something new

So it's all about something new from Winter Wonderland and that could be a new home , new baby ect
I went with new baby and for some reason I never seem to make many of these bit like men;s cards so will have to try not to do that any more .

We also have a treat of two sponsors for this week
Crafts U Love and their winner will get a £10 voucher
A Day for Daisies and their winner will get a $12 gift card

So guess it's that time again to show my card and say what items I used

Items used
Crafters companion - paintbox poppets Cd for the topper and backing papers
My stash for the flower and core'adtions to mat the layers on and then finished off edging that mats with promarkers .

Little spring bunny

As I'm trying to be good with keeping my craft room tidy , I have set myself a target to use images from my image box rather than always printing a image and thankfully doing quiet well on that front and also I'm lucky that I have a few friends who give me their old birthday , Xmas ect cards for me to use as new toppers . As I can't take credit for colouring the image I have used .

Well I best get on and tell you which blog and sponsor I'm blogging for
Sketch Saturday and the sketch for this week is

And the sponsor

So to make my card I have used

To make this card
I used some 1st edition papers from my stash , with some core'dations for the mattering and layering and a Promarker to edge everything
The topper is from a old Xmas card as I'm sure by know a lot of you will know it's one of my fave things to use on projects as love to recycle them .
Finally finished off with some bling hearts from WOC

To make things pop a bit more I used some cream core'dations and promaker round the edges of my mats

The metal bird is from WOC

Z is for Zero Embllishments

Well as it's dark and dull in Dorset thought it was a good idea to stay in and get some cards and blogging done . So for my 1st blog of today it's for The ABC Challenge who had the letter Z for this time and that means Zero embellishments which have to say tested me a bit as so used to adding a little something to a project .

Spring is in the air - I wish lol

I so wish Spring was here , like everyone in the Uk I'm fed up of this damp horrid weather and so feel for the ppl that have had their homes flooded , so come Mr weather get your act together and give us some sun shine , don't even mind if it's cold lol.

Ok well this looks like as near as I'm getting to spring by doing a spring card for Winter Wonderland , who have set the theme of spring so ie flowers , spring weather , romance .
They also have two sponsors this week who are

Kenny K Stamps and they will give the other winner 3 digis of the winners choice

So here is my effort
Papers - from my stash
Coredations - Crafters Companion
Topper is from a JS decoupage kit - but just used one layer as my hands are just not up to fussy cutting
Also used a PM to edge all the mats to make them pop a bit more and finished off with some bling hearts from WOC
