Happy Birthday...

Quick post today, need to get ready for work! My card today is one I made ages ago, but really like.

I have used one of my favourite Miss Anya Stamps and coloured with my promarkers. The Papers are from MME Stella Rose Pads, along with so Magnolia Papers and some Bazzil cardstock from my stash.

I think this is a CC Design Sentiment.......... Over stamped on the papers.

This sentiment was created using a Whimsy Stamp, which are very versatile.

Hope you like!

I'm off to have my crumpets!!

You Totally ROCK.....

Hello everyone, Sarah B here today with a card to share!!!!I have used Leslie from The Greeting Farm's Creepin' Creeper Crew Collection 1.

She is so sassy, I love her!! She is available with the rest of the crew and some great sentiments from Dies to Die for.

Here is the card I created, using some gorgeous papers from My Mind's Eye Stella & Rose 6 x 6 Pad called Mabel.

I love these pads as the papers are gorgeous, I haven't found one I don't like and they have only 2 of each which means you get very little bits left.

I have teamed it up with some Cherry Cobbler from Stampin' Up

And finally I created some of my favourite flowers and completed them with some pearly brads.

Take care

You're My Kind of COOL...

I really like this card (and I don't say that very often, but this one is defo going on my wall!!!!!)

I have used an image from the recently released set from The Greeting Farm - Creepin' Crew. He is called TYLER.

The sentiment also comes in the kit.

A few stars and buttons - using Stampin' Up Stash!!

I couldn't resist having a little play. I bought some Twine from the Ribbon Girl and wrapped it around the top of the image mat and the from little bits of scrap I used the Star Punch from Stampin' Up and made some bunting!!

Hope you like. If you want to have a go I have used this card as my card for Anyone For Anya's Challenge this week - TEEN / PUNK CARD. Pop over to the blog and have a look at the rest of the fab inspiration, and be in with a chance to win!!!!!

In Memory of.....

Good Morning!!!! Oh dear Blogging has gone well and truly up the spout this week!!!! It would be really nice to have a normal week at school, if anyone has ever had one let me know!!!!

It has been crazy!

Right I have a card to share.....

It was a commission which I always find very difficult. Last Year I was asked by the same lady to make a card and memory box for a little girl who had died suddenly.. Well its been a year and again I have been asked to create a Memory Card and here it is.....

Abigail would be able the same age as Cameron..... and I know only too well what its like to loose someone close, but a child must be the ultimate loss!

As she would be a year older I have tried to make the card a like older. I have used a Manga Image from Sugar Nellie, and gone very Pink and Green.

One of the requests was to have butterflies - so i used the simplest I have - the one from Stampin' Up.

And inside I used a gorgeous new die - Hearts-a-plenty from Sizzix - its gorgeous and a real WOW factor!

And more Butterflies..

Hope you like.

Take care and I'll be back tomorrow with another share.

Anyone for Anya.....

I am so late this week with my challenge card for Anyone for Anya, been having Keyboard problems and everything has taken so long!!!!

Anyway here it is.............

Its a colour challenge this week, and I really struggles with it!!! So in the end I just went with some pink, red and yellow, combined with other colours!!!!

I have used a Miss Anya image, from The Greeting Farm. She is so summery and lovely, not inked her up for a while!

The papers are from MME - Stella Rose (can't remember the book) There are so many to choose from they are gorgeous, and the new ones Lime Twist are stunning!!!!

The sentiment is from Lil of The Valley (gorgeous new stamps are out today and I just could resist.

Hope you like

Have a go! If I can do the colour challenge anyone can, remember you have to use an image from The Greeting Farm or form CC Designs!! Get yourself over to Anyone For Anya and have fun

I hope you like. Pop over to the Sugar Bowl Challenge Blog - see the side bar and have a go there is a fab prize up for grabs - A goodie bag containing stamps charms and embellishments.

Have fun and I look forward to seeing your rcreations.

A Special Easter Goodie......

Good Afternoon everyone. I hope you all had a lovely Sunday!!!!

Here is another Easter Pressie. I made this for My Gorgeous Little Girl - although she is twelve - GOSH where does the time go!!!!

She is growing up so quickly, so had to think of something quite sophisticated.

So I used Baja Breeze and Crumb Cake from Stampin' Up to create this Easter Calendar.

(Cameron had one as well, but I'll share that tomorrow).

I used the Top Note Die from Stampin' Up as the base, with two holes punched and eyeletted!!

I then used a sizzix XL Box die I have which creates a cute top opening box!

Each of these were decorated using Baja Breeze DSP, and then Ribbon wrapped around or flowers.

Each box then spelt out her name.

Each box then contained a little bit of chocolate - which they got to have each day over the Easter Weekend.

Here is the finished projects, Not the best of pictures but It turned out quite big.

Hope you like

Last day today!!!

Take care

Here is my card........

I have kept it very simple cos I just can't find my creativity anywhere!!!!! I used a sketch design by Rach Jakes, which I hoped would make it easier for me, but alas, Its not come back!!!

I have used a new image from CC Designs, SP Tulip Birgitta image . She is lovely. The Papers are MME - Stella Rose (sorry can't remember which book, but I need to get another one!)

The sentiment is from Stampin' Up, along with the Crumb Cake Cardstock, which is lush!! and the new seam binding ribbon, gorgeous.
