Purple & Green

Have been trying to get time to enter The Sugar Bowl challenge for the last fortnight, I really couldn't pass up a challenge that included using Purple could I?


I've used the fab sketch from Maria Therese and also the optional theme of Purple & Green.
Image is the beautiful Faith digi from Sugar Nellie (no prizes for guessing why I bought this one), coloured with promarkers.
papers are all Stampin' Up, MS Doily Lace punch, Tim Holtz mini rosette die, Craftwork Cards greeting.


I'd like to enter her into 
The Sugar Bowl - sketch plus purple & green
 Promarkers - anything goes
Digital Tuesday - pretty punches
Stamp with Fun - birthday


Have you booked your place on our Girls just want to have fun crafty day on the 28th May? There are still a few places left, so don't hang around. You'll find all the details on the post below.

Silver Darlings

I'm finally allowed to post pics of this card - have been sworn to secrecy for the last couple of weeks. One of my regular customers asked me to make a 25th anniversary card for her friends. The only stipulation she had was that she wanted me to include a pic of them on their wedding day and a recent pic . Well I'm not in the habit of making cards with photographs, but this is what I came up with. I thought the best way to show off the 2 photos would be to do a double easel card - and this one took ages to figure out, because I had to carefully measure everything for the edge and corner punches.



The papers are all Wild Rose Studios - Wedding Bells, MS Cherish PATP punches, papermania ribbon bows, silver mirri card, and I printed the years and greeting on the pc.


I have some fantastically exciting news to tell you, but I can't tell you until I get clearance from the high heidyins! Hopefully tomorrow they will remove my gag and I can spill the beans, so watch this space... 


and lastly for today - check this face out, believe it or not, Willow is actually 6, not 16!!


New Baby 1
