We're half way through September already and the summer holidays are becoming a distant memory! But hey...the nights are drawing in and it's another good excuse to stay in the warm and craft!!

This week, Paola has set us a fabulous challenge at Mo's...Bright White! I just love the fresh, clean look of white cards and with the new Christmas images from Mo, I just had to make a baby Christmas card. I have made another Criss Cross card...I'm loving these...and have used the gorgeous image First Christmas ...

It's Elisabeth Bell Digi Day!!!

Yay!! It's time for us to share with you the Sept Digi from our fabulously talented Elisabeth Bell!

Now, some of you may think...huh??? Others will totally understand this image!! Lol

She is called 'Catch of the Day' and it's based on a photo of Elisabeth's little girl, which she took whilst sitting in her shopping trolley...as they do!! :0)

I have tried to give the illusion of a playroom with toys over the floor, with a lovely picture hanging on the wall!! Much like my house!! lol

Don't forget to nip across to the Digi Bells DT blog to find all the other great things the girls have made, and follow the links to all their blogs where you'll find their Sept digi creations x

Folds and Flowers for Mo...

Yay...it's a sunny Surrey morning...typical, now that the girls are back at school! It's been another hectic week here, but I'm hoping some sort of normality will resume now. My crafting is my sanity and I'm starting to catch up with that now, so it's not all bad :)

This weeks challenge at Mo's runs with the theme of 'Folds and Flowers' ...chosen by our hostess of the month Paola. We'd love to see any type of fold, and don't forget the flowers.....as if!!! :0)

I have made a 5x5 square card and then added a smaller gate fold card to the front of it...just remember to add the ribbon to the back of the gate fold before sticking to the base card. And yes... I speak from experience!! lol

Have fun all...gotta dash as I need to take Mum to fracture clinic soon xx

Just Inklined Blog Hop...B & B

Morning all!

Well the first day back at school has arrived, so hopefully there's time for a nice cuppa and a blog hop with Just Inklined!! We are hopping this month with the 'B & B' theme...otherwise known as 'Buttons & Bows' :)

I have used the gorgeous Little Church in the Snow image, which is not only great for Christmas but also for winter weddings too. The image is set behind an acetate window and Stickles have been added to give it a lovely sparkle. The buttons and ribbons on my project were supplied by Fantastic Ribbons...who have the most scrumptious and yummy ribbons and buttons ever!!

The other DT girls will have some fantastic work for you to see I'm sure...so enjoy!! If you came here from the ever so talented ...Karen...then you're on the right track...if not, then hop on back to Toni and she will point you in the right direction. The next person to call on from here is the fabby Debbie.

Have fun!! x

Just Like Me!!

Good morning!

It's Thursday...and that means it's 'MO day'! Yay! This week the challenge set by Paola, is just like me...aged/antique!! Lol

Using browns and creams and having the aged/antique look, we would love to see what you come up with this week x

I have used the lovely Bride and Groom, plenty of TH Distress inks and a coating of the most gorgeous shimmer spray.
