Hi all. Quick posting today. I had time to make a card, but not enough time to chat to all my stamping friends!!! How bad is that? Hope your all crafting and creating. See you all soon.

Challenge #7 - Recipe

 

Hiya ladies. Well I've just learnt how to do this from my iPhone so this will be a short post as I'm just practicing. Desperate measures because I'm still waiting for my laptop to come back. So, how exciting is this. Anya Ink are now opening the Challenges to use  any image. So as well as CC Designs and The Greeting Farm, you can now use Magnolia, Kraftin Kimmie, Inky Impressions.....  absolutely any image you like. Woo Hoo. I love it. I can now put to use all my other stamps. Onto this Challenge. I made this for the new challenge  which was a recipe challenge - 3 flowers, 2 buttons and 1 bow. We are being sponsored by the fabulous Tickled Pink Stamps. If you havnt been to her site, you gotta go.  See you all next time. Hugs. Lorraine xxx

Inspiration week - Black, White and one other colour

I'm working off a really old computer at the moment so If you see loads of mistakes, please forgive!!! This card is for Inspiration Week over at Anya Ink. I havnt yet seen what the other DT members have done but I just KNOW they will be awesome. I made an Easel card as I have only done 1 before and wanted to give it another go. They are surprisingly really easy. Love them. I didnt exactly get my punching correct, though, so please dont look too closely.  I used a Martha stewart corner punch and punched around a whole circle instead of the edge. I think next time I will get better. If you are patient and line it up correctly you can get it spot on, but I obviously havnt got much patience ( I will NEVER admit to that!!!). Hope you all have a great weekend.

See you all next week, if not before.

Black, White and one other Colour challenge

Hi to everyone. I'm a bit late posting this as I have been having BIG computer problems (for the next 3 weeks until my laptop comes back from the repair shop). Ouch, it really hurts, ha ha! Just a quick post, because the computer I'm on has a terrible keyboard and I have to type one fingered. The keys are sticky. Anyway, less of my problems and more about my card which was to use Black, White and one other colour of your choice. I actually really enjoyed it. I though it would be a real challenge for me, but once I started, it was great fun. Nip on over and check the Dt's fabulous cards.  Our sponsor this week was the FAB Bizzy Becs. Thanks, Bec, we really appreciate it. See you all next time.

Hugs and have a great weekend.

CHRISTMAS IN JULY

Hi Everyone. Just a quick post today as I've got loads to do. I decided to make a Snow Globe card for the Christmas in July challenge over at Anya Ink. I used my copics to colour in Santa Anya and used lots of glitter on this one.  The challenge was sponsored by the fabulous Bizzy Becs. If you havnt been to her store yet, ya gotta go. She has everything our little hearts desire.

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend, ladies.

Hugs. Lorraine xxxx

New Challenge - Challenge #5 Christmas in July

Hi Everyone. Hope your having a great week so far. Here comes the weekend. Yippee....

I made this card for a Christmas in July Challenge 

This week the challenge is being sponsored again, by Bizzy Becs. She's made up a gorgeous pack for the winner this week. If you havnt been before, go and take a look at her site. You will not be disappointed. She has the best goodies in there. Here is the prize pack for this weeks winner (yes, thats a brand new Sweet November mermaid stamp):

  Well, I really enjoyed this challenge, seeing as its been more than half a year since I made anything to do with Christmas. Who loves Christmas? Oh my goodness, I LOVE CHRISTMAS, so this was a perfect challenge for me. You probably cant see, but the little village I stamped at the back is all glittered. We HAVE to have glitter at Christmas, dont we!!!  I coloured everything, including the flowers and corners, with Copic Markers.

 Thanks for visiting and dont forget to take a look at all the Christmas Inspiration at AnyaInk. Bye for now.

See you soon.

#3 Challenge

Hi everyone. How was your week? Mine was 'eventful'!!! I'm hoping this week is a LOT more relaxed. Ok, I made this card for the 3rd Anya Ink Challenge which was Bling. I used the Spring Couple from CC Designs, coloured with Copic Markers and the papers I used was actually in my "throw pile". I went through some of my papers and was throwing away a heap that came free with magazines over the years!!! Then I started flipping through and just 'trying' this and that. Needless to say, the bin hasnt seen that pile of papers, they are now sat on my desk!!! The shame of it...... I'm such a HOARDER.... ha ha.  Bec from Bizzy Becs has very kindly sponsored us for this challenge and she's giving away a fabulous prize so I hope you can all join in the fun. THANKS BEC, your a real star. Ok, guys, hope you all have a great fortnight. Thanks for stopping by. Hugs to you all and a bigger hug for anyone that needs it. Lorraine xxxx

Challenge # 2 - Buttons and Bows

Hi guys. I made this card for the Anya Ink Challenge, Buttons and Bows. I had so much fun with this. I even used my copic blender pen to make the little circles on Trevors tie. I'm well proud of myself (sorry, a bit of English slang there!!!). If you could hear me, I talk just the same way!!! Anyway, I think the rest speaks for itself. Hope to see you in this next Challenge, girls. Thanks for stopping by. Lorraine
