Cute Card Thursday 658 - Sparkles

 Another new challenge over at Cute Card Thursday. Thus week we have the theme of sparkles and we are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps.

I made another sticky note calendar. I used an oldie for this one. The image is Daisy an Elisabeth Bell image from Sugar Nellie. I haven't coloured her in ages. I coloured her with Polychromos Pencils blended with Sansador using paper stumps. The papers are digi from Sweet Shoppe Designs. The sticky note, calendar tabs and pencil are all from Amazon. I added some wink of stella to the flowers. It really does sparkle in real life. But it wouldn't show in any pictures. Typical eh.

Cute Card Thursday 657 - Stamping

 Running late again. But new challenge started over at Cute Card Thursday. The theme is Stamping and we are sponsored by My Creative Scoop. 

I went with a gift bag again. But Christmas this time. The Gnomes are a clear stamp set from Whimsy Stamps and you can get them here. The papers are from Papermania which I have had a good few years. The Holly is a die from Spellbinders. I have coloured them with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using Paper stumps.

Cute Card Thursday 656 - Halloween

 Oops running a bit late here. But anyway, a new challenge has started over at Cute Card Thursday. The theme this week is Halloween. I'm quite enjoying making Halloween bags this year. We are sponsored by Dis Digi Stamps.

I decided to make a wee something for the Granddaughters Cousins since there wont be any Guising this year. Well, what started off as a wee sweetie cone has turned into  a bag with a cone, juice and crisps. Think I got a bit carried away. Haha. But hey - I enjoyed making it. The image is a new Lili of the Valley one. The background is digi papers from Lili of the Valley too. I'm loving these with the images which come in different formats. I have used a PNG one here. The ghosts are a Memory Box die and the name is a Tim Holtz Bigz die. I have coloured him with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps.

Cute Card Thursday 655 - Dies and Punches

 New Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and the theme this week is Dies and Punches. We are sponsored by All Dressed Up.

I decided to make a wee bag for Big Sis for Halloween. I told her I was making up some bags for the Grandkids and I think she was feeling a bit left out. Haha. I decided to change my colour scheme for this one. Halloween is always orange, green or purple for me. The papers are digi from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Boo Crew by Digilicious Design. A Martha Stewart web border die. Memory Box Pumpkins. Marianne Designs Web doily thing. Whimsy corner web. Impressions Obsession Bat. The ticket is an old digi sentiment from Whimsy. The image is here from All Dressed Up.

Cute Card Thursday 654 - Anything Goes

 New Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and the theme this week is anything goes. We are sponsored by Whimsy Stamps.

I made a gift box this week. I have used a retired rubber stamp from Whimsy stamps.  Coloured using Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps (and I have just spotted I have missed a bit of hair - oops). The Poinsettia is a Marianne designs die. The shine bright is Lili of the valley and the papers are digi from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Christmas spirit - Silent night by Zoe Pearn.

Cute Card Thursday 653 - Folds

 The Theme this week over at Cute Card Thursday is folds. We are sponsored by Oddball Art this week.

I made a DL sized Z fold card. (I think that's what it's called). I don't make these shapes very often, but with slimline cards making a comeback - Who knows. I have used this cutie. The papers are digi from Polkadoodles. I put a wee pocket on the inner bit to add a bookmark. I ran out of time, so will add the bookmark later - haha.

Cute Card Thursday 652 - Autumn

 Another week, another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and this week we have the theme of Autumn. We are sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps.

I made a wee Popcorn box for some Halloween treats. They are quite dinky, but turn out cute. I got the die from Stampin Up, but it was a lot smaller than I thought. But that's OK, it's cute - haha. The papers are digi from Sweet Shoppe Designs. I used dies for the cobwebs from Whimsy Stamps. But it's an old one, so don't know if it's still available. The Penguin is a digi image from Whimsy Stamps from here or in rubber here. The Ghosts are dies from Memory Box, again rather old. And the chocolate is all eaten. Haha.

Cute Card Thursday 651 - No Patterned Paper

 New challenge has started over at Cute Card Thursday and we have the theme of No Patterned Paper. We are sponsored by All Dressed Up Stamps this week.

I got the new background die from Whimsy Stamps here, so went with that. I decided to use Magical Unicorn from All Dressed Up to go with the rainbow thing. I had the ribbon already sitting there. So it all came togeter nicely. I added the sequins because they were there too. Haha. I can make things without patterned papers, but I had to think about this one.

Cute Card Thursday 650 - Anything Goes

We have a new Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday with a very easy Anything Goes theme. We are sponsored by Whimsy Stamps this week.

For my card I have used Gnome Fishing. A super cute digital stamp. I have coloured him using Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using Paper stumps. The papers are from a very old 12x12 paper pad by My Minds Eye. I had a wee tidy up (only a wee tidy, I am easily distracted) and found a big pad hardly used. The grass is an old Quickutz die and the buttons are an MFT die.

Cute Card Thursday 649 - Inky

 This week over at Cute Card Thursday we have our new challenge starting with the theme Inky. We are sponsored by My Creative Scoop.

I have made a bottle tag with a pocket for a bar of chocolate. It is actually measured to take a bar of Lindt chocolate. But a smaller big bar of Cadbury's fits in too. The bees are from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps and can be found here. I used Distress Inks for the background and added a few sequins. The bees are coloured with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador with paper stumps.

