AG for Creative Craft Cottage

Good Morning All

This will be my last challenge as a DT for  CCC.  I have been with them for 9 months and since taking over the running of MAWTT my time is getting more limited.

Creative Craft Cottage Challenge this time is Anything Goes.

I used this sweet image from one of the sponsors, Stitch Back in Time.

I cut it out with a S/B Fleur de Lis Squares die and used the smaller one for the stamped sentiment.

I added Creative Expressions Perfect Peonies die cut flowers in shades of blue.  All the rest is scraps from stash.

Anything Goes for Creative Craft Cottage

Good Morning All

Well it looks like our weather has finally changed. I believe we had a massive thunder storm in the early hours of Monday morning(I didn't hear it though).  Then last evening we had lots of rain.
*******

This time, at Creative Craft Cottage Challenge, the theme is Anything Goes, so it will be a busy one.

I used a template for this stepper card from the sponsor, The Cutting Cafe.

I used all bits from my stash, all the dies cuts, flowers sentiments and laser cuts have been in my stash for a long time.

I am on a mission to get my craft room tidy, so trying to use stuff as I uncover it !!!!!

Why not pop over to the challenge blog to see what all the other DT have been upto.

Fave Colour Combo for Creative Craft Cottage

Good Morning All

Creative Craft Cottage Challenge this time is to show your favourite colour combination.

Now this is quite hard as I have so many, pink and black, pink and lilac, brown and beige, brown and blue etc etc etc.

I coloured this sweet image from Lacy Sunshine, our sponsor, their digis are so cute.

I dont know why but I wanted to colour it in yellows and oranges, not usually my colours but heyho there we go.

I chose a card blank that I bought at the Ellesmere Port craft show when I visited with my sister last December.  I had to hand cut some matts for it.  Once again all bits from my stash, when I make flowers I tend to make quite afew of them and store them in mini drawers, so that is where the big flower came from.
Hop over to the challenge blog to see all the other wonderful DT creations.

Add A Bow

Good Morning All

Creative Cottage Crafts Challenge is Add A Bow so that's a nice easy for you.

I was given this image to play with but, because it is so soft (if you know what I mean), I really did not want to colour it, so all I did was colour the bow in her hair and I matched the rest of the card to that colour.

The corners are a Leane die No. 45-8558 cut from cerise card, a double bow using cerise satin ribbon and two bead pins (available to buy, HERE) and another bow in twine holding the sentiment tags.

The sponsor is Ppinky Dolls

All That Glitters

Good Morning All

Time for challenge 4 at Creative Cottage Crafts and the theme is All That Glitters.

Believe it or not but this card is actually green, it looks a murky grey doesn't it?

The image is from our sponsor  'All Dressed Up'

Quite cute isn't it?

coloured with Promarkers.

I added a big glittery dazzler to the bow.  The sentiment tags are held n with one of my bead pins, available HERE if you would like to buy some, or leave a comment for me with your email and I will get back to you.

I glittered the edges of the S/B Beaded Ovals and gems to the EK Success punched border.

Something Yummy to Eat or Drink

Good Morning All
Well I had the old top knot tidied up and coloured  yesterday and I,m very pleased with it.
 On countdown now for a week on Thursday, 30th, flying to UK to visit with Aurora and the rest of the family.  Cant wait.
*******

Time for the challenge over at Creative Cottage Crafts Blog.  This fortnight the theme is 'Something Yummy to Eat or Drink' and the sponsor is The Cutting Cafe, who provided us with a set of sweet or cookie jar images that you could make a shaped card with and images of sweets and cookies or jelly beans  to put inside the jar.

There are loads of things you could do with these sets, but I just cut the jar out and filled it with sweets and decorated the jar with gems and ribbon.
 I used the small piece of paper I had left with 'cupcakes' on.  The backing paper brings it all together as it is sparkly and has all different tones of gold, orange, pinks and greys, very unusual.

With all this in mind, ie, food, I am really trying to be good on my diet as the weight is slowly creeping back on.  I have got to get a grip.
