Thanks for all your comments about Poppy Dog.
She is all better now, back to being cheeky !
I have taken two days from work this week.
This working lark is seriously getting
in the way off my crafting time......
This is a long post.
So make yourself comfy!
Here are some of my makes.
This wee box came with flowers in it,
I can't remember which flowers it was....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This box is decorated to match
a card I made earlier this week,
the flowers are Bo Bunny,
I have filled it with goodies,
and it will be posted to a mate
as soon as I get organised!
The wee bee brad is Poppicrafts
and the sentiment is See D Stamps.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This one is very different from
what I normally make.
But I like it.
The stamps are Stampin Up
I like the fact the centre
is just the buffed cards stock.
I used sukura pens to glitter the stamps.
I used the cuttle bug on the blue card stock.
The ribbon flower is made with Poppicraft ribbons,
I was thinking about entering it in the
competition over there to use ribbons
as the main feature, but I am going
to have another go at this challenge.

I am entering it in Cute Card Thursday
who want flowers on the cards this week.
ABC Challenge this week is
J for jagged edge.
I have tied wee knots in the ribbon on the left
and used that to hold the beads in place.

I just love this new stamp of mine!
It is beautiful but I am struggling to colour it
as well as I would like.

I have tired a couple of ways now.
This card has it embossed with versamark
and then heat embossed with glittery black powder.
Then shaded it with grey pro markers.

Monochrome Madness.
A spoonful of sugar's challenge this week is
To use die's or punches.
I have used punches to cut the flowers
and my nesties to cut & emboss the matting.
The flowers are vellum and glitter card.
The wee sentiment stamps are again SU.
Beady Jan suggested that I tired stamping it
on black or dark card and then
embossing with silver or grey powder.
I tired but I think the stamp is to detailed.
But thank you Beady Jan for the idea.
Thanks to everyone who left me tips
and ideas about colouring in black.
it is a work in progress!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Last one I promise!
Over at Just Christmas & Birthday cards
Janina has done a lovely sketch.
I have used a house mouse image
that Vanessa has sent to me.
The wee snowflake is is a See D Stamp,
used with silver ink.

wow, you have been busy, gorgeous cards!
Many thanks for joining in the CCT challenge! Have a great evening, Debx
Lovely creations. I'm here following your link on Creative Card Crew. Love the puppy stamp. Fab card you've done!
Have you tried stamping him with a water resistant ink and try watercolour paint? You'd be able to do him chocolate brown, yellow/light brown or black (I think its a labrador pup, well those are thier colours hehe) anyways - hope you succeed in finding a good medium for working with :o)

glad to hear that Poppy is better :D

Thanks for popping over to my blog in return for me poppin in here! hehe...
Thank you for commenting on my daughter who is also called Poppy hehe. When my other half suggested the name I had an image of a pup/dog and here I am visiting someones blog who has a dog named Poppy. amazing hehe...

Lovely cards Tina, love the puppy dog one especially. Have you got any prismacolor pencils, cause if you stamped him using versafine ink, and then colored him using the pencils and mineral spirits, it would come up looking really good, similar to how one colors the house mouse images with so much black in them. But he's an adorable stamp, I can see why you bought it.

fab stuff hunni, love the doggy stamp its cute. Have you tried not colouring at all? I think just stamping in black and letting it stand out on its own would look lovely.

You have been so busy Tina and what a great bunch of cards you have made. I love the puppy dog stamp and what you have done with it looks perfect to me.
Have a great weekend.

wow at all those cards
re the colouring - Rach recently did a copic tut. on her blog http://papercraftsbyrach.wordpress.com/2009/04/10/copic-tutorial-warning-this-is-a-long-post/
and as they are similar to promarkers I have been using her tips - anyway, she has coloured part of that image with black and the tut. shows how she has built up the colour, so that might help
Fab cards and creations again Tina. Awww! that puppy stamp is just too cute for words. It looks wonderful inked up on your cards. Thanks for joining the Creative Card Crew Challenge.
