Allsorts challenge 24....Furry Friends

Good Morning hope everybody has had a great week and ready for the weekend!


This weeks challenge over at Allsorts is Furry Friends and we are being sponsored by the fabulous Wild Rose Studios..

The DT were given some beautiful Christmas images to play with (what a treat!!!! ) and they really are just fab to use.......


I used this adorable Reindeer, the papers were from a goodybag I received whilst over at Embsey at the Samuel Taylors 60th birthday extravaganza there was so much in there including these fab crimbo papers although sadly they had nothing on them to say where they are from!!

Pop over and join us for the Furry Friends Challenge at Allsorts

MDPC #3 not a card....

This is my entry for this weeks MDPC this week the challenge is to not make a card ...






I made a mini milk carton to use as a seed container, I used Ben and printed him out smaller than I usually would so he would fit better in my circle punch and layered him on some corrugated card and then onto a scallop of K and co some self adhesive ribbon and a cherry charm to finish off the ribbons.....

Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge

This is the card I made or the MDPC they have asked us to make a card using colours remind you of Fall and only 2 embelishments to show off Mo's images.......


I used this adorable image

'Bronte and Louis'

The 2 embelishments I used were 'handmade' cookies simply punched circles coloured with promarkers to try to match the one in Louis' hand, I tried to make it look like Louis had chocolate cookie round his mouth.....'mucky pup!!..... and I loved the brown stripe in this paper and with the brown tones in the cookies this was my Fall colour :)
