CYDA Challenge - Embellishment Bingo

Good morning, we have a  new challenge with a difference this fortnight over at Craft Your days Away, its some thing I have never done before!  
Its Embellishment Bingo (picture are bottom of post to give idea)  I love a challenge but I think I was given too much choice lol but I settled with 
Pearls Ribbon and Flowers.


The sentiment is from the Whimsy store its from the christmas digi set well worth the pennies!  
Coloured with Pro markers, the papers are both from freebie packs in magazines.  
The ribbon is from my stash the flowers are from my never ending Duck Pond Crafts Christmas Blooms Kit, and the pearls are papermania.

So here is how embellishment bingo works, obviously you can nip 
on over to the blog and get the full details
all you need to do is pick one line of three embellishments, either horizontally, vertically or diagonally.  The rules are to just use the three embellishments in your chosen line on your craft project which of course dosent have to be a card it can be anything!

This fortnight we are sponsered by 

I look forward to seeing your makes!
Take care and see you in blogland

Autumn

Hello everyone on this sunny sunday!  We have a new challenge over at sparkles Challenges the theme this fortnight is AUTUMN.  I did struggle with what to make to fit this theme then I came across the gorgeous new range called NeighbourWood by By Helz Cuppleditch its part of the woodland friends range. 


I dont tend to use decoupage but this was so sweet and the papers arent really my bag either but I love them!
The Card candy is from the lovely Blooms Kit from Duck Pond Crafts Yes I still have loads left!

So if you fancy getting involved with this fortnights challenge and winning yourself some Di Digis Stamps then get on over to Sparkles Challenges and find out the deets Simples!

A spot of Thanks

Morning all, I have another quick make to show off to you today using the fab Blooms kit from
the blooms kit from october was christmas themed but I had some gorgeous blues in mine and I decided to use them to make a every day card.  There were also some wired decorations with beads on the end (like berries) dont even know what their proper name is so we shall go with 'wired decoration' lol I cut the wire and used just half with one berry as the centre of my flower.  The twine is from the kit too!

The bloom kits are £11 posted and are full of goodies the next one is due out very soon and has a fabulous theme!  There are also Card makers kits that have lots of goodies in to make complete cards.

Off to catch up with some sewing, I shall be back soon

Duck Pond Delights

This week I am playing catch up which isn't a bad thing as yesterday I had some time to play with the gorgeous Blooms Kit from Duck Pond Crafts.  If you check back a couple of posts you will see the fabulous goodies that come in a blooms kit but each month they are very different but still fabulous.  This month was christmas themed BUT as you will see in tomorrows post you dont have to use your goodies for christmas makes they can be used for anything!

Ribbon, Flowers which have been layerd, buttons, ribbon and card candy are all from the kit but you get LOADs of each so plenty to make lots of things.

I also made a little gift box card that can be filled with sweets or anything christmasy.
The Snowflakes are chipboard and I have painted them with Acrylic paints and added some fine glitter.  The ribbon is from the blooms kit.
Here is a reminder pic of what was in the Blooms Kit this month
The Kits are £11 posted and this month (november) has a fantastic theme that I had a little part to play in!

I shall be back tomorrow with another blooms kit piccy 

Thanks for stopping by and dont forget to go check out
