I've used one of the images and coloured her with Moss Green and Berry Red to fit with the 'Passion for ProMarkers' challenge this week...their twist was to include something tasty...so i used a candy cane! Yum! ^.^
I have also entered this card into the Cute Card Thursday challenge as they wanted 'stitching' on their cards.

♥ Basic Grey - Textures

The challenge over at Basic Grey this week is...Textures!
''For this weeks challenge we would like to see some texture on your creations, texture can be achieved is so many ways, but to name a few to give you some ideas, how about heat embossing, dry embossing, flock, felt, glitter, glossy accents, the list could go on...''......
I was in much need of a new 'notebook'. Just for scribbling down things that my little brain cell can't remember on it's own. The last one ( a fabby pressie from Shaz) is full and now has sheets of paper folded up inside which keep falling out! So a perfect time to make a new one. I should have taken a 'before' and 'after' photo but I was busily sticking paper to the cover before I remembered! Doh!
Anyway...it was a 'reduced to 98p', stripy, hard covered notebook with heaps of pages in it...so hopefully it'll last me a while! :0)Papers - Basic Grey - Sugared

♥ With Love

This weeks challenge 'in' the Sugar Bowl is ... 'Mother's Day' ... As Mothers Day here in the UK falls on March 22nd this year, please make a card (or other craft project) for a Mother. This does not have to be specifically a Mothers Day card, just something, you know, that a Mother would love!

I have to be honest and say that I have already made my Mother's Day card for my Mum...so... this is something that 'could' be used for a Mum...or indeed a special person! Hope that counts xI have used paper from DCWV 'Once Upon A Time'. I know...I know... how could I you ask?? :0) Well...as I said...it's for someone special so it's ok! It didn't hurt a bit! And in any case there's still another sheet of the same design...Phew!! :0) It is such beautiful paper that I haven't gone too mad with embellishments as the paper says it all really :)

♥ Blue & Brown...

The challenge at Colour Create this week is to use Blue & Brown. The extra option was to use lace and pearls too...however the brown lace I have was a bit too wide for what I wanted and the pearl is gold! In my 'land' gold comes into the brown colour family, so hopefully it'll pass the test! ^.^
I have used my sewing machine again...and one of the 'Gorjuss Girls' stamped images that Tina kindly sent in her parcel...I just love these girlies xPapers - I don't know, sorry!
