Allsorts - Baby animals

This week at Allsorts it is my time to host the challenge and I set the theme to Baby animals. It can be any kind of animal as long as it's a baby :). And for those of you who are wondering - a human baby is a no no, animal babies only!
I made a round gift tag using the image Bently and bunny from Digistamp Boutique.
We have a gorgeous prize from Rare Earth Stamp up for grabs.

Allsorts - sweet treats

This week at Allsorts Susan set the theme to Sweet treats. I used a bonbon stamp that I borrowed a long, loooong time ago from a friend, I only had one stamped image left so I sort of freestyled it by hand to get three images on watercolor paper.  Then I coloured, cut out and fastened them on kraft card. It looks a bit too much CAS for me so I will probably add the name of the receiver in die cut letters (as soon as I know who the receiver will be, hehe).


We have a lovely prize from Marianne Design this week.

Allsorts - Insects, bugs, bees and butterflies

Time for a new challenge at Allsorts - this time it is to feature bugs, bees or butterflies on your creation.
I used lady bugs from Magnolia and made a gift tag. I coloured them with distress ink and put glossy accents on the hearts and stickles on the lace (why there is lace on a lady bug I have no idea) but you can't really tell from the photo, you just have to take my word for it :)
We've got a lovely stamp sheet from Rare Earth for a lucky winner.

Allsorts - Happy Birthday


Morning all, time for a new challenge at Allsorts and not just any challenge, it is our 9th Birthday challenge.

The theme is of course

Happy Birthday

Anything to celebrate a Birthday; a card, journal page, gift bag or box, something you are giving as a gift. So many options and we look forward to seeing what you create.

A special Birthday deserves some special prizes and we have nine of them including a store voucher from Craft Obsessions, that's one for every year.


And....................Brenda even says there may be a few more winners drawn as well, over the months a few prizes have gone unclaimed so this seems like a perfect time to send them to new homes

My DT contribution is a card with embossed background, decorated with ribbon in teal and silver, quite fitting for a male I would think. The lighting of the card is horrible, I know, luckily the brighter - and warmer - season is here at last to make photographing easier :)

Allsorts - In the pink

This week at Allsorts it's Susan's turn to host and she chose In the pink as a theme. 
I made a gift bag, die cut the upper edge, made my own coloured paper with distress inks in Victorian Velvet, shaded lilac and Tumbled Glass and sprayed it all with perfect pearls. I hade to glue the pearls to make them look casually spread :)
