Cozy & Bright...

I love this cute digi stamp! You can download it for free this week at "There's magic in the air". This is my second card using this weeks Friday Sketchers sketch! I had so much fun with both challenges that I think I will make a few more cards with this image and sketch, it's not very often that I say that!

I used Papermania pp & button, There's magic in the air "cozy & bright" digi stamp, Tartan Cuttlebug embossing folder, Carolyn King "warm winter wishes" sentiment stamp, glitter and some Kars fibres.

I was lucky enough to win this cool prize on last weeks There's magic in the air challenge! How cool is that?!!

Skating by....

My friend Judy is hostess for this weeks challenge on the PCMB. She asked us to make a Christmas card using a non traditional image or non traditional colours. Lucky for me there was a few days added to the challenge so I got to play along. I used a digi image from There's Magic In The Air, some pp from my friend Patti, silver card, D'vine swirls Cuttlebug folder and Papermania ribbon and snow stamp.  I'm also submitting this card for these challenges:

A stamp for Henry

The cute stamp that I used on this card is a stamp to honour the life of a little boy named Henry, you can read more about him  here on the Paper make up stamps blog.  As a mother of two boys, I really found the story heartbreaking, so I bought the stamp to make a card for each of my boys for Christmas.

I used a sketch from last weeks PCMB challenge, the new Tartan Cuttlebug embossing folder, Papermania ribbon and some snowflakes.

Just us girls are doing a charity challenge this week using this stamp to help raise money for Henry's family. If you can, please stop by their blog and show your support.

After a few days in bed with a cough, cold and sore throat, I have finally got around to posting  this card that I made, using the sketch  on the Stamp something challenge blog. I used my "Emma" stamp from the Lulu collection from Stamping Bella, Basic Grey pp, Victoria CB embossing folder, X-cut flower punch and a Papermania button.

Thanks for stopping by today :)

Thankful

Last weeks challenge on the Cuttlebug blog was to  create a project using the theme of "Thanksgiving or Gratitude". Here is my take on the challenge.

ISC challenge & a card for Jaimie

This is my first time hosting a challenge on ISC. My favourite type of challenges are sketch challenges so I came up with the sketch below (thanks to my hubby for transfering it from paper to the laptop!) and if the players would like an added challenge, to use just one colour for pp and embellishments. I'm also asking if the players could send their challenge cards to Jaimie Cates, you can check out the blog for Jaimie here. We are always looking for new players, so if you haven't played along before why not stop by and take part.

I'm so happy

I just found out that I won the new Tartan folder on the Cuttlebug blog!!!!!! YEAY! I can't wait to get it :) Thanks Terrie! You have made my day!

Thanksgiving card

This is the first Thanksgiving card that I have ever made, as we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Ireland. That said I have a lot to be thankful for, my hubby being one, so I am going to give it to him. This weeks challenge on the PCMB is hosted by Sue and she challenged us to make a Thanksgiving card with a turkey, pilgrim or cornucopia on it. I got a beautiful digi image from There's magic in the air, and their challenge was to use the cornucopia image and a button. I also used this weeks Mojo Monday sketch, Papermania pp, button & gems and Victoria Cuttlebug EF.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Some new layouts

Just wanted to share these 2 LO's that I did over the weekend. The first one I scraplifted from the November issue of Creating Keepsakes. I used Coredinations cs, Doodlebug & Dovecraft pp, Bo Bunny & Papermania flowers, Spare parts flower/ribbon/brad.
The second one is Bazzill & Coredinations cs, Claire Fontaine pp, Making Memories ribbon, Papermania flower & gem & Colorbox vellum quote.

ISC challenge

Our challenge hostess Heather, asked us to make a Christmas card using white and one other colour. I haven't made a girly Christmas card yet this year so I decided to use pink as my "other" colour. I used Colorbox ink, Coedinations card, Inkadinkado stamp, Snowflakes & D'vine swirls Cuttlebug EF's and some American crafts ribbon.
