Spread Your Wings @ Ladybugs

Good Morning blogland, I hope you're all as excited as me - they have forecast some warm, sunny weather! yeah - not before time!

Speaking of time  - it just flies lately and I'm back already with a new challenge at

LADYBUGS CRAFT INK

and this week our super lovely Pinky may have moved on to pastures new but not before leaving us with this theme

Anything With Wings

Bit of a no brainer for me this week as the only LCI image
I could possibly use for this is Cupcake Ruby!

not too sure whats going on with my photography skills cos in real life these are all pretty much the same colour - certainly don't look it here! Click HERE to access Ruby at LCI shop.

Head over to the main challenge blog for all the details of this challenge and while you're there check out some fab inspiration from all the Ladybugs.

Bit of a quick post for me today I've lots to do!!

Thanks for stopping by, I'll be back tomorrow with my Diva's DT post

Things With Wings @ Oldie But Goodie

A very good morning to you all, well I don't know about where you are but it was dry here all weekend. It rained again yesterday though so back to normal now!

My little girl flew off on her travels again last week and after a few days exploring Hong Kong she has now moved on to China where she'll spend the next 6 weeks! I'm crossing off the days till she gets home safe! She assured me lots of people go travelling on their own!

I'm back today with a brand new challenge over at

OLDIE BUT A GOODIE

and this time my gorgeous friend Debs is in charge and would like to see

Things With Wings

This was great for me as this little stamp has been sat waiting her turn for so long on my desk I could hear her foot tapping!

Isn't she fab? Its Pippi Longsocks from Sugar Nellie and I love her! My papers are Basic Grey Kissing Booth and once again I used my MFT flower die. I actually followed the sketch over at The Sugar Bowl and really enjoyed making this, its ages since I followed a good sketch! Coloured with Copics and the plain cardstock is Stampin' Up which I got from Zoe (link in my sidebar)

We are sponsored this week by

 http://digidoodleshop.com/store/

and all the details can be found on the main challenge blog along with some fabulous inspiration from my lovely team mates.

Remember you can now use a digital image to join in but something on your card has to be at least 6 months old and you have to tell us what it is in your post 

Thats all from me today, thank you for stopping by

Love 'n' Hugs

Moving Along With Things With Wings

Good Morning to you all lovely blogland people its time for a brand new challenge at

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES

and this week the very lovely Pami has chosen

THINGS WITH WINGS

This is the 2nd time I have used this stamp - see I knew it was imperative I had it! I would like to use it more, but twice is really a lot for me when you see how many I have never used! The gorgeous gorgeous papers are from Maja Designs, I was first introduced to these by the lovely Jill, thank you Hunny they are DEVINE! I decided to go all monochromatic in my fave dusty pink as I had the exact right colour flowers from WOC and I coloured my flat back pearls in with Copics to match (you have to let them dry). I've sparkled her wings with glamour dust too.

I never get around to showing you the inside of my cards so for a change here's a little peek

The sentiment is from LCI and I promise it shows up more in real life!

We have a favourite sponsor back this week

 Before I give you all the details of that, have you checked the LCI blog to see if you were a winner last week? And don't forget all the super 'Candies' that were on offer, I only got back from my holiday late last night and the first thing I did was to pick my winner

Congratulations....

Now on to this weeks challenge, remember you don't have to use an LCI image to join in but we love it when you do.

Meet Daydreaming Ruby - isn't she fab? This is my first card with this little lady but I think we will become firm friends! I've teamed her up with the lush Prima Fairy Florals 6x6 papers and a gorgeous silk bow. No flowers is really unusual for me - I hope you noticed Kerry!

Now I just have to remind those of you who have not got her yet, Novembers Stamp Of The Month Nikki & Buttercup Building a Snowman is still available at half price  - what are you waiting for? Get yours before they run out!!

Thank you for looking and any lovely comments I receive
