A freshly brewed sweet sketch

Here I am with my card for this fortnights challenge over at Sweet SketchWednesday 2 where we have yet another great sketch from Sally.



Why not play along with us this week.

We have a great sponsor this week in Fresh Brewed Designs and you could win some free digi images to play with.

Here is my card
I chose to use Daisy with flowers and really enjoyed cutting a few images out and layering them up, I even used a bit of artistic licence with more of the daisies in my flowerpot






Here is a side view as well

Getting around to it

I am almost ashamed to admit that I have stamps in my collection that were purchased during the last year and haven't yet seen any ink and although I am sure I am not alone it is time to start to remedy the situation.

So here is the first one which I have had since August


I liked this as soon as I saw it, I don't often do fairies but I loved that this one had wellies and a brolly.

Items used are
Image - Calender fairy - April from LOTV
Coloured with Copics and paper pieced
Papers - Sunny Side Up LOTV
Dies and Punches - Sweet Dixie, Memory Box, Go Kreate and Woodware.
Flowers, brads and ribbon - from the craft room shelves

Thank you as always for visiting

I am entering this card at Allsorts who have a wings themed challenge this week
 and at Craft Your Passion who have Anything Goes for their theme.

Sweet Sketch and Sami Stamps

I'm a bit late posting my DT card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this week as the laptop decided to go on a super go slow last night so I turned it off to give it a rest and here I am with my post.

This challenge we are sponsored by Sami stamps and Sally has given us another great sketch to play with.


It's a really clean sketch to play with and works great twisted too, well I would say that because I decided to twist it to suit my design.

So here is my card




Image - Cupbunny coloured with Promarkers
Papers - Craftwork Cards Pocketful of Papers USB 
Circle and decorative circle dies - Spellbinders
Rose made from an EK Success punch and the leaves are a Woodware punch
Base card - Craftwork Cards
Stickles glitter glue
Ribbon from the blue jar

I do hope that you can join in with our challenge this week

Hope you have a great week

Wednesday Doodles in the Pantry


Here we are into March and it's time for another sketch over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.

Here is Sallys Sketch which I really enjoyed playing with



This week we are sponsored by Doodle Pantry

I used Viola Ants which I had as a freebie before Brussels brought in the VAT rules for digital images. You got the papers and everything.
I really enjoyed playing with this set as it is so springlike and I think we are all ready for a bit of spring up here in the Northern Hemisphere.

Do head over to the blog where you can see how fabulous this looks twisted too.

I hope you can manage to play along with us, remember new for 2016 we get 2 weeks to play.

I am also entering my card in the Allsorts Challenge this week as the theme is Sentiment in Focus
and also in the Ants in my Pantry Challenge where the theme is Anything Goes
