Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.
Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.
I don't always get a chance to reply to all comments but I read them all when I approve them and I really appreciate you taking the time to give your comment.
The lovely banner was made especially for me by Amanda at Faery Ink Art & Design when I won her first blog challenge. family:";">http://faeryink.com/product/granmargaret-fairy-digital-stamp/

Outlawz progressive freebie challenge for October

Each month a different designer gives a free digi stamp for us to use for the Outlawz Progressive Freebie challenge.
http://outlawzchallenges.ning.com/group/freebie-progressive-challenge/forum/topics/progressive-challenge-october-2020

If you haven't already joined in you can join the challenge and send an email requesting the image, make a project for the challenge and then you will receive the free image next month.

This month Oddball Art has provided two images one cute and one creepy - Sugar the Zombie

I have embossed a bright orange card with Sissex embossing folder (my scanner didn't scan the colour correctly, the card is a similar colour to the ribbon, but brighter)
Added strips of orange paper from My Minds Eye - Stella Rose Mabel papers 6x6 pad
Added orange ribbon
Embossed another piece of orange card with the Sissex embossing folder
Printed Oddball Art digi stamp Sugar the Zombie (cute version), coloured with orange and yellow markers and cut out and layered on top.  Coloured heart from stamp with orange marker and punched out with circle punch.

Have You Watched the Fairies

(Rose Fyleman)

Have you watched the fairies
when the rain is done,
Spreading out their little
wings to dry them in the sun?
I have, I have!
Isn't it fun?

Have you heard the fairies
all among the limes
Singing little fairy tunes
to little fairy rhymes?
I have, I have,
Lots and lots of times!

Have you seen the fairies
dancing in the air
And dashing off behind the stars
to tidy up their hair?
I have, I have,
I've been there!


I have used We are 3 papers from April Showers paper set
Sherry West digi stamp which I have coloured with chalks, markers and gel pens.

12 months of Christmas cards link up midway post challenge 70 - colour challenge

12 months of Christmas cards link up 70 midway post - anything Christmas goes with optional theme colours
http://12monthsofchristmaslinkup.blogspot.com/

Our extra sponsor this month is Patties Creations 
https://www.etsy.com/shop/pattiescreations


I have used a strip of paper from each paper from the set Lisa made for this challenge,
Patties Creations digi stamp Christmas Angel which I have coloured with chalks, markers and glitter pens.
We are 3 sentiment from Happy Christmas sentiment set

I hope you will go over and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.

I free paper to everyone who links up a minimum of 2 cards.
If you want the chance to win this month's featured paper pack, make sure that your card showcases at least THREE of the colours from the palette below.
Keep in mind though, that you don't need to follow the twist to link up your cards and earn a free paper each month or for a chance to win THREE images from the Pattie's Creations store. You simply need to follow the twist if you'd like a chance to win this month's featured digital paper pack, Foil Textures: Festive Colours.

Colour board from Designs Seeds

Don't forget to go and vote for your favourite from this month's paper set




I would like to add my card to the following:
