Cupcake challenge - Thanks a bunch

Monday again, don't even know where the weekend has gone. Busy, busy! Managed to make my card for this weeks Cupcake Craft Challenges, I only have three weeks left on the DT, so I am making sure I am not missing out. This week the theme is "thanks a bunch", I have made my card using my "My Minds Eye" DP again, and had to use this cute Sugar Nellie image Annie by Leanne Ellis. I coloured her in with promarkers as usual. Ribbon is from Bo Bunny again, used it all now so have to hit the local craft shop to get some more, loooove the polkadot ribbons. The sentiment is from SU and the lettering for "Louise" i did using my Studio G alphabet cube (which I love, it's soo versatile). Stick on bling from Ebay (£1 for 200, bargain!!) Have a manic week ahead of me. Going to Sweden on friday for a week and have college and work all week and lots of tidying in the house, since mother in law is looking after my kiddies when I am away. Jikes! Better get on with some housework and washing so it doesn't pile up on me during the week. Thanks for coming by and have a great week.

Here is my DT card for this weeks Cupcake Craft Challenges. This week the theme is "cute as a bug" and is sponsored by Bee Crafty. We all got a digi stamp to use. I have used "whimsical girl".

The sentiment stamp is from SU and I also used a couple of SU punches for this card. I am away to college, have a great week.

Cupcake challenge - 58 - Distressing

Hope you all had a great weekend. I had no work all weekend so that was great just to catch up with the housework and a little bit of diy. This weeks over at Cupcake the theme is "distressing". I have made a card using My Minds Eye papers (again..) , love the green and brown autumn colours. For an image I used a cute Gorjuss girl from Sugar Nellie. I coloured her in with promarkers. The sentiment is from SU (also used the punches from SU for it). The ribbon is from Anitas, the charm and pins are from Papercrafts Boutique in Elgin. The stick on gems I got on Ebay. Really enjoyed this. Sanded all the papers and inked the base paper to make it distressed. I am away to go to college. Have a great week!

Happy monday everyone. And it's a sunny one too. Got some spare time today since only had college in the morning so I am turning the house upside down cleaning. Here is the card I made for this weeks Cupcake Craft Challenge. The theme is pearls and swirls. I have used a cute Anya image. I coloured her in with promarkers. The papers are from My Minds Eye. Really like the zingy colours and it was a real bargain aswell. The flowers are from prima, the pearls and jewels I got on Ebay. The charms I got in the local craftshop Papercrafts Boutique in Elgin. Used my Cricut machine to cut out the "16" and my little alphabet cube from Studio G for the rest of the lettering. This card is for a girl at my college, she has her 16th birthday on thursday so we have all signed it for her. Right I am away to sort this house out and enjoy some sun before it goes away. Have a great week!!
