Circus Shaker

Morning All.

Where has the sun gone - it is almost chilly as I sit and type this post.

Anyhow, I have a nice bright and cheerful card for you this morning, ready for the new challenge over at Do It With Digi's. The theme this time round is........

I Can See Clearly Now.

This means we would like to see acetate or apertures on your cards - I have used both by making a shaker panel in the ball the elephant is standing on. The images have been supplied by our sponsor - Whimsie Doodles, who are offering the winner 2 images of their choice - plus all Do It With Digi fans are being offered 10% discount - check out the main blog for details.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges;

Pear Tree Design - colourful

Crafty Catz - childrens card

and

Creative Inspirations Challenge - digi day

Thanks for looking, and have a great long weekend :o)

Red, White and Blue

Morning Blogland.

Well kids are back at school, if only for 2 days before another 4 off, but hey they need to be broken in gently. Then a trip to the dentist to find out I need a filling, then home to find hubby cleaning out all the pond filters all over the drive - lovely. Isn't it amazing how he has time off once the kids go back to school lol.

Anyhow this card is ready for the new challenge over at Fab 'n' Funky - who have the theme red, white and blue this week. We are luck enough to be sponsored by Pink Cat Studio, who are offering the winner a selection of dig images as the prize.

I feel in love with this stamp last week - and simply had to have it - I had not realised up to then that the Gorjuss girl images were available as clear stamps. She is coloured with ProMarkers, which are available from my shop, as is the charm - and hopefully flowers will be coming soon.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges;

Pollycraft Monday - fun and games

Cute Card Thursday - no text

CRAFT - flowers

Crafty Catz - childrens card

Pattie's Creations - mothers day

Crafty Cardmakers - Royal wedding

and

Creative Card Crew - childs play

Thanks for looking, and I'll see you again in a bit with my second DT card for the day.
