Eat Cake!

Do you need an excuse? Here's another Dottie card.

At LAST!

Finally the new Prima arrived! I've never waited so long for an order! But girls, I did enjoy unpacking all those boxes! My oh my what wonderful goodies!!! Rich colours, beautiful quality, well you lot would have been in stash heaven!!! It's not often I can say that there isn't anything I don't like, but I can this time - I simply love it all. The large 12" x 12" sheets of clear stamps are quite frankly spectacular, the papers are all divine, the flowers delectable, the chipboard utterly scrumptious and the rest is equally as gorgeous!

Want to have a look? Go on then, I'll let ya! :o)

Couldn't Resist!

I just had to have a quick go at the new Cat Collection. This is the super cool "Sleepy Cat" graphic.

I use white acrylic paint, applied with a feathery brush, for the edge, glossy accents on mouse and nose, K&Co Chipboard and Maya Road Rub-ons, as well as other bits and bobs.

Funky Kitties!

Wow, oh wow! Take a look at the new Cat Collection designed by the wonderful Louise Brigden! I am totally in awe of Lou's amazing talent! Stand by for some example cards using this collection. Use the Dottie Blinkie in the sidebar to get your hands on it :o)

Coloured in by me. The images in the bundle are all in black & white.

Golfing George

Here is another card using the "George at Work" collection available on our website (click the Dottie blinkie in the sidebar). The George collections are fantastic for all your masculine cards, and lets face it, we all need a little help with those!

Layering used as always, as well as Glossy Accents.

Double Dottie Hybrid Card

Oh what a glorious morning! This is the ideal weather for me, if only it would stay like this and not get any hotter. I hope you are enjoying the sunshine wherever you are.

Here is another digi hybrid card I made for Dottie's World. It employs a liberal use of Glossy Accents to really bring that rain to life. Look how easy it is to manipulate the graphics to the size you want! Lollipop Lady from the "Dottie at Work" bundle, Little wet Dottie from "Fun time Dottie". Click here to download these bundles.

Dottie's World

Louise Brigden, the mega talented creator of our new Dottie and George downloads, has created a blog just for our dynamic duo, Dottie's World. The blog will be filled with tips for using the downloads, as well as project ideas and challenges. Pop over and have a look.

As a contributor I have designed a series of digi hybrid cards for Dottie's World. Here is the first featuring "Green Fingered George" from the George at Work bundle.

Click the Dottie blinkie in the side bar to purchase the bundles. Pop back tomorrow when I will have another digi hybrid card to show you.

Oh my....

I simply ADORE this new range of stamps we have coming in next week! Forget about your Tilda's and the like, these are the ones to have! Aren't they the cutest? They are from an exciting new Norwegian company and they will be landing NEXT WEEK!! Stand by!

Don't you just love them??

Magical & Mystical

That was the subject of the latest CJ to complete for the UKS Retailers circle, the focus being on fairytale and such like. Other entries included two dragons, angel, Santa and mermaids. I really struggled on this one, and you don't want to know how long it took me, but I finally got there.

I used Perfect Pearls on almost everything and it's very difficult to photograph as the colours keep changing. Here are some pictures from my entry, my only regret is that I didn't paint on the smooth side of the Bazzill for the unicorn.

Berry Sweet

Although I tend to lean towards the more mellow tones and distressed look I decided to have a play with the new K & Company Berry Sweet collection for some project ideas for the site. Here are three of the projects with seven more on the site here. I really love the fresh fruity colours of this collection.
