had a play with my new Sugar Nellie stamp...

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas... i know i have... i didnt get any crafty bits for Christmas... but i did buy my mam some bits and ordered myself a stamp at the same time... its called hello little friend.. and its sooo cute... i friend asked me to make a card all pink and girly for her 6year old daughter off her brother... as her name isnt a common one she finds it hard to get things with her name on... I coloured the image with my promarkers.... added some peel offs from my stash... papers are from my stash 2... i love the way its turned out ....

Very long time no blogging.... A card for the boys

This is the card i have made for my Dads birthday which is today... the stamp is from lili of the valley... the papers are from bearly mine designs... i have used craft card to stamp the image on...i have used my promarkers to colour the image.. the punch is a one i have had for years.. and not sure who makes it.. but i love it... i also dug out my very old rub on metallic things.. they look like little eye shadows but waxy.. never used them much.. but they distressed the papers and image just the right amount... so i had fun using this.. i added 3 bits of candy at the bottom of the card.. with a Birthday peel off on the bottom of the easel card....

i am going to enter this into Dutch Dare card challenge... this is the 1st ever challenge i entered years ago.. so thought i would revisit them and see if i coud get myself blogging again...the challenge is for the boys.... http://dutchdare-cardchallenges.blogspot.com/

Bearly mine designs is anything goes... so this should fit the bill.. set is from The boyz zone ... http://bearlymine-challenges.blogspot.com/

lets hope this is the start of me gettin my butt into gear... and posting more on the blog....
