Stamp Something ,,,,,, Flowers, Buttons and Sparkle :-)

Happy Easter !! I hope you are all enjoying the long weekend and looking forward to all the choccy we get to eat on Sunday. My fave is Cadbury’s Whole Nut so I am hoping the Easter Bunny will bring me a HUGE bar of that rather than an egg !! :-)

Anyways ,,, time for a new theme over on the Stamp Something Challenge :-

FLOWERS, BUTTONS AND SPARKLE ,,, nice eh !! :-)

We are sponsored this week by Funky Kits so a lovely Sugar Nellie on offer for one lucky entrant :-)




For my card I used this very cute Upside Down image by Diane Duda ,, I love her designs !!:-) I coloured her with Copics and inked around the edges with Stormy Sky Distress ink. The papers are my current faves ,, Neighbourhood collection from Crate Paper ,,, gorgeous I think, this was a gift from Joey and Scoopy from Crafty Emma’s Store , the flowers have little button centers too ,, perfect for this challenge !! I used some green SU ribbon and matching card for layering. The flower is a Fabric Bloomer from Prima, it comes complete with the button and I used a Martha Stewart butterfly and a leaf frond punch. I added Star Dust Stickles and Robins Nest dew Drops for the sparkle Smile

WEDDINGS !!

With Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding only a few days away its just PERFECT ! :-) What will you be doing next Friday ,,, watching it on the telly or will you be outside Westminster Cathedral flag waving ?? I will be glued to my telly with a freshly baked Victoria sponge, a plate of coconut macaroons and a pot of tea !!! :-)

We are sponsored this week by Whimsy Stamps and one lucky entrant will have a choice of 5 digi images from her store !! :-) Thanks Denise xx



For my card I used a fab new Lawn Fawn stamp set called Bake Me a Cake ,,, I LOVE this set,,, so much fun !! There are loads of different elements to use to create a different cake every time !! I was asked by a friend to make a Wedding card for her to give to her nephew and she wanted pink and roses so I hope this will be OK !

I didn’t have any pink card ,,, shame on me !! ,, so all the pink is coloured with a RV32 Copic pen, I coloured the image with a couple of Copics ,,, C and RV shades and inked the edges with a cream chalk ink pad then smothered with loads of Star Dust stickles. I used some hammered white card and embossed a panel with a flowery folder. I used a Martha Stewart Heart Border punch and the flowers and ribbon are from WOC and the sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp Exclusives set.
