Happy St David's Day! As it's Thursday, there is a new Challenge at CRAFT Challenge and it's this great sketch: You can turn it round but we have to be able to see the sketch. My card uses Magical Princess by Digital Paper Craft. I added sparkle to her dress and Glossy Accents to her crown. The paper is Petticoats and Pinstripes by Echo Park. The sentiment came with a magazine freebie and I added a little stamped heart between the words. The ribbon and gems are from stash. Our sponsor this week is the fab Digital Paper Craft Go and see how my teamies have used the sketch and be inspired! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

Good morning! We have an Inspiration Challenge at CRAFT Challenge this week. We also have our DT CALL so make sure to check it out! Here is the lovely Inspiration Picture, it's a lovely, tranquil scene: I took the colours of the sky, the sunset and the fence as my inspiration: I ink-blended the sky and added dots of a glitter gel pen tor stars. The 'clouds' are made by drops of water, which bleached the ink. The fence is made with a die from Whiff of Joy and the grass with a die from Lawn Fawn. The image is from clip art by our sponsor Digital Paper Craft. Have a look at my teamies' creations to see how they were inspired by the picture, they will give you some great ideas! Thanks for looking. love Mags B x

Hi, guys! I hope you're all having a good week! We have our regular Christmas Challenge at CRAFT Challenge . The adorable image is Christmas Angel from sponsor Digital Paper Craft. I added folds to her pretty gown with my Copics and I'm rather pleased how it turned out! I added clear Wink of Stella to her wings, halo and star. The papers are from Nitwits' Still Joyful Hearts digi papers. The sentiment is by Lawn Fawn from the Ready, Set, Snow stamp set. The sparkly Ikea ribbon was an RAK from my daughter and the pearls are from stash. Our sponsors: Star Stampz Digital Paper Crafts Thanks for looking! love Mags B x

Good morning! Christmas is only 2 months away! To help with your Christmas crafting we have our regular Chrstmas Challenge at CRAFT . Our fab sponsor is Digital Paper Crafts I have used this adorable Drummer Boy he is so sweet! The papers are from an old magazine freebie and I cut 2 sheets into triangles to echo the pattern on the drum. The snowflake is by Avery Elle and I added glamour dust to it for some sparkle. The green bakers twine also has a bit of sparkle, though it doesn't show in the photo. The gold-embossed sentiment is by Lili of the Valley . I added dots of a white Pearl Pen in two of the corners, and Glossy Accents on the drum. Have a look at the inspiration that my teamies have created, and get stuck in! Every card made now means one less to be made in a panic in December! Thanks for looking! love Mags B x
