Zoology

Hello All

It's time once again for another new challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz. The theme this week is 'Something Beginning With Z'.

I must admit I really struggled with this, and in the end I have just used a downloadable decoupage from Crafts U Print, which I have simply matted onto a backing once I'd done the decoupage.

I do hope you like my cute little zoo card.

Thanks for stopping by and I'll be back soon with some more creations.

Man's Best Friend

Hello Everyone

Here I am again with my next DT card for Cardz 4 Guyz. This week we would like to see your 'Man's Best Friend' male orientated creations.

This was quite tricky for me, as I  must admit  I am much more of a cat person than a dog person.

I looked through my stamp collection, and was struggling to find any that fitted the theme and inspired me, so instead I thought I'd do a punch art creation, inspired from Pintrest.

All the stamps used are from Stampin' Up, and I have used a stamp from the Glorious Grunge set to add the spots. I hope you like my little doggie, and he inspires you to join in the main challenge.

I would like to enter my creation in the following challenges;

Ike's World - embossing

Tuesday Throwdown - embossing

Craft-Dee Bowz - anything goes with a handmade bow

Creatures and Critters - anything goes with a creature

Incy Wincy - texture

Creatalicious - anything goes with no DP

Paradise Of Stamps - a touch of Kraft

Alphabet Challenge - F for furry friends

Crafty Catz - dies and punches

and

Crafty Ribbons - it's a mans world

Thanks for stopping by, and I'll be back soon with some more creations.

Dig It

Hello All

Well it's a very busy week this week - my youngest son turned 13 at the weekend, and my eldest is 18 on Wednesday, so it's all been a bit hectic at the ranch.

Hence I have done a very quick card for this weeks challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz, where we would like to see your 'Dig It' themed cards. This could be gardening or 60's/70's dig it saying or digging for treasure or however you wish to interrupt it.

I have used a very old DoCrafts backing sheet for my card, with some PaperNation decoupage and a simply sentiment to finish. Considering how quick this card was to make, I was quite pleased with the outcome.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges;

Creative Card Crew - anything goes

Lemon Shortbread - anything goes

Through The Craft Room Door - anything goes

Crafting From The Heart - anything goes

Our Crafty Corner - anything goes

Amusing - anything goes

and

Crafty Friends - in the garden

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you will jump on over to the main blog and join in the fun,

See you again soon.
