Scrapwhispers - Minty Fresh!!

A fresh challenge for you for the beginning of Spring! This is our last challenge of this month so if you want to be in with a chance of winning a fab prize then get stuck in. All we want you to do is to create a card or a layout using the colours - Brown, mint green and white... Immediately my mind goes to images of Fry's peppermint creams. Mmmmmm! But thats because I can't diet for my life! :) So are you going to get fresh with us?? See you there!

Another Tiddly Inks shaker card

Here is the other shaker card, as promised. This Image from Tiddly Inks is called "Take me away" and this is what I am aiming for this very evening. A nice relaxing bubble bath. Usually my bath time consists of 2 little monkys who cover each other in the bubbles or one particular monkey who tries to climb in!! Inside the shaker part I've put a few clear dew drops. Some of them move but some are stuck.. I think they were a bit too wide for the foam pads I used. Never mind, I like the idea of floating bubbles anyway. Same as yesterday's card, I've added a little bit of lace around the frame and a few tea roses. The papers are MME Tickled Pink. The countdown to bedtime has begun so wish me luck for a bath like this one. :)

Shake it!!

I've just bought another couple of images from Tiddly inks and Thought I'd have a try at the tiddly Inks challenge - Which is to make a shaker card. I don't think I've ever done a shaker card before and I actually quite liked it! I've used "catch my heart", and DD came out from school today with some gold heart sequin so I borrowed a couple of those to put in my shaker bit. The sketch I used was from Cute card Thursday. I've done another shaker card with a different Tiddly Inks image but you'll have to wait for that one.

Big Wishes

I can't get over just how adorable this image is! As I was colouring it in I kept thinking "I want cake!!" LOL Its Big Wishes jelly bean from Tiddly Inks, digi stamp. I followed a couple of challenges for this card. Colour create has Chocolate, Strawberry and cream colour scheme and the sketch I used was from Sketch saturday. These scrummy papers are are tickled pink by MME, and a bit of BG Hopscotch. Lovely strokeable patterns.... or is that just me?? :p

Basic Grey Thank you Teacher

I've been getting back into making cards again recently. Super quick and easy, but therapeutic at the same time. This one is for DD's teacher. Its a little bit (ok, a lot) early but I'm trying to stay more prepared and organised this year.... :s I'm entering this one into the Basic Grey challenges where there is a lovely sketch to follow. I've used the Hopscoth collection. Its sooo pretty! The image is a digi stamp from Claudia and co and as usual she has been coloured in with my promarkers. That blackboard is my favourite thing!

Go Green with Scrapwhispers

This weeks challenge we want you to recycle something on your cards, layouts, projects! On my card, I recycled a bead and a charm. This fab image is from Tiddly Inks. I'm getting a bit hooked on digi stamps. So what will you reuse on your project? For more inspiration visit the Scrapwhispers blog and see what the DT have done for this challenge! Have fun!

Scrapwhispers blog hop

Our lovely Nilsa has come up with a lovely tutorial for bunting (or banners). These are everywhere at the moment for cards, scrapbooking, home decor, everywhere! I thought I'd make one for a valentines display, even though it's not celebrated much over here, Why not break the mould every now and then? And it actually looks lovely with the roses I got. For mine I used Echo Park Be Mine papers and element stickers. Want to give it a try?? Hop back on over to the scrapwhispers blog for the DT hop list! Don't forget we also have our smurf challenge on for you as well!!
