A Spoon Full of Sugar - Challenge 123 - Spots and Stripes

Our challenge this week at A Spoon Full of Sugar was chosen by our own Joanne and she has asked for Spots and Stripes.

We are sponsored this week by Melissa from Meljen designs and she is kindly offering four of her digi images to one lucky winner. You can check these out Here at Whimsy Stamps.

Melissa kindly also gave the DT some of her gorgeous images to work with this week and I have chosen to use this super cute Cowboy Teddy. The papers are by K&Co and I have followed the sketch this week at Cute Card Thursday


I hope you get some time to look out all those spots and stripes and have some fun with us this week.

Belated Birthday Card

I had a major panic on last night as I had forgotten to send a birthday card to a good friend. I was scrambling around last night looking for an image to get a quick card done. I came across this cute freebie image from Meljen designs that I had downloaded a couple of weeks ago - really quick and easy to colour, but looks great I think. The papers are all from a freebie MME pad that came with a magazine some sime ago and I have used a sketch from Nutcrafters a couple of weeks ago. I cut the little flowers with one of my retro flower punches and added a bit of stickles for a bit of bling.


This card is now in the post - don't think I have ever had to get a card done and posted quite so quickly ever!!

Have a great day.
