ABC Challenge - R is for Ribbon

Wow, I'm pushing the boat out this week, 2 challenges in 2 days. This one is for the ABC Challenge - R is for Ribbon. I do have quite a few Birthdays coming up and I do not buy cards. So, only one thing for it, I need to get busy again. This is for my Niece's Birthday.( Shelly in Blackpool ) I love these House Mouse stamps, so cute. I made my own little embellishment with shrink plastic and glazed the eyes.

List of items used

* House Mouse stamp
* Prisma pencils
* Cuddly Buddly greeting stamp
* Fiskars Border punch
* Prima silk flowers
* Sweet shoppe papers
* Shrink plastic
* Brads, pearly stems from stash

ABC Challenge - E is for Embellishment

Well I spotted a new challenge whilst perusing Alison's blog. ABC Challenge, so I thought I would have a go this week and as I've never used a Sarah Kay stamp before I thought I would combine the two. I like the idea of these Challenges, A is for, B is for etc. Wonderful idea whoever thought of it. Here's my list of items I used.

* Sarah Kay stamp
* Sizzix frame
* Papers by Vicki
* Autumn leaves sentiment
* Prima flower
* Dovecraft brad
* Gems, Eyelets, Silver chain, Rafia Ribbon from my stash

Thanks Alison, picked up on your list idea also, makes things look neater.
( I like order )

A Spoon full of Sugar - Challenge 10

This weeks theme over at A spoon full of sugar is Animal Magic, you have to use an Animal somewhere on your design. I thought this Hanglar image was perfect and I gave her a grey cat because that's what colour my cat is. She was coloured with Prisma pencils, the papers are Kay Miller. Sentiments are Autumn leaves, I added buttons, Prima flowers and some childrens beads. Ooh and a bit of embroidery thread. Ooh ooh I also did a bit of stitching with the same thread.

Distressed Tilda Challenge 28

I actually found this one quite difficult, I can't think of Tilda as anything but girlie, all pink and purple. Or Summery, all reds, oranges and greens. So I had to try and tone her down, I used some papers which are a free download from an amazing blog site which is dedicated to free downloadable scrapbook papers and layouts. Vicki is an amazingly talented lady that doesn't mind sharing - but no commercial use please - so thank you Vicki, I'm so glad I found your site. Tilda was paper pieced, for her face and hair I used Prismas. Added some bling from my sis, the flourish and sentiment stamps are from Autumn leaves and the with love stamp is part of a set from Cuddly Buddly. The flowers are Prima with a dovecraft brad in the middle.
