Tom and Jerry ;-)

You remember my farm animal card I made a couple of weeks ago? Well this cute stamp and the sentiment was also in the fabulous McSplendid Farm set by The Greeting Farm. Silly Monkey Crafts have a great range of these stamps including the very cute Anya and Ian. The bright paper is by Cherry Arte and is called Bold Spots. While colouring this image I couldn't help but think of Tom and Jerry hence the colours I have chosen to colour them ;-) For more details of the products used please see below.


I would like to thank sweet Jodi for the above award which she awarded me yesterday.

Before I go I just wanted to let you know that this month my Pink Cat DT buddy Vicki is our hostess for the DT challenge on Paper Craft Planet. I hope you will play along!!

Ee-eye, ee-eye oh! - ISMAKI 09/005 - Isa

They have a fabulous sketch over at Ismaki this week which has been designed by Isa. As soon as I saw this sketch I knew it was just perfect for what I had in mind. These cute characters are by The Greeting Farm "McSplendid Farm" set which is available to buy from Silly Monkey Crafts. This set is packed with stamps and sentiments and there are still two characters I haven't used. I added the text using Studio G Alphabet stamps. The fun paper is Basic Grey Lollipop Shoppe and I just love the vibrant colours - so me!. I found the curly wurly buttons in my stash and they reminded me of the piggies tail. I was a good girl ;-) and as well as following the sketch added in the optional heart!

Hugs

A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge - Oh Baby!

Over at a A Spoon Full of Sugar this week we are asking you to make a Baby card. Now we understand this is something we don't all need to make so maybe you could make a card for a Mum to be, new Mum or Pre-schooler.


We have the above fabulous prize this week which has very kindly been donated by Lori from Scrappopotomus.

I have gone with the Pre-schooler option and made the above card for my niece who will be 4 in March. I have been dying to ink this new stamp which I got for Christmas. Isn't she gorgeous and is called Mermaid Anya. This stamp is from The Greeting Farm. I have also used one of my favourite HH sentiments. She has been coloured with a mixture of Copic sketch markers and Prismacolor pencils. I have paper pieced her outfit with the dp used on my card. I added a little stickles for some added sparkle. The gorgeous papers are Brenda Walton's Speciality for K&Company. The punches used are SU ticket punch and Martha Stewart embossed Zig Zag.

We have a great Guest Designer this week... Debbie - Passion for Crafts. I am a huge fan of Debbie's gorgeous work and if you haven't come across her blog before you must click the link! Thank you so much Debbie for your sweet comment on your blog and for all the wonderful awards you passed to me. It was such a lovely surprise yesterday!

Thank you to my dear friend Jakki for sending me the above gorgeous card. Jakki has been using lots of The Greeting Farm stamps recently and rocks them! If you get time do check out her blog!

I would like to thank sweet Heike for the above award.. you really spoil me!

The above award was given to me by a very talented 12 year old called Georgia. Her creations are beautiful and she has the most cutest blog header too! Please go and visit her and say hello if you have time.

After my busy week I will now slow down my posts so see you in a couple of days with my High Hopes POTM.

Hugs,
