Opal the Optimist - Uptown Girl!

Good Morning Everyone!

I hope you are all well and have nice plans for the weekend.  I haven't been feeling very well the last couple of days, I did manage to get into the craft room and relax with some colouring!  I have used a new Uptown Girl image today from Stamping Bella which I got from Quixotic Paperie. Here is my card:

I really enjoy working with these lovely ladies and the sentiment comes with it.  The papers are from Maja Designs - Vintage Spring Basics.  I am not sure the hearts work in the corner but it was too late to move them!  The dies are from Dies to Die For and are Memory Box Precious Hearts and Die-namics Jumbo Fishtail Banner Stax.  The flowers and pearls are from the Hobby House.  Just a touch of glamour dust to finish off!  

I hope you like it, I do like this colour combination!

Have a great day and weekend.

Love and Hugs

Good Morning Everyone!

I hope you enjoyed your Easter Sunday!  The sun managed to come out yesterday which made a change!  Isn't it great that the clocks have now gone forward, lovely light evenings!

My gorgeous blogging buddy Lisa asked me to be Guest DT this month at Heck of a Challenge and of course I said yes!  The theme this month is:

"Water"

I had just bought the perfect image for this challenge and had been waiting to use it!  Here is my card:

The image is Stamping Bella - Uptown Girl Bubbles Loves Bubbly!  There is so much glamour dust on this but you can't see it in the photos!  The gorgeous paper is Echo Park Everyday Eclectic and the sentiment is Whimsy Stamps Friendship Ticket.  I left the accessories quite simple as the paper was quite busy.  

The challenge lasts for a month, so plenty of time!  The winner will win a £10 gift voucher from Every Crafts a Pound either the online shop or in store.  

So that's it from me for now.  I will be back later with my Digi Bells card.  

Love and Hugs

Good Afternoon!

The weekend is almost here!!  Yippee!  I am feeling very pleased with myself as I have more or less finished by Christmas shopping now!  I don't think I have ever been this organised!  However, I am now starting to stress that I am not getting stressed about it all!! Does that make sense! :-)

Anyway, enough waffle.  I recently joined the Stamping Bella Sistahood on Facebook!  They have some fabulous inspiration using the gorgeous Stamping Bella images that I just had to get some images out to colour.  Thank you ladies!  Here is my card:

I am so going to start using these images more!!  I do love them but just never have time. Anyway this is Uptown Girl - Quinn in her Boots which you can get from Quixotic Paperie here.  I teamed her with Echo Park - Winter Wishes papers and added snowflakes using my Die-namics Let it Snowflake die.  Lots of glamour dust and pearls to finish off!  Oh and a snowflake charm from my stash.  

I hope you like her!  

Have a great evening and stay warm!
