My First Hanging

I made this hanging for Jo recently. Thank you

Jo for taking the pics :o)

I can't remember where I got the image

from so if anyone recognises it, please

let me know :o)

TMTA - Lovers

Over at Think Monday Think ATC the theme

this week is 'Lovers'.

I made this ATC using Inkadinkado and Anita's

stamps and coloured it using metallic rub on Creams.

Wednesday Stamper - Open Theme

Over at Wednesday Stamper the theme is an open

theme, so I thought I would enter this card I made

for my friend Anjie for her birthday.

I would also like to thank her for allowing me to use

the pic she took of it, she's a far better photographer

than me that's for sure lol

----------------------------------------------

Stamp is by Inkadinkado.

I really want to mention where I got the

image of the lady from but I can't remember!!

If anyone recognises it then can you please let

me know :o)

DCM - Little Extra...

Over at DCM

This week we have a numerical Little Extra

challenge for you: "We've Got Your Number"
Numbers and Fun? Those two words don't often

appear in the same sentence, do they? Well, we'd like

you to have some fun with numbers and put a numeral

on your card - it's as easy as that.

------------------------------------------------------

In answer to Clare, yes the swirls are embossed in gold.

The card is coloured using Metalic rub on creams and the

stamp is from Crafty Individuals.

TMTA - Holiday

Over at TMTA this week the theme is 'Holiday'

I decided to use a photograph of my brother when

he was about 5yrs old (now 30!) as it reminds me so

much of family holidays when we were kids :o)

DCM - Pockets

Over at DCM this week the theme is 'Pockets'

Apologies for the scan, the stamped image is

actually on really light vellum and melts into the

card irl but really stands out on this :o(

Stamp is by Hampton Art Stamps and the paper

is from Diane's Daughters.

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who takes

the time to comment on my blog, it's really appreciated

and inspires me to do more :o) xxxx

theme is 'Asia'. I've used images from the Joanna Sheen

Oriental Cd I have and used some glitter glue to enhance

some of the detail.

DCM - Haberdashery

Over at DCM the theme this week is 'Haberdashery' which

was a lot more difficult than I thought it would be!

Background is a SeeD's stamp and the image is a public domain

one which I found on Wikipedia.

The bit of Jute, pins, needle and thread are from my sewing box.

Citrus Colours Bookmark

Made this for a bookmark swap hosted by Angela

and the theme is 'Citrus Colours'. I used one of

my favourite stamps by Inkadinkado and coloured

it using Color Box chalk ink pads.

TMTA - Faces

This weeks theme over at

Think Monday Think ATC is

'Faces'. I decided to use a

photo of my late mum when

she was a teenager in the early

60's and manipulated it using

Paintshop Pro. Coloured with

Water colours and then stamped

the words ....you are my inspiration.

The pic on the left is the original I

used, wonder what she was thinking

at the time!! :o)

Wednesday Stamper - Buttons!

This week over at Wednesday Stamper the theme

is 'Buttons'.

I used the frame of an Inkadinkado stamp and a

Personal Impressions one for the centre, then added

a button to her scarf. All coloured with water colour

pencils in lilac although it looks pink in the pic :o)

DCM - Text

This week over at DCM the theme is 'Text'

No idea where the paper came from but the stamp

is by Personal Impressions and coloured using

water colour pencils.

Think Monday Think ATC - Children

Decided to have a go at a new challenge I was told about
