Last Challenge at Jellypark Friends

I have always loved Jellypark images & I was lucky enough to be part of the DT since Claire started the blog.  Unfortunately all good things must come to an end & this will be the last challenge for Jellypark Friends.  The theme is "One For The Mums" & I hope you will join us & help us go out with a Bang!  For my card I used "Flowers in a Vase" which is one of my favourite images as it is so versatile & coloured it with ProMarkers.  I used Cheery Lynn doily die & added ribbon, pearl & a button, finishing the card with Glamour Dust & a greeting.  

The challenges:

The Paper Shelter - Make it Digital

Pile It On - Adhesive Embellishments (pearls)

Inky Chicks - Flowers

Freshly Brewed - 1 Image, 1 Sentiment

That Craft Place - Mother's Day/Anything Goes

Natalie and Amy - Flowers

Digi Galore - All About Her

The Ribbon Girl - Add Flowers

Cheery Lynn - Doilies

Crafting Musketeers - Ribbons & Pearls

Have a great week :o)

For all the Mums & Special Ladies...

The Jellypark Friends new challenge is "Mothers Day/Special Lady".  I used this cute "Breakfast in Bed" digi stamp which is only £1.50 & all the money goes to a wonderful charity "The Willow Foundation".  I coloured my card with ProMarkers & paper pieced her dress, finishing off with lace, ribbon, flowers & a brad.  This card is going to my Mother-in-Law Joy who is a special lady.  Unfortunately I lost my Mum almost 30 years ago just before I got married & I still miss her.  I hope all of you that are Mums have a lovely day Sunday.

Mother's Day

Here's the card I made for my Mother-in-Law Joy (unfortunately I lost my Mum 25 years ago so it's a difficult time of the year for me). I used these gorgeous Easter papers from Designer Digitals again & paper pieced the birdies which are this weeks free image from Delightful Inspiration. The card is finished off with butterflies (Martha Stewart punch again), flowers, brad & gems.

I'm entering this card for 6 challenges:

Mother's Day Card

Hooray it's Sunday & the sun is shinning, I really hope Spring is on the way :o)

Mother's Day is always a funny time of the year for me (as are many other occasions) because I lost my Mum when I was 20 & it's something you never get over. But anyway I've made this card for my Mother-In-Law Joy who is a treasure. I managed to combine 5 challenges for this card:-

Whiff of Joy - Lavender & Lace
My Time to Craft - Hats!
Charisma Cardz- Pretty Cards/Pretty Cards for Mum
ABC - Distressing
Sketch & Stash - I used their fab sketch


The papers are from the Papermania "Amethyst Infusion" stack, the images are from my fantastic new(ish) WOJ Spring set coloured with Prismacolor pencils. I added self adhesive lace, a white flower which I chalked lilac, some punched flowers with gems & finished off with a button covered with Glamour Dust & a printed greeting.
