This fortnights challenge was Cats & Dogs, with images from the sponsor

I used the Celebrating Kitty image, coloured with pro markers, I tried to colour him to resemble Monty my big ginger tom.

I mounted him on the brick wall stamped on kraft card , which is a Visible Image stamp

I then put a balloon on twine, cut using a spellbinder die in his hand and added the fish embellishment and I love cats.

The backing papers are printed using  Serif Craft Artist and different kits.

Its that time again  , its our 3rd Challenge at

Sincerely Yours Creations 

 and this time its Easter. I have used Dottie Bunny from Bugaboo which was printed then cut out using an oval spellbinder, I then coloured it with Pro-Markers. I used distressed ink to colour the oval in a chocolate brown, to make it look like a chocolate egg. I have used backing paper from a Crafters Companion DVD and backed it with Stampin Up Card.

The lace was cut out using a Stampin up Punch and finished off with egg shaped gems. I then made complimenting spiral flowers to complete the card.

Spring Blossom

The  Spring blossom is on the tree's on the Isle of Man, and I think this reminds of cherry blossom. I have used the large winter tree from Visible Image for my tree and embossed it with WOW embossing powder on to a large decorative spellbinder circle cut from midnight muse card.. I made a similar card in yellow and blue for my Sincerely Yours Creations design team card( don't for get to enter the theme is Mother's Day) scroll down through my cards to see it. That card is in England for my Mum and this is for my darling husband's Mum. I cut out mini flowers ,used a ball tool to shape them added with pva glue then added liquid pearls to them in baby blue. The back ground is using the tree branches and stamping with midnight muse and pretty in pink ink from Stampin Up . I then cut out circles in co-ordinating card , spiraled them and made the small flowers. I used a Spellbinder to cut out the banner and stamped with with Mother's day from the happy mothers day stamp from Visible Image and added a small happy.

Many thanks for calling by, please let me know you have visited, so I can pop over and say hi.

Mother's Day Wishes

Doesn't time fly !!! its got to that time again. its the second challenge from Sincerely Yours Creation.

This time it is Mother's Day our sponsors for the month are Dilly Beans  who do great digi images and 

Visible Image who make stunning clear stamps .

 I decided to use Visible image stamps for my Mother's Day Card , I used their large Winter tree, which I embossed with WOW silver embossing powder on to a large ornate circle by Spellbinders cut from Midnite Muse blue Stampin Up Card. I then punched out tiny flowers from Daffodil delight  yellow card and put a gem in each flower. I finished the tree off with a daffodil yellow bow, it was mounted on 3d foam. To make the backing paper I used the tree branches to stamp in both the yellow and blue ink and added a piece of the yellow ribbon and blue gems at the corners. The paper was then mounted on the  yellow card and finally mounted on a 8x8 square card.

The sentiment is from the More than words set 15 Mothers day stamp from Visible image. This was stamped in Midnight Muse on white card ,then mounted on blue and  then yellow card and mounted on 3d foam.

I am going to use the card for my Mum's mothers day card, I also did a similar card in blue and pink for my darling husbands mum.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you like my card please let me know hugs Tania xx

This is my first Design Team card, I hope you like it?

I coloured the image of Rosalee from Kenny downloads with promarkers,.

 I then used a spellbinder die-cut and cut out the centre so it looked like an ornate picture frame and  mounted on 3D foam on my card. 

The backing paper is from first editions Love Letters, all the backing card is from Stampin Up.

 I finished the card off with a Visible image sentiment and hearts and heart shaped gems.

Music to my ears

Hi folks , here is my Less is More card, to wish a friend a happy birthday.It is a one layer card and the image is stamped direct on to the card. I have used hero art stamps I think!!! for the image that will teach me not to keep the packaging(no its Woodware) and a Simon says sentiment. The Sax is coloured with Spectrum noir pens and a little free doodling to join the sentiment to the image. I really enjoy the idea of Less is More. I can't wait until Thursday, when I can share with you my first design team card for the new SINCERELY YOURS CREATION BLOG  it is a fortnightly challenge blog and starts on Thursday the 14th of February if you haven't got a blog and would like to enter there is even a Facebook page.
