Sketch Saturday #203 with Simon Says Stamp!

Ooops! I'm the latest I've been posting my Sketch Saturday DT card....so sorry...as I said earlier, I'm just not with it at the moment...I have so much going on!

I did get some good news this morning though. Keiran got an offer of placement at the school I wanted him to get into! So that's one thing less to worry about! :)

So onto my card for this week's challenge at Sketch Saturday, and this time we are sponsored by 

How cool is that?!

So here is the sketch...

And my card...

I actually made this card for my friend to give to her God Daughter. The image is Luna Rocks from Pollycraft, and she is coloured with Promarkers. I then used paper from Pixel Scrapper and ribbon and a mini cd from my stash.

Yee Ha! Happy Birthday!!

Howdy y'all! 

I'm here with another commission card tonight...

This is for another of my regular customers, for her Mum's birthday. The image is the new Dottie 2 Step from Bugaboo, and for the first time ever, I have paper pieced her! Now I've seen Jen do it loads and never plucked up the courage to do it before, but now I'm really glad I did! It's so easy, and it makes it easier to match your backing papers too as you just use the same ones you've used to paper piece it! I shall definitely be using this technique again! :)

The papers, by the way, are all from Pixel Scrapper. I only used my Promarkers for her hair and skin.

I am entering this into Tuesday Morning Sketches #140 and that's all because I'm too tired to root around looking for more challenges tonight!Hope you all have a fab Easter with lots of crafting! I shall mostly be working!

April Showers at Crafting For All Seasons

Good afternoon!

I have scheduled this post as when it goes live I shall be helping out at a kid's craft day at our local church...I bet it'll be fun! :)

So it's time for another challenge at Crafting For All Seasons and this time the theme is

APRIL SHOWERS!

And we've already had some of those today! Not to mention the wind!!

We are sponsored by

Prize - 7 digis

and our very own Jani!

Jani has just started designing and selling digi images so do pop on over and take a look!

Anyway, here's my card...

I have used Deacon Rain from Bugaboo, and coloured him with Promarkers. The papers are Pixel Scrapper and My Mind's Eye, and it's finished with a couple of dewdrops and some glossy accents on the raindrops and puddle. I distressed the edges of the papers as I didn't want to matt and layer...I wanted a clean-ish look!

I shall pop back later to enter it into some challenges...

Bye for now! :)
