New Challenge at the Sugar Bowl

PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR MY MAWTT POST

Hi Again!

Before I get onto my next card I just want to apologise for being such a bad blogger recently.  I have spent most of my time packing, sorting, speaking to solicitors, taking trips to the tip, etc, etc!  Moving day is tomorrow and I am packing up my final bits today, including my craft room!  Once I am settled again I will make time to come round and see you all.  I do appreciate you all visiting me and leaving comments, especially when I don't get a chance to come back and see you all.  

So onto my card for the new Sugar Bowl challenge.  Remember the theme is:

"Anything Goes"

BUT you must remember to use a Sugar Nellie image.  Check out Funky Kits who have all the Sugar Nellie sweetness for you to buy!  Here is my card:

I have used the gorgeous Lolitta which you can get here from Funky Kits.  This is the first time I have coloured her up, I loved doing her hair!  The papers are Vintage Marketplace from Bazzill Basics and I have just added some mulberry flowers and pearls from The Hobby House. The die is from Cheery Lynn - Mini Fanciful Flourish.

You now need to pop on over to the Sugar Bowl challenge blog for more gorgeous inspiration and also to say goodbye to Erika who, very sadly, is stepping down from the Design Team.

OK, that is it from me today.  Am off to finish off my packing.  I will see you on the other side!  Have a great day.

Love and Hugs

I'm back again!  This time with my card for the brand new challenge at the Sugar Bowl.  

The theme is 

"Anything Goes" 

but you MUST use a Sugar Nellie image.

Here is my card:

 

This gorgeous image is called "Cassie's Rendezvous" which is part of the Home Grown range which you can get from Funky Kits.  I really enjoyed colouring her, she is so pretty.  I have used Maja Designs Vintage Summer papers.  The dies are Die-namics photo corners, Memory Box Fresh Foliage and Whimsy Stamps Picket Fence.  I wasn't too sure about this when I first did it but it has grown on me!  I do love her though!  

So, hop on over to the challenge blog to see all the fabulous inspiration.  Remember we are monthly now so plenty of time to join in!

Right, that is it from me today!  Hopefully I will be back over the weekend!

Remember our challenges run for a month now and the theme is "Anything Goes".  Please remember that you MUST use a Sugar Nellie image.  So here is my card:

I decided to use one of the new Vintage Adorables because they are so, well, adorable!!  This lovely lady is called Suzie and she is available in digi from Funky Kits here.
