Another play with my "Scan n Cut" no scissors involved here at all lol!

Always Keep Your Camera Charged

This is a card, it doesn't look much like one but honestly, it is! It finished up against the clock and it wasn't till my son was ready to go to a party that I realised that my battery was flat so this is the only photo that I managed. It fits in a DL envelope and as the card is formed with open lettering, the tag that's on the end gives space at the back to be write the greeting. I hope I'm not going to bore you with my Scan n Cut creations!




I'm using this card for the following challenges:-
CBD April, Anything goes,
DBD, Anything goes,
I&Y50, Anything goes,
SOS145, Faux, (Stitching to the tag).

Ladybug Birthday Challenge.

Goodness it's only 9am and I'm already on my second DT post of the day.
It's the lovely Ladybug Lyndsey who is hosting today's challenge at
 "Totally Ladybug Tuesday"
and the theme that she's chosen is 


This time the Ladybugs have all used
I wish you could see how glittery the frosting is, I swirled lilac and pearl liquid pearls together and poured a generous amount of glamour dust over it, leaving it to dry overnight before  shaking off the excess.



I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

Spring Colours With Lavinia.

It's a new challenge theme at Lavinia Stamps Challenge,
This time it's,


Ok, mine are a little more Citrus than Spring but they are certainly cheerful! I used a selection of stamps and inks onto a piece of scrap card which I then hand cut it into triangles to create my bunting adding some inky stitching.
The same goes for my background, also stamping, embossing and colouring my Zentangle butterfly.



I'm using this card for the following challenges:-
Hobbycutz, Shaped card,
C4E169, Mum,
DD81, Mum.
