Tuesday Twosome


A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge

We have a brilliant sketch for you this week on ASFS, it looked very daunting at first but I ended up really enjoying working with it. As usual we have great cards to share with you from my fellow Dt Divas, hope you can come and join us.



This is definitely going to be a well used Christmas image this year, it is one of the new High Hopes Christmas stamps available from Bunny Zoes Crafts, what a great collection they have produced this year. It was an ideal stamp to 3d I am really pleased with how it turned out. I have used Copics again and of course more of my beloved Nitwit collection download papers.


Recipe:
Stamp - High Hopes "Let Us Adore Him" available Here Sentiment Whiff of Joy available Here
Papers - available Here
Colouring Medium - Copics




Sketch Saturday Challenge and
Lili of the Valley DT Card

There is a great sketch by the lovely Mina this week on Sketch Saturday Challenge, thank you dear it was nice a simple but effective. The fabulously generous Heidi from Simon Says Stamp has donated a brilliant prize again, so I couldn't resist entering this week, especially as it gave me a chance to introduce you to these lovely new stamps available to pre-order from Lili of the Valley, they will be released on the 22nd August.

There are 5 new collections of 4 stamps, each stamp costing an unbelievable £3.50 I would really hate you to lose out on these little sweeties so just click Here to take you straight to the pre-order page.



This stamp is called Swing Time and is one of the 4 stamps in the Little Girls Collection by Annabel Spenceley, isn't she gorgeous, I have again coloured her with Copics and I bet you cannot guess what papers I have used, lol!!
