Friends (Joanna Sheen DT card) ...

Well time for another challenge on the Joanna Sheen Challenge blog 
and this time the theme is 'Flower Power'
Now we crafters all love to use flowers to embellish our
projects so this should be an easy one!

My card has been made using the gorgeous House Mouse Flower Power decoupage
and I just love this image, I love them all actually, hehe!
I have used some gingham paper from the Papermania Capsule collection,
matted onto some 'what I call' Cadbury colour paper from my local Payperbox.
Hand stitched, ribbon, ladybird, button, gems and twine from my stash.
Heart charm from The Ribbon Girl.
Sentiment is from the delightful Jane Shasky CD
I have coloured the bottom layer of the decoupage with Promarkers
which is what I usually do with stamped images but it works really well on
these decoupage sheets too, super smooth
and layered up using Collall Glue.
Here is a close up of the many layers and plenty of cutting!

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges -
Creative Craft Challenges - Animal Antics (I won First Place & GDT)!

Make sure you come and play along with us for this one, we have a daily 
talent spot, weekly blog candy and goodies for the winner.
We now host challenges every fortnight so don't miss out.

Take care, Jane x

Spring Wishes ... (Joanna Sheen DT Card)

This month over on the Joanna Sheen Challenge blog the challenge is 'Easter/Spring'
so lets hope with the theme comes some lovely weather too!
---
I have used the wonderful Jane Shasky CD set full of delightful goodies.  I have chosen some beautiful
backing paper for this one.  Some white cardstock which has been embossed, both hand stitched
in contrasting cotton.  This beautiful stamp has been decoupaged for extra depth and coloured
with Promarkers.  The sentiment is CG, heart pin, seam binding and pearls from stash.

We had a fabulous response to last months challenge and we hope you will come and join
us once again.  Some fabulous prizes up for grabs, weekly candy and a daily talent spot too!
We are building up our tutorials and this month you will find how I made this very card.

I love you more than cheese ...... (Joanna Sheen DT Card)

Time for the next challenge over on the Joanna Sheen Blog  and for the month of February 
the challenge is titled 'Love is in the air'.
---
I have used the gorgeous House Mouse decoupage pack called 'Just the two of us' which is 
jammed packed full of adorable little mice. 
I have taken this image from a wedding sheet and just used the groom for this one!
A few firsts for me on this make, my first decoupage using a Collall glue gel kit, 
my first 6x6 easel card, my first House Mouse decoupage and the first time 
I have used the fabulous Memory Box die called  'Cherised Border' available here.
The sentiment is computer generated as I don't have a stamp for this one?
The paper is from a free cd from a magazine a while back produced by Docrafts.
Still loving my hand stitching so this one has plenty!
Great entries again for January, some fabulous creations from you all and we hope you
can join again this month with fab prizes and blog candy up for grabs.
If you don't have a blog, don't worry you can still join in here.
So it can be for Valentines, Anniversay, Wedding, Engagement or just to let someone
special know how much you love them.

Don't forget we are having a call for a additional DT member here which is open until
15th March and the lucky winner announced shortly after, so what are you waiting for?
