Blue Christmas

Ooops I made this card last weekend for the CMLI challenge (theme- blue Christmas) but didn't post it on my blog. I will enter it into this weeks Pollycraft challenge (anything goes). The image is a Pollycraft one, from the Chester Christmas set.

1st Christmas

Wow I won last weeks Cute Card Thursday challenge- I was thrilled to bits. For this weeks challenge they have a sketch and I have made this card for my cousin's baby. It will be her first Christmas and so I thought it would be nice to give a special card to mark the occasion. I will also enter this card into this weeks Digi Doodle Shops Best challenge (anything goes).

V is for Vintage

This weeks ABC Christmas challenge is V is for vintage. I'm not too good at vintage cards and so I hope this one fits the bill. I have used some lovely papers which I have been saving up for ages- hard to cut into them. The stamp is an Elyzbells one that I have used a few times recently. I have been very good this year with the ABC Christmas challenges and haven't missed a challenge yet- I'm very impressed with myself since it is nearly Christmas and there aren't many more letters of the alphabet left to do!

I have followed the sketch from this weeks Sweet Sketch Wednesday challenge and will also enter the card into this weeks Passion for Promarkers (children) and Digidoodle Shops Best (anything goes) challenges.

Fun Halloween

For some reason I seem to have missed the last couple of Stampfairy challenges- they were on my 'to do' list but it never happened :-(. I have made up for it this week since I prioritised the challenge- which was to make a spooky or fun Halloween card. I have used my Tommy wizard image on this card.

I will also enter the card into this weeks Willow Sketchie (sketch), I love Promarkers (cute) and Passion for Promarkers(stars- on Tommy's hat) challenges.

Belated Birthday

I made this card today for a belated birthday- not that I actually have anyone to give it to that I have forgotten their birthday, but I thought it would be handy to have in the future in case I either forget a birthday or find out about after the day has passed. The image I have used is Sonny Party from Pollycraft.

I will enter the card into this weeks Pollycraft (girls, girls, girls), Sweet Sketch Wednesday (sketch), Passion for Promarkers (stars- on the backing paper), Cute Card Thursday (Sorry) and Digidoodle Shops Best (green and purple) challenges.

We Three (cute) Kings

I can hardly believe it, but this is my 400th blog post!!!! Again, following my pattern I have made sure that this post is for the I love Promarkers challenge (my 1st, 100th, 200th and 300th posts were for the same challenge!). This weeks challenge is 'ain't it cute' and I have used this Elyzbells stamps to make the card. I hope you agree that the three Kings look cute- it reminds me of Three Kings from a school nativity play.

Lavender and Lace

This weeks Digidoodle shops best challenge is the theme lavender and lace. I have also made this card for this weeks CMLI challenge, which was set by GDT Cherry. This week we had to take inspiration from a wonderful photo Cherry had taken of a butterfly. The image I have used here is a Pink Petticoat one.

'U is for Unused Stash'

This weeks ABC Christmas challenge is U is for unused stash. I'm sure we all have loads of that! I have made my card using this Digistamp Boutique image (this months freebie), which I have never used before. He is sooo cute and an absolutely amazing freebie! The sentiment digi is also a freebie from Netty's cards- pop along if you like it!

I will also enter this card into this months Digistamp Boutique competition and this weeks Sweet Sketch Wednesday (sketch) and Passion for Promarkers (Christmas critters) challenges.

Poorly Chester

I've fallen in love with the Chester set from Pollycraft and treated myself to them last week while Paula had a special 50% off all images. I hardly ever make 'get well soon' cards, but they are handy to have, especially as winter is on its way and no doubt people I know will get ill with coughs, colds and flu...

I will enter this card into this weeks Pollycraft (boys), I love Promarkers (autumn- I have used autumnal colours (oranges and browns)) and CES (autumn) challenges.
