It´s spring time over at CRAFTY CATZ

Hi Peeps

Hope you are having a great Friday,

I´m having a busy but great Friday,

It´s soon time for a glas of wine and some colouring or maybe some reading time, I picked up a new number of Quick cards today.

But first I want to tell you about the new challenge over at

CRAFTY CATZ

this week our fabulous and talented Dianne

picked the theme

SPRING TIME

We are lucky to have the fantastic

Rick St. dennis with us as sponsor

Prize: 3 images of winners choice.

I have used one of the images so kindly give to our DT.

I hade so much fun making this card, I added lots of die cuts, buttons, pearls, flowers, butterflies but kept the colours to brown, yellow, white and green.  Sort of like when it starts to grow in the soil again at spring time, right?

I have coloured with ProMarkers. The sentiment is a freebie from Create with TLC. Thanks Paulette!

Please pop over to Crafty Catz to see all the other girls wonderful spring creations and join our challenge, we love to see what you make...

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs Nick

little horse, called...


Bucky

This is what I made:

I have coloured the image with ProMarkers. My dd claim that there aren´t any yellow horses but I think he looks fab in yellow.

I tried to use only brown and yellow papers to create this little scene for Bucky. I used a few different dies. Two boarders - grass and mushrooms, the tree and owl, the leaves and last the scalloped circle I used for the age on the birthday kid.

I have again made a Birthday card. I used a sweet stamp called Fleur from Pollycrafts rubber stamp collection, you can purchase it here.

I colour with ProMarkers. The Stickers says Congratulation in Swedish.

I have played along with this sketch over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday. It looks like this:

I have used papers from the same pack as last week, called Bella from Wild Rose Studio. This time I picked the one coloured ones. Stack them onto a purple cardstock. I used a little butterflie stamp from a set called New Heights by Gorjuss Girls and stamped a pattern on the purple paper. I also embossed it once on purple cardstock using white embossing powder. 

I punched out the flower boarder. It´s a Martha Stewart punch. To make it match the butterflie I doodle with a white gel pen on top of it.

This is how it looks inside as well.
