Global Design Project #093

This week over at the Global Design Project, we are playing with a colour challenge. These types of challenges are actually a favourite of mine, as I adore playing with colour!

And this week we get to play with two of the new In-Colours - Lemon Lime Twist and Berry Burst. Fabulous names aren't they?!

And here is my entry this week.

I used the fabulous "Happy Birthday Gorgeous"stamp set, the new "oh my stars" embossing folder (I can see this one getting LOTS of use!),  and the great new "colour theory DSP paper stack" which comes in a super handy size of 6 x 6 inches, and each pack has 48 sheets in it, which makes it great value at only $17.50

Until next time....thanks for stopping by!

I have been having some trouble with technology the last few weeks. Hubby bought me a new laptop for Mother's Day and since then, I have had some trouble with sending photos from my phone to my laptop. Now that I think I have it figured out...I can upload photos for this weeks design challenge over at the Global Design Project

I am entering in the last couple of hours today! Eeeek!!!

But here it is...

I had better fly and get some more chores done.

See you again soon, and thanks for stopping by.

Here we are again...another week another challenge to participate over at the fabulous Global Design Project 

And this week we are CASEing the designer...and this week it is the work of the fabulously talented Shawn de Oliveira. I love Shawn's style, it is so clean and stylish...and how great is it having a man here in the stamping world!

And here is the beautiful card that Shawn has made to give us all inspiration for our own creations.

And here is my entry to this weeks challenge. I hope you like it, it was a super quick one for me to create this time...as I could here Kylie Bertucci's voice in my head saying "just stick it down". Thanks Kylie!

 Thanks for stopping by.

See you again soon!

Oh my goodness!

I was so very honoured last night to be chosen as one of three winners in the Global Design Project challenge #87

I don't even know what to say...besides a very BIG thank-you to all the designers over at the Global Design Project who give us a new and fabulous challenge each and every week, and provide us with inspiration and encouragement constantly, thank-you.

And here is a little snap of my entry for that challenge

Now I had better get started on this weeks entry in the Global Design Project #88

Thanks for your support!

Global Design Project #087

I missed playing along with the Global Design Project last week, as we had a SUPER busy week here  in our little cottage.

But I was looking forward to playing along again this week.

This weeks challenge has a theme, and the theme is 'cooking, baking & making'

As someone who enjoys baking and gifting homemade treats, this one really tickled my fancy!

So I decided to create a little gift bag for home baked goodies.

I hope you like it. 

Happy baking lovelies!!

Thanks for visiting

A quick one today…my entry for this weeks Global Design Project challenge.

This week is number 85 of the challenges, and it's a colour challenge, so it's one of my favourites…as I absolutely LOVE colour!

We were asked to choose 3 of our favourite colours from those below…so I chose, Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron & Tip Top Taupe.

I hope you like it.

Thanks for stopping by!

I had made a promise to myself to participate in more design challenges. And even though this week has thrown me more than a few curve balls, I still managed to participate with the talented people over at the Global Design Project….just in time mind you, as a new challenge arrives tomorrow! EEEk!!

This week was "Case the Designer"

And we were very lucky to have the talented Michelle Last as our inspiration.

And here is her beautiful card, which we could use to inspire our own creation.

And here is my card. It is a bit of a step out of my comfort zone with this one…but I also promised myself to stretch my approach to card design too.

Hope you like it….it's a bright one!!!

Happy belated Easter to you all…and this is why this post is SO late arriving this week. We have just arrived back from a week away down the South Coast, and upon arriving back, I realised that I have a few days left to enter into this weeks design challenge over at the Global Design Project

This weeks theme is Sparkles / Bling

And here is my contribution.

Thanks for stopping by!
