Easter lilies and a Magical Monday

Good morning everyone! I'm in Barcelona right now and I'm hoping my scheduled post worked!

Welcome to my fourth and final week as a guest designer for There's Magic In The Air. I want to say a big thank you to Nina for giving me the opportunity and thanks to all the ladies on the team for the weekly inspiration. It's been fun working with you all :)

This weeks challenge is to showcase the beautiful Easter lilies image. I kept the card nice and simple so the image would be the main focus. I also used some Papermania pp, Victoria Cuttlebug embossing folder, Basic Grey pearls and some lace.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you all have a magical Monday :)

Mojo Monday #107

This Saturday we will be celebrating my eldest sons 10th birthday. I can't believe how quickly the years have gone by. I made a card for him using this weeks Mojo Monday sketch. I always find it hard to come up with an idea for male cards and usually end up buying one instead. I'm ashamed to say I don't actually own any stamps suitable for male cards. In my defense the nearest craft store to me is about 100 miles away, so  I do most of my craft shopping online, and the online stores that I usually end up buying from, has a very small or no selection of male stamps. I found a really cool "for him" Papermania pp pad at the craft show that I went to last weekend. So for the card I used that pp, Bazzill & Coredination CS, my new "Stars" Cuttlebug EF and some BasicGrey chipboard letter stickers. I hope Adam likes his card :)

PCMB challenge

Judy gave us a fantastic sketch to work with this week. I loved using it and I'm going to use it tons more :)
I went to a craft show in Athlone on Sunday and I bought lots of new goodies and did a "colouring with Stamping Bella class", which was soooo much fun! I learned so much in that hour long class!
So for my card for Judy's challenge, I used lots of new goodies, Papermania pp, gem & ribbon, Stamping Bella - Emma stamp, Coredination cs and Victoria CB embossing folder. I just love new goodies! :)

Friday sketchers #63

I loved this Friday sketchers sketch so had to make a card with it :) I'm still on a mission to get my Christmas cards made early so I made a card using my new Papermania Home for Christmas pp pad, new Papermania Joyeux Noel clear stamps, Papermania embossed card, Colorbox cranberry ink, gems and some ribbon. Definately going to put this sketch to a lot more use!
