Watch Out There's a Bunny About!!

This is my entry for this weeks Daring Cardmakers challenge, which is all things circular. Sooooooo I dug out my Circle Cutter that I got from C&C many moons ago. I remember now why it was in the back of the drawer!
After it had chewed up 4 sheets of card and I was less than happy, I managed to cut a couple of circles which I joined together with eyelets and ribbon.
The backing paper is DCWV which is really getting used now.
The image is from a clear set of Penny Black stamps and is very cute. She won't hop away because I had to cut her feet off to get her to fit!!. Calm down dear it's only a card lol. I've coloured her with Inktense and embossed it all with clear embossing powder over new Versamark Champagne pad. This is great, my old Versamark was filthy so I treated myself to a new one. It gives a very subtle goldy shimmery finnish - very nice.
The circle cutter is now at the bottom, at the back of the drawer again!
The card also fits in well with the challenge at Craft Swap Forum where the theme is Easter.
I really need to get away from the computer now, but it's gonna be hard to move. Have a great Sunday and thanks for looking xx

Let Them Eat Cake....

This weeks challenge over at Penny Black is Something to Eat. This is the 1st stamp I ever bought by Penny Black, and luckily it has a cake on it.
The image has been coloured with my Inktense pencils, I would not be without these now as they are so quick and easy to use, and I always seem to be in a rush!
The papers are all DCWV as is the sentiment sticker.
A couple of my trusty Prima's and it's all ready for the post (see what I mean about always in a rush lol)
Thanks very much for looking and enjoy your Sunday dinners xx

You Have To Kiss A Few Frogs.....


so they say, before you find your prince!
I've just discovered the Imaginisce range of stamps and I've fallen in love with them. They are really cute and easy to work with. The sketch is from the Truly Scrumptious

challenge site, this is a new blog and they don't mind if your entry is also for another challenge. As I seem to have got the challenge bug this is great 'cos there just arn't enough crafting hours to enter 'em all!
My new best froggy friend is great for the Daring Cardmakers challenge which is frogs or fish.
The papers are all DCWV from last years QVC TSV's.
That's it from me for a few days 'cos its back to work tomorrow. Thanks very much for looking x

Penny Black Saturday Challenge Romance


I was a bit stuck this week for a 'romance' challenge, as none of my stamps were what you could call romantic. Soooooo I cut his party hat off and stuck him onto a heart lol.
The image is a bit small for a large card, but my OH thinks that small cards are only for people that you don't like that much !!
I got a bit adventurous with the ribbon, then discovered that it was a real tight fit for the nesties, but just managed to wedge 'em in!!
The backing paper is part of a DCWV kit, and the love stamp is a clear stamp that I got from USA last year - thank goodness customs didn't want to look in my suitcase lol.
A lovely challenge, and thanks for looking. xx
