Shabby Tea Room Challenge week 108 homegrown flowers

The Shabby Tea Room challenge this week was to use their beautiful photo for inspiration and to make sure that you had handmade flowers on your card. These Flowers on my card are made from paper and card and even though they took a long time to make I love how they finish the card off. I need to make a lot of thank you cards so this challenge was perfect for that.

There is so much inspiration on the shabby tea room blog why not head over there and have a look, the designers are just amazing.

cricut imagine best friends & Cameo

I have got to say I am loving this cart for the imagine made by the lovely cosmo cricket bunch, the images are just amazing.  There is also an amazing bunch of papers to print out definitely one of my favourites at the moment.

How lucky was I to get this for Christmas! I am seriously impressed!! The way the cameo cuts is just mind blowing! I love the fact that I can design and weld designs on the computer it really is a dream.

The Ribbon Girl Colour Challenge: Pink and White.

Over at the lovely Ribbon girl Blog the challenge is 'Pink and White'. I love using pink and white so I decided to make a couple of cards:

 A cute Christmas mouse :) The mouse was cut on my cricut machine which I then stuck together and added a wobbly eye.

 The large paper flower on the Happy Anniversary card is handmade, I just punched out lots of different flower shaped and glued them together. The silhouette couple was cut using my cricut.

I made all my cards using white and Kraft cardstock then I stamped and decorated them.

Have a look at the Ribbon Girl Blog it is full of inspiration from their amazing design team:

The challenge over at forever friends challenge blog is 'Christmas is coming' so I couldn't wait to make a Christmas card as I have only made a few but I am doing much better than last year!

I used my cuttlebug embossing folder foe the polka dot background and i cut a small tag to use a rub on which I then decorated with snowflakes and glitter.

I love this cute forever friends bear, who looks very cosy and cute!

Wee memories challenge 'Brads,Buttons or Bows'

Hi there, thank you for stopping by my blog. Here is my entry into this weeks wee memories challenge which is brads, buttons or bows. I love bows so I thought I would make a girls birthday card with a bow. I added polka dot papers and and the edge of a border paper to make it extra girly. I then added the sun as I thought it was really cute and finished off the card nicely. Be sure to head on over to the wee memories blog at http://suchins.blogspot.com/

There are some gorgeous cards to drool over along with their lovely stamps.

Wee memories challenge:week 73 'Free for all'

Hi here is my card entry for this weeks challenge at Wee Memories. This week the challenge was to make a project with your own inspiration. So as Christmas will be here soon I made this Christmas card to add to my cards to send out. I stitched the edges of the green paper, layered up some other papers and used my border punch along the bottom. I then added this snowman cut with my cricut to finish off the card. This year I am really enjoying making my Christmas cards as I am normally unorganized and only make a few, which is naughty as I then have to go out and buy a huge stock of cards. Not ideal when you are a cardmaker he he.

The design team have done another amazing job this week at Wee Memories, go and take a look and get ready to be very inspired: http://suchins.blogspot.com/

Wee memories challenge 'holiday madness'.

Hello, here is my card for the Wee Memories challenge 'Holiday Madness'. I thought I would make a Christmas card as I need to make a start and thought this would be a good way to do so. I never make enough Christmas cards but I will start making some more soon.  I thought this mouse and reindeer was so cute so I used my cricut to cut them out, and gave the reindeer a cute scarf and nose. The ribbon is actually an old ribbon from a Christmas present a few years ago so at least im recyling :)

There are loads of lovely cards on the wee memories blog: http://suchins.blogspot.com/
The design team are amazing! Thank you for stopping by,
