The new challenge on Ruby's Rainbow Challenges is a sketch and for my DT work I made a little card using scraps from my huge pile that I can't bear to throw away! and a cute Penny Black Hedgie Stickeroo which I find very useful!  I water coloured round it to co-ordinate with the papers.

We have again reached the end of another round of the alphabet on the Alphabet Challenge Blog and this fortnight the challenge is Z for Zoo Animals.  I used a Penny Black Stickeroo for my DT card and some DCWV bp onto a purple card, in my attempts to use up old stash!  I coloured the flowers and card candi with Promarkers to match.  Bad light again when I took the photo - roll on Spring!

MTTC Challenge #171 - Your Favourite Embellishment

The new theme on My Time To Craft for the next fortnight is to use our Favourite Embellishment.  I found this a difficult thing to do for my DT work as I don't just have one favourite!  I used a Penny Black Stickeroo for my card, and decided to punch some flowers which I love to put on but there wasn't room for many!  So then I decided to add some swirls, which I also love - and then decided that they all needed some adhesive gems to finish them off, which again I love!  So for this challenge I am saying the gems are my favourite! 
I am also entering this for 
Charisma Cardz Challenge - Happy Birthday
