Happy Birthday

I've finally found my mojo and made a card from start to finnish today and found lots of challenges to enter it into.

I followed the Sketch at Just Magnolia and the Recipe at Fussy and Fancy (three papers, two embellishments (flowers and charm) and one ribbon)



I've used the gorgeous "Ella Blue" papers which I've been after for ages and got them half price at Range last week, the flowers are Kaisercraft and of course the lovely Hanglar StAnglar coloured with Copics and a Spellbinders tag.

It also fits in with:

A Spoon Full of Sugar - Anything Goes
Bunny Zoes - Lace
C.R.A.F.T - Happy Birthday
Crafter's Companion - Girls Birthday
Crafts and Me - Anything Goes with optional Kraft
Crafty Catz - Anything Goes

Back in blogland

Thought it was about time I got back into the swing of things. We just had a lovely week's holiday in Whitby and before that I was snowed under with orders and didn't have time to post anything.

Whilst we were away I caught up on some colouring as all my orders had been for fishing and cowboys some girly images were well needed.

Here's a selection of my latest cards, I'm going to do some blog hopping and check out the challenges later.

Thanks for looking

Thinking of You - Always

I'm so excited got my first "official" Hanglar stamps, YIPPEE! They have started to sell them via Ebay but be warned they sold out fast! Really pleased with them, they arrived in three days from Sweden.

Anyway back to the card, I've coloured my lovely little girl in with Copics and love the colours I chose. The yummy papers are from a DCWV Premium stack so the striped one is embossed and glittered. Used the Cuttlebug Candy Stripe embossing folder for some more Texture. A lovely bright Prima flower and gem centre with a Sizzix flourish.

Totally Gorjuss DT card - Flower Power and Challenge Between Friends

This week over at Totally Gorjuss we want to see lots of flowers on your creations, I can't believe how many boxes of flowers I've got and still want more, lol.

I've used a lovely "borrowed" Hanglar and coloured her with Copics the papers are from a DCWV stack and the flowers are Prima.



This is also for a Challenge set by Sandy C over on Docrafts - Purple and Yellow I'm a bit late making this so thought I'd combine the two.

1st Copic Card

I normally use Promarkers but thought I`d get some Copics to try. After waiting a week for them to arrive one out of two sets I ordered came yesterday.

So here is my first card, coloured as best as you can with a choice of five colours. Just used Promarkers for the skin and flower stem.

The image is a Hanglar and the sentiment downloaded from Funkyfairiespapercrafts.

I love them and want lots more - knew I would.
