A challenge full of character.

Hello, it's been a couple of weeks since I blogged, been busy catching up with DT creations and relaxing over Easter. Hope everyone had a nice time.

 

This month over at the Sarah Hurley Challenge Blog, which is sponsored by Letraset, the theme is "Projects with character".  I had great fun making this card using papers and the adorable Jack digi stamp from the Secret Rose Garden Kit. It is packed full of lush papers and embellishments, and I loved making this card for a boy, which is unusual for me as I tend to make quite girly cards :) 

 

Ingredients

Papers and digi stamp - Secret Rose Garden

Card candi, charm and twine from stash.

Sentiment from Stampin' Up

Coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers.

Launch day is finally here.

And the gorgeous Secret Rose Garden is now available in all its glory to see. It has been so hard for me to keep schtum about all the delicious items in the kit, but Phill and Sarah have been keeping me in check (well trying to lol).

 

This range has been a long time in the making, and the wait has certainly been worth it. I was privileged enough to get a kit to play with last week and spent lots of time oohing and aaahing at my screen before deciding what to make.  The range of papers are superb, from love hearts to buttons, gingham to polka dots, what else could a crafter ask for?  Anyway, here are my creations.

 

I used the precoloured digis, and love the detail that is in each one. The squirrel is super cute. All the items I have used are available in the Secret Rose Garden Shop, and there are so many things available in the range.

 

Why not pop over to the FB Page for ideas and inspiration? There is also a Blog and Gallery.

 

Thanks for reading my post today, hope to see you again soon xx

 

 

Naughty or Nice??

Now for me that is a toughie to answer!! Now that the Sarah Hurley Lookbook is launched I can blog some of the cards I have made for it using the Santa's Workshop Christmas Kit. I had great fun making cards with this kit. There are fabulous papers, sentiments, embellishements and digi stamps.

I have layered up some of the papers and digi stamps(there are even pre-coloured one, so ideal for quick cards) and added some sparklies on the snowflakes :D

Hope you are enjoying the Christmas cards, and they inspire you to make some.
