Friday Sketchers Challenge #45

Hi there! Here is my entry for this week's Friday Sketchers Challenge.

I am really, really pleased with the result and I'm glad to have made a card I like because I have previously made two cards that I don't like very much, so I'm glad.

My mum stamped out some of her Anya images for me so this is my first Anya card! I love the Anya images as I think they are really cute and they are a pleasure to colour.

This particular Anya came with two little outfits to colour so I picked this little dress and then raised it up off her body with foam squares.

Materials:

Image: Anya

Sentiment: Kolette Hall

Star Gem: PaperMania

Big White Flower: From Sarita

Small Turquoise Flower: Prima

Metal Flower: From Sarita

Brad: From Sarita
Backing Paper: From Sarita

Ribbon: From Sarita
Button: Unknown

Thanks! Love from, Georgia xxxx

High Hopes Challenge #23 And Charisma Cardz Challenge #11

Hi there. Here is the card I am entering for this week's Charisma Cardz Challenge and High Hopes Challenge.

I really like the High Hopes range of stamps.

Materials:

Flowers: Unknown - From Lisa

Backing Paper: Unknown - From Lisa

Ribbon: From Tab

Sentiment: Penny Black

Pearl Buttons: Unknown

The theme for High Hopes this week is 'buttons galore' so I used some little pearlised buttons without holes. On Charisma Cardz I had to follow a sketch.

Thank you for looking!

Crafty Monkeys Guest Designer

Hello! I have been selected to be this fortnight's guest designer on Zoe's challenge blog: Crafty Monkeys.

The theme was Easter so I raided my stuff and found some suitable things to use.

I experimented with panels this time. There were going to be three panels and the card was going to be wider to fit the other panel on but when I was sticking it down, I stuck it lopsided so I tried to peel it off and straighten it but the glue had started to go tacky and it ripped. Oh well! :)

Materials:

Image: High Hopes - From Nikki

Sentiment: Printed off the computer

Backing Paper: From Jo

Big Pink Flower: From Sarita

Small Pink Flower: From Michele

Small White Flower: From Michele

Flower Stamp: Unknown

Thanks for looking!

Birthday Gifts!

Hi there! I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for all my beautiful cards and crafting goodies sent to me for my birthday. I'm sorry I haven't posted before now but I've been snowed under with a long-winded history project and I've only just finished it - good riddance to it, tee hee!
I was going to include some pictures of all the lovely things I've received so it would be like a proper gallery but my computer started playing up because there was so much memory in all the pictures so I wasn't able to. Sorry about that.
I had a lovely birthday and all the things I've had made my day. I was overwhelmed with all that I got sent and I'm having lots of fun using it! Thank you so much!
I will thank you all individually after I have finished this post.
Thank you again! :D

Update:

I will take this opportunity to post a couple of pictures of the birthday card I made for my mum - her birthday was today.
