Halloween Inspiration for The Papernest Dolls

Good Morning All and Happy Halloween!

I don't really do Halloween so we don't have Halloween stuff decorating the house, I know I am boring!  I do like making Halloween cards though and today I am sharing one I made for The Papernest Dolls.  Here it is:

I have used Little Witch Ellie who is just too cute really don't you think!!  I coloured her with copics.  The papers are from Echo Park - Mischievous pack.  I love the little pumpkin charms!  These are from the Hobby House.  I hope you like her!

Have a great Halloween and I will see you soon! 

Love and Hugs

White Only Christmas at MAWTT

Hi Everyone!

I am here this morning with my card for the new challenge over at Moving Along With The Times.  Our hostess this week is Wendy and she has challenged us to:

"White Only Christmas"

I really have trouble doing "white" cards!  I always want to add a little colour somewhere so I did struggle with this one a bit!  Anyway here is my card:

I have terrible problems taking photos of white cards so these aren't great, and the card is much whiter in real life!  I just out a piece of bazzill texture cardstock with my Lil Inker Stitched Square Die.  I then used my new La La Land dies with sparkle card stock.  The dies are Christmas Hill Border and Snowflake Banner (you will be seeing these a lot of the next few weeks!!) 

I then just added some pearls and the sentiment is from LOTV Christmas Set 75  

Please pop on over to the main challenge blog and take a look at the other gorgeous cards.  I hope you can join us this week!

Have a great day!  I have got half day's leave today and meeting mum for lunch! 

Love and Hugs

Hedgehogs at Moving Along With The Times!

Hi Everyone!

I am late this week with my card for Moving Along With The Times!  I just got confused with my days!!  Our gorgeous Janice is the hostess and her theme is:

"Hedgehogs"

When I stopped panicking I realised there are lots of gorgeous Hedgehog images around and I found an old Penny Black image that I have had for AGES!  Here is my card:

The image is called Hedgehog Bouquet and I decided to keep it simple. I really love this style and I will be doing some more simple style going forward. What do you think? 

I just layered onto Bazzill CS.  I coloured the image with copics and added some glamour dust and little flower gems.  The little butterflies are from my Tonic punch and the sentiment is Whimsy Stamps - Friendship Ticket Sentiments.

Well that's all from me!  Pop on over to the main challenge blog more some more cute little hedgehogs!!  

Have a nice evening and I will see you soon.

Love and Hugs
