Look At What I Got !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know when you're out shopping and you just happen by a shop and there's something in the window that really catches your eye and you can hear it calling you "Buy me, buy me now", well that's how it was with this card I saw on Marys Blog - My Cardz. I kept looking at it and going back to look at it when I just had to ask if I could buy it. Well Mary said she hadn't sold a card before but she was happy to let me have it. And here it is. All framed up and ready to hang on my wall next to my desk. If you want to have a look at it close up click here, this'll take you straight to Marys' post about the card. She even sent me some stamped images of the little Bee :), but one things for sure I couldn't possibly make a card as kissably cute as this one.

xx THANK YOU MARY xx

Halloween - Spooky Friends

Evening all, Well I've just started on my House Mouse Challenge, and while I'm waiting for my glue to dry I thought I'd show you a card I made about a month ago.

The Sketch is one (I think) by Claudia of Pretty Pressings. The stripey backing paper was made by me on the computer and the two other papers were freebies I found on the internet. The dog and cat stamp is by Serendipity Stamps and the "bush" is actually the tree with carved heart by Magnolia. All the stamp images were coloured in with Derwents Coloursoft pencils and Sansodor, as was the sky. The sky has padded stars and clear rhinestones stuck on. The spider and web are buttons from Dress It Up and the sentiment is one I bought a loooong time ago from a local book shop that were selling some craft stuff. Oh the three panels are mounted onto purple mirri card as is the main image but being mirri card it just looks black in the photo.
Right I'm off to see if my glitter's dried, if not I'll go and find someone in the house to annoy until it does :) So until the next time..
Take care & keep smiling

House Mouse Challenge 8 - Halloween

This is my entry for the House Mouse Monday Challenge No.8 which is to make a card for Halloween...

I'm very pleased with the way the card turned out. I used Derwent's Coloursoft pencils and Sansodor.And the close up of the spider as he looks just looks like a blob on the card photo. The papers used are by Creative Imaginations except the stripy one, that was made by me on the computer. The sentiment is from House Mouse, stamped on pearlescent orange card and heat embossed with Sparkle N Sprinkle patina gold EP, then cut round. The main stamp is called Frightingly Adorable, which was mounted onto black card and sponged with Brilliance orange inkpad. Then last but not least two black jewelled brads and a spider button from Dress It UP. The sketch I used unfortunatley I can't remember where I got it from, if you do, let me know and I'll add a link on this page (give credit where it's due). Thank you for looking.
