50th Pop Up

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of the new challenge over at Pearly Sparkles Challenge 



The theme for this month is Anything Goes.  A nice easy one to start of the New Year.

I hope that you can come on over and play along with us 

For my DT Project I made a Pop Up Box Card for a 50th Birthday

I used several dies to create this card.  The numbers and the Happy Birthday are both Robert Addams Dies.  I cut the balloons and stars using dies too and then finished by adding a pink satin bow.

I would like to enter this card into the following Challenges

Cute Ellie Gift Bag

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of the new challenge over at Crafty Animals 



As always the theme for this month is Anything Goes as long as you include an animal in your creation.

I hope that you can come on over and play along with us 

For my DT project I have made a Birthday Gift Bag using this cute elephant image called Ellie Bouquet from Conie Fong Art  I have coloured her up using Copics

This was my first ever go at tea bag folding a flower and once I got the hang of it I quite enjoyed it! 

The patterned paper is from Crafters Companion and I cut the Happy Birthday words using a Robert Addams Die.  I popped on Pearl Gems to finish

James in Pink!

Hi Everyone

James the bear is my favourite character from Lili Of The Valley and I have made several Christmas Cards this year using him

Here is the card I have made for my Mother in Law this year using James Bear but I got him in touch with his feminine side and gave him a pink outfit!

This image is called James Santa Stop Here and I have coloured it using Copics and Diamond Sparkles Glitter 

I made a 6" Easel Card.  The pink Snowflake paper is from Digi Doodle Studios and you can find it in the Twinkle Berry Winter Digital Paper Pack 

I cut the image out using a Spellbinders Circle Die and then layered this onto a scalloped circle which I cut from a Spellbinders Scalloped Circle Die.  I added Lace Borders.  I used the sentiment as the "Stop" and added some punched snowflakes.  I popped on some clear pink heart gems to the centres

Beary Christmas!

Hi Everyone

I think I am just about finished with my Christmas Shopping.  How are you all getting on?

Today I am sharing with you the Christmas Card that I have made for my Husband.  

I do like to layer up an image and I just had to do this with this cute little image called James Christmas Tree from Lili Of The Valley Digi Shop 

I coloured the image using Copics and added Diamond Sparkles Glitter to his hat trim and bobble.  I then layered him onto dark green and a light green card layers.  I hand stamped the "To My Husband" sentiment using a Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad.  The stamp is from Stampingallday

Sparkly Dinosaur

Hi Everyone

Here I am sharing another inspiration for the Pink Gem Etsy Shop 


This gorgeous girly dinosaur is called Sparkle Dinosaur and I have coloured her with Copics. 

I saw a card recently that was laid out similar to this CAS card and I really wanted to have a go.  I love CAS but am not really very good at it myself lol!

I created the pink circle using a Memento Dew Drop ink pad and circle die and I used a Clear Star Gelly Pen to add some sparkly dots.  The verse is hand stamped using a Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad and is from Stampingallday
