Fairy Door Hanger



Morning.

Here is a little door hanger I have made for a little girls bedroom door. I used Stampin Up DP, just love these. They come in a pack of 12 inch papers and are so yummy and summery. I used stick on jewels from my local craft shop and ribbon which was a freebie from a  magazine.


I used Stampin Up punches for the flowers (boho), it's a triple punch to layer. I also did a lot of inking to make it stand out. The image is from Squiggle stamps. It's one of my own designs, she is called Miss Evie - Flowers. I coloured her in with Pro Markers, my favs. The plain MDF door hanger was purchased on Ebay.


Lots of fun making this. The door hangers are very versatile so you can do anything with it and also very reasonable priced. Thanks for coming by. :)

Squiggle Stamps - Masking

Evening all.

Hope you all had a great weekend. Here is another great challenge from Squiggle Stamps. This fortnight the theme is 'Masking'...Masculine theme with masking. Some fab masking done by the DT so why not have a nosy and join in.


For my DT creation I made a card, maybe for a goth/emo teenager. I used My Minds Eye DP, just totally in love with these. They are halloween papers but I think they are so versatile, you can use them for lots of other projects. 


The image I used is called Frankenstein Boy. I coloured him in with Pro Markers and used a little bit of my Sakura glitter pen to add some glitz. :) I struggled to mask this digi stamp so I went for paper piercing but this works as a mask as well, apparently.

The sentiment is from Stampin Up. The little skull charm is from my local craft shop. The stick on black pearls are from Habico. 

Lots of fun making this, thanks for coming by for a nosy.

Wall Plaque

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. Up here in the Highlands the weather is not very good, so got some extra time to craft. :)


I made a wall plaque. Bought a plain MDF plaque of Ebay and decorated it. I used an image from Squiggle Stamps. She is called Miss Ruby - Roses. You can get her for a special price of £0.99 until tuesday evening over at Squiggle. I coloured her in with Pro Markers with a little bit of extra sparkle, with my Sakura glitter pen.


The DP are from Stampin Up, swell as the sentiments. I also used Su punches for the flower embellishments. The pearl flourish is from Creative Impressions and the stick on pearls from Habico.

Thanks for popping by.

Mini Note Book

Afternoon.

Another scorcher of a day. Lovely. Here is a little mini note book I made today. I used my favourite paper brand Bo Bunny. All their DP are just to die for!! These had a bit of sparkle on them. Even better. :)



The image is from Squiggle Stamps (on special offer £0.99, last day today!!), she is called Squirrel Picnic from the range Lilliputs. I coloured her in with Pro Markers and added a bit of sparkle with my Sakura pen. The sentiment is from Stampin Up. I also added a bit of colour with Promarkers and sparkle.




The flowers are from Poundland. I bought them for kids craft about a year ago, and after an accidental rake in the kiddies box I found these, and the colours were matching, so hope they done notice I have nabbed a couple. :) The stick on gems are from the local craft shop.

Thanks for coming by and enjoy the sun.

Squiggle Stamps - Squiggle Sunday - Ribbons and Roses

Wohoo...

Challenges are up and running again over at Squiggle stamps, and finally I have nagged myself into the design team. :) There will be a challenge every fortnight on a sunday. Very exciting. You can win a £15 voucher in the Squiggle shop, and there is an extra treat for the top three!




This fortnight the theme is 'ribbons and roses'. I have made two little DT projects for this challenge.
Was so excited I couldn't help myself. :)


I decided to do a very girly princess door hanger for my first project. I have used Rose Impressions DP from The paper company studio. I used my my SU double punch for the bunting and the scalloped edge at the bottom, also my Cricut machine for the lettering on it (Stamped). I printed out the "my princess" on my Mac and used some bling from the local craft shop.



The roses are spirals I cut out and gathered up with a tiny knitting pin and glued. The images I have used are Castle and Princess Daisy. Ribbon is from the local craft shop again. The tiny butterflies I had in my stash, think it's freebies from buying die cut shapes from Ebay.

Dutch Dare - Shaped cards
Cute Card Thursday - A touch of sparkle
I love Promarkers - Anything goes


For my other project I decided to go mad with roses. I made a layered card using DP from My Minds Eye ( Miss Caroline by Jan Allyson) Absolutely love these spring coloured papers. Did a lot of inking and used an emery board ( cheaper than getting sanders from the craft shop) to distress the edges.


I used heaps of roses which I bought in the local craft shop. The ribbon is also from there as well as the hat pins. The pearls all came in one pack, they came from Habico. (Got to love that they are all colour cordinating!!) The sentiment is from SU. I also used punches from Su for the sentiment and the scalloped border. 


The image I used is called Miss Ruby Roses. It's one of my own designs which I have never used before but must say she was fun to colour in. And I thought since the challenge is ribbons and roses it would be appropriate to use her. I coloured her in with Pro Markers, my favs.


Thank you so much for popping by. We also have a brand new Squiggle Stamps FB page. Please have a nosy and like us. Hope to see you joining in with us for this challenge. 

Have a good sunday.

Little Picnic Tag

Evening. 

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I have so far had a busy one. Made 25 wedding invites for my friend today, all in a paper bag now with envelopes ready to be sent out. :)


I managed to squeeze a little colouring in this evening. I used an adorable image from Squiggle Stamps. It's called Squirrel Picnic, and is at the moment on special offer for £0.99 over at Squiggle. I coloured the image in with my favourite Pro Markers. Added a bit of sparkle with my Sakura pen.

I used Stampin Up paper, and also SU punches for the flowers and the scalloped edge at the bottom. The sentiment stamp is also from SU. Cut out a little bow to add to the stamp. Really love the dotty papers.



The pearls are from Habico. I also added some pins and a charm from the local craft shop. Layered this on white card stock, also from my local craft shop. Might have overdone it a bit with the pearls, but I just couldn't help myself. :)

And some news from Squiggle Stamps. Tomorrow challenges start up again. There will be a new exciting challenge every fortnight on a sunday. So exciting. Hope to see you all join in with us. :)

Thanks for coming by. 

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
