Crafty Catz Challenge #83 - Anything Goes - DT


Morning everyone, hope your weekend is going well so far.  Yesterday was a new challenge over at Crafty Catz and Janette set the theme of 'anything goes' this week, so a nice easy one.  I have used a Teddy Bea image from the Teddy Bo range of digital stamps, I am loving these at the moment and they are such fun to colour. The papers are digital too and are from Nitwit, been having loads of trouble with my printer recently and a few weeks ago it worked for one day only, bless it! so I printed off all my digi papers so I could use them, glad I did as the daft printer hasn't done much since.  I was meaning to get more cards done for you this week but I have been decorating instead, finishing off bits I had started ages ago, and next week I am starting on Ben's room, it is in a real need of a coat or two of fresh paint and he loves the Gruffolo so I am using that as my theme, I had seen some bedding in Next I loved ages ago and now I actually want to buy it it is not available, always the case isn't it but never mind I will get there in the end. lol!  Have a great weekend.

Crafty Catz Challenge #82 - Pink, Black and White - DT

 
Hello all, well I thought this post wasn't going to happen today with all the problems with blogger but I am glad to see he is back to his old self and hopefully won't disappear on us again today.  The new challenge at Crafty Catz is now up and running and this week the lovely Dianne has chosen the theme of 'pink, black and white'.  The DT had some great sponsor images to play with from Robyn's Fetish and I love this flower girl image she is so sweet and was a dream to colour.  I hope you can join us this week and if you are interested I have some cards for sale on ebay at the moment.  Thank you for taking time to visit and have a great weekend, I will be back in the next day or so with another Teddy Bea card, I am now officially addicted to Teddy Bea so be warned. lol!

Hugs

Teddy Bea - Star


Hello, hope you are well, where has the sun gone?  It has totally disappeared here this week and it is quite cool today too :(  I haven't been around for a while, had a break from cards last week and it was also Ben's 7th birthday last Saturday, he was 7 on the 7th lol! and we had a party for him at the local ten pin bowling place and he had the best time, it was lovely to see him with his friends and also to see how his friends are around him and they all love him and are so great with him it was very touching and a great day.  Yesterday I actually made a card for no reason other than I wanted to and I loved it, I have been wanting to do this for ages now and plan on making many more 'just because' cards in the next few weeks.  The image I have used is one from Teddy Bo, I have had my eye on these for ages but was very nervous about the colouring of the bear but I think she turned out ok in the end and will be popping back to the Teddy Bo shop for me of these beauties, her name is Teddy Bea and she is soooo cute with her little wand.  Well thank you for visiting, all your comments mean the world to me and I hope to do some blog hopping later and see what you have all been up to.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
CES Challenges - Favourite colour combo - mine is pink with a touch of green
Crazy 4 Challenges - Flowers
The Crafty Calendar Challenge - Teddy Bears
