Have a Fairy Happy Birthday

I've been commissioned to do a fairy related birthday card.  Trust Saturated Canary to come to my rescue with the design.  The sketch is courtesy of Sketch Saturday...and so I am entering in their challenge this week.  I'm also loving the anything goes challenge over at I Love Promarkers.  Oh and it's a winged theme over at Dream Valley Challenges.

And finally - thought you might appreciate a pic of Kofi - aged 10 weeks today...

Red, white and blue...again

Skin of my teeth to get this one in over on Sketch Saturday.  I can see the wet glue and fear I've really stretched the original sketch for this one.  It's a Saturated Canary theme too and of course it's one of her lovely digis. 

Pearly Queeny

I had escaped the red, white and blue theme.  That was until the rain poured...and poured and found myself looking at Passion for Promarkers a little earlier in the week than I would normally do.  The mission was then on to combine their theme with Kenny K's Krafty Girlz challenge of pearls.  

Rain + the need for housework = card making !

The image is courtesy of Kenny K.  I thought with her hat that she looked a bit like she could be found in "Laandon town" (a bit of a London accent going on there.)

I'm not sure whether anyone wants to know what I used...I figure you'd ask.  I just have to say though...promarkers on white flowers is the business.

Thanks for popping by.  I never thought anyone would want to read my blog, not when the competition out there is soooo good.  You guys are an inspiration and even though I don't leave a comment...I love coming to see what you've been making.

Oh - and here's a picture of my pending arrival.

Introducing Kofi.  I shall be making a lot more cards to pay for him.

Doggone it - I done him again !

The same image used two challenges running - that's bad MissyB !  I do love him though...and in my defence I needed to make another dog related birthday card so I've done the proverbial with one stone.

I certainly need to improve my picture taking.  Anyway - over in to Sketch Saturday's challenge it goes.  Again a very nice sketch this week...and I've added a little artistic twist.

Collie Flower Power

Oh collie how I love thee !

I've entered this last minute over at Sketch Saturday.  Thanks SS - love the sketch.

May Flowers at last

Oh my - I've not done a competition card for a month....that's bad.  Just as we finally see May bloom...I get the urge to stay indoors and make cards.  Not sure that is quite right.

The following sketch was via Sketch Saturday. Sadly though I missed the right week for it as I didn't read the blog correctly.  It's still a nice design though.  I'm afraid it's only one challenge then.  That's over at Saturated Canary as it is one of Krista's lovely images.  I so love the red/black/grey thing that I am not sure if I could ever colour her in anything else.  

Whiter than White

Fancy Passion for Promarkers and I Love Promarkers having the same challenge this week.  White on White.  I've always admired the white cards but never been brave enough to design one...so I just had to have a go this week.  The sketch is down to Sketch Saturday.  Whilst I am at it...as it's a Kenny K image...I'll give their challenge a go too.  Kenny's Krafty Girlz gave a challenge of one image, two papers (I used two different embossed papers) and three embellishments (lace flowers, ribbon and gems).
