http://southerngirlschallenge.blogspot.com/2011/06/challenge-21-anything-goes.htmlhttp://thepapershelter.blogspot.com/

This is Lylah, a stamp from Tickled Pink Stamps Victorian range, very cute.  Ive used vintage blue flat surface card, with a peach flocked spot card - from tea at Elsies by Kaisercraft.  Some handmade black paper which is embossed with crystalina sits on top of the  white doily  from W.O. Crafts as are the flowers.  The tag is the new die out from Magnolia - along with hearts flourish. The edging is punched with a Martha Stewart round the page punch set, and finally the sentiment is from Whimsey stamps. Im entering this card Tickled Pink Emmas sketch, Southern Girls Anything Goes, and The paper Shelter challenge 18 punches and dies.  Tks for looking have a great day :-)

WINTER

This is a card that makes you feel chilly.  The challenge over at Craft and Create is to depict the season where you live.  Ive used the very cute Wee stamp called winter fairy and coloured her with w/c  pencils, the wings and snow are glittered with stickles.The sentiment is sitting on the new Doo Hickey tag die, along with the Magnolia heart swirl. I have added some beads to the crystal pin which is nice for a change.  The flowers are from W.Orchid.  Have a nice day and thanks for looking :-)

Celebration

Good morning, a dull gloomy day, just right for indoors!  I have made this card for my brother in laws 63rd  birthday.  Hes a hard case and likes a joke, so I though that this would be ideal.  The image is another cutie  from The Paper Shelter.
Ive covered the dancers costume withred glitter and she has diamonds for a necklace.  The checked paper is from Pavlova, and the stars I stamped out myself, the sentiments I made myself and ribbon is from my stash.  Im entering this card in the celebration challenge over at The Paper Shelter. 

Xmas Card

Getting started early for Xmas cards lol,  this is a Tickled Pink stamp called Lestat, and hes cool.  I made his hat, so that he looks nice and Xmas like.  Other than Santa there are not many male images for Xmas cards.  The papers are from Kaisercraft Xmas range from last year, and the sentiment I made.  Ive entered this card into Southern Girls challenge and a Chrstmas challenge over at tickled pink.  The sun is out so am hoping to have a nice day. Thanks for looking :-)

Queens Birthday Weekend in NZ

Its been a while, dont know where the time goes.  Ive asssembled a new version of this easel card which I have always had a soft spot for. This is a stamp from tickled pink stamps called Evie.  Ive put some hat netting over the top half of the image for a different twist, and an ostrich feather for a bit of glam.  I have entered this card over at Claudia and Co challenge for fancy folds.  Hope to get some more cards made today, its windy and getting chilly.

This is the card opened, its simple, but some times less is more.  The black checked paper is from pavaloa papers. Flowers, pins, gems from stash.  Lace edging punch from Martha Stewart.  Thanks for looking, have a nice long weekend :-)

Anything Goes

Good Morning, Ive completed this cute little card for two challenges:  Anything Goes at The Paper Shelter,  Dies to die for over at Lets Craft and Create and the Southern Girls Challenge, Pearls and Lace.

Im into these colours at the moment, peach and a vintage blue.  Thank you for looking, have a nice weekend :-)

Distress challenge

This little card is for the TPS distress challenge # 21.
The stamp is Lil Lolita Lilith, isnt she stunning.  Recipe is brown cardstock, craft card, film strip 7 gypsys, birdcage kaisercraft, flowers wild orchid, stamps for sentiments whimsey.  Netting from stash, the muslin flower was made out of my old hippie dress from the 60s, hey I wont be wearing it again so thought it would be a good idea to recycle it, so Ive made a start.  The lace punch for the edge is from Martha Stewart.
Didnt have to get new tyres for my car, just some new hoses that came from out of town so it had a sleep over at the Toyota Garage.  I though $325.00 was expensive for 2 hoses lol!  Thanks for looking :-)
