Good Morning!!!

It's a lovely bright start here in East Yorkshire, just glad it's not as hot as it was earlier in the week.

Can you believe it's the 1st July?  So that means it's time for our next challenge for you over at Sparkles Christmas Challenges, and this month it's really time to get all sparkly with Gill's challenge theme...

GLITTER

The DT have been sprinkling their glitter for some wonderful inspiration for you which you can check out over on the challenge blog and here is mine.....

This month we are being sponsored by.....

with a £10 voucher to spend in her store and we are also being sponsored by...

with either 5 digi's or 4 digi's and a paperpack for one lucky winner.

I have used on my card a Holly image from Robyn's Fetish coloured with promarkers and sakura pens for a subtle glittery sheen, then mounted the sentiment onto red glitter card.

We do hope you can join us for this months challenge.

Sparkles Monthly Christmas Challenge

Can you believe it's June already??  Where is the time going, flying by it seems.

Well it's the first day of the month so that means it's time for a new montrhly challenge over at SFCC, this month it's all about...

SNOWMEN

....as chosen by Lesley.

We all love an adorabloe snowman or two in our Christmas crafts, I know I do.  You'll find lots of snowmen inspiration from the DT and here is mine....

I was running well behind on my DT stuff to get done before my holidays so I've just done a simple tag, coloured with promarkers, chalks and sakura stardust, it really does sparkle lovely but unfortunately the camara couldn't capture it.

Joanna Sheen is sponsoring this challenge with a £10 voucher for the winner to spend in her online store. We do hope you'll be able to join us for this months challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!!
