Hello again, I hope you are well, thanks for your visit.

Today at Alphabet Challenges we are starting all over again

with our A- Z of challenges. 

It may surprise you to know that 2020 is the 10th Anniversary

of Alphabet Challenges - it's first full year being 2010. 

For our letter A we have - Anything Goes

Please check out the blog for details and 

to see the inspiration from the DT.

For my card - the main image is a Polkadoodles

Background papers, card, layers, pearls all from my stash.

The flowers are from a stamp and die set free with a craft magazine.

Flora or Fauna

Hello again, thanks for your visit. 

Today we begin a new challenge at Cardz 4 Galz. 

Helen has chosen for #93 Flora or Fauna.

 Please pop over to the blog to see the DT's inspiration,

we also have a DT call.

I have just made a messy card for the Cardz 4 Guyz 

challenge blog, so carried on to make this one for the Galz.

The stamps are by Stamping Unicorn from Polkadoodles Stamps.

I love the Dotty Daisies.

The dripping stamp is by Sheena Douglass from 

Crafter's Companion. 

I'm hoping someone will like my messy card. 

Z is for Zesty Colours

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today we start 

a new challenge at Alphabet Challenges. 

We have once again reached the end of another

full alphabet, which means for the next two weeks we

are looking for Z for Zesty colours.

Please pop over for the few details and to see team A's

collecdtion of Zesty colours. 

I have a 7 x 5" card. A black mat card.

 For the design I used several Zesty Distress inks

which were blended on the card. I used an

ink spray for the more vibrant zesty orange.

The stamp is Grasses from Inkylicious. The 

sentiment by Unicorn stamps from Polkadoodles. 

Have fun with your creations.

Christmas Shopping

Over at Winter Wonderland they are looking for projects entitled ' Christmas Shopping' , a perfect opportunity to use my newest Christmas stamp, I tell myself every January, 'I don't NEED to  EVER buy another Christmas stamp!' Then along comes another stamp you simply MUST have, no matter how many you have, you NEED this one. From LOTV , during my visit to their 10th birthday celebration, Penguin Present somehow fell into my basket. Isn't he just adorable?

 ( Not as far as I planned, in my mission to make at least two Christmas cards a week, this being # 32)

Spots and Dots

This is my first entry to Polka Doodles, I do enjoy the bright cheerful cards as a contrast to my other styles of stamping and card making. The challenge this week is Spots and Dots, which is provided in the upper piece of card, both of the cards are from a lovely block called Hideaway, super colours. I stamped the LOTV fairy onto an oval die and used colours from the card, making her a very bright and sunny fairy. Flowers and leaves are from my stash. Thanks for looking and of course, you know I love to read your comments.
