Rudolf

Good morning crafters,
 
I hope you are all enjoying your weekend.  My internet saga continues (Day 9) and i am still borrowing my neighbours (so grateful or i would be climbing the walls by now!).
 
Anyway, i am not here to complain about my internet, i am here to let you know about the fab new challenge over at the 2 Sisters Challenge Blog today.
 
This is Challenge # 117 and the theme is: Use Your Favourite Christmas Stamp.
 
The sponsor is: The Crafting Boutique.
 
 
 
For my card, i have used this adorable digi by Bugaboo. It's called Rudolf - tree and you can find it here. He was a 'Friday Freebie' when he came to stay with me! I coloured him with copics and the papers are from the Authentique 'Festive' collection. The snowflake is a Martha Stewart punch.  I layered it for depth and added Ranger Tinsel to add sparkle. 
 
 
Challenges i am entering:
 
Crafty Catz Challenge Blog #158 Anything Goes
Sweet Stampin - Anything Goes
 
I hope you will pop over and view the beautiful DT inspiration at the 2 Sisters Challenge Blog and it would be great if you joined us in this challenge.  Looking forward to seeing your projects soon.
 
Take care.
Hugs, Jill x

I love Edwin!

Hello all, the weekend is almost over and the days are getting warmer, 27 degrees today yipee! Boy, the weekends go so quick though, don't they? Anyway, i must say that i absolutely love my new Tilda and Edwin stamps and couldn't wait to get my first Edwin inked up so here he is. I was actually making a Tilda card, stamped her, coloured her then made a hash of cutting her out so she went in the bin which meant it was time for Edwin to make an appearance!

I would love to enter my card into the following challenges:
