You know what they say about checking first.........!

Some of us never learn do we? 

Before :-

After. Spot the difference?

Yes you guessed I stuck it on upside down. Never learn do I? The last time my card could have opened from the left but this one was completely upside down. So nothing else to do but convert my card to an easel  card. No wonder it sometimes takes ages to make a card. I had to cut out another snowflake, well after I figured out which die I had used in the first place since I found the first one in a tub of snowflakes I'd cut out ready to use.

I used :-

Image :- Penny Black.

Sentiment and candi :- Craftwork Cards.

Colouring :- Promarkers.

Pearls :- Hobby House.

DP :- K&Co.
Corners :- Whimsy.

Snowflakes :- Marianne Designs.

Glamour Dust.

Challenges :-

Penny Black :-Cute Christmas.
Penny Black and More at Allsorts :- Any Die Will Do.
Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge :- For a man or boy.
Pink Elephant :- Punches/dies.
Christmas Challenges with sketches :- Sketch plus add stitching.
Cards for Men :- Anything Goes.
Crafty Cardmakers :- More than one punch &/or diecut. Snowflake die, Whimsy corner die, nesties, reverse corner punch.
Stampin' for the Weekend :- All stitched up.

Thanks for looking and I'd best check up the last of this weeks entries at Totally Gorjuss since I've been out two nights in a row.

See you tomorrow with my latest DT card.

Totally Gorjuss 37 - Sketch.

Hope you have a lovely weekend girls. The weather forecast for us up here in Scotland is not so good. On the bright side it's not so bad for us over in the East as it is for the West so fingers crossed.

Sugar Bowl 32.

Good evening everyone. I've just made this card for the Sugar Bowl challenge. I'm a bit last minute with it but not as late as I have been in the past lol! As I'm sure I've said before I don't know why I always end up at the last minute since there are two weeks to enter.

This week we can use whatever sketch we fancy from previous challenges so I've chosen to use the sketch from challenge 20.

I've used :-

DP :- K&Co.

Colouring :- Promarkers.

Flowers and flat back pearls :- Prima.

Sentiment :- Craftwork Cards.

I'm off to check out how much commenting I need to do to catch up with Just Cute Bears and Totally Gorjuss. I was trying to catch up last night after being away for 3 days without the internet but my internet connection was being very awkward. One minute I could do something the next it was acting up so I had to give up in disgust. Patience is not a strong point lol!!

Hope to see you tomorrow with something else. It's my day off and I'm always optimistic but somehow it never works out as planned.

Totally Gorjuss 23 - Hearts.

Good morning everyone and it's time for another challenge from Totally Gorjuss. This week we'd like to see some hearts on your projects. You could use heart diecuts, punches, brads , DP....the choice is yours. As usual we will have a prize for you. We'd like it if you have a direct link to your post not just to your blog as that makes it easier to find your project. Also if you have word verification on we'd really appreciate it if you turned it off as it makes our job much easier and quicker if it is not on. If you're worried about spam you could always turn on comment moderation instead.

Image :- Magnolia.

DP :- K&Co.

Colouring :- Promarkers and Sakura clear glitter gel pen.

Flowers :- Prima and MS punch.

Heart nesties.

If you have time I'd love to hear what you think about my DT card. I'm also going to enter some challenges with this card :-

Creative Inspirations Wednesday challenge :- Sketch.

Totally Papercrafts :- Pink and green.

Cute Card Thursday :- Dimension.

I had this card all ready to put on the image when I took another look at the sketch and realised I had made a mistake with the layout. I knew that if I tried to fix it I would only end up ripping it all.....my double-sided is very, very sticky!! So I had to start again. On the bright side I have a card prepared that only needs an image, sentiment and some finishing touches. Trust me lol.

I'm going to a crop after work today so it will be after 4pm before I know if Mr Blogger has posted this successfully.

Looking forward to checking out your entries this week. If you have time please check out my talented teamie's blogs to see their gorgeous cards.

She's so pretty!

