Cupcake Cutie

I really wanted to play along at In The Pink and As You Like It this week but had no cupcake related image :-( So I had a quick look on Pinterest and saw this little cutie from Sherri Baldy's Besties collection. I bought this digi and a couple of others - seriously how hard was it not to go mad and buy a whole bunch???
I've teamed her up with the 'Butterfly Kisses' collection from NitWit Collections. Just love this kit with all its beautiful extra embellies. The pink with that zingy green is just yum :-)
I really need to get back to working on my colouring and these images are just great for that :-)

Thank you for stopping by. Hugs, Jayne xx

Imagine

Today I have a card I made for the class I ran today at Samuel Taylors. It went really well and we all had a great day :-)

The balloons are from the Dreamer set of stamps from Bo Bunny. I teamed them up with Memory Box clouds and their Country Landscape die.


We used alcohol inks on acetate to colour the sky. Really chuffed with how this one turned out and so relieved the class went well.

Crafty Ribbons Weddings/Anniversary challenge

Morning! Gosh, it's been a bit scorchio this week hasn't it? Over at Crafty Ribbons this week our challenge is Weddings/Anniversarys.

I used this LOTV wedding stamp with papers from NitWit Collections (Cottage Garden).
I have used Congratulations ribbon in white and the beautiful Volcan Viscose lace also in white from the Crafty Ribbons shop.
I hope that you can join us this week. Hugs, Jayne x

Pretty Baby

I don't think this one ever made it to my blog! I used the Anna Marie Designs mdf Baby Gro as a template for the card blank and the Rosa collection of papers from Craftwork Cards.
I've battled the computer all day - I hope it isn't on its last legs!
Thank you for stopping by and leaving such lovely comments. Hugs, Jayne x

Around the World

Good morning! Today I have a card made using the 'Scenes' ribbon from the Travel Ribbons selection over at Crafty Ribbons which can be found here

.This was such a quick card to make and great for a 'man' card which I soooo struggle with.

I used the Essential Scripts stamp from Inkylicious with vintage sepia ink. I used my fab Presscut square dies for the apertures and a couple of the LOTV tag stamps to complete the card.

I love how it looks with the kraft card but may try it again on cream card.

I've posted this on the Crafty Ribbons Inspiration blog which is a great resource for quirky crafty ideas!

Thank you for stopping by and especially for leaving such lovely comments. Have a great weekend, Jayne xx

Wild Things over on Squirrel's blog

Have you entered Squirrel's Wild Things challenge yet? You can head on over to Squirrel's blog here.http://squirrel10.blogspot.co.uk/ To enter the challenge all you need to do is make a card featuring a 'wild thing' - an animal, bird, party people or flowers.

Here's my midway reminder:
This is the first time I've used this fabulous 'Lulu loves Poppies' stamp from Stampingbella. I love her soooo much :-)
Hope you're enjoying the weekend. I'm on day five of my diet and so far so good. However, if, when I weigh myself on Monday I haven't lost any weight I shall sob in a heap!

Thank you for coming by. Hugs, Jayne x

'Sports' over on the LOTV fb page!

This month's LOTV Facebook challenge is 'Sports'. Crikey!!! Generally if I can't stick flowers and fluff on a card then I don't want to know but I stuck flowers on this anyway!!!! My daughter asked why I'd put flowers on a swimming card and I told her without them it looked sad!! I'm turning into a crazy old lady already. Eeek.
So, if the mood grabs you and you fancy being in with a chance of winning a lush prize you can enter here: https://www.facebook.com/events/745663435576021/
This image reminds me of my daughter and makes me smile :-)

Thank you for dropping by. Big hugs , Jayne xx
