CES DT Card - Challenge 6 + Challenges


Challenge 6 over at the CES Challenge Blog. How time flies!! This week Julie has chosen the theme "Get Ahead, Get a Hat". Anything to do with hats whether it be on the image, papers etc.
For my card, I have used "Danni Dress Up" from High Hopes. First time I think I've inked this up even though I had her for yonks. Coloured with Aquamarkers and a black Glaze Pen for her Shoes & Pearls. Her Boa has been glittered with Iced Candy Cosmic Twinkles (ally pally purchase). Had to try out my new Hickery Dies from Magnolia, these are lush. Alot of the supplies on this card are available at Crafty Emma's Store and she's always receiving new stock.


If you need any inspiration, just pop on over to the CES Challenge Blog and see what the rest of the DT have made.

And here is this weeks prize, a"Glitterati Paper Pad by Memory Box "

Thats it for now. Thanks for all the get well wishes to Zoe. She's a little better today but these viruses certainly take it out on the kids. Jessica has now come down with it which is why my post is so late.

Heres a list of challenges that my card fits into;

Flutterby Wednedays - Sparkle & Shimmer
Stamp Something - Something to Celebrate
Stamp, Scrap & Doodle - Open Challenge
Crafty Catz -Birthday Card for a Child with Sparkle
Mami Doodle - Girls Birthday Card with a bit of Sparkle
OSAAT - Anything Goes
Pear Tree Designs - Celebrations

Have a lovely weekend whatever your up to, and thanks for stopping by my blog today. Always appreciate your comments!