Good afternoon everyone and what a miserable one it is too. It's been a horrible day here....misty, wet....just nasty. But never mind I've spent time doing what I like best...crafting....at least I have this afternoon. This morning I checked out my favourite blogs and caught up with my DT commenting. I meant to make a start on my DT cards too. Well I've stamped out an image for one of them!

But I really wanted to do one for the Just Magnolia challenge as I love easel cards. I meant to make one that would fit some spring challenges but now that it's finished I'm not sure that it's spring-like at all!

I used the lovely sketch from the Totally Papercrafts challenge and the colours from the Sophisticat challenge which are mint, lilac and one other colour plus flowers. My other colour is pink.

There are a couple of Spring challenges that I'd like to enter too :-
Allsorts and the Secret Crafter challenge. I hope this card is ok for these 2 challenges!


This second picture doesn't really add anything but I thought you might like to see the rain on my conservatory window. The only one sitting in there today is my Labrador. She has taken over a chair....which of course no-one else wants to sit on now lol!!


Oops forgot to tell you what I used to make this card!

Image :- Magnolia.

DP :- K&Co.

Colouring :- Promarkers.

Sentiment and card candy :- Craftwork Cards.

Flowers :- Wild Orchid Crafts.

I also used Stickles, Sakura clear gel pen and clear glitter gel pen and ribbon from stash.

I'm off to feed the dogs now and take them for a walk before tea. Hopefully I'll be back later with another card.

Just Cute Bears#7 "for Mum"

Well for the second time this weekend I am relying on Mr Blogger to be a good boy and publish this post at 9am this morning! By the time this is posted I will be well on my way to the SECC in Galsgow to the craft show. My friend and I have been looking forward to this since the last show in October. At that time my daughter's baby was due any time! In reality he was born on the 9th of November, 2 weeks late and now he is almost 17 weeks and getting really big.

But about this card! It is for challenge no. 7 over at Just Cute Bears where the challenge this week is something for Mum. I've used some more K&Co DP....love the colours in this pad. The sweet image is "The bear" from Hobby Art and he has been coloured with Promarkers. I used some lovely flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and I've glittered them and the butterfly with a Sakura clear glitter gel pen. The flowers in the image are topped with a Sakura clear gel pen. I used a MS punch to cut out some leaves. I finished off with some glittery jewels and glittery ribbon. The sentiment is from Craftwork Cards.

Hope you like and I'll try to have a look at your entries later today if I'm not too shattered. In reality I'll probably have a look around tomorrow. If you pop over to the challenge blog at Just Cute Bears you can see what my talented teamies have made for your inspiration this week.

And of course you probably want to know what the prize is this week. Well again we are sponsored by the incredibly generous people at Cuddly Buddly. We are very lucky to have such a generous sponsor and are very grateful to them. I can tell you that they have lots more than just the lovely stamps we have been lucky enough to give to our winner every week. You can also buy digi downloads. I can really recommend their papers, they are just gorgeous and you get lots of different designs in every set. You can also buy ribbons, punches, dies.........etc. But don't just take my word for it, pop over and see for yourselves.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Totally Gorjuss 20 Sketch.

Hello everyone and if Mr Blogger is being nice today he will have posted this while I have to go to work!

For our challenge this week at Totally Gorjuss Net has given us a lovely sketch to follow. Hope I've done it justice Net! I've blinged it up a bit so I could also enter it in some challenges.

I coloured Miss Bumblebee with Promarkers and paper-pieced her dress. Then I covered her wings with a Sakura clear glitter gel pen and added a heart-shaped jewel to her hair. My DP is K&Co. I got the lovely lace from Quixotic Paperie and again I've used some gorgeous roses from Wild Orchid Crafts and I cut out some leaves with a MS punch. I finished off with some heart-shaped brads, ribbon, button and pearls. The string in the button is coloured with Promarker to match.

I hope you like. If you can find time to go over to the challenge blog at Just Cute Bears you will be able to see what my talented teamies have made this week. Tell us what you think we all like to read what you have to say about the challenge and our own cards. It's always encouraging to see how many of you enter our challenge every week and we love to see how you interpret our challenge. I've enjoyed seeing all your cards "for Mum" this week.

