A Christmas Tree Fairy

 Wow, this year has gone by so quickly. We're all another year older and I hope it's been a happy year for you all and if not, I wish you all the best for the coming year. It's been an up and down one for me.

So.... onto the challenge this month at 613 Avenue Create.  It's Anything Goes with the Optional Twist of "Any Winter Holiday"  I've chosen Christmas for my card.

Here it is. Accented with Kindyglitz to give her some bling!

Thanks for stopping by and hope to those who celebrate Christmas have a wonderful festive season.

Happy Birthday Carnation Card Challenge 5 The Crafty Addicts

Challenge time at The Craft Addicts! Time to get those creative juices working and come over to the challenge blog and enter some of your creations. We'd love to see them. 

I've chosen this little carnation stamp and a die from my stash for the topper on my card. I hope you like it.

I'm afraid I had great trouble getting a good photo as the gold Mirror cardstock has changed colour in the photo. It is definitely all gold not yellow or black as it appears here in different sections of the card. I also added a solid diecut in gold behind the white diecut so the gold can be seen shining through in real life.

Don't forget to pop over to leave an entry or two in this month's challenge and if you have time I'd love to see some comments here on my blog. Would appreciate any positive feedback.

Thanks for dropping by, take care, Hugs Sandy DT member The Crafty Addicts Challenge Blog

Car and caravan

 Hi, it’s time for another challenge at The Crafty Addicts. I’ve used a patterned base card from a box of kit cards that a friend gave me and I’ve added my own bits and pieces to create my finished card. The car and caravan are from a free set of stamps with a magazine purchase. The clouds and sentiments are from another couple of stamp sets in my stash. I die cut the strip of black.

Here’s the card pic….

Well, that’s it from me today, hope to see you entering the challenge this month. My fellow DT members and I would love to have you drop by our blogs and leave a comment..

Take care,

Summer time.... 613 Avenue Create Challenge

 Time for another challenge...hope this finds you all eager to create and enter the June challenge at 613 Avenue Create with our Anything Goes Challenge with the Optional Twist of Summer time/Living is easy! 

Our sponsor for this month is Polkadoodles Stamps and Papercraft and here is what I made from one of the images.  I've partially cased this layout from a pin on Pinterest but have left out some of the layers that were on the pinned card. I though that I didn't need anything extra as I've added little tiny diecut clouds.

Recipe - Hello Honey and White cardstocks, Paper from Kaisercraft. Sentiment from SU stamp set and image from Polkadoodles. 

It's a very cute image, don't you think? I'd love to hear what you think of my card, so please take the time to leave a comment and don't forget to check out the other DT blogs when you pop in to add your entry/entries for this month.

Thanks for stopping by,

Let's Stencil

 Hi everyone, I've once again been missing in action. A few family issues making me feel not so good, but just need to learn to let go and focus on what I have and who I have in my life...

So... thought I would get myself together and get my projects done and blogged for 613 Avenue Create.

April's challenge is as always an Anything Goes with an Optional Twist....the twist this month is - Let's Stencil. I've used a stencil that had a few different sections on it to do the background on my card.  This is what I created.....

I've used Pacific Point and White cardstocks. Stencil is called Textures from Seven Paper Dolls, Tim Holtz distressed inks and Visible Image stamp set - Jake Skates.

Hope you pop over to the blog and add an entry or two and please check out all the DT creations and stop by our blogs to leave an encouraging comment. They will be very much appreciated.

Take care, 

Hugs Sandy, DT member 613 Avenue Create.
