Having Fun

Here is one of the new release digi's from Jellypark, its called Dad with Kids and it is one of the Charity stamps so all proceeds will go to the Jellypark charity of the year, which currently is The Sick Children's Trust.  So for each stamp that is bought, all the proceeds go to the charity!

I've coloured it with Promarkers and then coloured the grass and sky with watercolour pencils.  The stripy paper is from Echo Park - Splash and I've used an offcut of kraft card for layering along with some green I found in my box.

The sentiment is also a new release and it's part of a collection of 10 for only £2.25 and each of the stamps has a various Father's Day sentiment on them.  I've also coloured it with a combination of Promarkers and watercolour pencils before adding it with foam pads.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Dl.Art: Thankful:  Fathers Day
DRS Designs: The Great Outdoors
Little Miss Muffet:  Happy Families
I Love Promarkers:  Anything Goes

Jellypark Challenge - Pretty Pastels

And here we go for the last blog post for today and it is the turn of the Jellypark challenge!  The theme for the fortnight is:

Pretty Pastels

Which would be perfect for this time of year except that here in Lancashire we have snow, and its snowing hard.  And its really windy. Great.

Anyway, I've used Hoopla Hannah and she is a charity stamp - so 100% of the sale goes towards Jellypark's charity of the year which is The Sick Children's Trust.  And at only £1.25 is a bargain plus you are contributing to a very worthwhile charity!  There are other charity stamps available too - and all just as cute!

I've coloured her with Promarkers and added glitter glue around the edge of the image and also on the heart on her t-shirt.

The background is all one layer and is printed from a kit from Cuddly Buddly - you get 16 in the kit for £2.49 and they are so easy to use - great for when you need a quick card!  And that's about it!

Good luck with the challenge - for more details pop over to Jellypark.  There are two new release stamps too this fortnight and I'll be blogging them at some point over the next week.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Southern Girls:  The Kids are Alright
I Love Promarkers:  Anything Goes
Creative Craft Challenges:  For The Kids
Fashionista Challenge:  Pink
Kenny K's Krafty Krew:  For The Girls

Breast Cancer Ribbon

Here is the second of two new digi stamp releases from Jellypark.  This one is called Breakthrough Breast Cancer Ribbon and all proceeds from the sale of the digi stamp will go to the charity.  And at only £1.25 you won't break the bank and you'll be supporting a very worthwhile charity!

I've coloured it with Promarkers and added liquid pearls to the little hearts (there was no way it wasn't going to splodge!) and I've added it to the nestie scallop tag with foam pads.

I've used off cut of card from a wordbook project and the download is Santa Baby, part of the Come All Ye Crafters collection from Funky Hand - I really don't like throwing the strips away!!  To hide the unprinted side, I've stuck two scalloped circles together and then added the eyelet.  I've inked the edges with a very old and on its last legs pink ink pad and then added a line of liquid pearl dots around the edge.

And I know, I should have ironed the ribbon before I dressed the tag.  But ironing and me - hello??!!

Deep Ocean Challenge:  Anything Goes
Party Time Tuesday's:  Anything But A Card
Passion For Promarkers:  Shabby Chic Pink or Blue

Song In Your Heart

Here is the first of two new releases from Jellypark - Song In Your Heart - and the sales from the stamp will be donated to Breakthrough Breast Cancer.  So you are not only getting a fab digi stamp for a very reasonable £1.25, you'll also be supporting a very worthwhile charity!

There is also another stamp that is raising funds too and I'll blog my creation in a few days - drip feeding the Jellypark goodness!

I've coloured the image with Promarkers and added a little glitter glue and liquid pearls here and there.  Papers are Samantha Walker - Retro Roadtrip and I've added two Sizzix heart dies and a random flower and brad I found in my stash which as luck would have it, matched the colour scheme perfectly!

A bit of faux stitching around the edges of the card and its complete!

So go on, treat yourself to a Jellypark digi stamp (and a few more!) and help to raise funds for Breast Cancer - October is Pinktober just in case you didn't know!

I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Crafty Mess:  Anything Goes
Annabelle Stamps:  Thanks
Avadares Challenge:  Thankfulness
My Mums Craft Shop:  Love
Celebrate the Occasion:  Breast Cancer Awareness
