Trying Out For A New DT

Good afternoon everyone hope this post finds you all well?
I am going to try out for another DT this time it is the lush Sherri Baldy My Besties 3D Decoupage Sheets, if you have not seen Sherri's designs you really must go and take a look she is also on Facebook and her page is full of her lovely creations, they come in digi's and rubber stamps too along with new products including t-shirts etc.
I hope you like the card I made, I really enjoyed doing this and my crafting
 juices were flowing.

 

I used the lush decoupage image and cut it out by hand, then used my Silhouette Cameo to cut the card base and the fancy "Antique shape" behind it (which I have to say is on Sale). I then used Craftwork Cards papers and matt and layered with white as I thought it went well with the pastel colours. I added some corner die from my stash and the lush card candi with the hearts that went well with my colour scheme. To finish off I stamped a sentiment and added some pearls and bling.
 
I am hoping I have a chance to get onto the DT but we will wait and see. Take a look at Sherri Baldy on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/sherri.baldystamps?fref=ts) as her images are just really really pretty.
Thanks for looking at my card and I hope you all have a lovely day.

Cutie Pie Challenge

Good morning everyone, hope you are all well and this horrible drizzly weather is not getting you down too much?
I have not had a very good start to the year but as the saying goes "Things Can Only Get Better" so lets just hope that is true.
 
Here is my entry for the Cutie Pie Challenge the theme was January Blues. I coloured the image using my pro markers and my  metallic markers, then added some embossed foily paper I had in my stash. I then used a Martha Stewart punch for the border and added some ribbon. I then added the topper and finished off with some bling, pearls, flowers and a sentiment.


 
Please take a look at the Cutie Pie Challenge Blog http://cutiepiechallenge.blogspot.co.uk/ as we have two prizes to win this time.
 
Have a Great Day
