Crackled teddy

With this card I played with some crackle paint, as I wanted a different look to what I normally do.  I must learn to become more patient waiting for the paint to crack, as I used my heat gun and it began to bubble in places, hey ho I'll remember for the next time.

Stamps: Teddy stamp from Rubbadubbadoo, Waltzingmouse Stamps text-it and say it loud
Cardstock: Core'dinations
Accessories: Cuttlebug, nesties, distress inks antique linen and brushed corduroy, distress crackle paint rock candy and wonderful metal corners from Nanny Maggie

I'm entering my cards into the following challenges this week:
Paperminutes - text as design
Totally Papercrafts Friday Challenges - metal

Thanks for looking,

Funky Fairys Challenge #15

This weeks challenge was a toughy for me on Funky Fairys, because Your challenge for week #15, if you wish to accept it, (and why not? You're brave), is to design a MALE/BOY themed card. I don't do male cards EEEK!. Anyway, I was dying to use my new Basic Grey Archaic pad, buttons and brads (which I bought from Sassy Crafts - Emma, am I on commission? LOL). I also used a stamp from Rubbadubbadoo. Thanks for looking.

CMUtd Challenge #5

Over on CMUtd challenge blog the new challenge is to make a New baby Card in NON traditional colours!! So I had a little play and this is what I came up with.

Thanks for looking.

Stamping Fairies Fun Sketch #14

Here's the new sketch chellenge from Stamping Fairies . I'm really ejoying working from sketches because sometimes I can sit for hours and not produce anything constructive - oh I can produce mess, loads of it that's not a problem for me LOL. Here is my attempt at this sketch, which is also an Easter card.

I'm still blogging

Another day, another posting. I've been busy crafting, I know shock horror LOL. I've made a card for someone to say sorry for forgetting their birthday opppps!, as I keep telling myself to get more organised, but again someone else slipped through the net!

I've posted a picture of the card, but for some reason it doesn't show up right, and it's too late to take another photo 'cause the card is already in the envelope ready for posting in the morning.

I used my new SU! goodies, thanks Fiona (check out her blog for great SU! goodies). The stamp set I used, is the Simply Said set, the card is also SU! and so is the gorgeous ribbon. Can't wait to place my next order :)

Also, I've managed to make some ATCs for a swap that I take part in on SplitCoastStampers (SCS) it's a great forum for learning different techniques and looking at all the new SU! goodies. Anyways here's a couple of ATCs that I've made. If you're having a look at SCS keep an eye out for the Global Girls!
