Snow White Pin-up


Hello to my crafting friends, and a big welcome and "thank you" to my latest follower, Moira. I hope you enjoy your visits here.

Gosh, what is the global weather up to?? For several weeks, we have been on evacuation stand-by, because of the terrifying bushfires, then last night, we had a wild storm with torrential rain and hail. That is the first rain we have had in several months...very welcome indeed, although rather frightening the way it arrived. This is not to mention the awful storm that parts of Europe and the UK are experiencing. We have seen some footage on TV, and it looks fearsome. I send my well wishes, and hope you are all safe.

It's Wednesday again, and you all know what that means...it's time for
another challenge at Penny's Paper Crafty, and this week our theme is

'ADD BLACK OR BLING'

We are lucky to have 2 of our regular, and very generous sponsors
and


The DT was given images to use, and I chose Sassy Studio Design's
digi stamp, Snow White Pin-up.
Tucked away in my stamp cupboard was one of the first stamps I
ever bought...these 3 apples in a row. I thought they would be perfect
for Snow White. I coloured them with my Promarkers, and wow,
were they fiddly to cut out! My bling are the gems in the top corners.
They are really sparkly, but that did not show up in all the photos I took.

A closer look at at this rather saucy-looking Snow White,
coloured as usual with my Promarkers.

Inside my card. The corner embellishments are off-cuts
from the border die-cut.

66 Clickety Clicks

Hello to all my crafting friends,

Tomorrow is a very special day for John, my darling husband of 41 years and 1 week. 
It is his birthday, and I am not giving out prizes for guessing how old he will be. 
I don't know why I chose a gambling theme for his card, as he doesn't
even buy lottery or lotto tickets, let alone gamble on racing, or poker machines.
Perhaps it's because in my book, he is a winner, an ace! 
I love that paper that looks like real cork. I have had it for about 4 years.
I really must use up some of my massive collection of great papers.

Challenges I would like to enter:-
Here Come The Boys #56 - 'Anything Goes'
Card Makin' Mamas #72 - 'Monochromatic'
Sweet Pea Stampers - 'For The Men/Boys'
Challenges 4 Everybody - 'Anything Goes'
Dominoart #5 - 'Altered Game Board'
Ladybug Crafts Ink - 'Birthday'
Crafts 4 Eternity - 'Rust' WINNER

Bingo Card - Crafts 4 Eternity freebie digi (thank you)
Ticket greeting - Digi Doodle Shop freebie (DDS now closed)

Until next time, thank you for visiting,
Hugs,
