Digi Bells Christmas card

Do you remember me telling you about the new Elizabeth Bell Designs challenge blog? Well there is a blog hop at the Digi Bells DT blog. The DT have asked us to make a christmas card using an Elizabeth Bell image. This super cute image of Willow, came from Whiff of Joy, but I'm not sure you can get it anymore. But if you're not familiar with Whiff of joy, you can be sure they have plenty more for you to agonise over, LOL! I decided on a tea light gift card. I've made a fair few of these recently. They are just perfect for the people who have everything. Thanks for looking. Enjoy your week x

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?

Scrap it with a song time again! This week we have the classic from Pat Boone, Winter Wonderland. This song just makes you warm inside thinking about christmas, doesn't it? Our sonspor this week is the Stamping Boutique, who have the most adorable digital images. I've used one of their digi stamps on my card. I used "Natalie" and I think she is just so cute. I teamed her with some papers from Papermania and a sentiment from Autumn Leaves stamps. Don't forget when you play along you can use any part of the song for inspiration, not just the title. So come and give it a try!

Scrap that Poetry!

2 posts in one day! Shows I'm making up for lost time and catching up with my DT posting for Scrap that poetry! We have a fab poem this fortnight. Its A prayer for a great family. Its so beautiful how it says a big thank you to Mother Earth for all the beautiful creations around us. I took my inspiration from the "clouds, lakes, rivers" part of the poem. The photo was taken in Italy a few years ago at Lake Maggiore. I visited 4 of the lakes and they were just stunning! Not bad for a work training trip. Click here for the poem and to see how the DT have interpreted it. I hope you join in and show us how you thank Mother Earth!

Its a round up!

Our scrapwhispers challenge this week is to create a summery page. Could be whats happened in your week, your year, your birthday cakes, christmas', the pets you've had, houses you've lived in... so you get it right? That should be enough inspiration for you, LOL. I chose to round up photos of DD from baby to 4 years, but can you spot the error? Yep I missed a year. I told you me and math were not friends!! :) The papers, element stickers and alphas are from Echo Park, Life is good collection. Once you've done your entry don't forget to link it up on the scrapwhispers main page (top right corner - November entries) to be in with your chance to win some gorgeous papers and 2 magnolia stamps!! Enjoy!!

Scrapwhispers november blog hop

Hello! Well, first an apology to those of you trying to find the blog hop post. I actually wrote all this out for the blog hop (a day late I must add) and ditsy ole me must have forgotten to press the publish key as I've just had a look and seen its not on the blog!!! Aarrrgggggghhh! All I can say I've had a horrible week with 2 children with a sickness bug and teething thrown in as well. Right, Onto the blog hop! Our lovely Georgina has shown us how to create this lovely tri-shutter card. I have to say, when I first saw it I thought it would be really complicated, but its turned out to be really easy and simple. I've used papers from Basic Grey wassail and I just love this stamp of snowman soup!! Here is your hop list:

ABC...It's easy as 1,2,3

Scrap it with a song's song this week is the Jackson 5's ABC. My layout is about me going back to school to do GCSE Maths. I don't know why I thought it would be easier the second time round as me and numbers are just not friends, but my kids are my inspiration. I just want to be able to help them with their homework.
