late night

didnt go to bed untill gone 3am, hopefully after a few days back at work it will tire me out enough to get to sleep at a sensible time. i managed to make two cards after my girls went to bed but i can only show one for now as i can,t let some of my followers know i made 1 as its a group competition. i can however show the other and here it is lol, this was made for a colour challenge over on cadc, pink/green and yellow. think i fullfilled that lol

blue christmas bear

over on my ebay group we do a challenge set regularly, this one was for a blue card,
i decided to do a blue bear as i was going through some old mags and found some free blue papers,  backing is dovecraft christmas paper, matting is the free blue paper, digi image coloured with promarkers.

this has been entered into the following challenges

creative craft world      a square card

lexies creations     a bear

one of those grr cards

ever had a project that just wont go to plan,
i decided to make a rocker card after finding a sheet i liked and tied in with  the trimcraft cupcake challenge.
this card was meant to be sooo easy to do. print, cut and assemble job done, what can so difficult about that.
well i printed cut and assembeled and stood the card up and what do i get, flop thats what. instead of standing and swaying from side to side it just flopped. so i dismantled what i could made it into a basic long card lol.
result

i will get to grips with the rocker style, will need to find my compass cutter and make the rocker out of stiffer card.

new digi blog on the block

new technique, (well to me anyway)

i was bored and browsing the forums to see if anything caught my attention,
i had coloured my image in the colours for the challenge i was taking part in, pink and chocolate.
a post called cuttlebug quilting caught my attention, the rest is easy, i just had to try it but had to get some zzzzds first.
things didnt go arccording to plan very well, i was intending on doing a a4 in half size card, but my measuring and laying down went to pot, so had to chop the base to fit a smaller card.
cant say my colouring with promarkers is improving  but it looks worse when the pic is scanned
the image is a from fairy dust crafts,
another card for my sample box which my girls use for their freinds, hopefully next attempt will work out properly lol
challenge was set by craftysandra over on trimcraft,
does anyone remember caramac, when i saw the lighter brown card in my box it sooo reminded me of that, i loved it as a child, so i just had to use some lol
