It's been a while!

Wow, it's been so long since I've been here. I had to reset my password because I had forgotten the old one lol. I have made a card for Mo's Challenge Blog. I've finally finished my 'Project 365' so now I'm going to have a bit more time for scrapbooking layouts and cards. Cards are not my strong point, and I seem to have lost my mojo somewhere too... but anyways, I decided I had to start somewhere and since Mo's digital stamps (they can be found here) are so cute I thought I would give this weeks challenge a go. The challenge was special folds and flowers and as you can see I have both :-) I must admit this card took me forever!!! Since Project 365 my skills have seem to disappeared too. Oh well... hopefully with practice! Anyway, just a quick post as I must run and get Evan from kinder. Have a great day!

Another easel card :-)

Yes, I have managed to make my second easel card using an image from Wink Wink Ink. Now I've actually put it in a few challenges. The first one is for Crafters Digital Art Center. This is a new sight that brings together a whole heap of digital stamping retailers... I'm not sure how I stumbled upon the sight, but I'm so glad I did as I've been getting a bit tired of wandering around the web aimlessly trying to find some great digital stamps. For their first challenge all you have to do is use a digital stamp by one of the designers on the sight... easy! Ok, I also entered this card on the Scrapbooking Allsorts June challenge. Their challenge is to use charms and I've used two on the ribbon... I'm not sure I qualify for this challenge as I haven't used any products from the store ( I just put my first order in today). Finally, by some stroke of luck I have also put it in the latest challenge for the Wink Wink Ink store. They asked for at least two of Water colouring, Inking, Nestabilities or Punches and Kraft Cardstock. Yay I used a border punch and inked the edges!!! Well I better go and see what michief my boys are getting up to. Thanks for stopping by.

Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge

Okay, so here is my second post, yay! This is a card I made for Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge. The challenge was to use his stamps to make an easel card. Now this is my first ever easel card so it's not overly complicated but I am happy with how it turned out, and even happier to know how easy they are to make. I'm a bit of a fan of Mo's stamps, his got a great range... and so cute! The funny thing is my card never made it to the challenge because I just forgot all about it and I was too late... oh well lol Thanks for looking :-)

My First Post!!!

Yes... I have finally taken the plunge with a blog. I'm not really much of a talker so I'm not really sure how I'll go with this... and I'm not very organised, so the posts may be rather sporadic too. However, I do enjoy scrapbooking and (oh so slowly) moving into the world of stamping and cardmaking... and I also enjoy a challenge! So many challenges these days require you to have a blog to enter... so here is my blog! Ok, so I'm going to jump right in and enter my first online 'blog candy' give away. It's for the online store Scrapbooking Allsorts which have lots of yummy goodies. I haven't actually put an order in... yet lol. Now I'm not sure, if they're still there, as I haven't been in quite a while... but I did pick up some bargains from them at their stall at the Geelong Show Grounds... why I haven't been there in so long is a mystery! Okay, to to enter all I have to do is show a pic of their candy (YUM!) and a pic of my latest creation. This was actually completed a few weeks ago at a scrapbooking retreat. Yes it's my latest creation... so sad. It's a pic of my youngest looking so grown up with his cute vest on... until you notice the dummy lol.

I have plans on completing a card soonish for another challenge. I have recently discovered Copic Markers and digital stamps!!! Loving digital stamps at the moment... cheap, reusable and take up no space what so ever!!!! Thanks for visiting xoxox
