Less is More - Red, White & Blue

Long weekend has finally arrived, kids packed off to their dads and I have sat and watched films and played with bits of paper and felts all day..................heaven!

Really don't know why I put myself through the Less is More challenge each week as I struggle with it every time and this week has been no exception.  The challenge is to use red, white & blue, which I actually did last week for the shaped card.  As I watched Barbara Gray this morning I thought I would play with some of my Clarity stamps again although not that keen on my creation.

As usual I have my rejects, will no doubt be used some other time.  Have not been able to pull anything together today but still have enjoyed playing :)

Hope everyone is having a fab Jubilee weekend and thank you for stopping by :)

I ♥ Promarkers - Use a Digi

Wednesday again, roll on the weekend and a long one at that.  Youngest son went off to PGL today with the school until Friday, house is feeling a little strange with out him around.  He was so excited about going and I know he is going to have a fab time but I will be glad when he is back.

This weeks I ♥ Promarkers challenge is to Use a Digi and this fabby image is from Bugaboo. Coloured her with Promarkers and the sentiment stamp is from Papermania and also coloured with Promarkers.

The papers are from DCWV and used my die cutter to make the flag and present.

Hope everyone is looking forward to a great Jubilee weekend, fingers crossed the weather holds :)

Less is More - Not a Square

Well it has been another scorcher of a day and been stuck in an air conditioned office all day, don't know if thats a good or bad thing. Although could do with it now in my craft room :)

Bit late with the Less is More challenge this week, but the weather has been so nice have been spending time in the garden.  This weeks challenge is NOT A SQUARE or a rectangle.

Afraid I wasn't to imaginitive with this card but wanted to do some straight forward stamping with these Clarity stamps I have had for a while.

Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather and long may it continue.

Thank you for stopping by :)

Kenny K - Design Team Call

Well Kenny K are have a Design Team Call and normally I would just admire the entries and think my cards would never be good enough, but today I decided what the heck lets give it a go :)

I love all the Kenny K images and have quiet alot of them already and was lucky enough to win the blogaversary challenge, which made my collection even bigger, although still not used some of them tsk tsk.

Haven't blogged this card before and made it for my sons 18th back in April.  Used the very hansom Teen Idol and coloured him with promarkers, copics & prismas.  Papers were a freebie I think with a magazine, had them a long time, and bits and pieces from my stash.

Here is a selection of other Kenny K cards that are scattered through my blog :)

Thank you for looking and thank you for the opportunity :)

One Layer Wednesday 88

Well while I was having a mooch through Chrissie's blog from Less is More she had entered a card into One Layer Wednesday, so as I find these so challenging but love the idea of them I thought I would give it a go.

Your only allowed to create in a 2" square, so I created a mask and sponged some colour onto the back ground and stamped a clarity stamp and some kanban stamps to create the scene.  Think it needs a sentiment but couldn't find anything suitable or even where I would put it.

Thank you for stopping by :)

Less is More - Baby or Child

Another weekend and it's raining, so much for spending some time in the garden, but at least I get to do some crafting :)

This weeks Less is More is to create a card for a baby or child, spent ages again going through stamps trying to decide what to make.

Coloured this cute LOTV image with Prismas and used a spellbinder die on the image and sentiment.  Used an embossing folder on the corner and thats it for another C&S card :)

Thanks for popping by today and enjoy your weekend :)

I ♥ Promarkers - Anything goes

It's Wednesday again, 2 more days until the weekend - woohoo.  Looking forward to a quiet one and some crafting :)

Managed to get some time to do some blog catching up and this weeks I ♥ Promarkers challenge is anything goes, so had a bit of a mooch through my cards as I have photos of  lots of cards I haven't managed to blog.

This card I made for one of my nephews and used images from bugaboo coloured with Promarkers.  Paper is just plain card and used an embossing folder on the one piece and added a few stars and thats about it.

Hope everyone is enjoying their week and thank you for stopping by :)
