February Rudolph Day Challenge

Good Morning, well this is the start of the 2019 Rudolph Day challenges.
Little delayed due to MO's knee operation (which in the end didn't happen, so she  made us all jealous by going on a cruise.)

You can find the challenge here and view the wonderful creations from the DT. As February is a short month you have only a few days left to enter, so get your skates on.

Here is my card.
It is James the Bear - Snow Angel from LOTV.

A bit of glitter here and there and job done.
I have only made one of these cards as I over did it last year and have lots of cards left, yippee.

Well what a gorgeous week we had last week here in West Yorkshire, so sunny and warm for February, hope we don't pay for it later.

Thank you all for popping by and any comments you are kind enough to leave.

Allsorts challenge week 508 - Spring Flowers

Good Morning, our lovely Wendy has chosen the theme this week and she would like to see...

Spring Flowers on your creations.

Here is the prize for this weeks lucky winner




I decided to make a circle card for this Penny Black image - Spring Beauty as it seemed to fit the circle cards that I have better than a square card and I felt that the image spoke for itself rather than over-shadowed by any DP.

This week I have actually got back into making cards as I haven't made any since Christmas, played a bit, but not actually produced a card. 

We have also been really spoilt this week as we have had a few really warm days for the time of year but not rushed out to start planting seeds.

Have a lovely week and thank you for popping by and any comments you are kind enough to leave.

Allsorts challenge 507 - Cooking or Baking

Good Morning - Mervi has chosen the theme for this week at Allsorts and it is....

Cooking, Baking or Kitchen
The prize this week is this lovely Gingerbread Stamp.

I have gone for the cooking theme

The image is from many years ago and I am not sure if it is LOTV
or Hobby House, I have fussy cut the image.
The background is from some old papers.
Cloud and grass dies are MFT.
Butterfly, flower and ladybird are from Penny Black stickeroos.

Still managing to use old stock.

Thank you all for popping by and any comment you are kind enough to leave.
Have a good week.

Allsorts challenge week 506 - Winter Sparkle

Another week and another new challenge over at Allsorts,
Brenda has chosen the theme for us this week and it is .....
Winter Sparkle

Our sponsor for this challenge is STIX 2

For my card this week I have used an old Hobby House image

The papers is also old - Bo-Bunny - Winter Joy Stripe,
and the snowflakes are made using an old snowflake punch.
Added glitter to the snowballs and below the sledge.
Still getting through some of my old images - yippee.

I appear to have three new followers but I can not tell who they are, if you are kind enough to view this post would you please leave me a comment so I can tell who you are and return the favour.

Thanks so much for popping by and any comments you are kind enough to leave.

Allsorts Challenge week 505 - Love

Good Morning - it is challenge 505 at Allsorts and the Theme is Love.
This has been chosen by our lovely team member Helene.

We have this super Indigo Blue stamp for the lucky winner.

Here is my card.

Yes, another LOTV pre-coloured image. I did warn that I would be using up old items this year.

Papers - Craftwork Cards from the 6x6 paper pad 'Hearts and Flowers"
and to be honest I thought I would never use this sheet. What a perfect match for the image.
 So never say never, lesson learned.
Ribbon and Pearls from way back when.
I was tempted to touch up the colours but decided to leave well alone as would probably make a mess and I do like the subtle colours.

Thanks for popping by and any comments you are kind enough to leave.
Hope you all have a lovely week.
