Birdies & puppy dog tails

Lots of photos.....
only two cards,
and a wee felt flower.
But doggy updates are included.

My first card is using
my new Martha Stewart punch.
I am entering it in
Scrapbook sisters Thank you Challenge.

I didn't want this to be too
fussy as the wee birdies papers
are made using basic grey scraps
that are a bit busy.

~~~~~T~~~~~

Next card is for a friend I hope to see tomorrow.
I am loving my new punch,
and can see it being used a lot.
The back ground paper is basic grey again.

Cute card Thursday want 1,2,3.
I have used 1 punch,
2 stamps and 3 colours.
Pixie dust want buttons on the card.
Truly scrumptious want pink, brown & green.

~~~~~T~~~~~

This felt flower is for the same person
the card is for.
I made this flower using
tim holtz cutting die.

OK......
It's doggy time!!
This doggy bed is like a wee house
and has two openings into it.
We had to remove it as these two fight
over it, and bash who ever
is trying to get in the house.
They are both too big to fit
right inside it.....
But both try anyway!

They are as like chalk and cheese
in every way.

Our friend broke her ankle
when she fell on the ice,
her wee dog came to stay
with us for almost a week.....
He loves Poppy....
He is not so keen on Bella.
But Bella really doesn't care.....

Hope you are grand xxxx

love is.......

Few cards from me today,
I know, I know....
nothing from me in weeks and then....
well you know the rest !

Was my Mam & Dad's Wedding Anniversary
yesterday and this was the simple card I made them.
The backing paper is a tea green in colour.
My photo's are nae great....but
I am focusing on not stressing over wee things
just now.......

Totally Gorjuss want a card for someone
special....and my folks are special to me.


~~~~~T~~~~~


This card is a play around with new stamps.
I am not sure about it at all.
I think I made a mess of colouring her eyes.
I have a sentiment but dont want
to say who it is for till I get it posted,
and the person recieves it.

Sine this wee sweet pea is a fairy
she is my entry for the following challenges.
My Time to craft want up in the air,

~~~~~T~~~~~

None of us like making them...
but I think they are worth the effort.
I didnt want to do a black a white card this time.
Last few I have sent have been B & W.

~~~~~T~~~~~


And lastly a thank you card.

I actually cut out a few red felt hearts
to make tree decs to send.
But ran out of time!
Maybe next year.....

This fits Allsorts ,
and Cute Card Thursday
who both want thank you cards.
And after Anne's recomendation
I have also entered it in
Phindy's place's challenge for thank you cards too.

Hope you are all well
Love Teen xx

Crafty Pad # 22 ~ Shine

Its Crafty Pad time again!

This week we are looking for you to

shine!

As in sunshine, shiny cards, metallic or glitter

You may use any stamp,
any embellishments/ribbons/brads etc. :)

If you use a Crafty Pad stamp your
name will be entered twice for the prize.:) :)

If you DO NOT use a Crafty Pad stamp

then your name will be entered once for the prize. :)

The prize is any single Crafty Pad you would like.

So this week all the Crafty Pad team
are all using the Butterfly set.

I have made a sun catcher.
Not the easiest thing to try to photograph though!

I started with felt flowers,
added orange sequins on both sides
to each petal & an orange button to the centre

Beads were knotted on along the fishing line,
I really must ask my dad, how to tie better knots
on fishing line so they look neater!

Using stayzon to stamp the large butterfly
onto acetate and coloured using glass markers.
I used stickels and liquid pearls


It ended up with a nice crackly effect against the sun

I hung a butterfly charm at the bottom
this helps add weight to the sun catcher
and helps it hang straighter.

I hope you come on over & see
what the lovely DT girls have made,
including Pascale who joins us as our guest DT.

Fancy joining in with us this week?
Have you seen Crafty Pad has a sale on too?

Crafty Muse ~ change of seasons

Time for a new challenge over at Crafty Muse.
and seeing as we have just had a change of season
Spring or Autumn depending on which side of the world you live on
then we would like you to make a project based on that theme:

Change of Season

So since I am enjoying the start Spring this is what I made
using Angelique holding flowers.

I used the same design from card class on Tuesday.
The image matting overhangs the front page.

Papers are Bo Bunny which I love just now.

I love Spring, The promise of new life in nature.
The warmer weather.
It's all good baby!

Crafty Pad # 9

something torn/ripped,
2 brads and some ribbon.

There is as always, a wee prize.



Well you seen my sneaky peak!
Wish I had a pair of pins like that!!!

Mind you, I wouldn't mind her waist either!!!!

I do love this shade of green, has to be my fave colour just now.
The paper is a double sided 12 inch sheet from my local store.....
but I canny mind who by!
