ABC challenge 3

Well a great challenge for the ABC challengehttp://abc-challenge.blogspot.com/ this week. It's C for charms this week so for this card I added 2 charms. This card is for my Mandy's birthday next week. I've used paper from a kit I got from QVC I've added beads on elastic along one side and the a matching ribbon the other side. I then added stamped image that Vanessa printed for me. I painted with watercolours and added glitter glue to the stars and on the tutu skirt I added normal glitter. Also I just rubbed some pink chalk over the background to take a bit of the whiteness away. The letter are Quickutz, finally adding the pink heart charm and then a princess crown charm.

Well a week today will be my 22 wedding anniversary and the best bit my Nicki will be arriving home. I've missed her so much, plus it will be the first day of my summer holidays. I have so much crafting planned for the holidays I hope I get enough time to do it all lol. Have a good day everyone, big hugs vicki oxo's

ABC challenge 1 and 2

Well I found this challenge on Linda's blog http://linda-wright.blogspot.com/ have a look at her cards they are lovely. So onto the challenge, this is a new challenge http://abc-challenge.blogspot.com/ and they are only on B so I thought I'd do both A and B. A was for Animal so did Georgia card with this lovely image that Vanessa gave me. The colours have scanned in funny, the card was lighter and the painting brighter, not sure what is going on with scanner. For this I used paper from my stash and painted image with watercolours then I added flowers on the plain pink card and finally a bit of glitter on the wings. B was for baby, and because I don't have any baby's to do a card for I thought I could get away with doing a card for one of our babies at school. Olivia will be 3 so still so little hope this counts. Again I used paper from my stash then added Tilda painted with watercolours then Birthday girl stamp. Finally adding names with Quickutz letters. Couldn't put too many bits on any of them as both girls will put them in their mouths so safety first.

Well my Nicki arrived yesterday lunch time and I got a text to say arrived safely it's really hot and sunny, oooooo yes Nicki it's Spain darling lol. She can be a bit blonde sometimes lol. Mandy is not missing her at all, think she's enjoying having time with us on her own and the bedroom to herself. I hope it's not raining with you, I wanted to put the washing out but skies here are black. Is this really July? Hope the sun starts shinning when the school holiday begin in 2 weeks. Whatever you're going enjoy your day big hugs Vicki oxo's