Totally Gorjuss 19 Mum.

Good morning everyone, and if Mr Blogger has been behaving this will be posted on Saturday morning. This week at Totally Gorjuss our theme is "Mum." As usual we are sponsored so there is a nice prize for you. This week it is some sparkly stuff from Meyer Imports.

This week I have coloured this beautiful Tilda with Promarkers. I think this might be the first time I haven't used a Gorjuss Girl for the Totally Gorjuss challenge lol! She's one of my favourite new Tildas and I think I might use her quite often. I've used Tulip Yellow and Baby pink promarker to fit the Passion for Promarkers challenge and I've also added some faux stitching. The gorgeous papers are from K & Co. These are some of my favourite papers, they are lovely colours and lots of them are glittered too. I used Distress Inks in Tattered Rose and Mustard Seed on all my edges, glittered Tildas dress and added these lovely pink pearls from Prima to fit the Spoon Full of Sugar challenge. I embossed some of my yellow paper with the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder and this fits the Sophisticat challenge. Since the theme of the TG challenge this week is "Mum" it will also fit the Paperplay challenge. Oops nearly forgot to say that I followed the great sketch that Dawny P did for Papertake Weekly.


Hope you like! I'd really like to hear what you think. It really helps to know what other people think. So many of you entered our challenge last week that I was really struggling to get around all your blogs. If I didn't manage to leave a comment on your blog I'm really sorry and I'll try to do better next week. Not sure if I'll manage though as I have a family funeral next Thursday and it is over 3 hours drive away from us so I'll lose a whole day. Aunt Kate was the last of my late Father -in-law's sisters and the last of the family. She would have been 89 on Sunday coming so she's had a long, long life.

Anyway all that remains to say is have a nice weekend everyone and I'll be back tomorrow with my DT card for Just Cute Bears. I suppose I might manage back later to show you what I've done at the crop....if I manage to achieve much!!

Just Cute Bears #4 Jane's Sketch.

Good morning everyone. It's week 4 at Just Cute Bears and this week we have a great sketch from the very talented Jane. I loved working with this sketch, it was really easy to use and you can always add extra bits an pieces if you want to jazz it up. And of course you can turn it round to suit yourself, as long as we can still see the basic sketch.

We are sponsored again this week by Kim at Cuddly Buddly. You really must check out Kim's online shop, I love her own stamps and papers but she also has lots of other goodies.



This is the prize, isn't it gorgeous?

I hope you can join us again this week, I've really enjoyed visiting your blogs and seeing your lovely creations. As usual the closing time for this challenge is Saturday 20th February at 6pm (GMT).

For this card I've used the lovely Annie's Heart stamp from Cuddly Buddly and I coloured it with Promarkers. I also edged the flowers, the image and the sentiment with Promarker and added some Spica glitter gel pen to the middle of her bow. The lovely DP is from K&Co, the flowers are from Hero Arts and I finished with some brads and jewels from my stash.

Kat xx

Big Flower!

Good evening everyone, I'm a bit late in the evening with this one but I wanted to enter the Creative Inspirations Wednesday challenge which is for a project using pink and cream.

I'm not sure why I added another photo because I think you can probably see the layering in the first photo lol! In real life the card is not as pale as it looks here and the buttons match the DP from K&Co and the flower which is Stackies from Polka Doodles

I distressed the edges of the papers and also added Distress Ink in tattered rose. You might be able to see that I've added some tattered rose to the flower layers and the sentiment as well.

This card should some other challenges too :-

Truly Scrumptious :- Sketch and buttons and bows.

Allsorts :- Distressed plus buttons and a bow.

Creatalicious challenge :- No stamped images.

I quite like this card! I love the DP and I think the flower worked quite well but you can always tell me if it is rubbish. constructive criticism is alway welcome. Wouldn't do if I thought all my work was wonderful. I'm more likely to think my cards are not very good actually. But probably a lot of us are guilty of that, aren't we?

