TEDDYBEA!

Good Morning!
Going to pull our Geraniums out today! Seems such a shame, because they're  still going strong, but, I need to get my bulbs in for next year whilst the grounds still soft.. Hubby got some of the trees sorted yesterday. Seems to be so many garden jobs to do before winter sets in..Will be worth it though.


Managed to make a Christmas card ! Yikes there's only 9 weeks left lol..
Jut look at TeddyBea-177 long time since I used one on these images..I've a folder full of them too! So sad when the TeddyBo Challenges closed down..At least you can still buy the images!
Coloured with Copics..LOts of glitter on the hat and Bauble..Magnolia/Marianne dies used..The sentiment is a Whimsy Stamp with an unknown stamp in the middle .
Papers/Doily from stash..

PEAS A CHANCE!

Good Morning!
Today sees the start of another Challenge over at QKR Stampede

Challenge #161 Make you own Background

This week I've used 17911 Peas in a Pod

What a fun 'Crew' they are...'Just up my street' lol..
Coloured with Copics........ Papers/Embellishments from stash..Sentiment Computer..
I've used Masking Tape to make my background...Torn into little strips and stuck down on a piece of white card..I then distressed all over it with Crushed Olive, but, thought it just a little tooooo limy!
  So went over it again with Antique Linen, took a little while to dry, but, happy with the end result gives a really nice texture feel too.

Touch of pencil for the grass!There's lots of Glossy Accents on their glasses..Paper from stash..Craft-~Too embossing folder used Spellbinder dies..The sentiment could be a tad size smaller, but, seeing as I've seem to misplaced on of the smaller dies I've had to use these!
