Superhero......

Morning all. I hope you all had fun on the blog hop last week at CRAFT, thanks to all of you that stopped by to say hello to myself, Liam and Owen. We loved reading all your comments.

This week CRAFT challenge want to see your  

Easel cards

We have great sponsors again which are

Bugaboo Stamps

Crimson Cloud

It's pretty amazing but for my DT card I decided to get ahead and make Liams 6th birthday card. When I say get ahead, it's by a whole 7 weeks!! I even surprised myself how early I've made it!!!

  

I've used a digi image from out sponsor, Bugaboo stamps called AKV - superhero stance which I've coloured in with Promarkers.

 For the first time ever I got out my sewing machine and added some stitching to the card.

I've used some ribbon from Crafty ribbons, Doodlebug stickers for 'Liam and 'Six' and some Candi to decorate.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check out the other DT cards here

So, now it is time to get you some inspiration for this challenge. Here are our cards for this challenge.


Here's mine (Liams's) I've used a digi image from Eyecandie called Mothers day Ryan. My Grandma is 60 this year so I made this special card for her. I used my Mummy's craft things, apart from the card candi as I have some of my own in my craft box.

This is my younger brothers card (Owen's). He also used a digi image from Eyecandi called Flower pot treat, which he coloured in with Mummy's Sakura pens. He made it all by himself including the 'Grandma' stamping and using Mummy's Cuttlebug to cut out the image. Mummy just helped him punch the sentiment out and he wasn't strong enough!!. He added lots and lots of flowers to it.

Thanks for stopping by,


Your next stop will be Jenny. Hope you are having fun! Enjoy the rest of our blog hop!

Train first birthday card

I've just finished a first birthday card that I was asked to make. It had to had a train on as the little boys Grandad is crazy about trains.

I've used Stampin up ds papers, a sentiment from Lili of the valley, petite pennants builder punch (SU), card candi, letter stamps and a circle punch for the 'grandson'. The image is a digi image I coloured in with Promarkers. I can't remember where the digi is from, I know I've used it for a DT card for CRAFT challenge when they sponsored us, but can't remember the actual name of the company.
I'd like to enter this into challenges at:
That craft place - One for the boys
Craft your days away - Just for children
Emergency crafters - Bright and bold

Thanks for stopping by.

Animal crazy

My two little monkeys have been crafting again. 

This time they made JDT cards for the newest challenge over at CRAFT challenge which is

Animals

Our sponsors for the challenge are:

Floppy Latte Designs

The Stamping Boutique

HopeJacare 

Here's Liams JDT card.

 He used a digi image from one of our sponsors:

Floppy Latte designs called Teddy and heart. 

Liam thought the teddy looked like a monkey hence the monkey background.

Here's Owens JDT card, using the same digi image. 

He went a bit crazy with the stickers, but had lots of fun with them.

Here's a joint effect by Liam and Owen. 

They did some punch art to make an Angry bird. I found the instructions for them on a blog here which they copied using some Stampin Up punches and nesties. They both just love using my cuttlebug. Owen thinks he's really stong how as he can now turn the handle without any help.

Finally the last card is my DT card for the challenge, I've used an image from The Stamping Boutique  Pocket Patootie Monkey.

I made a ribbon flower, it's the first time I've ever made one of these, I was pretty happy with how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget you can find the rest of the DTs animal creations here