I'm off to post this and enter the challenges and finish off my Tesco order.

Kat xx

Fairy Wings.

Here I am again girls. I can't believe that this is my third post today. I think I'm on a roll lol!! I don't usually do fairies but I decided to make an exception with this little cutie. I just decided on the spur of the moment that I would try to enter a few challenges after not doing much last week.

Colouring:- Promarkers, Sakura clear glitter gel pen.

DP:- K&Co

Flower:- Craftwork Cards coloured with Promarker.

Ribbon, flat back jewels and stickles.

I don't think it looks like it here but the flowers in the image, large flower, jewels and backing card are all very similar in colour in real life.

The challenges are :-

Pollycraft :- Wings.

Quixotic :- Fairies.

Mojo Monday :- Sketch.

Craftwork Cards :- Flowers.

Crafty Creations :- Wings.

Stamping Fantasies :- Moving - for the bloghop for Sir Stampalot moving to a bigger shop.

Thanks for pointing this out Clare, I hadn't thought of that but obviously fairies have wings and fly!

I think that's it and I'm going to try to do a bit of catching up now. Maybe I'll be back tomorrow if I can get anything done....it's a full day of work and I've got a couple of blog hops I want to finish.

I Love "The Bear."

I've made this card for the DT call for a new challenge blog - Just Cute Bears. I don't think I will have much chance of joining the DT but hey there's nothing to lose. I love bears and this image from Hobby Art. I have lots of these stamps and they are great because you can use them for all sorts of occasions and of course everyone loves bears. I also have bears from Penny Black and Forever Friends and probably some others too. So as you can imagine it would be no hardship to make cards with bears lol!

I coloured the image with Promarkers. I had this card made yesterday but missed the chance to take a photo in daylight! I'm a bit disappointed with how the colours turned out. In reality the pink flowers are more like the colour of pink in the DP. The card candy is a stronger shade but still in the same family of pink as is the jewel brad.

I used :-

DP - K&Co, MME and the dark grey mats are DCWV latte.

Colouring - Promarkers

Card candy and sentiment - Craftwork Cards.

Nesties.

Apart from the Just Cute Bears DT call I am also entering:-

Cute Card Thursday :- Pink and grey.

Paperplay :- Furry friends.

Creative Inspirations Wednesday challenge :- New product - the bear stamp.

Charisma Cardz challenge :- Anything new -the bear stamp.

Crafty Cardmakers :-New - bear stamp.

What an idiot I forgot that I made the card using the sketch from Papertake Weekly. I love this sketch it was really easy to use. Papertake Weekly also have a DT call for a guest DT spot.

Keep your fingers crossed for me girls. I'm not that optimistic really because there are so many talented crafters and I'm sure lots of people will have answered this DT call. But nothing ventured and all that!!

I need to go and make some sympathy cards and at the other end of the spectrum finish off 2 baby cards for my friends and their son and his wife.

See you later. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend. It is lovely and sunny here today and not even cold - after the frost lifted. What a change after the last few weeks. But....and there's always a but isn't there?....there is still snow lying here and there. Or as my mum used to say lying waiting for more. She alway was an optimist!!

Just Magnolia 39.

I don't think this is exactly my finest hour. I decided to try the Just Magnolia challenge which is paper pleating. I followed the tutorial which was very clear but maybe it would have been better if I had practised instead of just jumping straight in. I have used red mainly which fits the Daring Cardmakers challenge. I followed the sketch from Stamp Something which I think goes well with the image. I think the card is "girly" enough for the Cupcake challenge and it is a birthday card which fits the Pink Elephant challenge.


I used Promarkers to colour the image, edge the image, sentiment and flowers and colour the card candy to match. The sentiment and card candy is from Craftwork Cards and the flowers are Hero Arts. The DP is DCWV, K& Co and the spotty piece is anonymous.

