Stella on Summer Holiday 5 o’clock

This stamp reminded me straight away of my mother in law who will be 83 soon and I know she will show the whole neighborhood this card, and they will all totally love the humor!!! As soon as I saw this image at Bugaboo Stamps I knew it would get a laugh and I love how this image comes with it’s own perfect sentiment!! To add a tropical feel I used a cocktail umbrella and added some bright flowers. I used yellow as my 5% accent colour to go with the blue sky & ocean and used it on the frame of my image and added flowers that I have had in my stash for at least 5 years and finally used them.I actually have a whole drawer of flowers, and as I am a hoarder have amassed a fair few over the years and it’s time to start using them up!!! I really love this sand paper to literally bring the beach to my easel card, there is nothing like the feel of sand beneath your feet..it really makes you feel like you are on holidays!!

I’d love you to come and Join our Challenge this week at

Bear Go Wild

As soon as I saw this Bear which is part of the Baby Zoo Animals set at KPM Doodles I knew exactly what I wanted to create. I was thinking… blue skies and a lovely big leafy tree and lush thick grass and my bear would be at home, so to speak! I used my Cricut to cut the tree, grass, clouds and sentiment. I purchased some Adhesive Springs from a stand at craft fair called Close to my Heart which apparently is a big stamping company in USA. I used this fabulous gadget to bobble my bears head and he literally does GO WILD! My girlfriend Vicki suggested the wobbly eyes to match his wobbly head when I was chatting with her on the phone this morning and voilà! I used my Copic marker to colour in the Spring component so it matched his head(see up close photo). What was I thinking only buying one packet…dear Santa please add some more of  these to my Christmas Stocking!!! I can’t stop playing with this card it’s so much fun wobbling!!!

I’d love you to come and Join our Challenge this week at
