It's still raining......

Thankfully we had decent weather last week when on our holidays with the caravan. Here's a picture of my boys enjoying the North Sea

Cute Card Thursday

I found some long neglected stamps the other day and had a lovely evening colouring them in. This image is from Whiff Of Joy and is by Elisabeth Bell.

Isn't she gorgeous? I coloured her with Promarkers and Flexmarkers, the papers are MME Stella Rose. The Digi Bells are having a Guest Design Team call so I was planning to enter this card. However when I went to link it up and read the post again, they had given a sketch to use and I forgot!!! Never mind, maybe next time. At least I rediscovered all my lovely Elisabether Bell images.It's one more thing in my day today that has not gone to plan. Should have known when this morning I put redcurrant jelly on my toast instead of jam that it was going to be one of those days!!

Time to Rock!

This is one of the fabulous images available from Kenny K. I have coloured him with Promarkers(which my lovely hubby has just ordered more of for me). The DP is Basic Grey. I also used a strip of pearlescent blue cardstock which I embossed using a Cuttlebug folder and some other Kraft cardstock for matting. The sentiment, metalware and brads are all from Stampin' Up!

Daisy Doodles Challenge time

The challenge over at Daisy Doodles is a colour challenge
Yellow + white or cream
I have used lovely bright yellow cardstock from Stampin' up! to make an easel card. The image is SunBEEm and is coloured with Promarkers. I have used a Martha Stewart corner punch to add some decorative corners to both the image and the card. This punch was part of a recent TSV which I couldn't resist!
The sentiment is SU! and the glimmer dots are from stash.
Pop over and join in the challenge, there is a gift certificate up for grabs.
