'P' Party

(Just noticed I used all 'P' things to create this card - what are the odds!)

Hi, just popping past to share a quick card I made for a young relative of mine.

I kept it reasonably simple and let all those bright bold colours do the talking. I made the pattern in a snap, using my petite pennant punch - easy peesy! The background is also embossed with the perfect polka dots EB folder.

Secret Santa Gift

Hi! Wow, it's been a long time since I have posted anything other that design work! I am creating, but I have been naughty and forgotten to take photos to share and being in the thick of Christmas season, time seems to get away from me :)

Anyway, I'm apart of a fabulous group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators and this is the gifts I sent to my secret santa.

This box was a bought one, which I wrapped with a belly band to hold the lid on.

The flower was made with lots of layers of two scallop circles, which I have crunched for texture and the bag has some leftover circles from the box (which were stitched together) and I finished it off with the motif from  Happy Day stamp set.

And finally my card, this was a re-create from this one I did earlier in the year. I love this simple design. My colours were cherry cobbler, old olive and whisper white and the DSP is season of style - love this stuff :)

TSOT #131

Hi! It's time again for another Try Stampin' On Tuesday sketch.

This one I really struggled with :)

To be honest, I thought this one was in the 'too hard' basket, but to give up would be to defeat the purpose of a challenge - am I right ?? Any way, as I started to pull items out and I came up with a rather clean and simple version of the sketch, but I think it still works.

Now over to you! Try this sketch out - elaborate or keep it clean - either way it's great seeing how you use the sketch. Go here to check out the other design teams creations.

JAI 176 - Just Add Blokes

Hi all, just popping past to share a card that I made for this weeks Just Add Ink challenge, which is 'Just add blokes'. This was perfect timing, as it's Hubby's birthday and I needed a card :)

I went quite graphic and as he's a Port Power fan, I decided to use these colours. I actually printed the 'birthday' from MDS (how awesome is that program?!) And I dont know if you can see it, due to the picture being a bit too stark, grr, but I did emboss the white with the chevron EB folder. I was quite happy with the end result, and I think Hubby was too.

Merry Monday #56

Hi! I had some time this morning, so thought I'd give the sketch over at Merry Monday a go.

I dont know why, but all I could see is trees and so I've taken a lot of creative license to create my card - hope thanks ok :)

I used my petite pennant punch to create the trees and used some jolly holiday dsp - I seriously think this paper has multiplied in my stash, as I never seem to get close to running out :)!

Go and check out the amazing creations and inspiration from the design team here - you wont be disappointed!
