Crimbo Crackers Challenge 67 - Anything Goes

Crimbo Crackers is back and the first challenge is nice and easy - Anything Goes. The challenge runs for 2 weeks and this one ends on 22 October - for more details, pop over to Crimbo Crackers

I've used an old Dude Time Doodles image and used Aquamarkers to colour it. Papers are from my stash and I've had them for some while so can't remember their origin! I've also used a die to cut the image and also for the layering. And ribbon is from my stash. I've added faux stitching around the edge with a black fineliner pen.

Good luck with the challenge and I hope you are able to join in!

Dude Time Doodles 28 November New Releases and Blog Hop

The time has come for the very last Dude Time Doodle New Release (cue sad music) and as its New Release Time we celebrate with a Blog Hop.  So please pop round the team to say your final goodbyes to us as a DT although no doubt you'll come across us somewhere in blog land again!

I've used Tree Topping Tim and coloured him with Promarkers - he will be available in the store to buy real soon so make sure you do because after 15th December, the doors will close and you won't be able to get him!

If you've arrived at me from The Dude Time Doodles Blog then you are on the right track although there is no start or finish point - just as long as you work your way through each of the blogs and leave us a comment at each point then you'll be in with a chance of winning! After you have left me a comment, pop over to Dawn.

I've used a freebie paper from The Clip Art Fairy and layered my image and sentiment (Studio G acrylic stamp) onto some random red card I found in my stash.  The star is actually a chipboard tree ornament I bought from Tesco last year - 10 for £1 and because the pattern didn't match, I covered it in some more offcut paper and then inked the edges.

Good luck with the hop and thank you to Dude Time Doodles, Boni, Anne and Tammy for all the help, support, laughs and giggles behind the scenes!  I'm following all the DT so I keep in touch!

I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Santi Beaches

As you may have noticed on my Dude Time Doodle post from earlier in the week, Dude Time Doodles is closing its doors on the 15 December.  I've been with the Design Team since the first challenge and have loved the wackiness that is Dude Time Doodles and the support given from the rest of the team.

So here is one of my favourite Dude Time Doodle images - Santi Beaches:

He's one cool Santa!  Papers and tag are from Here Comes Christmas cd from Polkadoodles and I've added some layered snowflakes cut with Marianne Creatables dies.  The red felt snowflakes are actually ribbon (sort of) and I bought it from Marks and Spencers a few weeks ago when me and the boys were having a breakfast treat in the cafe!

So if you want to stock up on Dude Time Doodle images you better be quick as the 15 December will be here before you know it!

Oh, and Samuel won his 9th trophy of the season earlier today!  He came third in the November Cadet Inkart Championship at Daytona Manchester.  And with the points he collected during the heats and final, it places him firmly in second place overall in the Championship!  Not bad for his first year kart racing!

Dude Time Doodles Challenge - Holidays

It's time for the very last Dude Time Doodles challenge - the doors are closing on the 15 December and we have a final new release hop next Wednesday - 28 November. Then after that, Dude Time Doodles are no more.  I've been with the team since the first challenge way back in October 2010 and I've totally enjoyed my time with the team.

I shall miss the Dude and Dudettes and the images - but I'll still be able to use the ones I have so not all is lost!

So, our last challenge is:

Holidays

And here is my typical Christmas scene with Kris Jingle who has been coloured with Promarkers plus stickles.  The papers are from Funky Hand and are part of the Oh Come All Ye Crafters Collection - Stylish Tree download.  I've made the card so that the image opens out.

The sentiment is from a stamp set that I'm ashamed to say I've had for a few years and this is the first time it's been inked up!  The snowflake is a Marianne Creatables die and I've added some funky Christmas lights as extra decoration.  The letters have been cut with my Sizzix Girls are Weird alphabet set.

A bit of faux stitching and some gold glitter glue and the card is complete!

