100 cards for children in need TOTAL

Well i am sending the money off to children in need today.I didn't manage to make it to 100 cards. i made 75 and sold 73 of them. BUT the good news (like i said in my last post) is that i made over the £100 i wanted to raise. People were very generous and paid lots more than the £1 i was asking for so the total is..............£152! Yippee!

I wish i could have finished all of the cards and sent off more money but i have been asked to make some xmas cards for the oxfam shop in town and then have to make cards for us to send out so didn't really have time.

Thanks for all your support and encouragement and i hope the money can help someone somewhere.

I had planned a crafty day today but i've run out of double sided tape, so can't get on with it until mum gets back from town with more :(

Here's a set i made yesterday using the free stamps from creative inspirations a while ago. The idea for the door card is from there too but i decided to make a window tag to go with it.

Red and black

Hey!

I hope your all having a nice weekend. I had a lazy day yesterday and all i did was watch TV and films all day : ) but then i couldn't sleep so i made this card at about 2 o'clock in the morning. I had to be very quiet though because my craft desk is in mums bedroom and she was asleep.

Anyways.... this is my entry for the creative inspirations challenge which is red and black this week. I barely have any red and black stash though and all i could rind was 1 A4 sheet red paper, 1 A4 sheet black card, a red promarker and a black promarker. So i made my own backing paper using red paper, black ink and the free heart stamp from creativity! a while ago. I used some greay promarkers too so that i had more colours to use.

Hiya

Well i'm finally back into blogging again. yippee. i didn't post anything for ages and then i've just done 3 posts in a week :) it has been the holidays though so that could be an explanation.

Here's a card i've made for Wendy's challenge at digital doodling using one of here fab images. i just love this little piccy and she's so much fun to colour that i coloured her 3 times and made her into a decoupage! I felt a bit bad too that i hadn't used my promarkers in a while so i used them lots today.

The layout is a fab sketch for the challenge at Stamp With Fun. I love this sketch... i'll deffo use it again.
