Fork Lift Fred Removals

I made this card for a family who are moving from Belgium to Cyprus and I presumed that they would have a lot of stuff to ship!  Using Fork Lift Fred, coloured with Promarkers and some rather posh (yet were a bargain!) papers I had in my stash.  I handwrote the signs and added some key charms too.

Song In Your Heart

Here is the first of two new releases from Jellypark - Song In Your Heart - and the sales from the stamp will be donated to Breakthrough Breast Cancer.  So you are not only getting a fab digi stamp for a very reasonable £1.25, you'll also be supporting a very worthwhile charity!

There is also another stamp that is raising funds too and I'll blog my creation in a few days - drip feeding the Jellypark goodness!

I've coloured the image with Promarkers and added a little glitter glue and liquid pearls here and there.  Papers are Samantha Walker - Retro Roadtrip and I've added two Sizzix heart dies and a random flower and brad I found in my stash which as luck would have it, matched the colour scheme perfectly!

A bit of faux stitching around the edges of the card and its complete!

So go on, treat yourself to a Jellypark digi stamp (and a few more!) and help to raise funds for Breast Cancer - October is Pinktober just in case you didn't know!

World Card Making Day 2012

Today is World Card Making day and to celebrate Claire at Jellypark is offering a time limited freebie - go to the Jellypark Challenge blog to snag it - and here is what I've made with it!

It comes with a sentiment but I found I didn't have enough room to add it!  I've coloured the image with Promarkers and used one of my fancy X Cut dies to cut it out, adding a dotted fineliner around the edge.

The papers are Samantha Walker - Road Trip and I've added some faux running stitch around the edges of the papers plus some ric rac ribbon, half pearls and a wonderful crotcheted flower from Dottie Red.

The sky went very wrong on the image but I don't think it looks too bad now - sort of blends in with the theme of the papers, a kind of shabby chic sky!

A busy day ahead - Jacob has a cadet kart session then we have to hot foot it to his football match in Accrington, 10am kick off and then both boys have a football party to go to later in the day.......  We've had really heavy rain and hail overnight so I'm not sure if the football match will still be on as the pitch is probably not in the best state!

Jellypark Challenge - All About Children

It's time for a new Jellypark challenge! The theme this fortnight is:

All About The Children 

I've used (for the first time!) this fab digi stamp called Follow Me and all proceeds from the stamp (and other Little Havens Stamps) will be donated to Little Havens which is the charity of 2012 for Jellypark. The stamps are only £1.25 each so they are worth every penny!

I've coloured the image with Promarkers and cut it out so that the larger flag looks like it is being waved around!  The papers are Samantha Walker - Retro Road Trip and I've added a faux stitching around the edges.

Buttons and twine are from my stash.  I couldn't think of a sentiment (or be bothered to stamp one!) so I've not added one although I can at a later date.

There are also two new release digi stamps which I'll do my best to remember to blog over the weekend!  But if you can't wait to see them, have a look on the challenge blog as they will be on there too!

I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Crafting For All Seasons:  For A Child
Diva's By Design:  Friendship
Digi Makeover:  Buttons
Fashionista Challenge:  For A Child
Kaboodle Doodles:  Music, Dance or Any of the Arts
