Flower Child Blog Hop

Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle Flower Child Blog hop ;)

If you dropped by here from Charlene's blog then you are right on track.

If not and you want to be in with a chance of winning 5 Great Prizes then start back at the beginning here at the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog ;)

Here are my 2 cards which represent 'Flower Child' to me.

I decided to make a swing card for the one above as I think the sweet little Brooke bundle of joy is perfect for this. The frame is hearts circles nestabilities and the stamp is coloured using copics.

I just love the sweet little sentiment too.

 My second card uses the sweet little booties which I  embossed with 'Princess Rose' embossing powder and versamark ink pad. The frame is Lacey doily squares nestabilities. .

Thank you so much stopping by and now your next stop is is Karin's blog. To be eligible for the prizes don't forget to leave a comment on each blog on the hop.

There are 2 'grand' prizes and 3 'random' prizes attached to 3 of the blogs.

Thank you once again

Just Clowning Around

Just look at the huge smile on this little guys face you just can't help but smile yourself :) I adore this super happy and fun set from Sparkle N Sprinkle called 'Clowns'. I believe this set is also on offer right now :)

I wanted to make this card as colourful and bright as possible. I made the little banners using the Pennants nestabilities dies out of patterned paper and stuck them to the ric rac.

The sentiment is also part of the set. I added some glitter called Laser Blue also from Sparkle N Sprinkle.

Happy Birthday Koala

Hello Friends,

Thank you for stopping by for a visit ;)

Today I'm sharing a card I made for Sparkle N Sprinkle and I have used Birthday Cassie.

You can also purchase the full set available here called Cassie's Adventures.

I coloured him with copics and then added some green flock for the grass which can also be purchased here.

The window was cut using Rectangle nesties and the Happy Birthday embossing was made using a cuttlebug embossing folder.

I have made 2 cards for the hop and they both use the same stamp set - Star Bunnies.

 For the above card I used Carrot Bunny which is so much fun :) I stamped 3 carrots out too and layered them using foam squares. The sentiment is computer generated and the base of the card was made using Grand scalloped circles.

My second card was made using Girl Bunny.

I used my oval nesties to cut an aperture in the base of my card and stamped my image inside the window. The butterflies and border is Easter border Nesties.

Love is in the Air

Hello and welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle Deco Divas - Love is in the Air Blog Hop :)

If you have arrived here from the fabulous Julie's blog then you are on the right track ;) However if you just happened to stop by my blog  and would like to participate and be eligible to win the four great prizes you will need to start at the beginning of the hop here at the  Sparkle N Sprinkle blog.

Here is my card for the hop and my card represents 'Love is in the Air' with the sweet little sailor boy and his obvious passion for the great outdoors, sailboats and the sea. I love this calming and relaxed feel this stamp creates.

I wanted to make my card look like an aged postcard and to create this I used my grand labels 23 nestabilites for the card shape and inked around the edge of the card, sentiment and image.

You can purchase this individual stamp here or the whole set here.

If you are participating in this fun fab hop please be sure to leave me a comment and on every other blog and answer the question at the last stop over at Sparkle n Sprinkle to be eligible to win the prize. Your next stop is the wonderful Karalee's blog.

Girls are Special

Hello Guys ;)

I wanted to share a card I made using this beautiful stamp from Sparkle N Sprinkle called 'Gathering Wildflowers' . You can also buy the set called 'Children- Sailor Boy' which you buy here.

I thought this stamp would look good coloured using my watercolour pencils so I dug out some watercolour paper.

I cut out the image using my nestabilities and attached it to my Lattice rectangle which I threaded satin ribbon through.

The sentiment is also part of the set and I sponged over it with distress ink.

The flower was made using my new spiral Blossom flower die and a cupcake case and then sprinkled with Autumn Medley glitter also from Sparkle N Sprinkle.

Thank you for stopping by

Hugs

For You

Hello ;)

Hope you all had a fab Weekend? It was my Mum's 50th Birthday yesterday and she had a wonderful time spending it with her nearest and dearest. We had a lovely meal made by my sister with muscles in white wine sauce for starters followed by coq au  vin and of course a huge slice of birthday cake to finish......yummy!  She had some beautiful gifts and we are now looking forward to her party ;) 

Anyway here is a card I have made using this cute little stamp from Sparkle N Sprinkle and you can buy the set here.

I adore this image she is just too cute. I coloured her with copics and then added glitter also available from Sparkle N Sprinkle here. The glitters are the best I've used and the colour variety is fabulous. I have used Florida Beach and Autumn Medley.

The card base was made using one of my creative book pages grand nestabilities. I love how it turned out. The sentiment is one from an old set which I cut out with nesties tag and sponged distress ink over whilst it was still in the nestie.

I will be entering this card into the following challenges:

Craft Challenges - Cute

Heart Song Inspirations - Gold/Glitter 

The pink Elephant - Embossing - Dry/Heat 

Thanks for visiting

Hope you have a G'day Mate

Today I'm excited to share my very 1st card I have made for the fabulous "Sparkle N Sprinkle'.

I'm sure you will agree with me that this little fella is so cute? I must admit I was a tad nervous at colouring him using my copics because of the fur effect. I just decided to go for it and ended up applying copic on some old terry toweling cloth and dabbing it lightly on the koala. I really like the effect and will try this again.

The stamp is part of a set called Casey's Adventures which you can buy here but you can also purchase individual stamps like Casey here too. The sentiment is also part of the set which I think is fab.
I'm entering this card into the following challenges:
Charisma Cardz - Cutesy
Dream Valley - Anything Goes
Craft Challenge - Games/Activities
Thanks for visiting.

I'm doing the Happy dance......
