Boys cards

I made a couple more boy cards with the fabby boys and girls kit at Funky Fairy's! The papers really are delicous! I ususally find boys cards so hard but not with these :o) I used a Sugar Nellie stamp on one card (monkeh) and a Penny Black doggy stamp on the other. x

DCM challenge - pins & needles

I bought the latest download from Funky Hand today. What delicious papers they are! You can find them here. I used them when making this weeks DCM challenge "pins & needles" - design a card using pins or needles of some sort.

















I made a brown square card blank & covered with one of the papers from paper blossom at Funky Hand. I then cut a strip of stripy paper (again paper blossom) and adhered it 2 thirds of the way down the card. I stamped Lola (Sugar Nellie) onto white card and coloured her with watercolour pencils, then partially cut her out and mounted her on more paper (paper blossom again) and then onto brown card. I doodled stitches around Lola. Next I cut out one of the patterned flowers and a "Happy Birthday" sentiment and mounted lower right. I edged the flower with glitter glue and attached some DCWV ribbon with a safety pin to the lower right of the card. Lastly a velvet Prima flower and jewel brad in the top right corner.

Cute rabbit

I love this Sugar Nellie stamp. For this card I used a lemon pearlescent card blank, glitter matt stack paper by DCWV, watercolour pencils, glitter glue, hot pink card, doodling and a sentiment flower by Craftwork Cards.






My time to craft challenge

This week the challenge is quotes & sayings. I used paper by fancy pants designs, a die cut saying, doodling and a Sugar Nellie stamp.




Monkeh/scrummystash cafe challenge

What can I say other than I love my monkeh! I have had fun playing with him tonight. The challenge at Scrummystash cafe is to add decorative borders/edges to your project. I've used Pirate Monkey - from Sugar Nellie, Flower & stem die cut by Craftwork Cards, watercolour pencils and inking/doodling a border around the flower die cut and the card itself. For the card below I also used stamps by paperartsy. Ooh and glitter glue on both.

Funky Fairy's challenge - bling!

It's Han's turn to set the dare this week and she wants us to bling up our cards.
















I played with my new monkeh!! He is from the new little cotton rabbits range at Sugar Nellie. He is soooo cute (although today he is a girl as he's in pink & purple!). I coloured him with watercolour pencils. The card is a lilac square blank. I've used a freebie download paper for the backing (available here http://funkyfairyinspirations.blogspot.com/) and made a frame using lilac lush paper available from Funky Fairy's papercrafts. The bling came in several forms - glitter glue on monkeh's jumper, shiny bead wire wrapped round the frame and jewels in each corner of the card and the centre of the prima flower. Monkeh is suspended upside down - the cheeky devil!

Girly card/My Time To Craft Challenge

This was my last make of the day and it fits in nicely with the My Time To Craft Challenge which is "Tickled Pink". Hot pink card blank embossed with the cuttlebug friends folder. I also ran over the raised bit with a white ink pad. I stamped Lola image onto white card and watercoloured her in. I 3d foam mounted her on to the card, then made a flower with pink ribbon and attached with a pearl brad. Finally I edged the entire card in black. I do so like making girly cards :-)
