My second Jellypark post of the day I'm on a roll :o)

Hello again, I've been a busy bee in the craft room lately. 

When I saw this fabulous new release image from the Jellypark Store I couldn't wait to make a card with her.

The theme over at the challenge blog is buttons and bows, I've splashed out on this card and it has both lol. The beautiful image has been coloured with my trusty promarkers and I hand stitched some lines onto the background before sticking her on. The lace has also been hand stitched in place along with the button. I added a sweet little tag and some felt flowers. I really enjoyed making this card. The Jellypark Design Team have also been busy so pop on over to the blog for some inspiration.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Happy crafting

New release time at Jellypark Friends and a new Challenge announcement

Happy Friday, I hope you are all well on this cold January morning.

It's been one of those weeks for me that I can't wait to see the back of so I spent some relaxing time in the craft room yesterday.

There is a new challenge over at the Jellypark Friends Challenge Blog and the theme is Buttons and Bows so we would love to see projects that have either buttons or bows on them or if you're feeling extravagant both lol.

There are also two brand new release images which are available from the Jellypark Store today and here is the first one.

Isn't is sew sweet, pardon the pun lol. I coloured it with promarkers and embroidered around it. I then cut around the edge with pinking shears and die cut some coordinating buttons and silver scissors.

It certainly meets the button side of the challenge theme, not a bow in sight for this one but I managed to incorporate both elements in my other card in the post above :o).

Pop on over to the challenge blog where there is a wealth of beautiful makes from the wonderful Jellypark Design Team.

Happy Crafting

Brown sugar challenge - anything goes

New year starts with a new project and new Jellypark Challenge

Happy New Year everyone and I really hope all of your crafty dreams come true this year.

I haven't been creating as much lately, sometimes other commitments just don't allow but I miss it so much and have decided to make more time.

I wanted to do a tutorial for Jellypark and realised that I needed a new version of my Blog Challenge Calendar for 2014. I've been using one of these for quite a while. I like to have the information right in front of me in paper form as I don't always have access to the internet from my craft room. It has been a really handy way for me to keep track of everything.

I have had a wonderful couple of days creating the tutorial for the jellypark store it's free to download so pop on over there for a look :o)

I used a fantastic 2014 calendar download also one of the new releases Resolution List digi from Jellypark for this project. I also used some of my own digital creations which I have decided to sell in my Etsy shop as an instant download. The notelets I created for my Papercraft Essentials magazine project have proved to be very popular and I hope you like these ones just as much :o).

Here is my make and as I said the tutorial is available for free over at the Jellypark Store.

My Blog Challenge Desk Calendar also fits the theme for our current challenge over on the Jellypark Friends blog which is "New beginnings", it features a calendar, a resolution list (which I won't stick to) and also it's appropriate because I am starting the new year by being bold and finally selling my digital artwork myself.

Happy Crafting Folks