Please show your appreciation for the rest of the Design Team - they can be found on my sidebar or on the main challenge blog - we've had a blast and we hope you have too!

Autumn Colours

I decided to do something a little different and used Brief Conversations, coloured with Promarkers and glossy accents on the hearts (you just can't see it!) and my papers are Cosmo Cricket - Mr Campy.  Which are probably my favourite papers at the moment!

I've added stars cut with my X Cut dies plus some random snipped letters.  Some faux stitching and all is done!

Dude Time Doodles - 31 October Blog Hop with a Bang!

It's time for the last Wednesday of the Month Blog Hop over at Dude Time Doodles and usually we celebrate by showing off the new releases, however this month we are doing something a little different!  We are celebrating two years of Dude Time Doodles and I've been there from the start so the last two years really have gone fast!

And what better way to celebrate than to have a sale!  You'll find 50% off all Christmas images in the store from now until the 13 November!  I've used Tangled which is one of the images with 50% off!  And the main image in the store on the front page is one of my cards too!!!

We're still having the blog hop, so, if you've arrived at me from Kevin then you are on the right track although there is no start or finish point - just as long as you work your way through each of the blogs and leave us a comment at each point then you'll be in with a chance of winning! After you have left me a comment, pop over to Mags.

I've coloured my tangled guy with Promarkers plus the lights are all stickles - you just can't see it too well!  I've added a stamped sentiment (Papermania and shame on me - I've had the stamps over a year and just inked them up now!!) plus a Marianne Creatables snowflake.

Papers are from Funky Hand - Christmas Tree download which is part of the Oh Come All Ye Crafters collection, and the little dinky lights I've had for years and just like to look at them rather than use them.....!!

So good luck with the hop and hope you have a little shopping spree at the store - perfect for the pesky men at Christmas!

Dude Time Doodles Challenge - Halloween

I'll keep this post short and sweet as I am in agony sitting down.  My right hip is really playing me up - that's what happens when I stand for an hour in the cold on a Saturday morning watching Jacob play football.  And I should have moved around a little. A few months ago it was my left hip from standing still in the cold for 2 hours waiting for the Olympic torch to pass through Blackburn town centre.

The Dude Time Doodles challenge this week is:

Halloween

And I've made a bookmark with Grim Grisham who has been coloured with Promarkers and then added to a tombstone shaped offcut of black card.  I've drawn the cracks on with a white gel pen.

Don't forget to check out the other Design Team samples and good luck with the challenge!

And Jacob's team lost 10-5.

Dude Time Doodles Challenge - Home Improvements

Time for a new Dude Time Doodles challenge! The theme this week is

Home Improvements

And I knew you'd be appreciative of a cracking card!  And such a large photo too!!  I've used Pete Plumber, coloured him with Promarkers and cut him out. 

Papers are from Funky Hand and I've made the star shape myself (and rather pleased with myself that it actually stands up fine too!)  The stars have been cut with my fab X Cut die and I've printed the sentiment from my pc.

Good luck with the challenge!  To find out more and to see lots more inspiration from the Dudettes and Dude, pop over to the challenge blog!

After you have left me a comment, pop over to Charlene.

I've been lucky enough to use Where's Willy and he's been coloured with Promarkers.  The fab papers I have used are Cosmo Cricket Mr Campy - great backing papers and very apt!  I did a little squeal when I realised that paper was in the pack!

I've made the bunting myself and used a scrap of embroidery thread to hang it all.  The grass is the good old Marianne Creatables icicle die.  I'll be surprised if I ever do use it for icicles rather than grass!

Good luck with the hop and don't forget to leave a comment as you go past!

Dude Time Doodles Challenge - Add A Sentiment

It's time for another Dude Time Doodles challenge!  And the theme this week is a nice and easy one:

Add A Sentiment

I've used Aaron Aeronautic Set and coloured them with Promarkers.  I've made a step card with my Marianne Creatables icicle die (it makes great grass too!) and added a cloud backing paper - Echo Park, Summerdays.

