Challenge #202

Good morning crafters,
I think it's gonna be a nice sunny one!

It's my turn to host the challenge over at
Sunday Sketch and Stamp
so hop on over and join in following this sketch:

Here's my card:

How sweet is this image from Stamposaurus, I forgot I'd got it so this is it's first inking. My Mum brought it for me when we went to the BS&S show when it was held in Kettering. Unfortunately it was only held there for 1 year which is a shame as it so much easier to get to for us than Ally Pally.

The papers were a Crafters Companion freebie with a magazine many years ago. The sentiment is a Papermania stamp & the butterflies were cut out in white on the sillohette, coloured with markers and glittered with glamour dust.

Hop on over to the Challenge blog for more super ideas from the talented DT

Ellie Elephant

Good Evening,

I'm a bit late today and have been a little quiet of late. This is because my Daughter's laptop is still poorly so we are sharing mine, I get withdrawal symptoms and when I get a chance to use it I don't know what to do first.

Anyway onto my card & today it is one that I was asked to do by a friend of a friend. She picked the image which is  Ellie Elephant by Stamposaurus, I used spectrum noirs & chalk to colour it in & cut it out leaving a little border all the way round. The numbers were cut out on the silhouette in a pattered paper and a shadow in silver mirri. The image, number & sentiment have been raised onto an embossed background.

I would just like to say a bit thank you to Polka Doodles who gave me 2nd place for my Patriotic Nelly card in their challenge Regal colours - Diamond Jubilee. What a surprise, I was chuffed thank you

Happy crafting
