Good morning friends. I hope you had a fabulous weekend? It's Monday so that means we have a new challenge for you over on the Pollycraft Challenge Blog. It is our lovely Lou's turn to pick our theme and she wants us to show some of our favorite things. So easy, right?
Since one of my favorite things is snowmen I decided to use this adorable Swings and Slides Merry Christmas - Snow Buds image. I colored this cute couple with copics and colored pencils. I added some of my very favorite Glamour Dust for some sparkle. I'm also very fond of snowflakes, pearls, and ribbon so those got tossed onto my card too :) These are just a few of my favorite things. If I added all of my favorites I would have to make my card about 12" x 12" just to hold them all lol!
We are being sponsored by the fabulous Crafty Emma's Store and she is giving away a voucher to the challenge winner. Be sure to stop by the Pollycraft Challenge Blog to see all the fabulous work by our wonderful DT. I hope you create something with your favorite things and join in our challenge this week.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful week.
Hugs, Anita

Good morning friends. Today I'm a guest over on the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge. I have been a big fan of Karen's challenges for the longest time and a few weeks ago I finally was able to play along in their sketch challenge. Well, I received an email from Karen asking if I would like to be the very first Guest Sweet Sunday Stamper. I was so excited and of course I jumped at the chance to play along with this team of talented ladies! So here's my card for the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge SSSC151.
I used this adorable little Heidi from Sylvia Zet's Wee Digi Stamps. I colored this cutie with copics and colored pencils and added some Glamour Dust to her outfit, the falling snow, and the ground. I added some snowflakes and pearls to finish off my card. I hope you like it.
Here's the sketch and you can find all the challenge details over on Karen's blog. Be sure to stop by all the Sweet Sunday Stamper's blogs to see what they've made with this week's sketch.

Hello all! It's Monday so that means we have a fabulous new challenge for you over on the Pollycraft Challenge Blog. It was our lovely Mary J's turn to select the theme and she has chosen Warm It Up (keep warm, warm/hot colors, anything that makes you feel warm).
I used Sonny Honeycloud - Lifes a Beach for my warm it up card. Oh how I wish I were somewhere nice & sunny so I could wear an outfit like hers lol! I used copics and colored pencils and added some Glossy Accents to her sunglasses. I applied some Glamour Dust Ultra Fine Glitter Paint to the sun to make it sparkle. And since Sonny is all dressed up for the beach I thought this sentiment would be perfect for her.
We are being sponsored this week by Crimson Cloud. Be sure to stop by the Pollycraft Challenge Blog to check out the fabulous projects by the rest of the DT. I hope you play along with us this week.

Happy Saturday friends. Are you managing to stay warm wherever you are? We are having extremely cold weather and snow so I'm staying indoors where it's nice and toasty. We have a new challenge over at Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog and the theme is "Thank You".
I used Bunnies Summertime for my card and colored this cute scene with copics and colored pencils. I used glitter paint on the butterfly, Liquid Applique on the bunny tails, and Liquid Pearls on the mushrooms. My lovely crochet flower was handmade by the sweet and extremely talented Arabella. I was the lucky winner of her recent blog candy and it included quite a few of these beautiful flowers. I'm quite proud of myself for using the flower instead of hoarding them lol!
Our latest challenge is being sponsored by Michelle's Scrapbooking and More. Please be sure to stop by Di's DigiDesigns Challenge Blog to see the gorgeous makes by the rest of the DT. You'll find all the challenge details there too. I hope you play along with us in our "Thank You" challenge.

Hello friends. Over the holiday season I did a little shopping for myself -- well, you know, just in case Santa got busy and forgot to pick up some of the things on my wish list :)
This is Winter Fairy Talva from Mo's Digital Pencil. I fell in love with this sweet image as soon as I saw her! I colored her with distress inks and used Glamour Dust, Distress Crackle Paint, and Glamour Dust Ultra Fine Glitter Paint to make her sparkle and shine. I thought this would be a perfect card for a friend with a winter birthday.
Thank you so much for stopping by.

Hello friends and happy Monday :) We have a new challenge today over at Pollycraft. Our lovely Jane has chosen the theme this week and she wants to see anything but a card.
I decided to make a little mini pizza box and fill it with candy hearts. I used Spencer's Bucketful of Love to decorate my treat box. I colored this sweet little bear with copics and colored pencils. I painted Glamour Dust Ultra Fine Glitter Paint on the hearts and used Glossy Accents on his nose. I wrapped a ribbon around my treat box and added a little felt heart with a button.

Happy Friday friends. It's been quite a while since I posted. I intended to take a little break over the holidays, but then my mojo went missing so I've been gone longer than I planned. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and got lots of crafty goodies from Santa :)
We have a new release over in the StampFairy shop. This cute little snow couple is called George and Friends. I used copics and colored pencils, along with plenty of Glamour Dust. I added tiny little pearls for the snowlady's buttons. I followed this week's sketch from the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge Blog.
