Hiya peeps

As always the theme is Anything Goes

and I chose to make something for my eldest

sisters birthday instead of a normal birthday card...

I looked through an old CraftWorks Cards publication

& found loads of projects & some fabulous papers near the

back of the "magazine".  After a few different reads of 

different areas I saw the hanging & thought that I can

do that!!
All the backings are made from card,ribbon & most of
 the buttons are from Crafty Ribbons

Im sorry there is only 2 photos at the moment. I will add
more in a couple of days. I hope you like what I have made.

DT project for the new challenge at Crafting Musketeers

Hiya peeps

Its time for a new challenge over at

Crafting Musketeers & the theme is "Boxes"

We are sponsored by the lovely

The Stamping Boutique

and out of 3 images that we were given (as a DT) I chose to use

the image "Gift Box" and printed it off in 2 dfferent sizes.

The larger one I coloured, in oranges & greens (both glittered).

The smaller image, inside the shutters is coloured in

pinks & gold glitter. The backing papers. pearl 

decorational strings & lace are all from my own stash.

I then placed a verse & short sentiment on the rear of the box card.

This is also my first time of themed props in my photos. This idea actually came from my daughter who recommended to use the wooden gift boxes that I bought off Facebook a couple of years ago. I then dressed them up with flat backed pearls, pearl strings, bows & charms. All very lovely if I say so myself. 

I am entering this in to the following challenges:

Allsorts Challenge, #383, the theme is "Re-run" taken inspiration from Tracy & Susan - Birthday

Artistic Inspirations Challenge, #164 AG

Brown Sugar Challenge #218, the theme is AG (wk) 

The Crafty Addicts - #25 AG

An entry for an artists challenge

A card made with a digi stamp especially for the

Gerda Steiner Design Stamps 25th Challenge

I used a digi stamp called Picnic Penguin

and he was a real joy to colour using my alcoholic

marker pens. I also used some of my favourite ribbon 

from Crafty Ribbons called Meadow ribbon 

from the Summer Festival collection

What the final result was a "Fun in the sun" sentiment 

complete with a sun cut from bright yellow card, a card butterfly (from my own stash) and a picnic peguin. I cut the

meadow ribbon down slightly round the feet of the penguin

& bottom of the basket. I then just stuck some letters under

the ribbon to form the sentiment "Fun In The Sun!!"

I am entering this card in to the following challenges:
