Challenge 110# Get The Bunting Out

Hi

Time goes so quickly, it's team Karen's turn on the Digi Doodle Shop Challenges and our theme is 'Get The Bunting Out'.  It's everywhere here in the UK at the moment with the Diamond Jubilee Celebrations.  I've never used it on my cards before so I decided to go with all the street parties and get together's etc that's going on for my theme..

I've used the 'Vintage Shelf' digi stamp and coloured and cut out the tea pot and cups.  Used blue and white and red and white dots backing paper that I already had in my stash and cut a doily in half.  Used the same red paper on the bottom half of the card.  I've cut the bunting out and glued it on used hemp cord that I have for jewellery and two brads.  I've also stamped the word celebrate on the bottom.  I hope you like it.  So let's see what you can come up with  You don't have to use a Digi Doodle Shop image but you do have to use bunting on your card..  As usual the prize is a $10 gift certificate from Digi Doodle Shop.  Please check out the other Design Team Members fantastic blogs.  Thanks for joining in.

S.W.A.L.K.

Hi

Hope your all okay and the weather is good with you.  We've had a nice couple of days here for a change.  I've been able to leave to back door open for Hannah who is quite happy.  The only thing for me is that there is a field at the back of us and this year he's planted rape seed  (think that's how you spell it) and I have 'hey fever'   so my noise is running like mad at the moment, but it seems a shame not to enjoy the weather.

My card is a Wedding Anniversary for my middle Brother's Wedding Anniversary card.  It's a Crafter's Companion SWALK stamp which I love.  I've coloured it in in Promarkers and the background paper is a mask which I have used a new product I found when we went to our local craft shop which I love Bob and Jean are lovely and Jean is so helpful.  It can be bought from BJ Crafts, Tilney St Lawrence, Norfolk.  It's really unusual but easy to use.  It's called 'Sparkle Medium' from Imagination Crafts this one is Diamond there are lots of other colours but this is lovely it keeps the colour of the card you use.  You rub it over the mask and take the mask away carefully then leave it to dry preferably overnight.  I can really recommend it.

Hope you like the card.
Have a good week.

DDS#108 - Work Related

Hi

Well it soon comes round to team Karen's turn on our Challenge blog at Digi Doodle Shop Challenges and our theme is 'Work Related'.  So I've chosen a Farm scene as we're we live here in Norfolk we are surrounded by farms and Paul's OH Mother's side of the family we're farmers.  So please use work related theme on your projects.  The Digi Stamp I've chosen is 'Old Barn & Cows'

We are sponsored by the Digi Doodle Shop and the prize is a $10 voucher to spend in their on line store. 

I've coloured the image in with ProMarkers and the paper and embellishments are from the latest goodie bag from DoCrafts.

Dad's Birthday

Hi

Hope everyone's okay and having a nice weekend.  We've actually had no rain since Friday which for us is a bonus. We've not done to much this weekend, Paul had to get his hair cut so we went into Downham Market to do that and do our shopping yesterday.  Then last night we watched the Brtiains Got Talent Final which we really enjoyed.  Today Paul's watched the Grand Prix and I've been card making.  He's now trying to cut the grass.

It was my Dad's birthday on Friday, they live in Hull so I don't get to see them as much as I'd like too, especially as we've only just got a car after our car accident.  He seemed to have a nice day anyway which is a good thing.  I've done this card for him because they used  to live in Scarborough and it reminds me of that..  We all love it up there and near Whitby, but that was before I was born I think they only had my eldest two brothers then.  I could quite happily live near the sea.

Hope you all have a good week.
