40th Birthday

Happy Bank Holiday Monday to all!! Hope you're having a crafty day. I have only managed one card so far as we've been out swimming with the kids and then to buy some new bits for the hamster - Cookie. He's such a cutie.

Anyway, here's the card ... my first using a Tilda. One of my lovely blog followers Debbie stamped some Tilda's and posted them to me. Thanks again Debbie. Let me know what you think of my 1st Tilda card.


I am entering Sketch Saturday #105 with this card.

Enjoy the rest of your day and don't get wet in the rain tomorrow! But by Thursday it will be hot hot hot again - yippee!! (If the weather forecast is right anyway, lol)

Buzzy hugs, Donna x

Baby on the Way!

This card is for an expectant mum (as if you hadn't guessed lol!!). This card is entered into Friday Sketchers sketch #104 as I followed their sketch.

The stamp is Lucy from In Style which you can purchase from Dies to Die For by clicking here. I coloured her with Promarkers and cut her out with a Nestie. The patterned papers used are from Basic Grey Bittersweet paper pad which I have had for a while now. The rest are from my stash. The sentiment was just typed up in word and printed onto card and then I finished off with a lovely flower and a few gems.


Hope you like and thanks for looking.

Hugs, Donna x

Father's Day Cards

Hi there bloggers! Today I have been making the 6 yes 6! father's day cards requested by the same person! She gives to grandads too so that's why she needed so many!

I didn't follow any sketches or themes, so no comp entries here.







Thanks for looking, Donna x

Nikki & Janet

Evening all! I don't always post mid week but my friend Angela is keeping me busy and asked me to do two cards for her this week.

The first card features Martini Nikki from Ladybug Crafts Ink. I love these stamps! I coloured her with Promarkers and followed the sketch over at Mojo Monday #140 where I have entered this card.


I blinged her martini up a bit!

The next card is for a lady and the request was 'floral'. I have entered this into


My stash used for this card is:
Background paper - Fancy Pants
Flowers - Prima
Ribbon & gems - from ever growing stash!
Name printed in brown on cream card from stash (font is Vivaldi)
Happy Birthday and swirl stamped in Versamark ink in Toffee

Enjoy!

Post 4 of 4!


Well, this is my final post for today. As you can see I have been a busy buzzy bee again this week! I have a lot of friends at work that keep requesting cards from me! I still have another 9 cards to make, but I only have one more week at work and then I have a week off so I can catch up then!

This final card is for one of my friends best friend. Fingers crossed she'll like it. I would like to enter this for Anyone for Anya Challenge - Double Trouble 23.5.10 and Sketch Saturday week #104 as I followed their sketch (I put the sentiment in a different place but I hope that's OK?).



Well that's me done for the day! Thank you to those who have looked at all 4 of my posts ... hope it wasn't too tedious!

Buzzy hugs, Donna x

Post 3 of 4!

This next card was a request and the recipient has a love of cats. This is my favourite card of all the ones that I made today. What do you think?

I would like this to be entered into Penny Black Saturday Challenge #102 lots of dots, Polka Doodle week 20 challenge Something for mum and also Friday Sketchers sketch #103 as this is the sketch I followed.


I added stickles to all the bubbles but it doesn't show up very well in the piccie.

Phew, nearly there - just one more post to go!

Post 2 of 4!

2nd Post of the day! This card was requested by a work friend. It's for a friend of hers who loves English Sheepdogs. I'm not too sure about this card. I'll let you know if my friend likes it!

I followed the sketch on Cute Card Thursday Challenge #113 and would like this card to be entered.

2 down 2 to go!
