the layout for the card below..

this is my layout of the sketch before i tried to place it on a card.. and relised i had not done any measurements and made it 2 big..... can u tell i am newish to all this bloggin...lol... got so carried away...!!!!! the sketch is from sketch saturday...http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com/

here is a card with a story... it should make you giggle

hi everyone...

this should give you all a good little giggle...!!! i found a wonderful sketch challenge to do yesterday.. and i got a brilliant idea in my head of what i wanted to use and what stamp and colours i wanted to use... so off i went doing my layout...!!!!i stamped and coloured and cut and stuck and proceded to make what i think is a great layout... i was every so proud of it.... i stuck it on a 6by6 page and added a matchim purple behind it to match my nestie cut out... added my ribbon and embelishments... and i love it... then i went to stick it down.... me being me rushed off without checkin my measurements...so i had a lovely layout that was way to big to fit on a normal square card or even an a5 ... so i was gutted...!!! so i asked some friends on a forum i visit(craftycardscrappers) if they had any brill idea's.. and the one that kept poppin up was an a3 card or use 2 a4 peices of card and stick them 2gether..... so this is what i have done... but i have added some acertate in the middle and used dst to stick it all 2gether and used eyelets to help it stay in place and give decorative effect..!!!! so i am now a happy bunny and hopin i can still add my card to the sketch....lol

The last card of 2night was a sarah kay card...

now this is my fav of 2night... i have just gettin this stamp yesterday... and i am in love with it... they are brill images... and make any card look good...!!!! i had fun with this card... used markers to colour the card... simple mattin and layering with this card...just need to add sentiment when i come to use the card...

on a roll here is my other tilda card.. autumn colours...!!!

i have loads of fun doing this card... the sketch was from the book i bought from card stitching.co.uk.... its a great little book... i have jiggled the sketch a little to suit myself...!!!

i decided to do this card as one of the kids i look after loves doing leaf pics... and i think this tilda just lends herself to it....lol...!!! i coloured tilda with marker pens.. to give more depth to the colours...!!! i love how it has turned out. i may even enter it to a challenge...

Dudley bear christmas card

This is a dudley bear download from mazzie download shop... he is just so cute i could not resist him and a few more of his friends...!!!! http://www.myware.piczo.com/?cr=7&rfm=y

he is very easy to make up and print quality is fab...!!! he was a very fun card to make... but i do think he is lacking in a bit glitter... so off 2 add that now...lol..!!!! well it is a christmas card and you can never have enough glitter can u....!!!! and you also get the backing paper and insert with your download...!!!

Twin card for a boy and a girl

I have use Elzybells art stamps a baby in a basket for both sides of the card... i have used my nestie for the background i have placed each baby on.. and on the front of the card i have added a the same verse... i have used chalk on the verse to highlight the verse and to add colour to the plain card stock...

i have used distressed ink, water colour pencils and h2o's on the image... giving it added depth and sparkle.... the ribbon was from a local craft shop....i hope you enjoy viewing this card as much as i have enjoyed making it.

the paper i used on the inside is a freebie download.. and i used two babygrows to embelish.. added their names down each side... Teegyn and Alex....
