Joanna Sheen DT Call
This is a close up of the decoupage layers
Good morning everyone, this is a special post regarding the Joanna Sheen DT Call. I applied for the DT Call and I have been shortlisted to the final 12, all 12 finalists have been given a decoupage and some papers to use to make a card, everyone has the same.
I used die cuts in addition to the given paper and decoupage, I printed Joanna Sheen's decoupage and papers on pearlised paper which has given it a lovely soft look.
The finalists will be whittled down to a final 3, so if you find my work inspiring and would like to see more of it as part of the DT, then the Joanna Sheen Challenge Blog are asking for feedback on the applicants.
Please do pop by and if you like what you see please leave feedback in the comments.
Thank you so much
Happy crafting

Autumn Sprinkles
Hello, it's Monday again, it comes round so quickly. I hope you’re all OK and have had a lovely weekend. It is time for another theme over on the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge, this time it was our lovely Dorte's turn to choose the theme and she chose "Autumn &/or Harvest" As soon as I saw the theme I knew which stamp I had to use, HMTR1001 Autumn Sprinkles, I love this image, it's so fabulous.
Of course you must use a House Mouse, Happy Hopper or Gruffie to join in.
We are sponsored by House Mouse Designs
And they are giving the winner a $25 gift certificate.
Thanks for looking, the DT have all made gorgeous cards for your inspiration so hop on over to the HM&F Monday Challenge to see them.
This is for the following challenges:-
1. Allsorts - week 173 - Inspired By A Song - I chose raindrops keep falling on my head
2. Simon Says stamp - Emboss It - my sentiment is heat embossed (hope that counts if not please delete)
Please Help, I cannot get to grips with this new interface for blogger, I have tried what I did last time to put it back to the old interface, but it isn't working this time. Do I have to give in and try my best to cope or can any one of you lovely ladies help me out and get my old blogger back. My box for my text is way too small and half the tools are not showing, especially the image tool to add my photos. But it is a bit better if I do it in google, but then i'm backwards and forwards from google to AOL, as all my drafts etc are in AOL.
Recipe:-
Stamps - HMTR1001 Autumn Sprinkles,
Papers - Polkadoodles Sundae Of Seasons CD Rom,
Colouring Mediums - Promarkers,
Embellishments - Acorns and leaves from Polkadoodles Sundae Of Seasons CD Rom, ribbon, stickles,

So this is what happened this weekend for me, my youngest son Bobby had his very first football match yesterday, this is him wearing his kit, but he will insist on wearing his shin pads on the outside of his socks, as he says they rub. So we're off this week to try and get some he will feel comfortable with.
The score ended up as 3-1 to Bobby's team, and Yipee Bobby scored one of the three goals. We are so proud and his little face just lit up when he scored. The team did so well. Here's a photo I managed to take when he was standing still. Bobby is in the middle in an orange bib.
This is for the following challenges:-
1. Totally Papercrafts - challenge # 134 - Use Your Favourite Stamp
