TRR Challenge #31 Lets Have Tea

Its another fortnightly challenge over at The Ribbon Reel.  The challenge is to use the photo below for inspiration and to include the colours in the picture.  Also to use a tea element, flowers and ribbon or lace.

Isn't the photo just so pretty?  I love all the organza and tulle so of course I hade to make my card using it and made another organza flower.

I have used papers, sentiment and digi stamp all from Pink Petticoat.  I think I use it alot but I just love the papers and they are so easy to store, right there on your computer. just print and go.

I have added some strips of ribbon, papers flowers and lace to finish.

I'm a winner

WOW, I can't believe it.  I have won a challenge over at Card Patterns.  I am so excited the stamp set is just so cute.

Come on Sunshine!!!

Another wet day which means I get to do more crafting even though I should be doing some housework,  oops never mind!!!

So here is my wet day creation:

I have used papers and sentiment from Pink Petticoat.  The stamps are from Kanban which I have paper pieced.  I love this technique especially as my colouring with pro markers isn't very good and needs more practice.

This card is for the following challenges:

A Gem of a Challenge - Challenge 49 - Buttons, bows, bling and butterflies
Daring Card Makers  - You're So Sweet
Fairy Tale Challenge Blog - Challenge 44 - Soft Colour Tones

Soft and Sweet

Its my last week as The Shabby Tea Room's guest designer.  I have had great fun working alongside some really talented ladies.  Thank you for this wonderful opportunity.

To this weeks challenge and its to create a card or project inspired by the colours in the photo below.

I have made a card and a matching treat box using papers from Pink Petticoat and the sweetie jars came from HERE.

I have then added some beads and glitter to look like sweets in the jars.

The sweetie pouch can be download for free from Waltzing Mouse Stamps.

My daughter the crafter

I just had to share this with you all.  My daughters Mother and Father's Day present.  My husband and I were so thrilled when she came home from school with these.

She had made a bracelet for me and a little clip photo holder for daddy.  I just love the photo that her school teacher had taken holding the heart, so sweet.

Well done sweetie!!!

Card Patterns Sketch 170

Two posts in one day, well the weather is rubbish today so what better way to spend the day is doing a bit of crafting and its another fantastic sketch this week over at Card Patterns with lots of lovely inspiration.  I wanted to make a card that would be suitable for a male.

So here it is:

I have used papers and digi stamp from Pink Petticoat and added my own sentiment.  I have kept it very simple and just added the punched hearts and a little lace.

Ribbon Girl Colour Challenge and A Hole In One

Just a card to share that I have made for a couple of challenges.

The challenge over at The Ribbon Girl is to use the colours Pink, Purple and Green and to use the inspiration picture below.

and over at Daring Cardmakers is to use your die cuts and punches in reverse.  I have used the hole left by my heart punch.

The papers and the sentiment I have used are from Pink Petticoat and I have made the flower using pink paper and organza.
