Sneak Peek Day 2

I'm back again to share another sneak peek with you today for our High Hopes release tomorrow! My card has also been created for our challenge this week at A Spoon Full of Sugar where Paola has the below great sketch for us.


The adorable image on my cardd is called Merry Mouse which is designed by High Hopes fabulous new artist Laurie Furnell. Merry Mouse is coloured with Copic Markers. The french sentiment is also by High Hopes and will also be released tomorrow. I will have all the new stamps available in my store :-) The papers are from the new Basic Grey 6x6" Paper pad Jovial. I added some Organza ribbon and buttons from the Noel collection to finish.

You won't want to miss out on more sneak peeks today from the rest of the High Hopes team!!! There is such a huge variety of designs!!!!

High Hopes Sneak Peek Day 1

Morning... hope you had a wonderful weekend and if your in the UK still enjoying the bank holiday!!! Our sneak peeks begin today sharing the wonderful art from High Hopes new artist Laurie Furnell!!!!

As soon as I saw this adorable image Sweet Lili Mouse stamp I knew she would be perfect for Zoe's Lunch bag tag. You may remember the tags I created for the girls last year which you can see here. The Identity tags can be picked up at your local stationary store. I replaced the clip this year with a book ring so it would be more secure.

Sweet Lili Mouse has been coloured with Copic Markers with a little Primsa Pencil. A very simple project but I am pleased with how it came out and Zoe loves it... Just need to make another 3 now... 1 for Danni's lunch bag and 1 each for the girls school bags! Just a few last minute bits of uniform to grab but I have most of their stuff ready for next Wednesday.

Be sure to check out the High Hopes blog for links to Design Team so you can check out their fabulous sneaks..... plus a chance to win a package bursting with new release stamps!!!!!

See you tomorrow!!!

A Spoon Full of Sugar - Christmas

Wow... not only am I excited to actually be on time for a challenge but.... I also am sharing a sneak peak with you a day early! Today over at A Spoon Full of Sugar is Christmas and the super sweet Fairy is from my new Wags 'n Whiskers release. Fairy Hannah will be available in stores on Friday! Hannah is an extra special as we named her after my very good friend Debbie's 12 year old daughter Hannah. Hope you like her sweetie! The image has been drawn by our talented artist Cris de Lara... isn't she beautiful and so versatile too as today I have used her for a Christmas card but next time maybe for a Fairy Special Birthday!

Do you love the papers on my card...? these are Kaisercraft Christmas Carnival. They are available in handy 6x6" Pads and I just love the non-traditional colours and designs. The red strip on the right is one of the die cuts you get in the back of the pad. The larger snowflakes are cut from an SU Punch and the smaller a MS Medium Simple Snowflake Punch. The sentiment is by Pink Cat Studio and of course I squeezed in some flat back pearls :-)

Be sure to check out the A Spoon Full of Sugar Blog as their is heaps of inspiration there... We all say each year we will start our Christmas cards earlier so no excuses! Also one lucky player has the chance to win the above £15 gift certificate to spend in my store :-)

See you soon with more sneak peeks. Don't forget you could win the full Fairy release by helping us Spread the word... more details on my post below or over at the Wags 'n Whiskers blog.

Have a fairy special Tuesday!

High Hopes Challenge - Water

I can't believe this month is going so quickly and just over 3 weeks and the girls will be back at school... time to start thinking about buying their new uniform... I hate that it is in the stores before they have even finished for Summer but better not leave it too late!

Ok, back to my card which is for this weeks new High Hopes Challenge. Our topic this week is water so I coloured up a Dustin Pike Image - Mer-Cat. The bright papers are from the Paper Pad SEI Jocelyn.. oh I love these wacky colours! My Mer-Kitty is coloured with Copic Markers and then a little Prismacolor Pencil to finish. I added a little stickles stardust.

Hope you can play along with us... remember each challenge you get the chance to win a High Hopes stamp of your choice! If your looking to purchase High Hopes Rubber Stamps I have a great selection in my store.

Have a great evening!

Hugs,
