Creative Craft World 'Button It'

Today's challenge at Creative Craft World sees the start of another fantastic fun challenge.
We would like you all to 'Button It' now we don't mean that in a rude way either ;0)

The challenge is sponsored by the brilliant Robyns Fettish who are offering one lucky winner some digi images.

Heres my DT card
(I have been rescued by big boss lady Lou)  Thanks Lou xx

My card was created all around me wanting to use the hessian on my card.. Oh and my much loved raffia lace, although i actually left it as it was and didnt colour it with my promarkers. I used a mixture of cream and darker brown papers to build my card up. The flowers were punched using my Marianne Designs punches and my MS frond punch as the leaves. I coloured the image using my Promarkers and of course every angel needs Stickles on her wings ;O) Oh and angels need a few gems here and there also :O)

Thanks for visiting me today and thanks to Lou for saving me

When i saw this fantastic image i knew this card would be perfect for lots of grannys'. Its adorable.. I printed out the background using a free bingo card maker. Then used my MS punch to place the dabber marker mark. The image was coloured with Promarkers.

My second card is from my boys to their Grandma and Grandad. Just because their granny and grandad are 'out of this world' !! I loved this image and my son Ben cant wait to share the card with Grandad. I made the card on an 8x8 card blank. Using my Big Shot to emboss the start background..

Creative Craft World... ' For a child'

At Creative Craft World we are challenging you to make a card 'For a child'. Another nice and easy one.. This could be any card or creation so long as its for a child.. You have until 25th August at 10 pm to get your entry in ;O)

We are Sponsored by Stitchy Bear Stamps for this challenge so 1 lucky winner will receive a selection of digi images of their choice.

I was super lucky in this challenge and got to work with 2 creators. Stitchy herself and Teri from Delicious Doodles. Here is the cards i made.

Using Stitchys' 'Sweet Pea' image.

I coloured the image using my Promarkers, then added glossy accents to the flowers and stickles around the inside of the pea pod.. Well babies are magic .... right ?  I found the perfect pea DP which was sent to me in a stash swap so i am not sure what its called, sorry..The image was backed with a dark green bazzil basics card and then onto the pea DP. The stamp was from LOTV. This super image is great for boy or girl cards.

Using Delicious Doodles, ' Strawberry Cupcake' image

The image was again coloured with my Promarkers and stickles added to the icing for abit of yummy magic. I passed my card through my Big Shot using my swirls folder to match the swirly shiny cream ontop :O)  I added a few strawberry sparkle gems to my card to give it abit more glitz. I also added a piece of checked DP that matched the 'cake' colour... Since making this cupcake card i have made a few more and they all look good enough to eat ;O)

Thats it for my Creative Craft World Creations this time... I am looking forward to visiting all of your blogs to see your fantastic creations.

We are sponsored by the fantabulous ' The Crafty Pad ' Please pop over to the challenge blog and see the girls beautiful cards.. We hope they provide lots of inspiration to you ..

Theres so many fantastic images here, ( They have some gorgeous elves that i know will be on my Christmas card list ;O)  )

I made my card this time using Bradley and Dilbert the Dragon with gifts.. Its sooo cute and ideal for boys birthdays i thought.

Ive added Stickles to his wings and glossy accents to the gift.. Its coloured with my Promarkers and i used ribbon as my sentiment.

Ive made a few of these cards using different coloured Dilberts' and they are all sooo cute !!  So yes this image is a definate keeper. I love it !! I find boys cards are still such a challenge, afterall not alot of boys like fluff,sparkle and shine do they ? and if you added a flower Oh My !! lol

Choccy xxx

I would like to add my card into the following challenges:

Craft Your Days Away -  Birthdays

Inky Impressions - Birthdays

Just Tracys Crafts - Birthdays

Creative Craft World 'Anything BUT Birthdays'

At Creative Craft World we are challenging you to make 'Anything BUT Birthday cards' for this challenge. The challenge runs until 10pm on 5th August. So you have a few days to make any card that you like, as long as its not a Birthday card ;O) .

The sponsor is Robyns' Fettish, who are giving 1 lucky winner a choice of digi images.

Can i now appologise for my photographs of my card.  I have had to get a new camera after the battery door broke on mine :O(    Well i am still trying to learn the settings lol... Some were too dark

and some were too light

The light one isnt too bad i suppose ? But it shows where i covered the window in glossy accents to be sooo wrinkly lol.. It really doesnt look that bad in 'real' life.. Guess thats what happens when i get a bright idea to make the glass window look like glass lol.

I cut out a shape on the front of the card using my nesties. So the actual image is on the inside of the card.. I chose the DP to give the effect of wallpaper as if i was sitting inside one window. Watching the girl sitting watching the rain whilst thinking.... Not sure if that actually comes across in my card/ picture.. But that was the feel i wanted to achieve..

I hope that you stop by the Creative Craft World challenge blog and join in with this fun challenge. Dont forget to join in with the 'Anything but Birthdays' challenge

Sending you hugs

Oooh i am late with my posts this morning :O( ... So firstly an appology !!
Its been 'one of those days..

On to the fun....
Happy Christmas !!! ( in June ) Thats the new challenge over at Creative Craft World.. I remember thinking last year that a month was plenty to make all my cards. But then i had forgotten to add into that all the school events for the boys, extra time it takes to do the shopping ... Well i bet you have all been there ? right ?  So i vowed that this year i would try to make a few cards each month... Well that hasnt happened as other things get in the way and you think 'oh well its a year away'.... Well heres a shock ! We are already half way there and if you are like me... You havent really started your cards !!!
So thats abit about where this challenge actually came from. I do know its' not really Christmas ;O)

This challenge is sponsored by Robyns Fettish. The prize is a choice of digi images

Heres my card for this challenge. Its using the image called ,'In from the cold'

Its a beautiful image. That was so much fun to colour..

Now for a change i decided to decorate the inside a little bit too

Well thats it from me .... Apart from saying, 'Happy Christmas', in june of course :O)

CCW ..... 3 or more brads

Wow those 2 weeks flew by !! Its time for another Card Crazy challenge at Creative Craft World. It has been one of 'those' weeks here. Ive been sick and my eldest baby has moved out of the family home to begin his new life with his girlfriend and in (4weeks and 3 days) their new baby... Such a mixture of emotions are flying round and i am sure that over the next few weeks it will be the same..Lets hope that my mojo survives all this excitement ;O)

This week the challenge is sponsored by Lou , Head gal of Creative Craft World. She has a set of 5 Promarkers for 1 lucky winner.. You can never have too many Promarkers, right ? So a great prize
                                                    

The challenge this fortnight is to use 3 or more brads, So a nice easy challenge again ;O)

For my DT card this week I used a digi image that i have had for a while and found again the other day. I just had to use it for my card. Its Summer Baby by Mo Manning. Its a GORGEOUS digi and has bits included that you can, if you wish add to it.
My backing paper is a beautiful sunflower yellow paper that was designed by Angela of Toucan Scraps its available as part of a pack here.

Heres a close up of the fun image. 

I coloured the image using my Promarkers and then i added glossy accents to the water to give a water effect. I used a few gems around the sentiment and then used 6x mini brads. The swim bands were raised off the card using foam squares. I thought it added abit more of a 3D effect to the arm bands.
I really do adore the gorgeous backing paper it will be used again and again for warm, sunny and happy cards.

Thats it from me for now... I cant wait to stop by your blog and see all of your gorgeous creations.
