Happy New Year

Hi there

It's a celebratons challenge over at Whoopsi Daisy this week so I thought I would base my DT inspiration on New Year. This uses a lovely paddington day out serif digikit for the background and the line drawing of london in the "polariod". The digistamp is from Whoopsi Daisy (sheet 414)



All the best for 2014!

Merry & Bright

Yay!! I am now part of the Crafting Cafe Design Team and am really looking forward to working with the other designers and sharing my ideas with you!

This is my DT project for the Crafting Cafe December Challenge using one of the challenge sketches. I generally design on 5 x 5 or 6 x 6 card so this was a nice change for me and I thought the image from Saturated Canary worked perfectly with it.


 
There’s still a few days left for you to join the challenge - we’d love to see your designs!

Untraditional

Hi there

I made this as a seasonal card for someone who has recently been through chemo. I love the image, a Little Darlings Rubber Stamp coloured using promarkers, and the sentiment which I put together using MS Word. The "ribbon" is my DIY embellishment made from a scrap of patterned paper.

Not even a mouse

Hi there

Its a traditional colours christmas challenge over at whoopsi daisy this week and this is my DT inspiration card.

The image is so cute, I added a little digi mouse to it and in keeping with the candle and traditional theme, decided to add the first verse of "twas the night before christmas" on distressed paper with a little ink well image to finish it
