  I picked this from All Dressed Up after winning two of their beautiful images from an Outlawz challenge. Friends of mine just got a new kitten and this will be perfect for them for xmas. I coloured the image with my promarkers and used papers from hobbycrafts traditional chrismtas pack. The stocking embellishment came from the matching embellishment set. The sentiment was stamped from a set I was given a while ago.

My friends youngest daughter is 4 today, so I made this card for her, as she loves mermaids.  The papers are from a make&create pad called 'feeling happy' layered on a teal card base. I fussy cut the pollycraft image on my cameo and cut the seaweed and starfish on that too. The sentiment was from a stampset I've had for years and i added a few pearlesent gems.

 How cute are these penguins from bugaboo? I have coloured them with my promarkers to match the paper. The paper is a hobbycraft pack, ice blue.

As anyone who has been on my blog before might know, I don't generally like pink very much, but that was the challenge and other people I know do so... still I'm rather pleased with this one, I actually think it's super cute, despite the pink, lol! This adorable image is from Di's Digi Downloads, coloured as ever with my promarkers and a little glitter glue on the santa hats. The sentiment was just typed. The papers are from make & creates magical christmas design pad. I went with grey card to layer on a white card base. I added a little lace and some gems to embellish.

I saw the 'inspired by etch-a-sketch' challenge on A Barrel of Monkey's and knew it was the perfect time to use the acetate sheets I picked up a few weeks ago. I cut the black card base and poppys on my cameo. I coloured directly onto the acetate for the poppys. The paper also cut on my cameo, was from J'Adore by First Edition. I stamped the sentiment directly onto the inside of the card, which I'd added a white panel too.

I'll have to get back to you on where I got this stamp and sentiment, because my usb with all my stamps is in my office and I'm not currently as I made this earlier today and am just getting to uploading it. The papers are from first edition, the free spirit pack. I layered it on navy blue card. Sadly my image came out a little dark, so it looks more black, but it's navy, I promise, lol. I coloured it with my promarkers as always and added a few gems to finish. Challenges: Passion for Markers - Green/Blue/Purple Gem of a Craft Challenge - Anything Goes

  After almost a month away from my stash I sat down today and my brain was blank!  Luckily, the Less is More Challenge came to my rescue along with this set I got in a mag a few weeks ago with stamps by Toni Darroch. I inked it with black at the top and blue for the 'jacket' and added the sentiment from the same set. I coloured the face and the headphones but left the hair and layered it on a card base as close to the ink I used as I could get. I think it matches well. A few bits of sequence finished it off.
