Sweet Sketch, in the Potting Shed with Sami Stamps


Sally has done it again this week and given us yet another fabulous sketch to play with over at 
Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2



This week we are sponsored by Sami Stamps and I chose to use the image Feather Umbrella and teamed it with the new Potting shed 2 collection from Craftwork Cards.
I just need to find myself a brolly like that now.

I do hope that you can find the time to play along with us this week.

Thank you so much for visiting me

A sweet sketch with a DigiStamp thrown in

It's the middle of the work week already so lets get over hump day with a fabulous sketch from Sally Dube over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.


and to go with this great sketch this week we have a Great British sponsor in 
Digi Stamp Boutique.

So I put them together along with some bargain paper from Tk Maxx and a couple of buttons and this is what I came up with




I think all the red may have been influenced by a little visit to The Wave of Poppies at The Yorkshire Sculpture Park on Saturday



It was a bit wet but well worth it and as they are there until January I am sure we will be able to find a nice clear crisp day to visit on.

I am entering my card in the Allsorts Challenge this week as they have a theme of Buttons

Thank you for taking the time to visit me this week

A little bit Disney

When I saw the Bohemia kit from Craftwork Cards I just knew that I wanted to use the clock card with some Minnie Mouse papers and decoupage which I bought earlier in the year so here is the result


I have coloured the card with Distress Ink and everything else is from the kit.

Hope you like ( I think my Croatian sheep does) and thank you for visiting.

I am entering this at Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge where the theme this week is Anything Goes 

and also at Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog who also have an Anything Goes theme

Into Autumn with Patties Creations



Well there has definitely been a nip in the air this week on the walk to work, the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness is almost upon us so it's quite appropriate that I should get this pumpkin jug to play with from our sponsor Patties Creations over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this week.


Pattie has some lovely images to choose from and I really enjoyed playing with this one, so easy to colour.

Sallys sketch this week is another great one to play with too whichever way you twist it as I did.



I've used copics to colour my imge and then added flower soft for the centres and the ground.
Papers are from the scrap box.

Thank you so much for taking time to visit me

Snow joke ......

....... I really do need to get cracking with the Christmas cards.


So here for starters is my DT card for this week sketch at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.

Sally has designed this fabulous sketch for us to play with


and I had great fun with this wonderful snowman image from our sponsor this week Bugaboo stamps, I love their images, such a huge variety to choose from and the design team have created some brilliant cards with them this week to inspire you.


I did struggle to get a decent photo this week, I 've used quite a bit of glossy accents as highlights but I don't think it shows too well.
Papers are from Lili of the Valley Festive Trimmings pad, Holly die from Memory box some stickles glitter glue and sequin ribbon from the silver jar.

Thank you for visiting me today, happy crafting!
