Wot no.......

papers?

Hi blogworld,

Well this one took a while to work out!  It's Thursday which means a new challenge over at Moving Along With The Times, our Teamie Sue picked the theme of 'No Design Papers'.  Arrrggghhh!!!  How can I cope without my PP's??  I did it but I'm not over pleased with how this one came out - it doesn't look like it did in my head, but I'm there!

Here you go - see what you think.

I used:

Stamp:

The Greeting Farm - Miss Anya: Hats Off

coloured with my ProMarkers

Dies:

Anything else?

Just a pen for the doodling

 I'm sure that everyone out there will have much better ideas than me - I'm looking forward to seeing them.

Cheerio
Sarah

A challenge, or two:

I love Promarkers: Challenge #192 - Anything Goes

SimonSaysStamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes

Being a Diva!

Good morning blogworld,

Thankfully 'the big storm' completely bypassed us - might have been a bit breezier than normal but apart from that no problems here.  Nothing like I remember from when I was at college many, many, many years ago!!  Although, obviously, you've got to feel for those who were affected, especially those who have lost loved ones.

Moving onto happier thoughts and today's card.  Which is for Digi Choosday at Polkadoodles and we are looking for those projects for a 'Fashion Diva'.  There was a fab response to our first challenge and I'm not surprised with all the marvellous creations my Teamies made.  No exception this week either - you should see their really amazing creations.

This is what I made:

Slightly skew-wiffy shot:

 I used:

Digi Image:

Emma Canning - Prom Day
coloured with my ProMarkers

Dies:
Nesties - scallops
Marianne - umbrella

Digi papers:
Sugar Boys
Heart to Heart

Anything else?
Wild Orchid Crafts - flowers
from my stuff - lace and chipboard sentiment.

Something different for me, eh!  Next time I make a round card though, I will try to get it to sit straight!!

Do try and pop over to the challenge - would be lovely to see you there.

See you soon,

Sarah
