Surprise Mickey with Digital Delights

Hi everyone.

I hope you're all well and enjoying the summer.

It's time for Challenge #12 at Digital Delights.

As usual it's Anything goes as long as you include a stamp (either digital or rubber). Here's my little bit of inspiration...


I've used the super cute Surprise Mickey Monkey and coloured him using Copics. I combined a couple of backing papers which have been in my stash for years. I got them from a Warehouse which was selling off a load of stock quite a few years ago now. They're from some pads called cardstock Stackers by Generations. I've added some spotty ribbon over the join, matted everything with red card from my stash and finished off with a couple of Spellbinder stars with a small blue brad in the middle.

I hope you'll pop over to the challenge HERE and check out the fabulous inspiration from my talented team mates.

Thanks for visiting. I hope to see you again soon.

A recipe with Ruby

Hi everyone. I hope you're all well and enjoying the sunshine.

There's a new challenge at Ruby's Rainbow.

This time we have a recipe for you...
1. Image
2.Patterened Papers
3. Embellishments

Here's my little bit of inspiration...


The image is from a LOTV artpad (Set 25 Magical Fairies). I've cut it using a Tattered Lace Charisma Frame die and edged with Spun Sugar distress ink. The sentiment is from a Spellbinder die cut from glitter card. Finishing touches include some spotty ribbon from my stash and 3 flowers handmade by my best friend Susie (she made me loads at Christmas). 

Now it's your turn. Don't forget out to check out the rest of the design team's inspiration.

Thanks for visiting.
See you soon.

Hi everyone, hope you're all well.

It's a nice simple one this time...Christmas in July.

Here's my little bit of inspiration...



The image is from the Daisy Mae Draws Warmest Wishes ready to colour art book from The Hobby House. I've coloured him using copics and added some glitter. I've used a couple of backing papers from my stash, matting with both turquoise and red card. I finished off with an Anita's message tag sentiment.

Meet Fast Food Freddy

Hi everyone.

I'm here to share the delightful Fast Food Freddy with you. He's part of the new release at Digital Delights by Louby Lou.



I've teamed him with a new set of papers called Poppin Fun.

I've used Copics to colour this little cutie, layering with black card from my stash.
I've used Tonic dies and finished off with 4 small navy brads and some twine. A simple card to show off the fab image and sentiment.

To see the rest of the new release at Digital Delights visit HERE.

You won't be disappointed.

Happy crafting

Snowflakes with Sparkles

Hi everyone,
I hope you're all well.

There's a new challenge at Sparkles Christmas Challenges

Our theme for the month is Snowflakes.

I made a card using my first attempt at a crocheted snowflake...


I've fastened the centre of the snowflake using a star shaped brad to a circle of silver shimmer card before gluing the rest of it. I've then set it on foam pads and added it to the striped backing paper from the Winter Wonderland collection by Crafts House. To finish off I added the Winter Wishes sentiment.

I hope you'll join in. You could win a great prize...
very generously donated by my Team mate Sandra.

Thanks for visiting.
I hope to see you again soon.
Hugs Helen
