Two in one MMSC3

I have just found my sentiment....hope this looks ok

..hugs sassyx





Hiya...bit of a late one..but have messed around tonie and getting nowhere fast...this is my entry into midnight madness..again on a vintage feel..love vintage and have used the same design as my pony except using the lay out on the challenge and off centered the portrait slightly..again the sentiment..you will have to imagine ....finding it hard to get the right verse.which will be under the flap on the main card ...this design came around by cutting the bottom off a A4 size card folded.cut into a square .i was putting it away together for matting and layering and it sorta looked nice together so my donkey design was born it was the first and i quite like the idea of two cards in one...would like to know what you think..it also gets decorated with the coordinating papers on the inside to finish..and on the back of the image you can write your personal message leaving the other intact..if you get my drift lol!!! well Ive waffled on....... so thanks for viewing and of course comment appreciated ...... ttfn hugs me lovelies

Sugar Bowl entry


Hiya...just wanted to share this with you yet again lol!!!! went for a good browse ans found this gorgeous card on Judys blog i though how fantastic this card is and i really loved her colouring and overall card stunning ....so as i havent any inks..i grabbed a pencil and coloured and shaded in pencil and added glamour dust to give it softness........i used the layout also with papers from blueberry designs.flowers from stash ribbon from ribbon oasis
and a pin with pearls added metal had to be included so the brads from PM are metal and also the pin..i think will fir the requirements. i think the challenge was over at Sugar Bowl may well send it now its finished ....overall im not too overboard on it but its cute in a cutish kinda way lol!!!so thanks Judy on the inspiration i hope ive done it reasonably well....thanks girlies for popping in your comments are so truly accepted and means so much ttfn xxx

vintage purse MMSC1.2nd entry







would like to share with you my take on a vintage purse...with a twist..inside is a smaller version of the midnight madness challenge too....the same Lay out but on a much smaller scale...so i hope its *working outside the box*...i have done this before to send atcs as a extra special gift.....cut out free hand pattern...Gosh me brain still works then lol!!!!! and covered with papers from paper mania...never really liked them but in a strange way i did...how do you explain that eh,,,wont even try ...covered with old broken earrings as the clasp with a added Bow from stash rhinestone brad from paper mania ????? I think ???? (did i just say i had a brilliant memory lol!!!)
...cut outs from the oval punch in card stock edged in brown from colour box....and from my collection of vintage two lovely girls..cut oval .love these two so angelic...flowers and Velcro fastening from stash......and another old piece if jewellery necklace i keep in my bit box...love rooting through that.alot of my embellies were from my atcs days too...so have acquired lots of cheap bits from everywhere on the high street and then broken up especially it was a sale item sometimes worked out cheaper than buying from crafty places......im so thrifty ...not ..well i hope you like it i quite like it now the fiddly bits are done...thanks for all the lovely wonderful comment so humbly accepted....ttfn...xxxx

And they lived happy ever after



Another card to share with you...and i think it might fit a challenge is aw earlier but need to find it lol!!!! so will have to update ..once Ive found it i was on the right track doing it as a just another card for the box...when i saw Rica's blog....mmmam sure it was so will have to investigate to see if this fits the bill........had a grueling afternoon.....one i hope not to do again...will spare you the details but it has left me so knackered..pooped and out of mental energy......ooops had a swear there sorry if i offended anyone reading ...back to the card had this image sent IN a birthday bundle and played with the pro markers....i glamour dusted the wings..and added loads of muted colors..I'm not good a colouring in critters..i get them too dark...but quite pleased with this end product...I'm so low on sentiments...so scored my bit box and found the sentiment...think it would be nice for a unusual wedding...what yer think!!!?....i coloured the back bit what maybe you can just see with pressing my colour box onto the paper...as the boxes are leaf shaped and added a tiny pink flower backing papers the pink flowery stuff from blueberry hill and ribbons and flowers from stash.......just found it its sunday challenge from stamptacular .

going for a gander to see if its ok...thanks for popping by...you are all my poppetts... xx
