Good Evening...

Just a little catch up...I'm struggling to get back into the swing of things to be honest...so much to do and don't know where to start!! Lol  If you have emailed me....I promise to get back to you very soon :-)

I've spend a lot of time over Christmas tidying and sorting the house ready to get some decorating done plus loading loads of gorgeous wedding stationary onto my website....still a away to go yet but I'm getting there so I may be hit and miss for a while.  I have a lighter load with my DT commitments...I have decided to step down from the Totally Papercrafts and on a break from Passion For Promarkers as Team 1 have taken over the reigns.

Right....I have the winner to announce for my Store Loyalty Scheme and it is....Sally Rudevics

Here are your random numbers:

I'm Late, I'm Late For CES Challenges....

Good Afternoon...

Oh I am so late posting the new challenge over at CES Challenges.  I totally forgot to do it this morning before I went off shopping.

It's Shell's turn to choose the theme and it is:-

''Anything Goes''

There maybe some confusion as the theme was originally Cute & Cuddly...when it was changed I totally forgot to let all our guest designers know!! I've slapped my wrist and kicked my bum...sorry ladies ;-)

We have a very special sponsor this week...Didge's Doodles who is Shell's daughter & is only 13. 

You can purchase Didge's work HERE

 One lucky winner will receive 3 images as the prize.

I used Didge's Sammy Cat image with Milton papers, card candy, charm, smooth white card and Promarkers....all available in my store.

Pollycraft Challenge #75 - White Christmas....

Good Morning...

Hope you have all had a fabulous weekend, it's been nice for the temperature to be above zero.  The snow is starting to melt here now but I hear we are expecting more towards the end of next week...great!! Lol

I had my stall at the Christmas fayre yesterday but unfortunately there wasn't many people about so I didn't sell a great deal.  The footpaths etc here have been terrible so probably stopped people from having a wander about.  A group of volunteers from the village have started to clear them and would you believe someone actually reported them to the health & safety - where is the community spirit in that??!!

Right onto the challenge and the theme is...

 ''White Christmas''

An all white card apart from colour on the image or a snowy/winter scene.  And you have until the 9th January to enter....we will be back with a new challenge on the 10th.

One lucky winner will receive 10 images from Pollycraft.

and also a gorgeous Memory Box Tinsel paper pad from Crafty Emma's Store....that's me!! Lol ;-)

For my card I used ''Basil The Snowman'' and roundabout sentiments from Pollycraft coloured with Promarkers on smooth white card which are available in my store together with charms, flowers and pearls.

Challenges:-

1 - Creative Inspirations / White Papers Only

2 - Delightful / Embossing

3 - Daring Cardmakers / Snow Much Fun

4 - Paper Cutz / Snowflake or Snowman
5 - I Love Promarkers / Christmas Carol/Song

(Frosty The Snowman - Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul,  With a corncob pipe and a button nose, And two eyes made out of coal.  Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say, He was made of snow but the children know how he came to life one day.  There must have been some magic in that, Old silk hat they found.  For when they placed it on his head, He began to dance around.)

***********************************************

 

Another card made for an order using ''Penguin Love'' again from Pollycraft.  The papers are DCWV Winter Stack.  The poinsettia's are available in my store together with the charm, Promarkers and smooth white card.

Challenges:-

1 - Moving Along With The Times / Lots Of Spots
