CCT Something Borrowed

I can't believe its Thursday again already, the time is really flying by at the moment. I hope you all had a good Easter. The theme at CCT this week is Something Borrowed. I made a little tag for my son's birthday and 'borrowed' a bit of garden string for it!! The image is an old Greetings Farm one which I coloured with Copics and the papers are Basic Grey. I am slowly using up some of my old stash and I'm having to get out all my old stamps to use because there aren't many new stamps that I like at the moment, which in a way is good because I can save a few pennies!


Have a good week.

My Time To Craft 'Winter Pals'
Wow 2 posts in 2 days, I must be on a roll!! This is the card I have made for this weeks My Time To Craft challenge where the theme is Winter Pals. I love this stamp which I bought a couple of years ago but unfortunately I can't remember the manufacturer. I have coloured the image with Distress Inks and just added a few snowflakes and gems and a piece of lace. A very quick card as I need to get on with my Xmas cards and do a bit of tidying around the house!
Have a good Tuesday.Supplies

Cute Card Thursday + Magnolia Down Under
This weeks challenge at Cute Card Thursday is to have lots of glitter on your card and I have made my card following the sketch at Magnolia Down Under. I have used another of last year's Christmas Magnolia stamps, this one is Edwin Skiing and is one of my favourites. I have coloured the image with Distress Inks (again!!) and used some old Basic Grey papers. The label and snowflakes have been cut with Nesties and the Wizard and the swirl and border are EK Success punches. I have run the lighter green paper through the Cuttlebug with the script embossing folder and then sanded it a bit. The glitter is on the smallest snowflake and under Edwin's feet but it doesn't show up in the photo. I hope you'll be able to join in this weeks challenge as the DT cards are all gorgeous and we have a fab prize for one lucky winner.
Tilly didn't like the idea of going out yesterday, she got no further than a few steps from the back door, not that I blame her as it was so cold.Supplies

Sketch Saturday + Everybody Art Challenge
Well I'm on a roll with the challenges this week, it must be the distress inks!! This card uses the current sketch at Sketch Saturday and also fits the Everybody Art challenge which is distressing. I have used another of the older Magnolia Xmas images and papers from Basic Grey. I have stamped the Magnolia Silent Night background on the oval and then distressed it using Broken China and Antique Linen ink pads. Tilda has been coloured with Distress inks and the border is punched with an EK Success punch. The sentiment is from a Hero Arts clear set and I have added a flower and leaves cut with a Martha Stewart punch.
Have a good Wednesday. I am a bit worried because Tilly is going outside for the first time today as she had her stitches removed last night. So I will be lurking by the back door all day!!Supplies

Tilda and Friends 'Fall Back' Challenge
The theme for the last ever Tilda and Friends challenge is 'Fall Back'. I am really going to miss making my weekly ATC as they are so handy to have in for quick cards but the numbers of participants has been declining so we have decided to call it a day. I do hope you will be able to join us this week for 1 last time.
I have used Edwin with Broom for my ATC, he is one of my favourite Edwins and I decided to get the Distress Inks out and use them to colour - I think I need a bit more practice!
Have a great Wednesday!Supplies
