Sorry You Are Leaving---BUT

Morning and I have two DT posts today the second one is for the ATG/spooky/scary challenge at Simply Create and as I don't know anyone who sends Halloween cards I went with ATG.
I used the cute image Two Toby from Mos Digital Pencil coloured with promarkers.
The background was made with distress inks smooshed on a craft mat and a craft mag freebie script stamp added.
The sentiment was computer generated in Dafont and a personalised message carried on inside.

UPDATEthank you for all your lovely comments and best wishes on an earlier post apparently it needs doing but not urgent urgent so probably in the Spring.

Little Penguin Reindeer

Morning and I have two DT posts today-the first one is for the ATG at Colour Crazy and as we are sponsored by Bugaboo I used the image Little Penguin Reindeer coloured with promarkers-with doodling round the edges.

Now this card started off like what am I going to do with this image shall I just make a tag? Finding no suitable Christmas papers that went with I looked through my oddments and found the wood effect scrap that just fitted the card when matted with a piece of grey card,an odd shaped piece of hammered card that I swiped with inkpad after reading Chrissys tip and decided to leave the shape as is-cut the image with a Spellbinders die and matted onto grey card-sentiment was a craft mag freebie---ooh quite like the end result and all oddments.
Don't forget for our challenge the image must be hand coloured -hope you can join us---oops forgot to ad pic lol!!!

Perfect Heart

How weird is this -went for heart check up today to be told the hole in my heart they found last year has got bigger and I need keyhole surgery to close it.Come home and make a coffee -rip open a chunky kitkat and a small piece of the wrapping lands on my thumb in a perfect heart even the point-could not even cut one that perfect??? Matthew couldn't believe it and took the pic for me was so glad he was there to witness it or no-one would have believed me!!!

Autumn Joy Fat Page

Morning and I have two posts today the second one is for the Autumn challenge at CCC Digi Creations and as we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter I used the pre-coloured version of Autumn Joy.
I decided to make a 4" square fat page-not made one of these for ages-so resized the image-cut it three times and decoupaged with 3-D sticky pads. Matted onto coruggated packaging then final scrap of leftover P.pape from stash onto which I added three little strips of old dictionary paper then stamped edges with my fave texture stamp.

You Are Pawsome

Morning and can you believe October already only seems like yesterday we were saying that about September now been and gone!!!
I have two DT posts today and the second one is for the Spooky and/or Cute challenge at Pearly Sparkles.I made a CAS card using craft mag freebie stamps.I silver embossed the sentiment and writing this just remembered I silver embossed food/water dishes too!!!
I coloured the dog with promarkers and stamped the basket twice onto P.paper then cut out just the front and put onto 3-D pads so I could sit the dog slightly behind and the Gummiapan die-cut frame was cut from some colourful packaging-matted and layered and done.
