Creative Inspirations December Challenge!

     Good Morning!
I can't believer we're into December already, Christmas is literally just around the corner and I still feel like Summer has only just come to an end! This month we're embracing the season with a nice and easy challenge over at CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS of 'Christmas Time'!

I've used another Topper that I had stashed away in a drawer to create and quick and easy card, it's small but I think it's cute!

 INGREDIENTS -

Christmas Topper by Crafters Companion (I think? I've had it for so long lol)

LOTV Sentiment Stamp

Snowflake Die Cut

Doodlebug Sprinkles & Papermania Shimmer Dome Stickers

Pile of Penguins - Lili of the Valley DT

        Good Morning!
Don't worry, I haven't disappeared again after coming back with a flush of cards over the past week. I'm back with another card using a design by LOTV that features their super cute penguins! This design is called 'Pile of Penguins!' and is such a fun image, you can't really tell from the photo but I have added some stickles to the star in the design, simply because you can't have too much sparkle at Christmas time! 

INGREDIENTS -
LOTV 'Pile of Penguins' Digi Stamp & LOTV Sentiment
Maja Design Papers
Snowflake Die-cut, Berry & Assorted Flowers
Clear Dew Drops, Twinklets & Frantage Embossing Powder

'Tis the Season - Lili of the Valley DT

        Good Morning!
Today I'm sharing with you a Clean and Simple card that I made simply for fun, it's been a while since I've done that! The Wreath topper was actually part of a shop bought card that I received last year but I couldn't bring myself to throw it in the bin as I knew I could use it on something else in the future. I mounted it onto a piece of white card and then simply finished it off by adding a sentiment over the centre. Of course I couldn't leave the card without adding some sparkly embellishments!

Snowman & Friends - Lili of the Valley DT

        Good Morning!

Well as the saying goes, third times a charm! I can't remember the last time I had 3 creations to share with you in the space of a week, I've been lucky to get one a month recently. Here's hoping things don't go back to that! 

Today I'm sharing with you a card using one of the designs from the 2nd Christms release from LOTV this year. This design is called 'Snowman & Friends!' I'm always a sucker for anything that includes a Snowman, when I was a child I was obsessed with the short film 'The Snowman' (admittedly I still am) so maybe this is why I'm so fond of them. Anyway I'l stop waffling, here is today's card.

INGREDIENTS -

LOTV 'Snowman & Friends' Digi Stamp & LOTV Sentiment

Creative Inspirations November Challenge!

    Good Morning!
Most of you may have noticed that I haven't been crafting much this year, I haven't really been in the right head space for it. However, things are starting to feel a bit better and yesterday I found the motivation to sit and craft for the first time in ages. Luckily it coincided with the start of a brand new challenge over at CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS which I've also changed back to monthly challenges. 

The new challenge is called 'Wonderful Winter / Feeling Festive' so you have the choice of either making something Christmassy or if you're not feeling it quite just yet then you make something Wintery instead! This month we are joined by the sponsor All Dressed Up and I've used one of their images on my card today. 

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges -

PBSC October Challenge

  Good Morning!

Apologies for the lack of cards this year, I do keep trying to make some but things just seem to get in the way. I managed to make a card for this month's PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE and I'm sure you'll also be glad to see that it's in my usual style, not clean and simple! 
This month's challenge is 'Anything Goes or Colour Inspiration!' 

I've made a Halloween card using the colours Black and Orange from the inspiration board. Halloween is actually one of my favourite occasions to design for, it's just a shame we don't celebrate it as much in the UK!

INGREDIENTS -

Penny Black 'Witchy Mouse' Wooden Stamp

Sentiment by Stamping Bella

Bo Bunny Papers
