Back At Last!!! Simon Says Stamp + Daring Card Makers

At last I'm back with a card!!! This is the 1st card I've made in a couple of months, which is for hubby's birthday today, I have got us tickets to see We Will Rock You in Dec and made a huge chocolate roll which is full of chocolate mousse and cream - very yummy!
The stamp is from Penny Black and the papers are Anna Griffin. I have coloured the image with Copics. The card fits this weeks challenges from Simon Says Stamp and Daring Card Makers. Hopefully I'll be back with some more cards in the next week or 2, work depending.

CCT Design Team

I have decided to step down from the CCT DT as I am not making any cards at the moment, for some reason I just can't be bothered with crafting. Thanks to Caz and the other CCT girls, I have really enjoyed working with you all.
Hopefully I will be back soon!!

Cute Card Thursday - No Square Cards

Well my 11 days off have flown by and I have only made 1 card!! We had a lovely week and managed to sort the garden out but I had to go into hospital on Fri for a little op which means I haven't done much for the past few days. I did manage to make my card for this weeks Cute Card Thursday challenge which is to make anything but a square card.
I have used one of my new Hanglar + Stanglar stamps and some very old Anna Griffin paper. The image has been coloured with Distress Inks and I have added a few flowers.
Have a good weekend. I have decided to do some baking on Saturday night while hubby and boys are watching the footie!Supplies

Cute Card Thursday 'No DP'

This weeks challenge at CCT is to use no DP on your card. This is a tag I made a while ago and as I haven't had any crafting time for the past 2 weeks I thought I would use it for the challenge. The background has been created by stamping onto the tag with white acrylic paint and then after it is dry inking the tag with Distress Inks (Tim Holtz technique). I have stamped Prom Tilda + coloured her with Distress Inks.
Have a fab Thursday and Bank Holiday weekend. I finish work on Sat morning for 11 nights so hopefully I might get to make a few cards, although hubby and the kids are home as well so a few trips out are planned!!!
