Ericraft Stamps - "Party Blower Llama" and "Party Sunglasses Llama"

These are the links in the Etsy EricraftShop for these two great digital stamps.  I have reversed one Party Blower so the blowers are facing out and cool dude Party Sunglasses Llama has wriggled his way into the middle, like a real poser, has to have centre stage lol.  Llamas are in fashion in the craft industry at the moment, but I  do remember my grand-daughter, Verity having a t-shirt on last year that had the saying "No prob llama", so I knew I just had to use it on this card.

Ericraft Stamps "Be Seated"

Have you checked out the EricraftShop over at Etsy lately?

Here is some inspiration for one of the latest digis "Be Seated"  and guess what it is still at the newly released price.  Grab it now, before the price changes.

My card base is a square pearlised white, with some designer paper in my stash, as well as grey/white twine, a Martha Stewart heart punch and red sequins of course.  I coloured the image with Copics.  

Don't forget Ericraft Stamps also has a Facebook Group.  Stop by and see us sometime.

The Outlawz Festive Friday Challenge - Anything Goes

SheepSki Designs - March Blog Challenge "Your Favourite Colour/s"

If you are a frequent visitor of my blog, you may have seen me mention my favourite colour before, or even guessed it by the colours I sometimes choose.  It's funny how whenever you don't know what to do with your project, you often gravitate to your favourite colour.

  This month for the Blog Challenge "Your Favourite Colour/s" I have designed a Planner Pocket Pages Divider.   Towards the second half of last year, I started playing around with a planner, thanks to a very good cyber friend of mine.  Well this year, I have progressed a bit more, taking the decorating  a bit more seriously, hence this project.

Front of Pocket Page 

Back of Pocket Page - for the  little pocket showing the bird quote, I have used We are 3 Bird Songs digital paper.

and of course in my Planner

The SheepSki images I have used:

Curvy Katarina

Serenity

Butterfly Curl

Don't forget if you are interested in any of these images or for that matter any of the others on our Etsy shop, you can use this discount to get 10% off your total.

I also hope you join our March Blog Challenge with the theme being "Your Favourite Colour/s".

I will be entering the following with this project:

Holley's Blog Challenge

In celebration for her 9th year of successful brain surgery, Holley Tondre Barnhart is running a challenge in February on her blog with the help of Sandra Caldwell discounting three of her images.  The first one I have chosen to do is 2427 Party Panda.

For this card I have used a Birthday embossing folder and the leaves rectangle behind the image is actually cardstock covered in leaf washi tape.

Tiddly Inks Blog Challenge #222 - ATC Fun

I haven't made an ATC for quite a few months, so when a friend alerted me to Tiddly Inks current challenge , I decided to give it a go.  I chose Bloom Beautifully - Emma to use on my ATC.

Ericraft Stamps - "Selfie"

Ericraft Stamps has a new release stamp in the shop called "Selfie".  As I am now into trying to organise my life with a planner, I decided to make little reminders to pay our phone bill.  I have a Happy Planner Classic planner and decided to make them big enough to fit in the weekly pages rectangles and with a little repositionable adhesive I can move them from month to month.

This stamp is at a special price while it is a new release, so don't miss out.  If you would like to keep up to date with Erica's new releases, please join our Facebook Group.

SheepSki Designs February 2019 Blog Challenge "All you Need is Love"

For the inspiration for our February 2019 Blog Challenge theme "All you need is Love",  I chose Little Heart.

This image has been very popular with our team, along with Ready for Christmas.

I also added to the card Flutterby, an earlier image from Andrea.  I came up with the sentiment myself, thinking this would be a nice card for a small boy to give to his Mum for Valentine's Day or anytime for that matter.  I used some washi tape, a bit hard to see in the photo because it is a shiny gold and black.  I also added a small Aussie business, Charms Creations.

I hope you enjoyed my inspiration for "All you Need is Love" and be sure to join in on our Blog Challenge in February.
