Pink Gem DT Card & Allsorts Challenge...


Hello! Just a quick one to share before bed. It's my entry for this weeks Allsorts Challenge. The theme is 'animals'. So I thought that this cute doggy stamp (Little Gem With Flowers) from Pink Gem designs would be perfect! You can find him here.

I have coloured him with Promarkers. I have also used Mega Nestabilities Curved Rectangles, Martha stewart Embossed Scallop punch, flowers, pearls etc. Ooh and those leaves and flower you see poking up behind the Craftwork Cards sentiment are actually fancy pins.


Well, thanks for looking. I'm off to bed soon. I think I might be coming down with something. I had a stonking headache yesterday. Felt ok today until about an hour ago when I started to get a sore throat. So I think I'll have a hot drink, then to bed.
Have a fun Bank Holiday xx

The Sugar Bowl Challenge 33 & Allsorts Challenge 47...

Hello!
Todays card is my entry for the latest challenge over at the Sugar Bowl.
This time it has to be based on a fab sketch by Gayle, and must include flowers.
I will also enter it into this weeks Allsorts challenge. The theme this week is 'petals and pearls'.
I have had this lovely 'Girl & Birdhouse' stamp available at Funky Kits for a while now but only just got around to using it. So many stamps, so little time...

When visiting Tesco this week, I was really pleased to find some Daler-Rowney watercolour pads reduced to clear at £1.50 each. I got 3, and was so pleased with them that I sent my husband to get me 3 more! I have stamped the image onto the watercolour paper with Versafine Onyx Black ink, and watercoloured with Distress Inks;

Skin - Tea Dye & Tattered Rose
Hair - Antique Linen & Walnut Stain
Clothes - Bundled Sage, Pine Needles & Broken China
Tree & Birdhouse - Walnut Stain & Aged Mahogany
Flowers - Worn Lipstick & Aged Mahogany
Background - Faded Jeans & Bundled Sage

I have used an 8x8 cream card blank (Craftwork cards).
The papers are K & Co. Craftwork Cards sentiment. Flowers from my stash blinged up with Stickles. The lovely emerald coloured pearls were from ebay. The raffia lace was from Quixotic Paperie. I have also used my new scallop punch by X Cut, which I must say are excellent value for money at just £3.60 from

Thanks for looking :-)
