High Hopes Halloween

Blogger isn't playing well at all just now. It's taken forever to get this picture on here. Anyway, the challenge over at High Hopes is to use Halloween colours. I've been into making tags just now, so thought I would make a Halloween tag to go on a bag of treats. I've got the bags, but not the treats, so we just look like a tag at the mo. I've got a few High Hopes Halloween stamps, but these are quite smallish for cards. The papers are from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Spooky Ooky by Fee Jardine. Not that I've used much paper (great for using scraps up). The Ticket is from Whimsy, a digital set. Added a bit of doodling, a bit of ribbon and 3 wee rhinestones and that's me.

The Sugar Bowl #92

My entry to The Sugar Bowl challenge this week. The image is an older Sugar Nellie and is a set. I just love this one. The optional extra is Turquoise/Brown. I can do that, so why did I have to have a nosy round Nitwits site and come up with some new papers. Yes these papers are a download from Nitwits - Winter Wishes. The sentiment is Craftwork cards and the snowflakes are a Hobbycraft punch. The swirly bits round the edge of the image are from a freebie stamp set from a magazine. I am also entering it into the Sugar Nellie Facebook Challenge which is 3 of something. There are new challenges over there on Sundays at 12pm.

Het Canary #1

Man that was hard work - Blogger wasn't wanting to play there. Finally got a picture to upload, not the one I wanted, but hey it's this card. So anyway, I have made this card for the Dutch Saturated Canary Challenge, using an image that was a freebie (I think it is in the Saturated Canary Shop now). The papers are Papermania - Portabello Road and the sentiment is Lili of the Valley. I have coloured her with Polychromos and blended with sansador and paper stumps.

The Sugar Bowl 90

My card for The Sugar Bowl Challenge this week. Although I have had it lying around for about a week. Well the optional extra this week is Love/Romance. I kinda cheated with this, since it's the image that I love - oh, and the papers too. Good job it's an optional extra eh. I mean who couldn't love Pippi Longsocks and her wee pal. The papers are again downloads from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Here without you by Krystal Hartley. The text is printed and added some pearls to finish. I have a tag to enter into the Official Sugar Nellie Facebook challenge, but Blogger doesn't seem to want me to add that one. But hopefully Facebook will be playing better.
