High Hopes Furry Friends

The challenge over at High Hopes is Furry Friends. Well I just had to use this image which has been coloured for ages. I always wanted to make a wee album for our brief stay in Canada. And this image was always gonna be the front cover. Only I never got round to starting it. Well here is the front cover - finally made. And the rest of the album will probably take just as long - haha. The papers are from Nitwits - Canadiana Collection - I just had to have these. I decided I wanted to try an 8x8 album. I only ever do dinky albums when I eventually do make them. And here are two of my fave pictures which will make it in the album. We stayed at Jasper a couple of times and did the Tourist thing. We went to a Glacia and took the bus trip out onto it. I am going to have to check the name and spelling though.

I liked this next one, I think it is because of the flags flying, gave it a bit of colour.

New Baby

Well I decided to have a go at the sketch over at Friday Sketch Challenge. I even made two cards using the same image, but different colour way. I have had these coloured for quite a while, so thought I would use them both. Both have used papers downloaded from Pink Petticoat - white washed and gingham. The cute image is called Rocking Horse from Lili of the Valley. The sentiment is from a Personal Impressions clear stamp set.

I also want to enter them into the Papertake Weekly Challenge where the theme is it's new.

All Dressed Up Sugar

Got myself another wee entry into the Sugar Bowl Challenge. Another of the All Dressed Up images from Sugar Nellie. This one is a rubber stamp called Little Raindrops. I have used digi papers from Sweet Shoppe Designs - C'est La Vie by Zoe Pearn. I have added some ribbon, card candy and a few die cuts. Oh and a few rhinestones. Yep, I think I got a little carried away with them. I also added some Stickles glitter as a puddle at her feet. The die cuts are all MFT Blueprints 14. I also want to enter it into the Sketch Saturday Challenge as I followed their sketch. I am also going to enter her into the All Dressed Up Facebook Challenge where the theme is glitter and sparkle.

The Sugar Bowl 120

Had a wee play with my few days off. So I managed to make a wee card for the Challenge over at The Sugar Bowl where there is an anything goes theme. I used one of my new All Dressed Up Rubber stamps (shh - don't tell Hubby) - She is called Autumn Leaves and truly adorable. I have a bit of a thing with images with mushrooms for some reason. The mushroom dies are Cottage Cutz Mini Mushrooms. They were probably a bit smaller than expected, but are still cute. I had a wee accident with my white pen when giving it some white dots, so my mushroom is looking a bit rotten - haha. So a wee bird flew down to try and disguise it. The bird is a Memory Box die - Resting Birds. The papers are from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Dear Diary by Kristin Cronin-Barrow. The sentiment is a Kanban clear stamp.

Other Challenges I am entering:-
Cute Card Thursday #354 - Anything Goes
