I was really excited when I asked Wendy Burns to design digistamps of my kids for me and she said yes. Im a DT member of hers and really love her style. 

So today I'd like to show you a card I made using one of the digistamps "I love to craft" based on Robbyn's photo.

Digistamp: Love to Craft  Wendy Burns Designs

Paper: First Edition

Halloween

We have 2 gorgeous free images for you to use (you'll find them on the blog)

Magical Day

All Dressed Up For Mummy

I have used All Dressed Up For Mummy

I cut the treat box with my Cameo , it's a file by Lori Whitlock. 

I've coloured All Dressed Up For Mummy with my Copics and cut around him leaving a small border. The box is cut from Papermill white card. I covered the box with patterned paper and also added some old paper distress ink. The web has some crystal stickles on it too.

We would love you to enter our challenge and one lucky winner will win a £5 voucher to spend in the Wendy Burn's Designs Etsy shop.

All Dressed Up Meets Mixed Media

Today I would like to show you a little bit of inspiration on a way to use some of your All Dressed Up images.

A mixed media tag

I have used one of the gorgeous  images from Wendy Burns - Wear With Style 2 digi image set. Wendy's designs are all available from her Etsy store here.

I took a blank tag and sprayed it with Dylusions spray inks and then added some ripped book papers. Lots of stencilling and stamping with texture paste, inks and gilding waxes came next. I then printed out the image, cut it out with a border using my Cameo and coloured it with Copics. The butterflies have been punched out onto old book paper.

I hope my tag has given you some inspiration to use Wendy's images with your mixed media projects the girls really do go well with this medium.

I'd also love to show you what my daughter created too. Gives me a chance to show you the whole set in the Wear with style 2 set.  As soon as she saw the images she wanted me to print her some to colour in. A great little activity for half term!!! She's going to put them in her Smash book.

Don't forget our first ever All Dressed Up Challenge is still ongoing and you have until the 14th to join in. The challenge is easy it's Anyting Goes!! We have a great prize for one lucky winner a £5 credit to spend in Wendy's etsy shop.

We also have a fab Facebook Group, why not come over and join in with us?

Cute Card Thursday

The theme for this week's Cute Card Thursday is

Distressed

I have distressed all the edges on my papers.

I've used another gorgeous image from the All Dressed Up Wendy Burns Designs. She is called I love my puppy. You're probably thinking where's the puppy but in this set you get 4 images. The full image has flowers and a puppy but Wendy has included the images as singles too. I used Papermill super smooth to print her out on and  I've coloured her with Copics and just a little stardust stickle. The papers are from Prima and are called Doodle Deux.

As always the other DT girls have made some great distressed projects and you can see them all at the Cute Card Thursday Challenge blog.
