Sticker Girl

 Do you remember I brought some stickers home with me from the Stitches show at the NEC, made by Little Claire? I have had a chance to make a card with one of them, and here she is. I stuck it on to white cardstock, and coloured with Promarkers. I added a bit of black as the lines of the outline stickers are very black, so I wanted to draw this into the design. The background square is a Martha Stewart punch around the page set, and the blue oval is a Nellie Snellen die 



 The flowers were punched, and shaped a bit with a ball tool



Look at the lovely parcel of goodies that arrived yesterday from QVC, I have some samples to make with them, and it will be easy, as they are all quite delicious....lovely papers, Martha Stewart vintage glitters.....


and some Perfect Pearls mist sprays. I tried those today, and they are gorgeous. The pots are full of Tim Holtz Clear Rock Crystal crackle stuff, I cant wait to try that!



More good news! I had an email from Blitzy to say that they now ship worldwide. Those of you in the UK who haven't looked at Blitzy, it's a site in the USA that offers fantastic crafty bargains three times a week. At the moment, they have Rangers distress embossing powders for $2.99 - that works out to £1.90 a pot, and they have all the distress ink colours. So I have ordered a few of those, but I didn't use the international shipping option, as we are back in the USA next month. Go HERE to sign up to get the emails


I will sort out the winners of the monthly challenge, and announce them tomorrow, with another challenge for you all


Another Max story:
Daddy, I want to be a knight, with a horse and armour
What? More than you want to be a fireman?
Yes, I want to go to night school


You couldn't make it up..........


See you tomorrow

  8. Lol, really...night school! Kids..
    Love the card, I'd never known it was a sticker! Lovely little lass. Well...can I say I knew you before you were famous? Designing for QVC!Is that for the UK or US one? It's because you do such good work. Will we have to wait to see what you make until after it's shown there? Thanks for sharing friend.
    Hugs, Jess

  12. Adorable card. You'd never know that was a sticker, very cool.
    I got that e-mail from Blitzy too, or maybe it was on facebook, either way, I thought of you right away and was going to leave a message to you about it. Guess I don't have to after all, eh?
    You sure got some wonderful goodies in the mail didn't you!
    Gotta love the things the little ones come up with. So cute!
