Hello again everyone!
Next up today is my card for the colour challenge at The Paper Players.
I embossed the floral egg from Simon Says Stamps’ Easter Joy set and coloured it using my Twinkling H2O paints.
I added it to an embossed card base and added a Memory Box sentiment to complete my card.
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Easter everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge where the theme is ‘add texture’.
Using a Creative Expressions stencil , I applied texture paste across my card base and added a Memory Box egg and just a peek of the cute Simon says Stamp Peeking Chick die.
The sentiment is also from an older Simon Says Stamp set.
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Saturday everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Color Throwdown which has a fabulous combo of pink, rust and green.
I decided it would be a fab combo to use for the Simon Says Stamp Doodle Eggs background stamp. I loved this stamp since it came out in 2018 but couldn’t justfy the purchase, so when it popped up in the Steals and Deals section last year, I managed to grab it. I coloured it with my Twinkling H2O paints and added a sentiment by Creative Expressions.
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Sunday everyone!
It’s been quite a while since I played along with a CAS Colours and Sketches challenge, but I finally had time this weekend!
I have to confess that I have taken a rather wide interpretation of the sketch with five eggs representing the five vertical lines in the sketch! But it was so fun to make, although it turned out to be a lot more fiddly than it should have been really! I used a Simon Says Stamp branch die which had built-in hangers for hearts an presents but of course, I had to cut the ‘hangers’ off the branch because I wanted to put the hangers for the eggs somewhere else…. and then I positioned the large egg too low ehich meant that my Waffle Flower hanger wouldn’t reach… I got through a lot of glitter paper making a longer one! Argh!
The eggs are by Poppystamps and the sentiment is by Clearly Besotted.

Happy Saturday everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
I had all sorts of ideas for the sketch when I was looking at the challenge last night and then this morning I woke up and created something completely different!
I used the Hampstead Oval Frame die from Poppystamps to frame a set of cute bunnies from the Simon Says Stamp Oh Bunny stamp and die set.
The sentiment is by Taylored Expressions.

Hello again everyone!
Next up today I’m playing along with the Color Throwdown ! The combo this week is perfect for Easter cards – so I decided to make my first Easter card this year!
I snapped up a few Easter bargains in a Simon Says Stamp sale last year – including the fabulous Filigree Message Oval. I’ve been waiting a year to use it and it was worth the wait! I die cut the image twice – I removed all the tiny die cuttings from the first image, which I coloured yellow with distress ink. I left all the leaves, petals and dots in place on the second image and just coloured them with alcohol markers before adhering the yellow oval on top – much easier than inlaying all those tiny leaves and petals!
The sentiment is also by Simon Says Stamp and the background is embossed with eth fabulous Spellbinders Flower Frenzy embossing folder.
Thanks for stopping by!
