Stamptacular Sunday Challenge 18

This weeks theme is childs-play!
Each week the theme remind me of some object/stash that I have bought thinking "that'll come in useful for such and such" - you know the kinda thing!
Anyhow, I have remembered some jigsaw blanks I bought at Clarity stamps in June , the idea being to make a friends daughter one for her on her birthday - well lets do it now!
She is such a girlie girl and very pink - so here you are Sarah, just for you!
Of course I am still in love with my cupcake stamps and have had a wonderfully messy day colouring in, and spraying glimmer mists - def. got pinky fingers now!
Papers used - DCWV, Stamps used are U-Mount, Cupcake, coloured with a mix of cosmic shimmer paints, glimmer mists and Marvy pens! I then sprayed it all over with a thin layer of varnish to seal it!
Yum Yum Yum
Of to make cake!

Cheerio for now

Penny Black Saturday Challenge 60

Today's challenge is

SUMMER

Just as well because that's not what it is out of this window - rain, rain, rain = cold,cold,cold - must be very cold as cats all want cuddles and at this moment are all cuddled together in one big furry heap!
I decorated the inside too - cant leave that plain and boring now!


Stamps used are Fresh New Day and the papers are from K & Co

I have to show off this stamp - although not the best surface to stamp it onto - but i love it and its going on all my cards from now on!

Get them - and many other designs too from Bunny Zoes Crafts!

Until tomorrow - lets hope the weather brightens up - I've a ton of washing to do!

With love SuzyX

Sketch Saturday Challenge 62

The weekend is back!
Got loads to do but that can wait - I wanna play!
This is my entry for this weeks Sketch Saturday, a colleague at work is getting married in 2 weeks and her colour theme is cream and brown so this card is for her and her new husband - I am trying to decorate the inside, it does seem to finish the card and I want this to be special for her.
The sketch:- ......is brill Sandra, just what I needed for this card - thank you.

Papers used are all K & Co, and stamps used are Scrapmagasinet from Bunny Zoes Shop - she has some great stuff there.
The flowers are from Bunny Zoes and Wild Orchid Crafts - I do have a bit of a flower fetish at the moment, they are lovely, especially sprayed with a bit of glitter!

Until later, SuzyX

Stamptacular Sunday Challenge 17

This weeks challenge is "Inside - Out".

I suddenly thought of a blank paper mache book that I have sat on the shelf in my little hide away, just the thing for this challenge!
It has taken me all day, I might add, the family have not really seen me except to wash the mess off my hands, brushes, mats, sponges and anything else that got in the way!
Its quite an Autumnal look - sub-consciously I think the bad weather has affected my choice of paint and paper!
I used Anita's Antique white acrylic paint to cover the whole thing and then distressed the box with inks and metallic wax.
The papers used are from K & Co and the flowers and leaves are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
The stamps are from Graphicus and are Elusive Images, Tall Trees stamp plate and the butterflies are from Clarity Stamps.
My little butterfly chipboard is ScarpFX - beautiful chipboard products - Graphicus sell them too!

Well, thats the weekend over, the "W" thing tomorrow - keeps me out of the shops though!
although not quite true - the internet is open anytime!!!



TTFN - everyone have a good week.

Cupcake - heaven or hell!

After seeing these gorgeous cupcakes in and around blogland I just had to get the HOTP template to make them myself!
Well............I am soo female - the spatial logic of putting them together threw me - it took me the best part of the morning to work it out, even with the aid of the online video for HOTP!!!!!
Anyhow here it is and now that I have the knack guess what people are getting for pressies!!!!!
I do so love cupcakes - yummy!
