Sweet Stampin' - out of the frame

Good morning and a happy Saturday to you all :o)  Time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin', and this week our theme is 'out of the frame', and we're sponsored by Sew Sweet who are offering 1 winner a £10 voucher, and Joanna Sheen is our monthly sponsor with another £10 voucher to be won.




I've used one of the very cute LOTV bear stamps - this one is called 'Fun Birthday', and I've coloured it with promarkers and flexmarkers.  The fab bright papers are from the Echo Park Summer Days pad, with Stampin' Up 'soft suede' cardstock.  I've used a Memory Box party lanterns die, some ribbon, pearls from my stash, and a LOTV sentiment.

I'm entering my card for the following challenges:


Hope you've got something fun planned for today... it's pouring with rain here so we won't be going anywhere.  I'm trying to motivate myself for a big craft room tidying session, so maybe by this evening I'll have more than a 6" square space to work on... wish me luck :o)

Kat said...

What a lovely bright card Lisa. That image is sooo sweet and the DP is really lovely. Good luck with the tidying. I'd like to tidy but I keep thinking I need to get on with crafting when I've got some free time! Full time work really gets me down.

We've had a really nice morning here but now it looks a bit cloudy. Still the dogs are out enjoying the fresh air lol! I'm keeping one eye on the window in case I need to let them back in quickly.

Have a lovely weekend.

Craftdee said...

Another gorgeous creations... I love love love the papers (and the cute teddy, of course!) your pearls are perfectly matched too, excellent! Good luck with the room tidy... I have to do the same, but it's like a domino effect... I have to make room in the shed for some of the stuff from my back room (I don't teach my art classes any more, but I just can't bear to part with any canvases or wood pieces etc, or to be more honest I can't get the mojo up to get them up for sale!), so I'll have room there for some of the stuff from my craft room - the problem is, as my hubby tells me REPEATEDLY, that "stuff" comes into the house on a daily basis and doesn't leave... on ANY basis, lol.
