Crafty Ribbons # 17

First of all thank you for the emails
asking if I was ok.
I didn't mean to worry anyone.

I am doing not too bad,
been busy with stuff....
and lack of MOJO again.
Bad combo.

Anyway....

Here are my (late as usual )
Crafty Ribbons Challenge cards.

I loved this Swiss Dot organza Ribbons!

You get so many beautiful ribbons to play with,
if you haven't given this challenge a go,
you need to check out their web site,
today is also Freebie Friday.

Anyway.....here are my cards.

This one is made of a stampin up stamp
and punched out circles.
You can't see it but the black card has a
lovely texture on it.

I used different thickness's of foam
pads to give the circles different heights.

Next an altered CD using my fave new
Sugar Nellie stamp.

There are wee white dots on her tee shirt.

~~~~~T~~~~~

I usually find I have real favorites
when my bag of ribbons arrive,
but there was just sooooooo
many to choose from.


A wee gift tag, the heart on the
white card is enhanced with glitter
sukura pen.

~~~~~T~~~~~


This one is the one I like the best.
It is Magna Sugar Nellie stamp
that I love. I cut out the mistletoe
they are hugging below.



Well that's me....
I have more to show you,
but need to go & see what you have all
been up to!



Hope you are are well.

love Teen xx

Crafty pad # 20 ~ holes!!!

The challenge this week is -

then your name will be entered once into the draw.

The prize is - your choice of any Crafty Pad single stamp. :) :)

Now we have a very lovely talented
Guest DT for the next couple of weeks. :)
So let me please welcome and introduce Maxine. :) :)

I have used Belinda in this weeks make.
And have made one big hole in
the centre of a cover CD.
I used my crop o dile to munch all the way
round a bit like a donnut
in this cupcake feast!

Red gems are cherry tops for some cakes.
Pink sukura for the hearts
on the paper background.

The centre of the CD became the top circle.
And my Happy Birthday stamps
were not quiet circular enough
but I am happy enough with that.

There is a black gem in the flower
and the brown ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons,
Oh and there is a sale on at Crafty Pad Stamps
starting today!
P&P is free!!!

Crafty Ribbons # 5 Muddy Paws

I loved the new Challenge from
Crafty Ribbons

Muddy Paws

Here are the items I am sending off.

I know you might have seen this photo before
but this is Poppy's best friend Brodie.
She loves him !!
I have used Pink & Blue "woof " ribbon
for boy & girl dogs.
The pink & blue paw print ribbon
combo is ment to look like a heart.
The brads are from Poppicrafts.

I stamped bigger paw prints in pink
and smaller westie paw prints in blue.

Now being a dog lover.....
I was tempted to just do
doggy themed makes....
but along with "woof" ribbons,
there are lovely meow ones too!
I haven't made an altered CD in ages.
The decoupage papers are paper nation.

And lastly my fave make!!

a wee box using green & blue ribbon
with rub on dog pictures on white card.

and when you lift off the lid.....

a glittery wee surprise!!

I maybe should have done 4 dog paws
as Man's best friend os four legged...
but they wouldn't fit!


The arty farty thought of using Poppy's
dog treat box and biccies as photo props
did not go un-noticed.....

Thief!!!

*sigh*

Andrew is going to get this to the post office tomorrow.
It is all boxed up ready to go.
I am back in bed with yet another
cold chest lurgy type thing.

Poppy keeps bringing me things....
like her toys,
socks,
clean washing,
her dog lead,
the bag of dog poo bags
