Emily's crafting

Well, my daughters have both now got the challenge bug and since I think my youngest is too young for her own blog, here are her cards to enter into the polka dot challenges!

Entered for:

Jen's Digistamps Challenge #7 Polka Dots

La La Land Crafts 4 Kids Contest #6 Polka Dots

Card for a beautiful redhead

I made this card for a lovely girl I know, she has beautiful red hair
and so I wanted to celebrate it!
I'd like to play along with Karen's Doodles challenge#87- Quote Inspiration. Closes Mon 7th
Here's my quote:
-- "You'd find it easier to be bad than good if you had red hair," said Anne reproachfully. "People who haven't red hair don't know what trouble is."
(by character Anne Shirley speaking to her guardian Marilla in book 'Anne of Green Gables')

Inspiration

I love going through different people's blog and being inspired by other people's designs. I made this card based on a design by Fae at Fae's Follies, I just loved the idea of coloured squares on the black and white base. I've used a gorgeous digi stamp by TiddlyInks.

Get Well Soon

I just love this stamp from Lili of the Valley! I've coloured it with promarkers and used an embosing folder for the sentiment.

I'd like to enter this card to the following:

Autumn Colours

I've been looking around at lots of really cool blogs and decided it's time I got back into the whole blogging thing and the best way for me to give that a go is to join in with some challenges so here goes. I used the 'Tomboy-Sonny' digistamp from Pollycraft and patterned papers from a freebie Betsy Tuma digi kit from Two Peas in a Bucket.

Hannah's ATC party

We have a bit of a tradition in our house for doing 'different' birthday parties, something you wouldn't necessarily get from your local sports centre . We've done fairies, mermaids & teddy bear parties but my eldest daughter is growing up and decided this year she wanted an ATC party - great idea! Only problem is my wonderful creative daughter kept on having great ideas:  

I know, lets make the invitation an ATC! Yes, it could open out and have all the details in the middle!

Let's have different challenges in gold envelopes with different stash for each envelope 

and books to decorate and keep all our ATC's in!

Oh and by the way can I have an ATC birthday cake with edible glitter on it?!

Of course I could have said no at any point but I'm not sure that's in my vocabulary when it comes to my girls!! Anyway, it was great fun even if it was a lot of work!!

ATC's & a new blog

I've been making the ATC's for this months Ali's Swap - Spooked. I was looking around Ali's site and found Jo and her blog http://mycraftingcorner-jo.blogspot.com/. It's a great blog and she also craft's with her daughter which I think is cool! She also has some amazing blog candy!!
