The Sugar Bowl #78

This fortnights Sugar Bowl entry. I decided to use this Gorgeous Girl image which had been coloured in ages ago ( although I did have to alter the colouring a wee bit). The optional extra is Kraft, so I manged that with the mats. The papers are a download from Nitwits - Tail wags. The sentiment is partly computer generated (Hugs) and Lili of the Valley (for you). Used a Cuttlebug folder - Swiss dots, for the circle, and added some twine and rhinestone gems. And I think that's about all.

The Sugar Bowl #77

This weeks Sugar Bowl entry. It's been sat around waiting to be stuck down for nearly a week. So my goal for today was to finish it off. I managed to stick it down and post it - wow I'm doing well today. Anyway - the papers are from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Vignette by Krystal Hartley. The sentiment is Lili of the valley and the tag a Magnolia Doohickey die. With a few Craftwork card candy.

The Sugar Bowl 76

My card for the challenge over at The Sugar Bowl. I stretched the sketch to fit a DL card. I thought I had better use this Homegrown cutie, her first outing onto a card. The optional extra is paper piecing. I pieced her top, trousers and front of shoes. The papers are from Sweet shoppe designs, can't remember who by, but have had an age. Punched a couple of Martha Stewart butterflies with gems trailing behind. Not sure whether to add a sentiment, so left it blank for now.

High Hopes

Well here I am with a card. I told myself that I would enter more challenges this year. I'm not doing so well with that so far, but hey ho. Anyway my card tonight is for the challenge over at High Hopes where they want to see pink - loads a pink. So I used this wee cutie and the pink papers are downloads from Pink Petticoat. The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley cut into a tag shape and the lace is from The Ribbon Girl. I have followed the sketch over at Papertake Weekly and think I will use it again. I'm trying to make A6 size cards at the mo, and always struggle with them. Since I have found the square card, I struggle with anything else.

Winter Wonderland

First up I have my entry into the challenge over Winter Wonderland where they want to see Birthdays. I don't normally associate snowflakes with Birthdays, but so wanted to use these papers. The papers are a download from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Forecast flurries by Eva Kipler. The image is from Sugar Nellie and I coloured in these colours for the Sugar Nellie Facebook challenge. Added a punched snowflake, a button and printed sentiment, and the diecut Daughter. I also want to enter it into Cupcake crafts challenge where the theme is winter Birthdays.

And my next card is another image from Sugar Nellie - Pippi Longsocks. I made this card for the last challenge over at The Sugar Bowl, but missed the challenge because the batteries were dead in the camera. So thought I would show it anyway.

The Sugar Bowl #72

My entry for The Sugar Bowl. This card has been finished for about a week now, but my Laptop has died on me - so a little trip to PC World is in order me thinks. But never fear - I have managed to pinch my Dad's for a while (Ssh don't tell him). Anyway I got a new download from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Forecast Flurries (I think) and now think this is my new fave papers (for now anyway). This wee sweetie is from Sugar Nellie and the sentiment is from Whimsy stamps.

The Sugar Bowl 70

This card has been made for about a week now. So thought I had better post it before the new challenge. This one is for the challenge over at The Sugar Bowl where I have flipped the sketch. The optional extra is clean and simple. Yes - while my cards are pretty simple usually, I do like to use more than one dp. The image is a new one from Sugar Nellie. The papers are First edition and the sentiment is Cats Life Press. Found a few flowers - think they are Prima, with a pearl brad and I think the swirl is a quickutz die.
