Tis the Season for a Helping Hand!!!

Over at Sundays with Crissy the challenge is Your Favourite Time of Year. I am constantly amazed that I can work in retail throughout the christmas madness and it's still my favourite time of year!!!
I followed the sketch over at Fussy and Fancy Friday, image of course is Crissy Armstrong coloured with my copics, DP is Bo Bunny "Tis the Season", flowers are also Bo Bunny "Tis the Season", I have added stickles to everything, raindrops, pearls, "fluffy balls" ribbon and text is a SU stamp. I am also entering the following challenges:
Papertake Weekly - Something Old, New, Borrowed, Blue (my old is the raindrops that I have had forever, new is my white pearl brad in the flower, borrowed is Neekys backward style of card - yup Narny went to open it and it opens upside down which is a classis Neeky cardmaking trait, blue is my blue pearls)
Cute Card Thursday - Trees or Leaves (my christmas tree)
Digi Doodle Shop - Flowers (can't get much bigger than this little ole Bo Bunny number)

So thats all from me, I have been busy creating a card for Neekys soccer coach and am so impressed with our combined talents that I am going to whip up a few spares for me!

Narny's Nook - Christmas on the Beach!!!

Narny (14) chose the sketch over at Simple Doodles to follow, her image is SU (we haven't inked a stamp for so long, it's a wonder we remembered how to do it), coloured with copics, DP is BG Cupcake, ribbon is also SU and brads and random from the stash. Narny also followed:
Delightful Sketches - Beach (Santa is having some much needed R & R)
Cute Card Thursday - Get a head start on christmas (this is Narny's 2nd christmas card for the year)
Oh La La Challenge Blog - Christmas in July - Narny thinks this is a perfect time to get christmas card making)
Bunny Zoe Crafts - summertime (whats more summery than Santa and his reindeer out for a waterski)

Kick Your Heels Up!!!

Neeky and I sat down this morning and made cards, I'll show you her one later. I used the Tuesday Morning Sketches sketch and I love this digi image from Amanda Kastner, it comes with a poem sentiment which I have placed inside. I coloured this with my copics (as always), DP is BG Eva, there is clear spica pen on dress and all around the swirls on the DP, stickles on her shoes, pearls are Bazzill, flowers and ribbon from my stash, I made the pin and cuttlebugged the squares, phew no wonder I feel worn out LOL. I also made this for the following challenges:
City Crafter - pink, purple and pearls (they are all on there)
Everybody Art Challenge - pink and green (both are there in all their glory)
The Creative Cottage - pearls and swirls (the swirls are on the dp and pearls are everywhere)
ABC Challenges - X is for extra (this card has extra everything, sparkle, pearls, ribbon (3 types), layers (the image is 3 layers, the bow is a 4th layer)
Cute Card Thursday - reuse, renew, recycle (all the beads on my pin are recycled from old jewellery that was broken)

Another lazy day today, Zak is staying another week, its so nice to have him here, I do really miss him when he's at Uni (he's my boy, Mum's boy).

Just for Viv!!!

Viv has been hassling me about joining her at the Karens Doodles UK Challenge site and finally I have managed to create something - just for her. Using one of my favourite Karens Doodles images this is for the Animal Magic Challenge this weeek. I have used BG Euphoria paper, coloured my image with copics, made my own flowers, which are distressed and added a few buttons to finish. I am also entering this in the ABC Challenges - T is for Thank You, Saturday Challenge - distressing something, Bee Crafty Downloads - Whole Lotta Fun, Cute Card Thursday - Making Something on your card (flowers) and Our Creative Corner using flowers.

What's Up, Pussy Cat!!!

Decided this was a very appropriate card for today, as my darling Sookie has gone to the vet for that special little op (otherwise known as speying)plus a microchip in case my baby gets lost. Anyway this card has been created for the following: Wags N Whiskers Challenge - Scallops, Spoonful of Sugar - sketch, ABC Challenges - sparkles, Cute Card Thursday - Touchy Feely. Image is Wags N Whiskers "Furry Friends" coloured with my copics, paper is BG Cupcake.
