Valentine's Challenge

Marlou from Scrapping with Love is giving away some scrummy blog candy. The challenge is simply to make a Valentines Card and to include three things: (1) it must have a red or pink embellishment, (2) ribbon, (3) the word "love".

Well, I think I've managed to meet the requirements. I've used Doodlebug DP and Bazzill Bling embossed with Cuttlebug hearts on the actual card with a length of ribbon, from Ribbon Oasis. I've used Tilda blowing kisses and coloured her with Brushables with a little glamour dust on her petticoat and wings. She has then been mounted on Bazzill Bling c.s. and fixed to the card with foam pads. A sentiment from Pink Petticoat was attached to the back of the image. Finally a Doodlebug Jellishment and two copper brads were added as finishing touches.

Week 2 of Techniques

It’s the second week of Tando’s FB Live and the tutorial was by Jane Royston. This week the colours are more my style. I didn’t have the exact supplies so had to improvise a little. This was the end result... I love doing these tutorials. I put aside time for me on a Saturday morning and just get lost in the moment...all worries are forgotten for an hour or so. I would highly recommend it.

Happy Blogoversary To Me!!

Chocolate Somethings

Friday again and Half Term has started! The boys finished school yesterday so hopefully, we've got a fun day together! The challenge on Stamp Something this week is chocolate - everybody's favourite! and there's one stamp I turn to when that word is mentioned. I've followed the sketch on Mojo Monday for this card. The image is from Penny Black and has been coloured with Promarkers. Cardstock is Bazzill Bling and papers are Doodlebug. Matted the image onto some c.s. which has been run through the Cuttlebug and threaded some ribbon through using SU slot punch. Finally added a brad from my stash . A big thank you to Jose for helping me with my images......love the way some of you girls have been putting a sneak peek at the top of your posts and Jose was nice enough (and clever enough) to explain how to do it. Hope you all have a great weekend.
