Pollycraft Challenge #94 "Embellishment Bingo" - Sheena

What a gorgeous weekend of weather we've had here. Unfortunately I didn't get to get out and enjoy it but managed to get a whole lot of washing done, including my walls. We have 16 days until we move house! Whoo hoo.

But you're here to see my card for this week's Pollycraft Challenge!

The lovely Sheena made an Embellishment Bingo Card for us to follow this week. What a fun and different challenge to follow!

I could have put all those embellishments on my card but I managed to restrain myself! lol.

I used Pearls, Pins, Flowers on the Bingo Card.

I've also used the new images "Mr & Mrs Chester" from the Pollycraft Shop. They are so much fun! Paula has been working so hard and has ANOTHER new set released this week. They are so cute so be sure to check them out!

I'm entering this card in the Secret Crafter's challenge which is 'Anniversary'

Our sponsor this week is Letraset

Hope to see you in this fun challenge at Pollycraft this week!

Playing in The Sugar Bowl

I've just had some spare time while hubby took my youngest out for shopping time at the 'Boys Toy Shop!'. lol. So of course I didn't waste it and played with my craft goodies!

Finally got this gorgeous Sugar Nellie image coloured up which I got quite a while back. Her name is Joy!

I've followed Maria's sketch over at The Sugar Bowl this week so I'm going to enter my card there!

Visit again soon to see my Pollycraft Card for this week's challenge!

Another 'Just Because' Card

I'm loving the opportunity to be able craft just for 'fun'. This means making a card just because I can and I want to! There's something very therapeutic about mindlessly colouring with my copics.

It's been awhile since I coloured up a Maggie and I wanted to give this one some dark red/auburn locks. Mainly because I always go for the trusty browns! lol.

I've drawn some inspiration from the extremely talented Debbie Pamment. I've been wanting to make a different type of fold card and Debbie's creation certainly gave me some!

So here is my card!

 Front

Inside

Back

I followed Marianne's tutorial for her 'Magic Card'.

I've also found these challenges to enter it.

Just Magnolia and Hanglar & Stanglar-Lace (punched)
