A Little Reminder...

There is still time to join in the fun of the All Dressed Up Blog Hop & the chance to win some fabulous images :o)  I little while ago I posted a pic of an elephant I made using one of Wendy's digital images (you can see the post HERE) & I tweaked the pattern a bit & here is the 2nd elephant (It's still a bit lumpy lol but I think elephants are a bit lumpy ;o)  I used an old scarf for his body & some scraps of fabric for the ears.

I hope you're all having a great week.  Thanks for looking xx

Don't Forget...

to join the latest All Dressed Up "Anything Goes" challenge :o) You do need to use Wendy's fab images or papers BUT don't worry if you haven't got any you will find some fab freebies HERE, so there is no excuse to join in the fun ;o)  (& there is the chance to win 3 images of your choice too!).  I so love making things & mixing and matching crafts & when I made a card with the "Tall Like You" Image I thought I'd try & use the elephant as a pattern for a soft toy or cushion & this is the result.  He is a bit wonky but it came out better than I was expecting (I have tweaked the pattern to make another one & will blog that when it's finished).

Challenges:
Craft Your Passion - Anything Goes  
Not Just Cards - Anything Goes
Lil Patch of Crafty Friends - Anything Goes

If you didn't know there is also an All Dressed Up Facebook group too so we would love to see you there.  I hope you've had a lovely Sunday (though they do tend to go way too quickly lol)

Back to Nature

This week the challenge at Jellypark Friends is "Back to Nature" & I used this cute "Squirrel - I'm Nuts About You" digital stamp which I coloured with ProMarkers.  I used some Kraft card & muslin fabric, the sentiment & flowers all come with the image :).

The challenges:

Card Makin Mamas - Anything Goes

Pixie Dust Studio - Looking For Leaves

I Love ProMarkers - Cute

Stamp n Doodle - Let's Add Some Material

Crafting For All Seasons - Falling Leaves

 As it's Friday there are 2 fabulous new digital images released at Jellypark & I thought I'd try & used the Giraffe image as a pattern to make a felt toy/decoration & I was quite pleased with how it turned out :)

I'm really glad it's Friday, 5'oclock can't come soon enough for me!  I hope you've all had a good week & enjoy the weekend.

5 Challenges :-)

I've had a great day off today. I got a sewing machine for my birthday & have been playing with it :-) This card is made using Designer Digitals "Little Tea House" papers & I used my new EK Success punch (also for my birthday) for the border which I stitched to the card & I sewed a button to 2 punched flowers. The stamp is from Cuddly Buddly & was a present from my darling little granddaughter Abigial (I think she had a bit of help ordering it lol) & the card is finished off with a greeting, brad & a bit of Glamour Dust.

This card fits 5 Challenges:
Carol's Sketch Fun - Sketch
Cute Daisy May - Texture
Flutter By - Butterfly or Fairy & Flowers
Simon Says Stamp - Stitch it Up!
Stamp Something - Favourite Colours or Papers (well I love these papers & green is my fav colour closely followed by pink & baby blue)

I also made a tote bag & I am really pleased with it (ignore the material lol it is an old pillowcase - I didn't want to use decent material for my first attempt).
