A Happy Scramper

Authentique Blissful Range

Hi there.....how's your day going? Hope it's GREAT:-))

Just popping in to share a few cards I've created for Shop and Crop with the beautiful new Authentique Blissful range.....sooooo pretty:-)

For my 3 cards I've used the Blissful 6x6 Bundle - full of delicious patterns, some loud, some soft so you have a wide range of options. With the papers I've included a few of the Tabloids - two sided cardstock elements - perfect for sentiments and scrapbook titles.

 
Add a quick sentiment from the stamps you have on hand and your card is complete:-)

Look at that beautiful damask aaaaaaaah......such a fun range to play with....papercrafting bliss:-)

Well time for me to make myself a cuppa and do a bit of blog hopping.

Thanks for your visit today....Cheers!

The Shabby Tea Room Challenge

Hey there....Happy Sunday morning to you! 

I'm back to share my card for this week's Shabby Tea Room Challenge. Charlene has given us this puurrty inspiration pic and a few guidelines to base our project on.....

.....she asks that we create a card or project with TWO PATTERNED PAPERS (manufactured or handmade), FOUR BUTTONS AND SIX LAYERS!

I just love the look of all those sweet coloured doilies all lined up - I was inspired to die my own doily, incorporate some of the same colours and then it was no mean feat to limit it to JUST 6 layers.......I really wanted to add a flower or ribbon/twine....but the whole "just 6 layers" deal put an end to that lol :-)

Anyway here's my card....

Patterned Paper: MME Fine and Dandy

Stamps: TSG Sentimental

Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa; Distress Ink Refills to colour doily - Worn Lipstick and Faded Jeans

Embellishments: Glimmer Mist (Turquoise) on Tattered Angels Regal Ornate Chipboard Frame; Fine and Dandy Pom Pom Trim; Buttons from Spotlight

 I hope you have a lovely Sunday ahead of you....thanks for visiting my little piece of blogland:-)

I'll be back - I have more to share soon!

Verve Week 4

 

Hi there...how's your weekend going?

It's a warm one here...now that the washing's under control I'm enjoying a little crafting and I've attacked the last VERVE Sketch for this month. I've worked hard on my 4 cards for this month....I really would like to win some wonderful Verve stamps so I'll keep giving it my best shot....it's heaps of fun with these great sketches....here's No.4....

 
I wanted to play with some Shabby Chic goodies so I pulled out my Kaisercraft English Rose paper pad and die cuts, some tea dyed twill, a few Prima roses, my Bird Notes Clear Art Stamps and a glittered Bella Chipz frame and here's the result....

 
Boy I had fun with this card :-)) I think I had a smile on my face the whole time I was making it lol.Talk about good therapy!

 

If you're interested, this card is available in my Card Shop.

Tonight I'll be busy working on the next CARD KIT for Shop and Crop. Lots of yummy goodies in the March Kit for you to enjoy.

I'll be back to share more soon....thanks for popping in!

CAS Notecards - Verve and CR84FN

 

Hey there...how was your day?

Great day here....my day "off" is always a great day I have to say:-))

I had time for some creative play...first off I needed to restock my note cards...I go through a lot of these throughout the year....popping them in with cards I make, mail I send....that sort of thing. So I kept these clean and simple - very unlike me but they'll serve their purpose very well....

 
Stamps are from PTI's Turning A New Leaf set, Mega Mixed Messages and SU!'s Sweet Little Sentiments and Really Retro sets.

Next I have my card for Verve's Feb Week 3 Sketch....which looks like this....

 
I combined the sketch with the latest colours over at Mona's Create4Fun Colour Challenge...

 ...bright and beautiful aren't they:-)

So here's my card....

 

 
Patterned Paper:  Kaisercraft Lush and October Afternoon

Stamps:  There She Goes Sentimental Set

Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black

Embellishments: kaisercraft Lush Chipboard and Die Cuts; Pink Paislee Ruffled Darlings Trim; Jenny Bowlin Rhinestone Button.

Well I hope the rest of the week is wonderful for you. Thanks for spending some time with me today.
