Those pesky Gremlins!

Good morning everyone

I hope everyone is well this cold, frosty morning.  It's nice to be back!  I've been having computer problems and seem to be up and running this morning even though it might be temporary, I thought I'd take advantage of the connection and post a card.

I've used a Forever Friends stamp for the main image and the sentiment tags are LOTV, coloured with ProMarkers, Stickles glitter glue and ribbon from stash.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Sweet Stampin' Challenge - Cause for Celebration

Totally Papercrafts - Add a Bow

Fingers crossed the Gremlins have gone!

Thanks for popping by, enjoy the weekend and keep warm.

Polar Sledging!

Hello!

The weekend is here again!

Today I've been playing with another of my new LOTV stamps.  This one is Sledging Buddies and I think it's rather cute!  I've coloured with my ProMarkers and teamed it with Country Companions Christmas Wishes papers, Memory Box die, ribbon from the local craft shop (but I think the online ones stock it too!).  The holographic card, gem and peel off are from my stash.  I've used white glitter and Glamour Dust for the snow.  

I would like to enter this in the following challenges:

Lili of the Valley - Anything Goes (2nd entry)
The Ribbon Girl - Lovely Lili Challenge Anything Goes
Crafty Little Fairies - Christmas in October
Stamping Sensations - All Creatures Great & Small (2nd entry)

Hedgie Birthday

Hello

I hope your weekend is getting off to a good start.

 

For my card today I have used my new stamp from Penny Black (well, new to me) "Mighty Wishes", coloured with ProMarkers and some Pearly Stuff (Woodware) for the icing.  The Happy Birthday stamp is Papermania.  I think the papers and glitter card are Dovecraft but I can't be certain as I've had them a while. The banner is a Memory Box die and the balloons are an Impression Obsession die.

I would like to enter this in the following challenges:

Papertake Weekly - Two by Two (2 hedgehogs, 2 papers, 2 dies, 2 balloons)
Penny Black & More - Anything Goes
Stamping Sensations - All Creatures Great and Small
The Ribbon Girl - Make it Sparkly (2nd entry)

Hello

I hope your Monday hasn't been too bad today.

Why is it that cards don't always turn out quite how you think they will? I was quite pleased with this until it came to finding a sentiment to use and now it doesn't feel quite right. Anyhow, it will have to do for now, hopefully I will find something I'm happier with before December!

The stamp is obviously Forever Friends but I can't remember the name as I no longer have the packaging but it's one of their transparent ones.  It is coloured with ProMarkers, papers are Country Companions Christmas Wishes and I've used lots of Stickles crystal for the snow and around the edges.  The button is from a local haberdashery and the ribbon from my stash. 

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

I love Promarkers - Songs (Christmas Carols....)
Passion for Promarkers - Lots of Legs
The Ribbon Girl - Make it Sparkly
Winter Wonderland - Buttons and Bows

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a good week.
