Sparkles Monthly Challenge - Halloween

Afternoon all.  We have a new challenge this month over at  

Sparkles Monthly Challenges 

Halloween

Yep its nearly that time of year again when the pumpkins come out, kids get dressed up and we have trick or treaters at the door.

I am not a big Halloween fan, so for this theme I did a friendly felt bat who is called Stitch

He isnt scary and my son loves him, I created the pattern myself and then stiched him up, the wings can fold over his face for sleepy time 

If you would like to join our challenge this month then you could be in with the chance of winning some lovely digi images from  

Whoopsi Daisy

If you would like some more inspiration then hop on over to the Blog and check out the other DT's fab work.  We are a multi crafts challenge blog so your make doesnt have to be a card it can be anything.

See you soon

Paper Craft Inspirations - Santa

Morning all, the new issue of Paper Craft Inspirations came out just over a week ago, it has a fab freebie as always and dont forget that you can go to the paper craft inspirations website to download fab digi images templates and lots more!

For this issue I tested the gorgeous Santa Digi's and they are FAB they print beautifully although I did add a little extra shading with my Pro Markers.  If you arent confident with stamping and want to make some gorgeous cards with a Santa theme then this is the digi for you.

I kept my make clean and simple as the image really does all the work, I added presents to santas sack by slitting a line and then adding some little bits of card with twine wrapped around.  Glamour dust always adds a special touch.  And of course if you know me you know I adore retro spot so had to add a bit of that paper this time.

Go check out the website as there really are some fab ideas there as well as in the Mag.

catch you all soon

Christmas Hearts

So carrying on the Christmas decoration theme I made these lovely little hearts.  I have made them before for valentines but thought this time I would add a little Christmas touch.  They would look perfect on a tree or dotted around the house maybe on door handles.

 Large hearts

Mini hearts.

The felt I use is by the Felt Fairy she has her own fantabulous blog, a ebay and online store go check out her blog for more details, I can highly recomend her, her service is fantastic and she is one of the most helpful people I know when it comes to felt buying!

If you would like to purchase any of my decorations or get regular updates you can find all my goodies over HERE on my face book page.

Catch you very soon with a Paper Craft Inspirations Catch up

Preparing for Christmas

Yes its nearly that time of year again, the shops have started to put their Christmas stock out!  So this year I have got a little head start on my Christmas decorations as I spent long into December still sewing them last year! 

Here is a piccy of what I have so far

Christmas Puds and Ginger bread men

For the guinea pig fans the Angel piggys are back, of course they can be used all year round

There are more to come everything has been cut ready to sew but my little hands can only do so much.

Catch you again soon
