Let the sneaks begin :-)

Yay... the sneak peaks start today for our new Wags 'n Whiskers release... this Friday!!!!! We have 8 beautiful Spring Time stamps designed by the talented Crissy Armstrong! They are perfect for getting yourself in the mood for some warmer weather, spring flowers, and Easter!

But that's not all!! We are so happy to share a secret we have been keeping for a while now!

We also have a new artist! She is totally new to the stamping world!! Her name is Cris de Lara. We have 5 fun and whimsical stamps designed by Cris for this release. You can find out more about her over at the Wags 'n Whiskers blog and also click the links to visit our designers for some fabulous eye candy!!!

A little about my project today... this gorgeous new image by Crissy is called Hey Chickie. This features my little 4 year old Danni. I had made a little something for Zoe which I will be sharing with you Friday so it was only right I made something for Danni too :-) I decorated a Kraft pillow box. I have had the papers some time but I think they are by Pebbles Inc. Danni has been coloured with Prismacolor pencils with sansodor to blend. Don't you just adore her sweet little chickie and found the little chickie button amongst my stash :-)

Don't forget that by helping us spread the word about our release you have the chance to win all 13 new release stamps!!! Find out more here.

High Hopes Challenge - Wired!

Our new challenge has just started over at the High Hopes blog and this my talented friend Karen is asking us to use Wire or Metal on our cards or projects. I found these fun wire embellishments in my stash and also added a metal jump ring to attach the sentiment.

The fun little guy on my card today is Bubble Bath Bradley from the new Dustin Pike collection. I coloured Bradley with Prismacolour pencils and added lots of star dust stickles. For a little more texture the 4mm Iridescent pearls looked great as bubbles. The paper was from a book of papers which I picked up ages ago from The Book People. To finish I have added some new 8mm flat back pearls in golden yellow.

Hope you will come and join us in our challenge and if you are looking to purchase High Hopes stamps I have a great selection over in my store. I ship worldwide too!

Have a great Sunday!

Hugs

Wags 'n Whiskers Challenge - Charming!

I am finally back with a card to share with you :-) Our new Wags 'n Whiskers Challenge has just started and this week I am your host. I am asking you to use metal somewhere on your card or project. This could be charms, spacer beads, head pins, brads or any metal embellishment.

I was a little upset that I didnt' have time to play along with Inge's challenge last week so made sure that today's card was also using the great colour combination Brown, blue and white!

The image on my card is my little bookworm daughter Zoe - A good book. I have coloured with my Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. The papers are from the DCWV Garden Party stack. This stack also contains some pretty pink and green designs as well as the yummy chocolate, cream and blue. I sell DCWV over in my store in handy try-me packs. The pretty circle is a Nellie Snellen Multi die. The gorgeous flower with metal centre and gem is from the Prima Homespun Elegance bright selection. They also are available in Vintage. I have also used 8mm flat back pearls in chocolate and white. The swirly metal embellishment was sent to me some time ago from my friend Kelly.

If you don't have any Wags 'n Whiskers, then it's time to go shopping!!!. Also if your looking to add a little metal to your stash ALL charms, spacers, head pins, chains and jump rings are currently 10% off until Sunday.

Card for little Daan

My dear friend Renata asked for my help and of course I didn't hesitate to say yes. I was so saddened hearing about little 4 year old Daan and it breaks my heart as my own little daughter Danni is also 4. Please read the below request from Renata and I hope you can bring a smile to his little face by creating a card for him. When I first read Renata's email I knew that I would love to send my little Alien scene I created earlier in the week.

Dear Blog Friends,

I know you all love to make cards so what's better than to do something you realy enjoy and at the same time make a little boy happy in the most difficult time of his young life? Daan, the son of my sisters friend, is 4 years old and has a brain tumor which is sadly enough incurable. More and more body functions fail such as his legs can't carry him anymore. At the moment he gets radiation because his parents and the doctors will make his life as easy as possible and ofcourse no one will loose hope! I think it is heartbreaking and I'm so sad that I can't do anything to help him! That's why I ask you girls to make him a funny card so he has something good to look forward to and I think it will help his parents and two little sisters (Sacha (6) and Anna (2))as well. I also want to ask you to keep him in you prayers or send a little positive energy and thoughts to him, because you never know! Do you want to join in this small gesture, please send an e-mail to creatiefonline@upcmail.nl so I can send you the address you can send the card to. I like to thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Love, Renata

I am taking a little break for a few days but don't forget to check out our new challenge over at the Wags 'n Whiskers blog where our wonderful designer Inge has a colour challenge for you. Also tomorrow there will be a new challenge over at the High Hopes blog.

Hope your having a great weekend!
Hugs,

A Spoon Full of Sugar & High Hopes Challenge

Our new challenge over at A Spoon Full of Sugar has just started and this week our talented DT member Sandra challenged us to freestyle.. so basically create anything you like! :-) After a busy blogging week and being short for time I was lucky this meant I could combine this challenge with our challenge over at the High Hopes blog :-) This week our fun guest Alex. is asking us to create a scene. I will be honest and say I was a little scared of this challenge as I don't tend to create many scenes. I was quite pleased with how my card came out so thank you Alex. for challenging me!!!

