Whimsy Inspiration

Just a quick post from me this morning as Wednesday is Toddler group and then a visit to my parents.  I have had some of the fabulous digi images from Whimsy’s June Release coloured up for a couple of weeks but the dreaded colds have been bouncing between me and this children and this is the first chance I have had to get a card made up.

This card uses the fabulous Morgan from Fairy Dust Images…

I have coloured the image with ProMarkers. The background has been stamped and inked with a Inkadinkado Jewelled Flourish Stamp and Mustard Seed/Dusty Concord Distress Ink. The sentiment is from Whimsy and has been die cut with their Notable 2 die. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Naughty blogger, this post was scheduled for 8am yesterday morning but it seems it never posted, so here goes.

Morning all. Hope everyone has a lovely weekend planned. We are off out today for lunch with some friends and their little boy and tomorrow I’m hoping for a crafty day.

Waffle over it’s time for a new challenge at A Gem of a Challenge this weeks theme is:

Father’s Day/For a Man

 

I’ve used one of Janet’s fabulous new Andy images Andy with Frog. Here is my card…

My image has been coloured with ProMarkers. My papers are from the Simple Stories ‘Summer Fresh’ 6x6 pad. I’ve used dies from Memory Box and MFT. The sentiment is a magazine freebie and the scrabble tile stamps are from Whimsy. I’ve also used a blue doily from Dovecraft, some doodling with a black fineliner , a few tiny pearls (couldn’t resist even though it’s a mans card) and a touch of glitter glue.

Extra Special Birthday Wishes

Morning All. Think I need another weekend to recover from my weekend of painting/building a children's wooden playhouse, bumps and a cut on my head and a sleepless baby with a cold!

Anyhoo, enough waffle. Some one very special has a birthday today…

We are having a little DT Blog Hop to celebrate Sarah’s Birthday, so Happy Birthday Sweetie. While I’m at it I would also like to thank you Sarah for everything you do, all the fabulous goodies you produce and we get to play with and most of all for putting up with us ;-)

I have used Craft Artist to create a Digi Card using Sarah’s fabulous Gatsby Digi Kit (I just love the colours in this kit).

Sarah your next stop on the hop is Candice and then Sharon.

For anyone else that has stumbled upon this hop and would like to celebrate with us please start at the beginning on Claire’s blog and pop by Sarah’s Facebook page and leave some birthday love.

Summertime at Pink Gem

 

Afternoon all.  I’ve got a bit behind and I don’t seem to have time to catch up so just a quick post from me. Also I’m just having a few minutes rest as I bumped my head on the cupboard door about half an hour ago and I’m now the owner of a nice egg shaped lump and a throbbing headache.

Over at A Gem of a Challenge this weeks theme is:

Yesterday we had a BBQ for my sisters birthday and today I’m just having a lazy day. I’ve been a little poorly recently with a sinus infection and got a little behind with blogging so while the Grandparents are playing with the kiddies  I thought I would try and catch up a little.

Anyhoo, it’s time for a new challenge at PCJ and the theme this time is…