As I said probably not my best card and certainly not a good photo. I have just never got out of the bit all day. My husband had the day off today as his boss died of a massive brain haemorrhage yesterday and everyone was given the day off. He was the sort of boss who knew everyone who worked for him - and there were a lot of them. I think what bothers a lot of them was that he was a similar age to a lot of them! Since the roads around us are a bit better, still quite thick ice and a lot of water but an improvement, I went to buy a present for a friend's granddaughter and some more double sided tape! But I seemed to spend a lot of time just faffing about catching up on blogs before I thought maybe I could do a couple of Friday challenges. Tomorrow I need to shift myself and get my DT card done for Totally Gorjuss.

See you tomorrow, I should try to comment on some of the entries for the TG challenge now and maybe have a nice cup of coffee at the same time.

Mojo Monday 119.

This is my second post today. Please scroll down if you want to see the one with the card for lots of challenges! I just quickly made this card tonight for the Mojo Monday challenge. I'm never sure when it ends as I get confused with all the different times, I'm not sure how EST relates to GMT!

I used some lovely DP from K&Co. It has lovely muted colours and I thought the roses matched the sentiment! I'm not sure if the two papers together make it a bit busy? The sentiment is one I found in a drawer and there is no name on it. I used nesties as usual, the flower is from my stash and the card candy is from Craftwork Cards.

It's just a simple little card but I thought it might be a useful one to have in my box. That is if I had a box of cards instead of just a messy pile. I definitely need more storage. But then again it would probably help if I got rid of some of the stuff that I will never use.

Best go now, one of us has to go to work tomorrow and oh joy it isn't me! In spite of the fact that tomorrow is a Scottish Bank Holiday the Post Office would like us to be the same as the rest of the network. Not sure why as we never have been before at this time of year. But since I worked extra hours in Christmas week my colleague is doing my day tomorrow. My daughter has a day off too which is probably not what either of us would want. I couldn't watch TV this afternoon because she doesn't like anything I want to watch and vice versa.

Looking forward to another day crafting tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get more done than I did today lol! Keep warm girls and see you tomorrow.

Sugar Bowl 23

Here I am girls at the last moment again!! This one is for the Sugar Bowl challenge. I've only had 2 weeks to get this done so there is really no excuse!

I coloured this lovely Gorjuss Girl, available from Funky Kits, with Promarkers. I made the card following the lovely sketch from Judy using K & Co sparkly sweet DP. The flowers are Prima and the lovely velvet ric rac, brads and jewels are from my stash.

I'm off to post this now, enter the challenge and go to bed - late as usual LOL!!

See you tomorrow...my day off, fantastic!!

Kat xx

I just realised that I forgot that this would fit the last challenge for Paper Blooms. I hope they have only stopped for a break and come back soon.
It also fits the Stamp Something challenge which is also "Thank You".

Sketch Saturday DT Call.

I can't believe I was outside at 7.45 this morning taking photos of cards. Just shows you how blogging and challenges get a hold of you!!

Sketch Saturday are having a DT call which ends tonight at 8pm. I haven't posted about it before because I wasn't going to try for it. But last night in the middle of making another card I suddenly decided that I would!! How's that for daft? I ran the risk of having neither of them made in time. But somehow the Sketch Saturday one came together and surprise, surprise so did the other one. It meant I was a bit late doing my ironing (well some of it!). But hey it's only ironing.

This is a great sketch from Sketch Saturday. At first I thought it looked a bit complicated but like most sketches it is fine as long as you take your time and think before you stick lol! I watercoloured this lovely image from Sugar Nellies. I have only just got it and I think it suits these papers and vice versa. The papers are a favourite of mine - wild raspberry from K & Co. I added some ribbon from my stash and some paper lace but apart from that it is a very simple card. Well ok it's got lots of layering. I think with these papers you don't need a lot of embellishments.
I think that's about all I need to say about it. Except please wish me luck girls. I would love to have the chance to be on a DT. Not sure if I have enough talent though but nothing to lose by having a shot!!

See you all later as I have another card to post but not enough time as I need to leave for work in about 15 mins.

Sketch and Stash 18 and more.