For my scene I have used High Hopes stamps Space Scape, Chuck and Quentin. These new designs by Dustin Pike are in stock now at Bunny Zoe's Crafts. The bright fun papers are from the Basic Grey paper Pad Lime Rickey. The buttons are from the Fiesta and Ice Storm collections. The star and sentiment is from a special set which will be available to purchase soon direct from High Hopes. I have added some flat back pearls to Quentin's antenna's. I had so much fun working with these images and creating my little scene!

Be sure to check out the fabulous samples from both teams at A Spoon Full of Sugar and High Hopes Challenge blog. As well as having fun entering our challenges you have the chance of winning a prize!!!

Have a great Tuesday!

Hugs,

Wags 'n Whiskers - Be Inspired!

It's time for a new challenge over at the Wags 'n Whiskers blog :-) This week our fabulous artist Crissy is hosting our challenge called... Be Inspired! Crissy is asking you to create a card or project using someones creation to inspire you!

I created my card today with inspiration from Christa - Love to Scrap. Here is her card that I cased!!! I am a HUGE fan of Christa's work and I just love all the layering on her cards. Christa's card have the prettiest details and beautiful colouring too! Thank you for inspiring me Christa!

The image on my card is called Bubble Fun and features my 4 year old daughter Danni with our sweet kitty Bella. I adore this image so much and Crissy did an awesome job with the design! The profile of this image is so much like my Danni! Danni and Bella have been coloured with Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. The gorgeous papers (love these colours!) are from the My Minds Paper Kit - Be Loved. The Hugs & Kisses sentiment is by Bildmalarna.

If you don't have any Wags 'n Whiskers, then it's time to get them in your hands!! Go shopping here.

I think this kitty on my card has to be my favourite character from the release. I coloured Scuba Kitty with Prismacolour pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. I also added some SU Crystal effects to his mask. This is the first time I have used this product and loved the effect! You can see the shine of his mask more clearly in my photo below. I also added a little stickles to the bubbles. The fabulous papers are again from the Crate Paper kit Orbit. You might remember these used on my earlier sneak peek card featuring Willy One Eye.

High Hopes - Sneak Peeks Day 3 :-)

My High Hopes sneak peak today has been created for our new challenge over at A Spoon Full of Sugar. This week I have chosen the topic and I would love to see lots of layering on your cards.

I am also sponsoring our challenge this week and one lucky player will win a personalised stamp of their choice by Scrapmagasinet. Our wonderful guest designer this week is Heather Huggins! Thank you for playing along with us this week Heather and we adore your beautiful card. Get Well Soon sweetie.... we are thinking of you!

The fun character used on my card today is called Sting and will be available to purchase tomorrow from Bunny Zoe's Crafts. Sting has been coloured with Prismacolor Pencils with Sansodor and paper stumps to blend. The papers are a mixture of Cosmo Cricket Early Bird and also the DCWV Green stack. I really wanted to use this ribbon slide which co-ordinated with the green stripe in the paper and also the SU brads so tried something a little different.

Us High Hopes girlies hope you are enjoying our sneak peeks... only one more sleep until our blog hop :-) .... and also tomorow is release day!!!! Yay!!!! Today these wonderful Diva's have samples to share with you on their blogs.

High Hopes - Sneaks Cont.... :-)

The sneak peeks continue today for the new High Hopes release this coming Wednesday!!! Today my card features Cherry Chip Chimp with sentiment Cherry on top! Is this little guy adorable or what! I am having so much fun colouring these new images by Artist Dustin Pike!

My sweet little Chimp is stamped in Memento and coloured with Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. I have added a little stickles to the cupcake sprinkles and cherry as well as a little to the flat black pearls. The gorgeous papers are from the MME Stack Laundry Line. This stack is shabby chic with antique and distressed prints. The colours from this collection are soft and muted and some of the paper have an intense scattering of glitter. I have rubbed all the edges down with my handy VersaMagic Jumbo Java chalk. Again I have added a scrap of Raffia Lace left over from an earlier project.

I'll be back tomorrow to share another sneak with you but please do hop on over to see the fabulous creations from my fellow Diva's who are also sneaking today!

The NEW Popcorn the Bear Romance Collection is now in stock!

Let the Sneak peaks commence!!!

I am so excited as today we can finally share our sneak peaks for the upcoming High Hopes release on Wednesday.... Yes, that's right... Wednesday 20th January!!!

You are in for a real treat and our new artist Dustin has done an awesome job! Well today over at the High Hopes blog for our new challenge this week you will see that the team have all used stamps from the new release:-) Wow, you will be blown away by their samples!

Our challenge topic this week has been chosen by the talented Jeanne who is asking us to use Spacey colours. Don't think just because you don't have the new images you can't play along! There are zillions of High Hopes stamps which would compliment Spacey colours.. green, blues and purples!!!

The fun image used on my card today is called Willy One Eye. I have coloured my one eyed friend with Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. I was quite heavy with the red to create a more vibrant colour and just tickled the darker parts to blend lightly. I also added a little stickles sparkle to his spots and the ground.

Isn't the paper fab! I got so excited when I see this Orbit paper kit by Crate Paper. These kits are bursting with quality heavy papers and fun diecuts and stickers. To finish my card I added some jute for some added texture, buttons from the Sherbet collection and NEW Iridescent 4mm Pearls.

All new High Hopes stamps will be available to purchase from Bunny Zoe's Crafts on Wednesday, 20th January!!!

Have a wonderful Sunday and hope we see lots of you playing a long this week! You will want to play as our prize is some stamps from the new release!

Hugs,
