Little Miss BIG Tuesday

Morning all, today sees a fabulous Pollycraft new release over at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.
There's also your Friday Freebie, and another Sunday Spotlight at a fab discounted price too.
Get yourself over there to grab your freebie and take a special offer ;)
But before you go, please let me show you my card using one of our new release images, this little beauty is Claudia Loves Christmas...

I wanted to layer Claudia's face, hat, arms and bauble, but used glue instead of foam pads.
I decided to change the little bell hanging from Claudia's christmas elf hat to a pom pom, so I found a piece of pom pom trim in my ribbon box, but it was white and it didn't look right, so I had to colour it in to match with a promarker. Much better, it needed colour.
The papers used are all by Kaisercraft, from their Christmas Tradition pad.
My sentiment is yet another taken from my own sheet, Ticket Sentiments - Christmas.

Here's a pic showing the gentle layering and the pom pom...

If you would like to see more of this adorable new release, then please go to the Little Miss Muffet store.
The Little Misses have made a wonderful selection of cards to show you, and you can see them over on the LMM blog.

I'd like to enter this card at:

Christmas in July

Happy Thursday! and a Happy 4th of July to my US friends xx

Today sees another fabulous new release over at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.
There's even more of those adorable Polka Dot Pals to choose from (available as digi's).
Also, there's a range of cute Bugaboo Christmas Fancy Sunbonnet rubber stamps, one of which I chose to showcase today.
This is FSB Christmas Stuff...

The layout for this card was designed by Kathy, for last months Rudolph Day challenge over at Auntys Forum. I have changed the image shape from a circle to square though (sorry Kathy, and i'm sorry for being late with my card too).

I used lots of layers on this card, not only with the papers, but I also layered the image too.

Here's a close up...

 

I've used my promarkers to colour this little beauty.

The papers are all from the same company, Kaisercraft. I received them as a free gift with my craft mag, the collection is called Christmas Tradition.

The sentiment is one of my own, Ticket Sentiments - Christmas.

I'd like to enter this card at:

Easter Egg Bunny Box

This easter egg bunny box is my own design, and is a quick 10 minute make.
I printed the sheet out, then cut out the design, scored it, and built up the decoupage bunny, then glued the tabs to each side to create this cute little treat box. It's just the right size to fit a small fondant creme egg.

I'll add a name tag to it before giving it out.

I'd like to enter the challenges at:
Crafty Bloggers Network - spring or pastel
Bearly Mine - Easter
The Paper Shelter - Easter
Craft Us Crazy - Anything but a card


update 19.03.13 - Woohoooooo! Thank you Bearly Mine Challenges xx

360

This is my version of a xbox 360, I drew a picture of my sons machine and controller, then followed the sketch i'd made to recreate it (similar but not identical) on the pc, adding a background too. The result is a topper sheet which created this card...

When I design toppers I try look into how easy (or not) the design will be to cut out and layer up.
I like to make sure that my designs are manageable for crafters with poor manual dexterity too.
This topper comes together quickly and easily :)

I'd like to enter this card at:
Crafty Cardmakers - masculine birthday featuring technology or a gadget

Pink & Blue Hydrangeas

The following cards were made using my pink and blue hydrangea sheets, available from craftsUprint...

These sheets are suitable for lots of occasions, including; Birthdays, Mothers Day, Anniversary, Get Well Soon and Thinking of you, and have sentiments for Mother, Mother-in-Law, Grandmother, Aunt, Sister, Sister-in-Law, and friend.
A good all rounder for that special lady. The topper fits on an A6 card blank (as shown above).
To buy via craftsUprint, you will need to purchase a minimum order value of £5.00.
Most sheets (including mine) cost just 80p, and there's so many to choose from that you can easily reach the £5 mark.
Alternatively, you can buy the sheets direct from me, there's no minimum order value if you do, all my sheets including these can be found on my other blog Jobo Designs.

Blue Hydrangea

Pink Hydrangea

There's also a matching gift tags sheet available too, which has 10 tags, 5 of each colour.

Thanks for looking xx

Lenny Love

My Sketch Saturday DT card is beneath this post :)

This is a card for my daughter to give to her boyfriend, using another cute image from Stamp Fairy. I coloured Lenny with promarkers, although my caramel promarker is almost empty (as you can probably tell), I had to dab on the colour as best I could, but actually I think that it helped with the look of teddy fur :)
The background paper is my own design, says the words love, harmony, devotion on it.
The sentiment tags were text printed on the pc, then handcut, layered onto kraft card and cut again, using my cropadile to punch the holes and set the eyelets. Tied to the glitter strip with red twine.
Added a red diecut heart and a crystal gem to finish.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Happy Birthday Hubby

Today is my Husbands 40th birthday.

Here's his card from me...

The darker grey paper is from MME's Stella Rose "Hattie" pad,

the other piece is from a freebie paper pad by we r memory keepers which was free with a craft mag.

I used plastic templates to cut out the numbers. They do look a little rough don't they? it's times like this that I wish I had not sold my cricut machine.

challenges:
Lexi's Creations - anything goes
The Pink Elephant - hearts
Bearly Mine challenges - anything goes
Delightful Challenges - have a heart
CES challenges - anything goes

Here's his card from our daughter...

The checked paper is from the same we r memory keepers pad.

The image is from LOTV and has been coloured with pencils for a change from promarkers. I think pencils look good on kraft don't you?

The 'happy birthday' sentiment stamp is by Inkadinkado.

challenges:
 Lexi's Creations - anything goes
 Bearly Mine challenges - anything goes
Card Crafter's Circle - make it colourful
 CES challenges - anything goes

The following card has been made for a motorcycle enthusiast who will be 50 tomorrow...

The gauges were designed by myself, if you'd like them too you can buy the sheet HERE for just 80p, there are lots on one sheet in 3 different sizes...

I will say though that I altered the central gauge for my card so that the speedo points to 50, and the milage clock also says 50. I'm happy to change the design to suit your needs too, just email me before you buy.

The sentiment is computer generated also.
The purple paper, although looking quite masculine to me, is actually from the 'little girl' collection by echo park.

Lexi's Creations - anything goes

Thanks for stopping by today :)

Stamps R Us - Encore Presentations #2

This is my second entry to this weeks Stamps R Us challenge, Encore presentations.

This card was originally posted 02/11/10

The image is of course a lovely hAnglar, coloured with promarkers.
The Paper Weave papers used are my own design and are available in 10 different colours.
I made a matching envelope too, which also had the green paper weave paper lining on the inside too.

Cupcakes that don't have calories :)

This card has been made using the cupcakes that I designed for Cupcake Craft Challenges.

I used my step by step digi sheet, well I used half of the sheet actually because the sheet has enough for two 3D toppers, or for 6 individual images if preferred.

I also have an over the edge 3D topper and a sheet of digi stamps available too for the same cupcake design. You can find them HERE, at my new blog...

other items used:
SU creamy caramel cardstock
SU more mustard patterned paper (inside)
SU sentiment from 'crazy for cupcakes'
acetate
white cardstock
white gel pen
Xcut 4cm border punch - sparkler
crystal gems

Cupcakes!

I recently received an email from the very lovely Faye from Cupcake Craft Challenges, asking if I'd like to design a Cupcake makeover!!
Would I?!! erm.... YES!
Faye gave me an idea of what she'd like the new design to look like, so I got to work in PSP and came up with a design that I'm really proud of and more importantly, a design that Faye and the other cupcakes love *insert BIG smiley face here*
