Susieb over at http://whiteribboncards.blogspot.com/ has some Blog Candy up for grabs, so head on over there, and take a look for yourselves :)

CB Dance Challenge

Pink Puppy is hosting a Dance Challenge in C.B Forum, I saw this card in my new Craft Magazine and thought it would be ideal, I copied out the template from the magazine and added my own beads and pearls to finish it off, I used a smaller greeting as the one they used was too big for my card.. This is the First card I've made from a magazine and template so I hope I've made it OK :)

At the end of the post the player then tags 5-6 people and post their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answers.

Rak from Sequin

The Postman bought me a Gas Bill today and this absolutely Stunning stunning ATC it's beautiful, and a Gorgeous Rak from the lovely Sequin, from CB Forum, thank you so much hun, the papers are stunning your a wee treasure ;) Thank you again..

Today's Make

This was a quick make, I used up the paper I punched out yesterday on this card, used some metallic rub where the punch out are and covered with iridescent Glitter glue, finished off with some ribbon and some Flower Buttons and greeting.. Simple but quite effective.

Sassy Craft's Dovecraft Challenge

I made this using Dovecraft Amethyst 8x8 sheet for the main background, I punched flowers with Dovecraft 6x6 Amethyst paper as a frame for Tilda, I used Dovecraft Ribbon Brights attached with Dovecraft Pastel Eyelets and found this matching greeting to set it off. I tried to match the colours to Tilda's clothes a little. Hope you like it

CB Lurveee Bookmark Swap

Well these took ages to make so I hope the recipient's likes them. The main Heart Bookmark is made using 6 hearts with ribbon sandwiched between each piece, The 2 smaller hearts are stamped then I used 3d glaze on them. The Large Heart is covered in Jewels and finished with Glitter glue.

The Love Bookmark was hand drawn and 2 cut out the front is Red reverse is Pink, I decorated the front, each letter is different with a combination of Beads, sequins, Glitter and Glitter glue. I hope you like them...

Today's RAK

I received this Fantastic RAK from Kyla (Lil pidge), love the papers looking forward to using those and the Braids are fab, also some sparkles to go this those too :) Thank you so much Kyla you are so kind..

Card Swap

I received this Fab Card from Crafty Kayleigh, this month's theme was Floral. I love the paper's Kayleigh used on this card.

CB Animal Challenge

I made this simple card last night but didn't have time to upload it, I used half a sheet of a Sentiments greeting Stack on the base of a white card, stamped 2 dog images which I happen to have facing the opposite way, I stamped the Hearts and added rub on words above the Scottie dog, used my Flower punch to make the daisy and added a button, finished with sticky ribbon. The dogs are mounted on Red card and attached with 3d Pads. I wanted to make something fun, hopefully you like it too :)

LMC Issue 15 Challenge

For this months challenge I used 3 elements the Pearls, the Beading and the Greeting die cut, I stamped Groovy Girl image onto White card in Lime Green embossed it them mounted it onto Dovecraft's Aquamarine 6x6 stack, its a little quirky but I like the end result.

Today's Makes

This is a Birthday Card I made for my Neice, I used the 2nd Tilda Stamp I bought, Skipping Tilda, it's perfect for a young girl. Firstly I stamped onto the reverse side of White Hammer card stock, then I stamped a lighter image onto Pink and White paper, cut out her dress and stuck it to the main white image, I then cut a piece of Lilac Card and mounted Tilda onto it leaving a border, I then coloured Tilda in with Gel Glitter pens which matches the silver Card Blank perfectly, I found a Dufex border in Lilac and Silver and embellished that with some lilac sequins and attached a Flower and a Greeting.

Some new Stamps I tried out

I found this great Friends stamp embossed, which I used on some ATC blanks, with some sticky ribbon and some Gems.

The Pink ATC's where stamped again and embossed with some Handmade papers at the bottom that where sent to me in a RAK from Tiggertastic and I pick out the red and pink in the fleck to add sticky daisy ribbons. finished off with Gems.




This Above 60th Card was made using Papermania Simply Elegant 6x6 , a Papermania Ornate Simply Elegant Stamp, I used some foam stamps to make the 60 and finished off with Best wishes Stamp from Anita's Stamp range. I managed to Match the ink exactly with the papers out of sheer luck rather than judgement :)
