The Sugar Bowl Challenge 38

This is the sketch for this fortnight's Challenge over at The Sugar Bowl

The option is "Scallops"Another sensational prize...

A purple Leanne Ellis Candy Box full of stamps, ribbons and other goodies and a 'Trinkets' bracelet!

Here is my interpretation of the Sketch.

I decided to turn the sketch on its side, and omit the scallop option.

I used one of the Gorgeous Girl Stamps from Funky Kits, not used this one for ages.

A luscious bow from Thick Ribbon - available from Stampin' Up

And some adhesive pearly gems. The Black and white spotty paper is from Magnolia, and the others are from Stampin' Up

Make sure you pop over to all the other Sweeties (See side bar)

Quick post today, life seems to be getting in he way of crafting at the moment.

Hopefully will be back tomorrow, when things have settled in and calmed down. For the next day or so I need to be Mum and New Teacher!!

Have a lovely day.

The Sugar Bowl Challenge 37

You know I love sketches, they make cardmaking and papercraft so much easier.

Today's Sketch by Marlene is no exception!

This is the sketch for the challenge over at the Sugar Bowl, with the theme

"Girlie or Feminine"

The prize is a fabulous one....a set of Nestabilities labels dies and a 6 stamp Suagr Nellie pick 'n' mix (winners choice)

Here is my interpretation:

Sorry can't spent much time sat at the computer as my back is a real problem at the moment. I'm on Diasepam, Codeine and Naprosyn - fab cocktail, when all taken together its a doosie!!!!!!
Tuesday I spent all day in bed - a cycle of crying in pain, sleeping and staring at the ceiling, 7 hours I was on my own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wednesday after the doctor prescribed Codeine, I was up and walking within an hour, still painful, but not crying painful!!!!!!

Back to work today!!!! Must be mad!!!!!

Anyway enough of my rambling.

Make sure you get yourselves over to rest of the sweeties blog and see their beautiful creations.

Take care

Roses Always

Meet Miss Rose, isn't she a sweetie.

She is available to buy from Funky Kits.

I my haste at being invited to join the Sugar Bowl, I dashed off, coloured this image and created this side step card. Image the horror at my stupidity when i realised I'd not taken any notice of the sketch. Ah well, It was a DT Card made.

I love the pink, black and white theme.
Papers: Night and Day from Stampin' Up
Cardstock: White hammered and Pink Pearlescent - both from my stash.
Sentiment: Stampin' Up
Embellishments: curled roses from pink pearlescent, ribbon - Stampin' Up

I added some little pearls to the centre of the flowers and some punched leaves.

I also created a little gift box to go with it.

Hope you like.

What a morning!!!!

I think we are going to end up having Flash Floods today, its not stopped raining,

AH well good excuse to get some more crafting done before heading back to work tomorrow.

Have a lovely day
