Another one for the playground

I have made another card using the sketch from Cardmaking Paradise.
This is an ideal way to use up all those little snippets that we manage to save!!
I am entering at

with love

This is the first time I have used this cute wee bear which was in a free set with a magazine. I stamped with Brilliance Graphite Black and heat embossed with clear EP. I used the leftover snippet from the last card that I made and layered it onto the green card which I embossed with my cuttlebug. Coloured with copics
I am entering the following challenges

Cuttlebugmania - clean and simple

A quick baby card that I made this afternoon, using some strips of different pink snippets.
Popping it into Pixie's Playground

Pretty in Purple

Here is another lovely image from Crafty Individuals, which I have stamped with Shades ink pad from Sweet Stamps - purple majesty. I think she is probably from the 1920's or 1930's.
I decided not to colour in the image, as I rather liked it as it is.I have layered it onto a torn piece of  japanese paper, and then a piece of lace, a piece of a doiley, a diecut corner piece, and a little fabric flower.
Challenges I am entering -
Crafts too challenge you - state the era or decade, and use 3 or more layers
Creative Creations - anything goes
Totally Papercraft - use lace
Have a great week

Tag #2

My lovely new JOFY stamps arrived yesterday (thanks so much PaperArtsy for picking me as a prizewinner) and I couldn't wait to try them out. I have made another tag loosely following Darcy's one, but some of the products I don't have, so it is all about compromise. The centres of the flowers are actually coloured with blue pearl (Promarker) but the scan has not picked that up too well.
I will slip this one into the challenge at
PaperArtsy

Tag!

I had some spare time this afternoon so decided to have a practice at making this tag.
The original is on a blog post at Paper Artsy, and when I receive my set of JOFY stamps, I will have another attempt. This one was all about using what I have!
I will add it to the challenge  at
PaperArtsy

Summertime!

Here is a quick card that I needed to make for a wee boy. I have embossed the yellow and the blue with an embossing folder, and then diecut the yacht in various colours and pieced it together. The 'hi' is also a cuttlebug folder. I added a little extra colour to the 'sea' and the 'summer sky'
