Gorjuss with BLINGS!

I got to make my first 'Gorjuss' card today! Seriously cute images :)


As always I coloured my image with distress inks. The only thing I don't like about these is that there are not enough colours! Tim needs to get working on that for me, lol.

See the cute little cubes of bling beside my image?? Well they are Pez-A-Blings... new and exclusive to Pez-A-Doodles.. go check them out. They come in all different colours and sizes too. Cute little pieces of candy for your projects ;)

The papers are MME Laundry Line and each sheet is glittered!! So, to tie it all together out came the stickles and I put a glittery frame around the image and sentiment :) The sentiment is, of course, a Studio G stamp.

Invitations

I was recently invited to make some Wedding Invitation samples, for display purposes. I couldn't see any reason not to (aside from the *mere* fact that I'd never done any before) so I gave it my best shot. These are what I came up with.


I made a couple more and am happy enough with all of them. Each invite came with a RSVP card.

(Just a quick tip... never tuck ribbon behind your card if you decide to do some last minute embossing with the cuttlebug!! ugh!! Live and learn, lol. )

Happy Birthday Edwin - Wednesday PDD

This is the card I made for my DT post :) ... using SOME of my favourite supplies!!! Tim Holtz distress inks to colour my image, Studio G stamps for the sentiment and *bling, bling* Stickles on Edwin's wings!! Love the Magnolia 'Edwin'.. perfect for boys cards!!

Now for something really exciting!! Check out the new PEZ-A-BLING over @ Pez-A-Doodles. They are just soooooo yummy and they come in colours to match every project! I know I'm sure gonna have fun with them ;)

BG Challenge (finally!!)

Well after getting it all wrong yesterday (see post below!) I made another card for the Basic Grey Challenge blog. THIS TIME I've used BG papers ;)

"Challenge 29 Easter/Spring Theme
This weeks challenge is exactly what it says on the box, hehe, we want you to create some Spring/Easter themed projects, and of course not forgetting to include one item from Basic Grey somewhere on your creation :)"

Ooops, I did it again...

....made this card for the BG Challenge blog... forgot I had to use BG somewhere on it!! Ah well, love how the card turned out anyway ;) And I just adore this Magnolia image, she's sooo sweet.


Back to the drawing board now.... ;)

Studio G Challenge 5 - SGC5

I made this cute Easter Treat Holder as part of Studio G's challenge. I love these Easter stamps!!! Check them out, and other Studio G sets over at Pez-A-Doodles :) You won't be disappointed!!

I did have visions of placing this little cutie in the grass, surrounded by all the lovely chocolate bunnies and egss to get a great picture.. but mother nature messed up my plans with typical Irish weather - RAIN!! So, my kitchen table it is ;)

Treat Holder Ingredients:

Papers - Making Memories : Flower Patch
Stamps - Studio G, series 26
Stickles - Lime Green and Crystal

My very first DT creation :) !!

I officially started on Pezadoodles DT today **YAY** My box of goodies arrived just in the nick of time too :) There was soooooooo much to play with but one stamp in particular caught my eye and I decided to use it for my first PDD Wednesday :)



The gorgeous swirl and butterfly stamp is an exclusive to Pezadoodles and I just love it!!! I used Brushed Corduroy distress ink for both the stamp and the edge distressing, and the little sentiment is from Studio G. And to finish off I added a touch of copper stickles to the edges of the little vellum butterfly - just to make him sparkle ;)

Check out the rest of the DT's creations on each of their blogs (links on sidebar!!)
