Which Doctor?.........

Well, I rather liked George Clooney as Dr Ross, or Richard Chamberlain as Dr Kildare, but I like my favourite still has to be David Tennant as Doctor Who  (although Matt Smith is doing a fabby job at the moment too!!!).  I'm more a Sci-Fi geek freak than a slushy smooth talker fan and I would like a wee hurle is the T.A.R.D.I.S. anytime to face the Darleks or the Cybermen.

I have had this stamp from Whiff of Joy for ages and finally have managed to make a card with him.  Quite a simple card with lots of embossing with my Cuttlebug folders using up some plain white and blue card stock. Inking round the edges with a red chalk ink. I don't have a Get Well sentiment stamp so used some peel-offs.  Other tools used was a Martha Stewart border punch and Oval Nesties.  The challenges covered are:-

• Whiff of Joy  -  Sketch
• Fab n Funky  -  Red, White & Blue
• Crafts 4 Eternity  -  Anything Goes

Hello again

I have been playing and managed to make this card so far.  I am blogging just now before I forget and before the daylight disappears to take photo.  For a change I decided to do a A5 card instead of a square card as not done one for ages - too comfy doing square me thinks, hehehe - and I must admit I was struggling with this one, alot of flower shuffling around the paper was done!.

The image is an Elizabeth Bell one from Sugar Nellie, coloured with my watercolour pencils.  Backing paper is from a DCVW Spring Stack.  Flowers are from a stash, as is the fabric butterfly.  Sentiment is from a DCVW quote sticker stack.  Tools used on the card were my Nestie Swirly template thingies.  The challenges covered are:-

• Flutter by Wednesday  -  Open Theme (got to have a Butterfly, Angel or Fairy)
• CRAFT Challenge  -  Flowers
• Pear Tree Designs  -  Colourful
