Good Morning. I can't believe how long it's been scince my last post- i've been so busy and very productive! The demo day went well and i showed people how to make boxes and cards and how to blend promarkers together so i was extremely chuffed!

I had a few goodies too including the new " spring fling " WRS papers ( which are gorgeous xx ) and a PJ stamp aswell as some embellishments of course!! So this card features all the new products. You can buy everything i've used on this card from Lyndsey at Lora Crafts- apart from the large pearls which i bought from an Ebay Shop. The ribbon is lush isn't it lol? I love the checked design and i just added it on top of the raffia for some added detail and texture.

Here's the gorgeous images and the promarkers i've used:

Vanilla, tan, cinamon, blush, pastel pink, pale pink, apricot, honeycomb, pastel yellow, blossom, pastel blue, powder blue, and meadow green.

Here are the challenges i'm entering my card into:

1. One Stop Craft: Swirls and pearls

I've also created a lovely little wallhanger with chipboard shapes and the yummy new Hampstead Range!! Which is full of autumnal colours- warm browns and oranges etc. which really work well with the Sarah Kays. This cutie pie has been colourd with whispers, waterolour pencils and pro-markers- so a bit of a mix.

Good Evening everyone, hope your all well. Gosh, just when the weather was looking on the bright side... it starts to rain! It's been sooooooo cold today... brrrrr, so i made a commisioned card snug and warm in my craft room/ bedroom ;D I've made an easel card for this weeks Creative Inspirations Challenge, and guess what- i didn't use a Tilda! :D I can't believe it; i'd become so addicted but i couldn't put my Anyas to the side and i've bought a few digi's recently and i LOVE them!

I've used my Basic Grey Sugar Rush papers again- so i can enter my card into this weeks BG Challenge too which is a photo inspiration. Another challenge my card fits into is this weeks Charisma Challenge which is girly- i think i qualify! lol. And Anyone For Anya- Lotsa Layers.

I've coloured this gorgeous Anya with Pro-markers and highlighted with my inkessentials white gel pen.

And guess what came on Thursday..... my personalised stamp!!!!!!!!!!! Wow, i can't believe it- i love it and i would recommend Nikki at Bunny-Zoes Crafts to everyone.... fantastic service- thanyou xx And here it is:
