I thought you might like to see what you can do with the new Time Machine range from Kanban

A few Die cut gears and clock faces were added

So what do you think of these?

Winner of Craftroom clearout candy #3

2012-01-30T15:37:00.000Z

Good afternoon. I have reached 340 followers and as promised I have a winner.

The winner is

Tanya......................................................My Scrappin and stampin corner

Congrats Tanya. Please send me your address and I will send your candy out to you. Can you also confirm that you are happy about me sending you a Paypal invoice for a contribution of £2 towards the postage.

Thank you to everyone who left their views about me asking for a contribution to postage. I have sent out so much candy recently and still have a lot more to offer but, the cost of posting was getting out of hand.

I am only asking for contributions on the larger heavier candy NOT the small ones

I will post more candy later this week.

Candy ends 3rd February or when I reach 340 followers whichever comes first.

Also, I feel I am being a bit cheeky here, but I have spoken about this to some of my blogging friends.
How would you feel if I was to ask for a contribution towards the postage for these larger candy wins, say £2.They have been costing me about £5+ to post. I realise that this may put people of entering but with the economy the way it is I love to give stuff away but the cost is getting a bit out of hand. Perhaps you can leave a comment about this in the comment box and please feel free to be as honest as you want

Keeping it simple

Keeping it simple

Saturday means another challenge at Totally Gorjuss. You might like this one.

The sponsor this week is the wonderful Lili of the Valley

So no need to worry about embellishments etc

So here is my DT card. I should have put a picture of me on!!!!Very Simple!!!!!
It is my first ( and probably my last!) attempt at colouring on Kraft. My only excuse(s) is that it was late at night, not good light and I was tired!!!!! I think I need a lot more practice at this.

Can't wait to see what you do

Hugs Sarah x

2012-01-27T17:31:00.000Z

This is a card made recently. It is shame you can't really see the beautiful backing cardstock I used. It is embossed band glittery, really lovely. I used a Magnolia Banner stamp and stamped "Just Because" on it.

The flowers were from Wild Orchid Crafts

This card is for sale in my Etsy shop

I hope you have a great evening. Keep warm

hugs Sarah x

So Gorjuss in blue

2012-01-25T20:41:00.002Z

I made this card the other evening from one of my many inked up and coloured images.

I have used my new Magnolia Doo Hickey heart die

I hope you have a lovely evening

Simon says stamp - anything goes

Creative Inspirations - Anything goes

Notebook - custom order on my Etsy shop

2012-01-24T20:36:00.000Z

I have been busy making a customised notebook that was ordered in my Etsy shop,

This one was a challenge as the customer wanted a particular image ( drawn by her boyfriend ) on the cover and instead of plain sheets inside she wanted another hand drawing on each page but light enough so that she can write on the page.

I hope she will like what I have done.

I have also made another mini book with her initial on

I used one of my Stampin Up punches ( bunting).
Hope you have a good evening

OOh it is so cold here. I don't do cold!!!!!

That's the moaning over. So far I have made 85 cards for Hotshot Crafts since Friday. I thought I had finished.....silly me....of course I hadn't. I forgot I still had 20 bunting cards to do......... No housework again!

I have 2 samples to show you that I have made with one of the new Fizzy Moon stamps that are now available at Hotshot Crafts ( if you can't find them in the web shop yet just ring them and they will sort it out for you)

The first card has been coloured with Promarkers. I have also added clear glittery Atyou Spica pens on the flowers and vases. You can't see it on the photo...but it is there!.
The DP is Portobello Road

The second card has been coloured with H, B, Hb2 and HB4 pencils. I made the flowers from a die and added MS punched leaves.

Keep warm and safe

Be a star - Totally Gorjuss challenge #114

2012-01-14T10:10:00.000Z

Another week has gone by. It is another challenge at Totally Gorjuss

Our theme is

Be a star

So somewhere you need to incorporate a star in your card/project. The sonsor this week is Joanna Sheen

I have coloured and glazed this star (reduced to £2.39 in Hobbycraft). Lots of embellies and an Edwin image and here you have my Star project.

I am quite pleased with it. I didn't stop to think about and it only took me 25 minutes. It would have taken a lot longer if I was thinking about it!

Since Saturday I have made 84 card samples for Hotshot Crafts. I will start posting them in batches with links to the products in the shop

Well must go as I have 10 more decoupage cards to make!!

Have a lovely weekend

hugs Sarah x
