MAWTT#42.....Clare W's Challenge

Hi Everyone

Due to Clare W's internet being down we are running a day late with the challenge this week. Because of this we are running the challenge through to Friday morning. Check the blog for full details.
We are lucky enough to be sponsored this week by some great friends of mine.... Stitchy Bear Stamps. They will be sponsoring us every 6 weeks so keep an eye out for some fab digi stamps being showcased by us DT. This week we were lucky enough to have Stitchy & Cowgirl Up images to play with.Using Clare W's sketch & Cowgirl Up's image I created this cute box.

I used my Crafters Companion to score out the card to create the box. I then coloured my image using my pens & glittered the halo. I used 2 different organza ribbons & a jewelled brad.

Here is a close up of the image that I have used.

Check back later to see what else I have been up to over the last few days xx Clare x

Tracy has been working hard again & has created a fab new Paper Piecing cd called Pondlife. Here is a card that I have made using one of the great fun frogs from it. I have entered it into the following challenges

Theme......Humour......Cards For Men
Theme.......One For The Boys.......A Spoon Full of Sugar

I just love the way you can have the tongue hanging out on this. Great for any man or teenager that needs a bit of fun their way. x Clare x

Playing Catch Up

Hi Everyone

I am finally beginning to get caught up a bit with this week's DT bits & pieces. The challenge I set over at MAWTT this week was to create an Easel Card. I love these types of cards. You can make them as simple or as complicated as you like & they still look great. We have again a fab new sponsor this week so make sure you pop over to the blog & check it out. The card I have created was also meant for last weeks OSAAT challenge but I never got chance to post it up.

MAWTT#40 - Pink, Brown & Ribbon




Well I hope you are all surviving the weather this week. Well it is Bank Holiday this weekend so it isn't surprising that the weather is not how we want it lol!!!

Well what great cards you all created last week, you all obviously loved the sponsor!!!

This week we have another new sponsor for you.... it's Lauretta from Lauretta's Digital Stamps & we have again been blessed in the DT by having wonderful images to play with. Heidi's sketch was so nice to use although I have noticed I have missed off the flowers & ribbon..... oops!!!

All the papers I have used have been freebies from a magazine so I loved how cheap this card was to make. The image from Lauretta is What Are You Thinking Fairy.

I am away in Sandy, Beds this weekend doing a craft show so I hope you all have a great Easter weekend & get lots of yummy choccy. x Clare x
