I also used:

Promarkers

Die-namics wonky stitch rectangles dies

Pink Petticoat sentiment (sadly retired)

Stampin Up punch

papers from the Works

glossy accents and black gems

white gel pen for highlights - not sure if I drew them in the right place but never mind!

as you like it challenge favourite-sketch-layout-and-why? this is my favourite sketch because I like to use 2 different patterned papers (mostly a dotty one on the bottom) separated with ribbon half way with the image in the middle.

as you like it challenge. favourite-clean-simple-or-fussy-fancy. why? - an easy one for me definitely fussy and fancy because no matter how hard I try I cannot master the CAS look. I end up actually sitting on my hands in an attempt to not plaster my card with all the gems, pearls, ribbons and embellishments!!

Spellbinders Flower Cart - Mothers day card

A change from a House-Mouse card today:

I have broken my no new craft items spend with this die from Spellbinders - Flower Cart. In fairness I had saved lots of pennies so I thought why not! I used Make & Create Vintage Romance papers and Crea-Nest-Lies - XXL ticket square die. I wanted to make the sign into a chalk board so I heat embossed a Stampin Up! sentiment (Heartfelt hello's) in white embossing powder and then added a bit of chalk around it. I cut the flowers from lots of snippets of coloured card and added Stickles and liquid pearls to the centres. To finish off I added some candy dots - remember those?!

challenges:

Pixies snippets playground challenge - (must use snippets) here are the snippets I used:

I didn't end up using the pink one on top but used other green snippets not photographed!

Simon says stamp Monday challenge Transport it - I figured my cart transports flowers!!

thanks for stopping by and I hope you manage to find some craft time today!

House-Mouse decoupage card

Hello from a beautiful sunny Devon day 🌞

I think this image is from the House-Mouse decoupage cd and the papers are old Stampin Up!

There wasn't enough room for a sentiment so I didn't add one 😃 but I did add some of my favourite glossy accents to the strawberries to make them shine 🍓. The image is not cut out perfectly so please don't look too closely!! 

Challenges:

cd Sunday challenge. - use cd/digi image

House-Mouse easel card

Like all of my other House-Mouse images I printed it off a long time ago and can't remember which cd rom that I used 😞- I think it might be the Joanna Sheen triple cd. I must be more organised like the lovely Jules-always with a heart blog  . when she prints off images/papers she then puts them into folders with the name on so that everything it kept together - genius!!

The papers are Crafts Consortium and I used Glossy Accents on the jar and cherries to make them shine.
