Allsorts - Anything Christmas

Time for a new challenge at Allsorts. This week the theme is Anything Christmas. This is one of the invitations I sent out to daughter and nephews about a ginger bread house making contest we're having next week. A cute recipe-stamp as focal point.

And I also have a card using Sketchpad Snowman Hat from our sponsor A Day for Daisies. The sentiment is computer generated using the font Storybook. 

Allsorts - Christmas tree

Time for a new challenge at Allsorts. This week the theme is Christmas tree. So I made a clean and simple card made mainly with dies. It's really quick but turns out nicely so it might be something of a favourite this year :)

Allsorts - creature

Time for a new challenge at Allsorts. This week the theme is Creatures.

The adorable owls are a freebie from here. Backing paper is a wrapping paper and the shape of the card is from a temple online somewhere (can't remember where) and cut out with scissors the old fashioned way :)

Allsorts - Time

Time for a new challenge at Allsorts. This week the theme is time or clocks.

I used an embossing folder and just decorated it with a white ribbon and a ribbon buckle. Clean and simple since the embossing really stands for itself.

Sponsor this week is Hobby House.

Allsorts - Let's make a start on Christmas

This week the theme at Allsorts is Let's make a start on Christmas. Never too early for that! The backing paper is actually a piece of wrapping paper, I have it in both grey/white striped and red/white striped and I just love it. And I think it makes the PB snowman really pop out.

Allsorts - Sparkle

This week the theme at Allsorts is Sparkle. The challenge is for me not connected to making things sparkle, it's to make it show on photographs :).
So this time I used a really blingy golden ribbon to be on the safe side. Cause even though I used lots of glitter on the hat of the Penny Black snowman it doesn't really show - but the ribbon does :)

So do join our challenge this week and may you be more skilled than I am in making the shinies show.

Allsorts - Pink October

This week the theme at Allsorts is Pink October. I made a wedding card using a Lili of the Valley stamp and Magnolia backing paper. I used the last of my feathers so I must try to get hold of new ones cause I really like the effect.
Ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons, our sponsor this week.

Allsorts - Autumn colours

This week the challenge at Allsorts is Autumn colours. I just love the warm and vibrant colours of the season but this time I went for more earthy colours with white flowers and a vellum stamped sentiment.
It's starting to get rather cold here now, we've had frost several nights. So it's nice to pack the bags and go to Barcelona tomorrow. Me, a collegue and four students are going there for a week as part of an Erasmus project at the school where I work. :)
