Funky Fairy's, Charisma and Friday Sketch Challenges




I know I've already entered the Funky Fairy's challenge with my last card upload but when I saw the Charisma challenge which is to use black/white and one other colour I just had to use this free download paper and text from Funky Fairy This stamp was just 'made' for this :-)
I used the Friday Sketch, which is a fab sketch by Carole, again, this sketch was made to go with this stamp, can ya tell I love this stamp :-)
The ribbon is from Meiflower,isn't it gorgeous :-)

Cute Card Thursday Funky Fairy's and Sketch Saturday Challenge's



I know its quite late for the saturday sketch but I really liked this sketch and wanted to use it :-) I am also entering this for the CCT challenge which is Valentine. I forgot to take a photo of the inside but I have decorated it with hearts and a valentine message , might upload it later ,,,,
The image is PB squeeze till I squeak, what a fab name for it ha ha :-) As you can see I used my scallop nestie for the image. The words down the side is made using the PB love love love stamp, pink brilliance on vellum. The hearts are cut out on my cricut and embossed with a cuttlebug swiss dots folder, which I then chalked with pearlescent pink, this doesn't show up very much on the photo but is nice n shimmerry in real life ;-0. The dotty ribbon is by papermania.
The pink distressed paper is a download from Funky Fairy's so it also qualifies for that challenge which is Valentine's too :-)The text is from a santa rosa stamp which also has an envelope with hearts coming out of it so I had to cut around it !
Thanks for looking, I appreciate all your comments so please leave me one before you hop somewhere else :-)

Tilda and Friends ATC Challenge


I made this ATC for the Tilda and Friends ATC challenge which is not to use any designer paper. I decided to make is a Valentine theme, well it is that time of year ,,,The Tilda has a cross pendant usually but I made her a heart shaped one using a punch and shrink plastic and coloured it with artquest interference paint before shrinking. Her handbag is a new papermania duo clear stamp made using shrink plastic too. the background paper was made using pink chalk and a hero arts heart stamp and pink brilliance ink. Oh and I almost forgot, i tied a little pink ribbon in her hair, then layered it all onto blue card. :-)
Thanks for looking, your comments are very much appreciated :-)
If anyone would like to swap just let me know :-)