If you are guessing that I haven't done my ironing yet you would be right lol! I might be too late for the Sketch and Stash 18 challenge but it fits other challenges too and I like the sketch. It was really easy to use. Sorry about the dodgy photo, this time of night is not the best to take a photo. I've discovered that if I take a photo sort of from above it is almost viewable but I will replace it with a better one tomorrow! I watercoloured this sweet Penny Black image. My DP is wild raspberry from K & Co. It is neglected not because I don't like it but because I do!! I'm sure you all understand this. The paler DP has hearts on it which might not be obvious in this photo. Do you like my heart brads - I think they are really sweet. I used the lovely Martha Stewart heart punch for even more hearts. The flowers and jewels are from my stash and I inked round the DPs with Vivid ink pads. Monday morning now and I've replaced the original photo with a slightly better one. You might well wonder how bad the first one was if this one is better!

Challenges for this card:-

Sketch and Stash 18:- neglected DPs and heart brads.
Penny Black Saturday Challenge:- Hearts desire - DP, heart brads and heart punch.
Secret Crafter:- Hearts and Flowers.

This time I really need to do my ironing!! In spite of the fact that I have a day off tomorrow I will be out two evenings this coming week and probably going to my friend's house again on Wednesday afternoon to get some cards done for our sale of work. So I need to be able to do some crafting tomorrow.

Kat xx

Had a busy day!

This is the card I have been making all day!!! I decided I would try doing the Just Magnolia Too challenge which is 3d. I have done traditional decoupage often enough but not with my own stamped image - until today. Thanks to Debby Yates of a Scrap Journey for a brilliant tutorial. I have also been brave and done some stitching with my new Janome mini sewing machine which I found on ebay for £19.99. (Brand new and came from a sewing machine shop so if you want details just let me know.) I also used my Promarkers for colouring - sometimes I chicken out and watercolour lol. I used some of my favourite K & Co papers, wild raspberry.I think you can almost see that Spring Tilda has been 3d'd but I have added another pic to show it a bit better. I found some plain card which is just the right shade for the DP. The papers have also been inked round the edges with a Brilliance dewdrop ink pad. I found some of my cross stitch thread just the right colour to tie through the buttons! Buttons, flowers and ribbon from my stash. I'm hoping that this card does for several challenges - after I've spent most of the day on it!!

Friday Sketchers:- the lovely sketch.

Just Magnolia Too:- the lovely Tilda image and 3d.

Papertake Weekly:- any challenge from first 99 - Favourite things -K & Co DP.

Pollycraft Challenge:- Favourite things - K & Co DP.

ABC Challenge :- B for buttons .

Sorry about the card below!!! I made it using the sketch from day 1 of the Mojo Monday week 100. I think the only thing you could say about it is that it is quite cheery. The papers are some I found in a drawer and the sentiment is from Papermania.

I thought I heard the postie about 2 hours or more ago but I haven't been to check cos I'm waiting for the Whiff of Joy Fall set. Ok I gave in - it's here and it's gorgeous. But I can't do anything with it yet cos I'm going to a friend's house tonight to craft.
I have been so wrapped up in this 3d card that I nearly managed to cremate the lamb I was cooking to make curry for tea. I only just caught it in time. I would have been popular if it had been ruined.

Now Id best post this and enter the challenges as the dogs will want their tea and a walk soon.

Let me know what you think - good or bad, comments are always welcome and I love to find new blogs to visit. I follow quite a lot of blogs but you always find someone new as you hop around.

Looking forward to the weekend.

Sketch Saturday Challenge.

I made this quick card this morning for the Sketch Saturday challenge. Isn't it a great sketch? I watercoloured one of my favourite Gorjuss Girl images from Sugar Nellies. The gorgeous DP is wild raspberry from K & Co. The oval is cut with my oval nestie and edged with blossom Promarker as is the sentiment. The ribbon and buttons are from my stash. I'm going to try to do a card for the Penny Black Saturday challenge. But I'm probably too late now!

Thanks for looking and have a nice weekend.
