Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge #40

Today's challenge is a little late, almost a week late in fact but you all know the old saying, 'Better late then never'.

It's the Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge #40. This week it's a sketch and this is my take on the sketch:

Dare you too

The latest challenge on Dare you too Digital stamp challenge is for Pink, Black and White so here goes.
Products used:
1 base card 14cm x 14cm when folded.
I stamp from the Glamour Girls sheet
Pin up stamp from the same sheet as the glamour girls.
Stazon Ink pad in Stone Grey
9mm pink ribbon ribbon with white spots
Silver card
Pink bloom
Pink button 3d foam pads
Double sided tape.

Cupcake Craft Challenge 48

This challenge is entitled, 'Blossoms and Butterflies' so I think that this hand drawn card qualifies for the challenge.

Some of you may have seen me demonstrating this card when I showed you how to draw with calligraphy pens.

Vintage Lady with Flower Dress

Something completely different!
Is the challenge site for this card. The theme this week is for vintage so without further ado I reached for another of my new vintage lady stamps and I was away. I've kept the colours muted too so that they add to the vintage feel.

Products used:
Fashion lady 7
Mixed natural buttons
Ivory and scarlet double faced satin ribbon.
Large Ivory Tea roses.
Border punch from Fiskars.

Pink and Brown for Theme Thursday Challenge

The challenge this week on the Theme Thursday site was for Pink and Brown so instead of making a card I decided to make a bag similar to the blue one that I made last week.

This cute little bag is embellished with a scalloped edged piece of card front and back and layered up with brown paper that I had in my stash. The little perfume bottle is from Savvy Stamps and is on special offer at the moment on the Craft Fairy site.
The brown dotty ribbon is here, and the pink dotty ribbon is here.

I've been away for a few days but I'm back now and ready to take up the gauntlet of card challenges once again. This is today's attempt and it's for theBasic Grey Inspiration Challenge Challenge #81 on Carte Maniak', and The Next Level Issue Six.

How many of you are going to the Art Stamps Fair at Newbury at the weekend? If you are then please come along and say hello. Craft Fairy will be there with lots of goodies and demonstrations for you all. Please tell me if you read my blog as feedback is precious.

Vintage Lady with Striped Dress

Yet again, I'm drooling over new stamps and as the lovely producers have sent me samples I just had to get on with a card sraight away. I got the layout from Our Creative Corner and I was off. It is so similar to the layout on ICSketchers that I entered it for that too.

To make this card, you will need to use:
Vintage Lady 5, Unmouted rubber stamp from Stampinback
Sheer wine ribbon in 16mm width.
Art and Graphic pens from Kuretake to colour th eimage.

The Pink Elephant Challenge #21

The latest Pink Elephant Challenge #21 is for your favourite colour combination. Well.... those of you who know me well would be shocked if I used anything other than pink so here we are with pink and a little green.

Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge #38

The theme on Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge #38 is PRETTY PACKAGING. Well, I couldn't resist as I had a great idea that was all ready to go.

I just love this little bag that I made recently using the new fennel seed stamp from Stampinback . The stamp is coloured directly with the Art and Graphic pens from Zig, Kuretake in colours 308 and 58.

The two ribbons are blue saddle stitch in 9mm and 3mm.