The planes have been added with wobber springs and I've made the banners and handwritten the sentiments.  I attached the banners to the airplanes with thin wire so they do look like they are being pulled through the sky!  Dave (the recipient) actually flies planes and he really liked the card too!

Good luck with the challenge and pop over to the challenge blog for more inspiration and how to enter!

Dude Time Doodles Challenge - Shades of Blue

Morning! We had a rather good day karting yesterday - Samuel, (since last week) is now the proud owner of his own kart and of course we had a full day testing it! I took loads of photos so will show then at some point (my Dad's camera so I don't have the software to download them).  Or, if you want to see what it looks like when going at around 58 miles per hour with your behind a few inches from the tarmac, have a look at their blog - Samuel and Jacob Kart Racing!

Anyway!  Time for a new Dude Time Doodles challenge and the theme this week is:

Shades of Blue

I've used Duck the Snowball Warrior and coloured him with Promarkers and a little stickles.  I made the card base myself with my trusty compass, inked the edges and then added a faux running stitch (I feel it keeps the image from 'falling off the edge'!)

I've added some shiny silver confetti snowflakes with foam pads to the card for a bit of bling!

Hope you can join in with the challenge - for more details on how to enter just pop over to the challenge blog!

I've used Grilling Gil and coloured him and the background with Promarkers.  The papers are from my stash - the blue is from Funky Hand and the red are odd bits I have kept (for some strange reason but I knew they'd be useful one day!)  I've cut the stars with my trusty and faithful X Cut die.

A bit of inking and some doodling and I've created the sentiment on my pc (couldn't trust myself to write that much and keep it neat!)  Perfect image for a man don't you think?!

Good luck with the hop and don't forget to leave a comment as you go past!

Dude Time Doodles - Buttons

Time for a Dude Time Doodles challenge and the theme this week is:

Push My Button

I've gone for something a little different as I do like this rather sour faced fishy - which has been coloured with Promarkers and then added to the background paper with foam pads.  All the papers - the background and flash of fishes are from Echo Park - Splash papers.

The buttons are from my stash and I had great fun sorting through the tub to find ones that suited the card!  The little bubbles I've made with a Sharpie marker and glossy accents and I've handwritten the sentiment!

Good luck with the challenge - for more details and inspiration, pop over to the challenge blog!

Dude Time Doodles - Travel

The weeks are flying by! And its time for another Dude Time Doodles challenge!  The theme this week is

Travel

So, tenuous link time with my creation!  Although I'm basing mine on travelling FAST!  I've used Dale Isenhardt and carefully cut around him after colouring with Promarkers.  He's been added with a double layer of foam pads so he really does stand out!

The background text was a freebie download from Papercraft Inspirations and I've taken off the Happy Birthday bit at the bottom and added the gold flecks and a bit of inking around the edges.

This is a rather apt card as Samuel had a rather good weekend again - he came second in round 7 of the Cadet Inkart Championship at Daytona Manchester and he now moves up to be second overall in the Championship too!  So another trophy for me to polish (actually as long as you don't touch them you can't tell they need polishing - its the finger prints in the dust that give it away!)

Good luck with the challenge!  Pop over to the challenge blog to see the rest of the Design Team's inspiration and to view the rules!

Dude Time Doodles - Fun In The Sun

Time for a new challenge at Dude Time Doodles and the theme this week is:

Fun In The Sun

Now Harold Hammock is one of my favourite Dude Time Doodle images so he just had to be used!  I've coloured him with Promarkers and made my version of a step card by using up left over bits of card when I've cut down an A4 sheet. 

The cloud paper was a Funky Hand freebie from a few months ago and I've cut out two extra clouds and added them with foam pads for some depth.  The grass is actually an icicle die from Marianne Creatables.  And the sentiment has been printed from my computer.

Good luck with the challenge - for more inspiration check out the Dude Time Doodles blog!
