Hi everyone!
Today I’m playing along a new-to me challenge, Hand Stamped Sentiments using products by Penny Black.
I cut an ink-blended panel using a die from the dainty dashes stackers set (51-636) and then coloured a couple of the Cherry Blossom die cut images (51-419) using my Twinkling H2)s and prismacolor pencils.
Finally I added a sentiment from the Thinking of You clear stamp set (30-825).
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi there!
Next up today, I’m playing along with the sketch challenge over at CAS Colours and Sketches.
Such a unique sketch this week! I had so many ideas but in the end I pulled out the fabulous birdhouse dies that I got as a free gift from My Favorite Things, coloured them with distress ink and hey presto, today’s card. I’m not sure though…. I may have gone overboard with those pink birds….. what do you think?
Then sentiment is also from an older MFT set.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Poppystamps challenge where the theme is flowers and butterflies! Two of my favourites! I can’t believe I only saw the theme at the end of the month – the challenge closes tonight so I made it just in time!
I used quite a few dies from my Poppystamps collection: the main image is the Blooming Branches Sidekick frame and stencil set, then I used the Dervyn Butterfly Trio and Emelia Butterfly Trio. Finally I added the freehand Happy Spring sentiment – althoughit has been super warm here today, technically it is still spring until mid June after all!
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Friyay friends!
Today I’m playing along in TWO challenges hosted by Simon Says Stamp – the May instagram challenge where the theme is ‘favourite technique’ and the Wednesday challenge which is ‘anything goes’ with Simon Says Stamp products being showcased.
I decided to make another mini slimline card using my current favourite technique of die cutting. I used the Simon Says Stamp Sweet Tulip die and a stamped sentiment from a 2012 SSS set called Flower Friend.
The sentiment is also by Memory Box.

Hello friends!
Today I’m playing along with the current sketch challenge over at The Paper Players . I used dies from the fabulous new Sue Wilson/Creative Expressions Elegant Arrangements, coloured with distress inks. I cut the vase from some of my patterned paper mountain. The sentiment is by Sugar Pea Designs.

Hi there!
I don’t think I’ve played along with the My Favorite Things sketch challenge since October, and having been inspired by this week’s sketch, I decided to play along!
I created a couple of stencils using my circle dies and gently blended some distress ink. Then I cut and coloured die cut shapes from the Dienamics Houseplants die set.
I arranged all the die cuts on the background before adding an stamped sentiment from the MFT Essential sentiments set and a few mini sequins.
Thanks for stopping by!
