Bunny with Daffodil

Morning all. Over at A Gem of a Challenge it’s the Pinks turn to host the challenge and we have a fabulous theme of ‘Favourite Colour Combo’. Now ask me this today and I’ll give you one answer and ask me again tomorrow and I’ll likely give you another answer! There are just too many colour combos that I love.

Anything with Kraft is always a favourite though so I’ve used orange and Kraft for this card using  Bunny with Daffodil:

2016 in Review (Part 2)

Evening all! Well that was a shock to the system. First school runs of the year and to top it off the weather was freezing!

Today I’m going to share July to December of my 2016 round up. You can find January to June here in yesterday's post.

July

One of my first few projects after I joined the DT for Polkadoodles was this cute card using Winston Bear Heartfelt and my favourite make from July:

August

This paper pad has already featured on my yearly round up, but paired with this Punch of Colour Girls image from Crafts & Me it has made my favourite card of August:

September

My favourite card(s) from September are these clean and simple (for me) cards. They were quite quick to make a little batch of, as they use digital elements from Polkadoodles’ Twiggy & Toots Festive Fun Download Collection:

October

Another month where Mr Mojo was running at 110%. There were quite a few cards I could have picked but this one stood out as I was so pleased with how the hair turned out. This is Aurora Prayer from The East Wind :

November

One of the few personalised Christmas cards I made this year was for my Mum and Dad and used this fabulous image Chilly in Love from Pink Gem Designs. This is my favourite make from November:

 

December

In a break from all the Christmas cards I coloured up some images that Nikky from Polkadoodles drew depicting the older lady….actually Old Bags…lol. This one is Revolting Kiss and is one of my favourite pieces of colouring for the year:

 

 

If you have done your own round review of last year please let me know in the comments as I would love to pop by and take a look.

Anything Goes at Sarah Hurley 365

 

As you read this I should be enjoying a nice little holiday in the Isle of Wight with the Hubby and children :-) and I’m hoping we are enjoying a little bit of Sunshine instead of all this rain we’ve been having.

Anyhoo it’s time for May’s challenge at Sarah Hurley 365 and this month it’s the nice easy theme of Anything Goes.

I thought the Feather stamp from one of Sarah’s A Few of My favourite things kits was perfect for a thinking of you/sympathy card. I have teamed it with some soft coloured papers and some simple embellishments.

Supplies:

• A Few of My Favourite Things Kit from Sarah Hurley 
• Stamps: Sentiments Stamps
• Inks: Brilliance ‘Coffee Bean’ and Walnut Stain Distress Ink
• Extras: White Acrylic Paint
• Embellishments: Doodling and UTEE Embellishments

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
