ho ho ho

Good morning, this week  at Fab'n' Funky  we have a Christmas-themed challenge for you...anything Christmas goes! I made 3 cards (that's a batch for me!) featuring my favourite Santa stamp from MFT, this jolly little guy always makes me smile! He's stamped onto white card, coloured with copics a few stamps added then matted onto red card and attached to card blank...Quick and easy, I might even make some more!

If you haven't started your Christmas makes yet (or even if you have) and are stuck for inspiration just hop over to Fab'n'Funky to see what goodies my teamies have come up with this week.!

Thanks for visiting today

Good morning, we have a new challenge for you at Sweet Stampin', this week's theme is Halloween -and/or orange and black. I made a card with the cute Punkinhead, a Mo Manning freebie gift to her Patreons- if you want to know more about this just click on the link. The gorgeous pumpkin digi paper behind the image was also a freebie! I used copics to colour, added the black and white striped paper, orange bow 3 little brads and a stamped 'Boo' - a perfect Halloween card for the youngest granddaughters!

I used a sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday

Crafty Catz Challenge #480 - Optional Twist- Let's play dress up!

Good morning, it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Catz, this week we are sponsored by Some Odd Girl with a lovely prize of -

$10 Gift Voucher to the winner but if the winner used a sponsors stamps on their project It is doubled to $20. 

Entrants can use code "CC20" for the duration of the challenge for 20% digis in the shop  

https://www.someoddgirl.com/

It's our super talented Nick's turn to host and she's picked a fun (optional) theme- Let's Play Dressing Up.

The DT were each allowed to choose an image to play with- I (eventually!) chose the cute T Rex Dog because it made me smile...the thought of dressing up my dog is mind boggling, she's a gentle giant but I'm not sure if she'd eat me first or the costume!.Anyway, here he is  in all his glory, coloured with copics, a bit of random stamping around the edges of the image. Papers are from Doodlebug, die cut stars and sentiment.

There are loads of beautiful cards using these fun images over at Crafty Catz so do hop over and take a look. We'd love to see what you make of this fun theme, so why not play along...or ignore the theme and play along anyway!

Thanks for stopping by, 

have a good day.

Seriously!!!

Good morning, it's my turn to host the challenge at Fab'n' Funky this week, which means I got to chose the theme...yay, I do love a bit of power :))) Being a very kind hearted person I chose a really easy one- Feature a Creature, so any creature, real or fantasy, and any occasion is acceptable.

I'm sharing the birthday card I made for my brother...he's a doggy person...and old...(ok he's 5 years younger than I am, but that's still pretty old!). The stamp is from Stamping Bella, not sure of the stamped sentiment, the die cut 'seriously' is Picket Fence Studios. I used a very old Paw Print stamp from Do Crafts to stamp the background. 

There's plenty more ideas from my team mates  over at Fab'n'Funky, so pease hop over take a look...it would be great if you choose to join us this week with your own beautiful creations.

Thanks for looking, have a fabulous day!
