Flowers - Sweet Stampin

So today over at Sweet Stampin our new challenge is 'Flowers' (with an optional sketch).  

We are sponsored this week by Stamp Galaxy and I used a super-cute snowman image from our monthly sponsor, Heather Ellis.  An absolute breeze to colour! :)

Im really enjoying making frosty christmas cards atm, and used MME free papers, snow white glitter card, MS snowflake punch and poinsetta dies.  The frosty frond branch was cut on my digi-die cutter, and the double-die mat was Nellie Snellen.

Thanks so much for looking at my blog today, and I hope you find time to play along with this weeks challenge,

Sweet Stampin DT Card - In The Garden

2nd Post of the Day

Awwww :) Aint she cute?

So, this week our theme on Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog is 'In The Garden', and we were given some super-cute Heather Ellis images to play with as our weekly sponsor.  I think I smiled the whole time I coloured this in :)  Our May monthly sponsor is Joanna Sheen so there really is some fabby prizes as well as some gorgeous inspiration from the rest of the DT over on the blog.

This card was quite quick and simple.  I hand-stitched the DP, used my favourite new spellbinder die to frame the image, and the sentiment is from an LOTV stamp set.

I will be entering this card in the below competitions:

One Stitch at a Time - Anything Goes
Cupcake Craft - In the Garden
Papertake Weekly - Bloom and Grow
The Stampman - Recipe - Stitches, ribbon, dies
2 Sisters - Use a digi

Thanks so much for looking at my blog today, have a great weekend,
