1st DT card for Crafty Catz

Good morning all,

 

Yay! Today is the day! My first DT project for Crafty Catz is here!  Yep, there is a new challenge over at Crafty Catz and the inspiration from the DT is fabulous. Please pop over and give them some love. 

 

The theme this week is: St David's Day (He is the Patron Saint of Wales) so you can make anything you like as long as it contains a Dragon or a Daffodil.  Easy, right?

 

There are two fantastic sponsors.

 

Pink Gem Designs are offering one lucky winner 3 digis of their choice.

 

 

J&C Creations are offering a £10 gift voucher.

 

 

 

I was delighted to receive this super cute digi 'Denny with Watering Can' from Pink Gem Designs to use on my card. You can find him here. I teamed him up with some DP from Echo Park 'Dots & Stripes' collection, added some layers, some ribbon, some buttons, a sentiment and a bow.  Voila!

 

 

Challenges i'd like to enter:

 

Simply Create Too #32 St Patrick's Day (or use mostly green)

 

Thank you for taking the time to visit today. Also, extending a warm friendly welcome to my newest followers.  I hope you all have a great weekend. 

 

Hugs, Jill x

 

 

 

 

Worlds Greatest!

Good morning crafters!

I hope you are all well. Today i want to share with you, a layout i made of my fabulous Mum and Dad mashAllah.  I took this photo of them last summer when we visited a Heritage Park and when i saw it, i just knew that it was going to end up in my scrapbooking album!

Anyway, the paper i chose is from Echo Park Dots & Stripes collection (Peony small dots) and the colour is a perfect match for my Mum and Dad's top and shirt.  I dont think they realised at the time that they were matching! The tree with the two little birds is from Dusty Attic and i coloured it with Tim Holtz distress inks and added some pink pearls for a touch of glamour.  The die cuts are from Tim Holtz.  The flowers i made using a Sizzix Bigz 3d flower die and the tags were cut out from another Echo Park paper which i think is called This and That. Oh and the title is wooden words from my stash that i coloured with distress ink.

That's it! What do you think?