Cute Card Thursday 648 - Embossing

 New challenge at Cute card Thursday and this week we have an Embossing theme. We are sponsored by Dis Digi Stamps. 

For my card, I went very simple with my embossing. I die cut the banners from an MFT die. I embossed the larger white one with a Crafters Companion embossing folder. The image is a pre coloured image from Dustin Pike and you can find it here. The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley and can be found here. I was planning on using a different sentiment, but my Big Shot die cutting machine died. So I went with what I had cut already. I'm looking at it now thinking I really want another sentiment on there though. I don't do cutting with scissors, so will have to wait. Although my Birthday is coming up, so plenty of hints to Hubby. Haha.

Cute Card Thursday 647 - Bright Colours

 A new challenge has started over at Cute Card Thursday and this week we have the theme of Bright Colours. We are sponsored by All Dressed Up Stamps.

I have used Bucket and Spade from All Dressed Up Stamps. I have coloured her with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using Paper Stumps.The papers are from Echo Park. I have realised I obviously don't do bright colours. I don't have many bright papers. I have followed the sketch over at Sketch Saturday although I have rotated it.

Cute Card Thursday 646 - Anything Goes

Wow another week gone by. So we have another challenge started over at Cute Card Thursday. We are sponsored by Whimsy Stamps and have a super easy Anything Goes Theme.

I have made another sticky note calendar. I'm getting a bit carried away making these. I have used a super cute gnome from this set by Dustin Pike. And the best part is - it's digital, so instant. Yay. I have coloured him with Polychromos pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps. The papers are digi too from Sweet Shoppe Designs. Adventure:Badger by Studio Flergs. I managed to get a wee black mark above the gnome. But saved the day with a wee wooden bee. The honey comb is a die from Whimsy too.

Cute Card Thursday 645 - Tags

On to another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and this week we have the theme of Tags. We are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps.

I decided to make a tag with a pocket. Not that you can see the pocket. I printed the image a bit too big. But I decided to use it anyway. But I made the pocket, then didn't know what to put in it. Luckily it was big enough to fit these wee Dairy Milk Little Bars. Takes 2 nicely. Like it ws made to measure. Haha. Anyway, the papers are from Sweet Shoppe Designs - All Hallows Eve by Kristen Cronin-Barow. The tag is an MFT die and the ghosts are Memory Box. The Boo is a digi from Whimsy Stamps, but don't know if they are still doing it. The image is of course from Bugaboo and you can get him here.

Cute Card Thursday 644 - Christmas in July

Onto another week, so another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday. We have the theme Christmas in July and are sponsored by Oddball Art.

I made a box/bag thingie for this one. It fits a mini bottle of wine in. I found the wee chocolate Santa, he must have avoided being eaten. So I used him as a prop then ate him - haha. I used Dear Santa from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. I have coloured him using Polychromos Pencils and blended using Sansador with paper stumps.

Cute Card Thursday 643 - Stitching

Another week gone by and another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and this week we have the theme of stitching. We are sponsored by Dis Digi Stamps.

I don't actually do stitching on my cards. So with the help of dies and a bit of doodling I went with faux stitching. I didn't really know where I was going with this one. So I went with the Christmas theme from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps Facebook which is pink and green. The image is Gingerbread Kisses from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. I followed the sketch from Sketch Saturday.

I then decided to add it onto a bag instead of leaving it as a card. We all need some gift bags - right. The papers are digi from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Happy Holidays by Zoe Pearn.

Cute Card Thursday - Not square

Another challenge has started over at Cute Card Thursday and this week we have the theme of Not Square. We are sponsored by All Dressed Up Stamps.

I decided to make a shaped card. I used a Dutchdubadoo stencil for the bottle. Cut out using scissors. That's the part I don't like. I don't think I am very neat at that. But I'm kinda happy with it. A wee bit of Gingham paper. The image is a simply print from Lili of the Valley.

Cute Card Thursday 641 - Anything Goes

Another week gone and another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday. This week we are sponsored by Whimsy Stamps. And we have a super easy theme of Anything Goes.

I have used a retired rubber stamp for my card this week from Whimsy stamps. You can find some of the collection here in the UK. The dies are a mix. I was going to colour them in but sat them on top to see how they fit. Thought they looked OK white, so stuck them down before I changed my mind.

Cute Card Thursday 640 - Flowers

Onto another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday, and this week we have a theme of flowers. We are sponsored by My Creative Scoop.

For my make this week I have gone with a sticky note calendar. I quite like making these. I have used Happy Hummingbirds from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. The papers are pretty ancient, which I found while having a wee tidy up. I've decided that I really must use blues more often. Coloured with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps.
I am going to enter this into the Kraftin Kimmie Skrappy Challenge where they want to see anything but a card.

Cute Card Thursday 639 - Summer

Another challenge has started over at Cute Card Thursday and we have a Summer theme on the go. We are sponsored by Dis Digi Stamps.

I have used the super cute Toucan Surf from Whimsy Stamps. The papers are a very old pad I found, don't know who by. The sentiment came with the image.
I followed the sketch from Sketch Saturday, so am entering it over there.
