Christmas Eatings

Time for another fabulous new release over at Little Miss Muffet Stamps :)
Prepare for cuteness overload!...

This adorable character is Pudding Chester. If you love Chester, then you'll love this release ;)
I echoed the image on the left side of the card base by using a punch to look as though a bite has been taken from the card. Think that next time i'll add more bites around the edge :)
The patterned paper is Nordic Christmas (First Edition).
I die cut the corners, the greeting and the holly leaves glued to the greeting, then finished the card with red crystal gems.

I'd like to enter this card at:
Cards For Men - merry christmas
Crafty Calendar - all things christmas

Yep! that's right, you can now buy a selection of Little Miss Muffet stamps, here, in the UK, exclusively at My Mum's Craft Shop :)
This little beauty is one of the stamps you can buy right now, Fancy Sunbonnet Flowers.

To celebrate, the Little Misses are joining forces with the the MMCS design team for a blog hop, and there are prizes to be had ;) All you have to do is leave comments as you hop, the more comments you leave the better chance you have of winning a prize as the winners will be drawn randomly from the comments left.

You will have visited me via the lovely Jane, if you didn't, then you can start at the beginning of the hop HERE.

For my card, I coloured the image with my promarkers including the surrounding frame, which is a lea'bilities die. I added a bit of bling to the frame with some cerise gemstones.
I punched out the sentiment, which is from SU's best yet stamp set, then cut off the top of the punched circle and placed it over the edge of the frame. I finished off by paper piercing the edge for a faux stitched look.
The background paper is a freebie from a craft mag.

Sunflower Patch

Happy Saturday everyone! as you know by now, at Little Miss Muffet, Saturdays are SUPER!
Not only can you buy the spotlighted stamp at a super duper discounted price, you can also grab yourself a freebie! :)
This week, Barbara is giving away this fabulous freebie; Sunflower Patch...

I decided I wanted to fussy cut this great image, it took a while to do, but i'm very happy with the outcome :)
The image didn't need much else in my eyes, so I kept it clean and simple by simply embossing the kraft card base (swiss dots folder) and stamping the greeting (from SU's 'Bring on the cake' stamp set). Simples!

Crafty Creations - autumn colours

Seeing Dots

Like many of you, I love the Polka Dot Pals. So when I heard that the new challenge at Little Miss Muffet is 'Seeing Dots' I knew straight away where to look for my image. Only problem is choosing which one because they are all so cute!...

This is Katie. I love her ringlet pig tails, and isn't she cuddling just the cutest puppy ever?
As usual, I coloured the image with my promarkers.
The dotty paper is by My Mind's Eye, from their Lime Twist - Life of the Party paper pad. I just love the colours in this collection.
The sentiment is from Create with TLC, I thought it suited the image perfectly.
I finished off with a small punched heart, awwww puppy love :)

New Polka Dot Pals!

I've really been looking forward to telling you about this new release from Little Miss Muffet Stamps,
and now I can! YAY!
There's more new Polka Dot Pals released today :)
and they are just as adorable too, and now you can add some ready made faces if you don't feel confident enough to draw them yourself...

Meet Issie, she has been coloured with promarkers, and i've added one of the faces to her.
The sky has been sponged. Then I added some white flock for the snow at the bottom.
The snowflake paper is from Dovecraft's merry magic paper pad with a strip of paper from First Edition's silent night pad at the bottom. I paper pricked around the papers and drew on my 'stitches' with a red marker.
The sentiment is computer generated, next to this i've added some snowballs, which are little pompoms cut off a scrap of ribbon.

Party Monster

Here's a quick make from me.
This cute and fun image is from Pollycraft, bought before Paula closed its doors. Isn't it fab?

I've used Lime Twist - Life of the Party papers from My Mind's Eye. and used similar coloured promarkers to colour up Party Monster.
'mikey' is die cut using By the Letter dies from Die-namics, and the '3' is a chipboard number.
