week 154 for a man


Good Morning!

I hope the weather has been better where you are than it has been here although if your in the UK I highly doubt it this week lol!

This week at Allsorts its Helene's turn to set the challenge she would like to see a card for a man/boy I was os happy when i saw Helenes challenge as it was the perfect opportunity to try my new stamp from Crafters Companion..


Isn't he cute sleeping in that trainer, the sentiment which I have coloured in comes with the stamp and I know it will get a lot of use especially for Jack's cards

Papers - scraps and the red gingham is from Craftwork cards
Stamp - Crafters Companion
Candy - Craftwork Cards

Enjoy your weekend!

Black and White

Good Morning

Saturday again and that can only mean one thing time for this weeks DT card for Allsorts
this weeks our sponser is DIGI STAMP BOUTIQUE and the challenge is from Jo and she would like to see black and white creations


Bit of a challenge this week not to use any colour as such but this fab image from Digistamp Boutique helped a lot I tried to keep the layout simple with a punched border strip and the polka dot ribbon Which I could not photograph to look white no matter how hard I tried lol

I hope to see you over at Allsorts with your black and white creations
