One for the Kids- Cute Card Thursday




One for the kids for Cute Card thursday . Another great digi image from Kenny K. I can not wait to make some more cards with their digis but I need to go and do my chores and a bit of Christmas wrapping, shopping and preparation first. My girls loved this digi and they also chose a girl with a guitar, a girl with an ipod and a movie star. Have a great day, x Amanda

Colour Create Plum and White

I have joined in at Colour Create's Challenge which is plum and white. I got this image from Kenny K digis, her name is Luscious Linda. I am going to try and colour another one of her today in reds or blues. My daughter chose this image and I thought I don't think so but when looking at the card gallery at Kenny K's she looks really good. There are so many great digis out there, people are so talented. xAmanda

Papertake Weekly

Over at Papertake Weekly you need to make a birthday card for somebody with a birthday around Christmas. My husband's birthday is three days after and we usually don't do much at all for him. I wouldn't like to have my birthday so close to Christmas that's for sure. I made this card for him but will probably make a few more before his birthday and then decide. I am new to copic markers and am loving colouring in with them, they are quite addictive so any excuse to make new cards will do. THanks for looking, Amanda xx

Stamp Something

I have made this card for my friends daughter, gorgeous little Martina. I have nearly finished all of my Christmas cards which is very late I usually have them all out and sent by now. I have entered this card in Stamp Something's Digi Challenge. I can not remember where this image was from but it is very cute, I will have to go for a search and edit this post later to tell you what it is. Well off to make dinner and probably a birthday card for my husband who is out for dinner tonight. xAmanda

Digital Tuesday Challenge





It's a Sparkly Christmas at Digital Tuesday Challenge and I needed to create a small card/gift card for my husbands secret santa present. The person he has to give to is a 30 year old female so I decided this reindeer games digi would be good. I added a little sparkle to her nose and champagne and a couple of red sparkly brads. Thanks for having a look, Amanda.

MOjo Monday Sketch and Card Patterns sketch





I only purchased this cute little guy Francis this morning from Digistamp Boutique, isn't he cute. My daughter loves penguins and her favourite colour is green so I thought I'd practise with greens on these cards before I make something special for her. I have followed Mojo Mondays sketch on this first card.



And I have used the same digi and colour combo on this second card for Card Patterns sketch. I love Stampin up's green galore and taken by teal but both have been taken out of the new catalogue, such a shame. I am making cards this morning to keep myself calm as I'm off to see Bon Jovi in Brisbane tonight and am getting very excited. x Amanda

Baby it's cold outside






At Digital Tuesday Challenge it is Baby it's cold outside, which is great because I decided to make Christmas bon bons this year and these two friendly snow men are for my nephews. I have found an easy way to make bons bons now and I am very excited as I can personalise everybodys. For the children I am putting flashing Christmas badges and Magical Elves chocolates and for the grown ups lindt balls, christmas ear rings and christmas wine glass rings. Hope you like them I have different ones to post tomorrow.

Colour Throwdown/Mojo Monday




I made this card for the Colour Throwdown challenge red/pear/choc chip or kraft these are not the exact colours but closest I had to work with at the time, also Mojo Monday sketch challenge. All card, ribbon and stamp from Stampin UP.

Stampin for the weekend/Papertake weekly





I made this card for Stampin for the weekend recipe challenge but as I wrote down the recipe I also drew the sketch from Kates beautiful card thinking it was a sketch to follow as well. I love the colours turquoise and purple together so I have also entered in Papertake Weekly challenge blue and green not to be seen. THanks for looking, Amanda

Colour Create Challenge


I have made this card with the colour scheme over at Colour Create, beautiful robin egg blue, foamy sea green and cream. I have used all stampin up products except for the clourung in I used copics. I have also made some smaller versions of these cards and I am hoping to sell them in a pack of 3 for $5 in the staffroom. My friend and work colleague is spending some of the Christmas holidays at an orphanage in EAst Timor so I will give her the money from any card packs sold, fingers crossed.

Mojo Monday


Well I am loving my holidays, making sure I get some craft time in everyday. I have made a boy birthday card today because I found some new papers at spotlight. I have been dissapointed lately with the lack of variety in papers at the local craft shops so I was pleased to find alot of new ones last visit. I have followed the sketch at Mojo MOnday, I might try making the round version of it tonight for my nephews first birthday card. Today I am off to MOvieworld with six children so I am definately going to need some craft time to wind down tonight. Enjoy your day. Amanda
