Sparkle or bling challenge at Winter Wonderland

Good morning all

We have  a new Christmas challenge starting at 

Winter Wonderland

the theme is 

Sparkle or bling

I decided to create a page in my art journal

 because I  was totally inspired by this lovely image that I got to choose from our sponsor 

Called Winter Wonders

available HERE

our sponsor this week is 

Crafty Sentiment Designs

I really enjoyed creating this page.  I love just being messy and the result of having another page in my journal when I've finished, it's a different feeling to making  just another card

This is what i did....

Image - Winter Wonders from Crafty Sentiment Designs

Assorted stamps from MFT, Leonie Pujol and Crafty individuals

Image coloured with Spectrum Noir sparkle pens and Colourblend pencils

Page coloured with TH distress inks and sparkle pens

Hope you'll join in with us this week

This one's a challenge!!

Good Morning all

It's time to start getting those Christmas cards on the go

Yes really!!

We are starting off our Christmas challenges again at 

Winter Wonderland

and our theme is

Add Lace

and for me that is a challenge! - I don't really like lace : ( 

in fact in truth I don't really like this card - but I think the lace got in the way of my mojo lol 

- I'd even go as far to say I liked it better before the lace!!

but such is the life of a DT girl - a challenge it is and we can't like them all

We are sponsored this week by the fab

Crafty Sentiments

who are offering a prize of  3 digis for the winner

Here is my card made with a precoloured topper from LOTV

This is what I did....

Image - precoloured from LOTV artpad (what a shame that these are discontinued)

Card and paper is from my stash - paper could be Docrafts!?

Merry Christmas - Britannia Dies

Layers cut with Sue Wilson Noble dies from Creative Expression

Large Holly die - Sizzix thinlet
tag die - MFT
Small holly - cut from a memory box holly garland die

Holly berries, ribbon and lace and pearls are from my stash

So come on! - give yourself a helping hand and start on your Christmas cards! - one a week will be so pleased you did when December comes - perhaps you like a lace a lot better than I do - do me a favour and give me some inspiration in our challenge!!

There's a bears and mice thing going on over at Penny's Paper Challenge this week

Hi again

I'm playing a bit of post catch up this week after my busy weekend away and this is my DT card 

for Pennys Paper Crafty Challenge

our theme this week is

Bears and Mice

and the DT girls have had such fun with this cute theme

Here is my card using 

Henry Mushroom Bear - available here

(I see it's on sale just now - so go on and bag yourself a bargain!!)

Crafty sentiments is one of our fab sponsors this week and I have to confess a new one for me - I have never use their images before.  But I so enjoyed colouring this cute little bear scene - a really easy one to colour.  I also decided to have another try at colouring sky with copics and was quite pleased with how it turned out.  The card is just overall colourful but was quite easy to do.

We have 3 sponsors this week in total - so lots of lovely prizes up for grabs 

Crafty Sentiments
