Anything Goes at Robyn's Fetish

Good Afternoon and Happy Easter to all of you,

It's a lovely sunny Easter sunday, which also means it's time for a new challenge at Robyn's Fetish, and we are sponsored by Robyn's herself. She is a very talented person, and you'll be able to find your 3 images choice here. You've already seen a few of her creations on our blog, as we are lucky enough as DT members to use regularly her creation. I really like "working" with her stamps and papers. And today is the favourite theme for all of us...... ANYTHING GOES.....

For a change, I haven't made a card......


I made a sweet box. It was my friend Elly from Crafter's Companion, who offers me one when we met at the NEC last year. It's our "tradition" when we met, each of us is offering something to the other ones.....  I love my box, especially that Elly did it in my favourite colours.....Black and white..... Since I received it, I was wishing to make one, and I thought that today challenge was the perect challenge to try one....

I have used some gold paper with hearts, I bought at the NEC, and I add my "Red hat" from Robyn's store; You can find it here. I have coloured it with some sakura pens and my Spectrum noir in the following shades: 11/12 and 5 and the flower in shades 163/37 and 45. I have finished my box with some ribbon, also bought at the NEC. My step daughter is getting married soon, and I think I will offer it to her with a few nice chocolate in.

I will enter my card in the following challenges:
Gingerloft Challenge : Anything but a card
scrappy frogs challenge : Shape it Up! Challenge
Anything Challenge : Anything Goes
I Brake for Challenge : Anything.....But....
Paper take Weekly : Anything Goes


Have a nice end of Easter week-end, and look forward to reading your comments.

Sport.......

Hi everybody,

How can I talk about sport on a Sunday ?????? It's easy, it's time for a new challenge, challenge 101, at Robyn's Fetish. And this week we are sponsored by Bugaboo; And the winner will be able to spend his/her $21 voucher on the Bugaboo store.

I have made my card using a model, I found in one of my magazine..... Unfortunately for me, all the measurement were wrong....So it took me ages to make it....Lol!!!!! I have coloured my little Bugaboo "Fishing frog" with my Spectrum Noir in the following colours.

Frog : LG3, CG4 and 43
Hat : TN3 and TN4
Bag : 100 and 104
"Canne à pêche" (sorry don't know the word in English and Dave is not with me....) : CG7, BG5, CG1 and CG3

 For my backing paper, I have used a CD from Crafters Companion, and the other one I have made it with my Spellbinder "Fleur de lys" that I have first inked with some Distressed Walnut ink, than I have embossed it.
The "reddish" paper is from my craft box. On it, I have put some golden border as well as a fish. I have finished my card by putting another fish on the top right corner.

That's it for me. Looking forward to see what you'll create as "Cards Depicting Sport".  Am going now to get the barbecue on, so we can have a nice diner and enjoy a bit more sun.

And please, don't forget that I am like you......I love reading your nice comments, so if you pop in here, please take a minute and leave me one.

Cupcakes at Robyn's Fetish Challenge

Evening,

Sorry am a bit late, but I had a very busy sunday. After spending a lovely morning with my man, I have been to see some friends for the aperitif, than pick my daughter and been and see my mum as it is "Grand-mother's day" here in France. And i have finished my day with some other friends, who needed to talk.

I would like to dedicate my card to my mum. She (once again) fall a few days ago, and is waiting for X-Ray. She seems to be fine, but can never know.

This week we have been lucky enough to be able to play with some "Cupcakes" from our sponsor Limited Runs Digital. The winner will be able to choose 3 images from the Limited Runs Digital Stamps Store.

I have made a new shape, that my friend Ellen at Crafters Companion tought us on Wednesday evening. I have used some paper with butterflies for the bottom of the card. I have used some blue mirri-card, I have bought at the NEC last November.

For the "Cupcake" I have used my Spectrum Noir in the following shapes.
Ladybird : 120/100 and my sakura pen
Cupcake : 38/11/LG1
Flowers : 53 and 11
I have cut some glitter paper to put "around" the flowers, to do "as if" it was a real cupcake. Hope you like it. Can't wait to see what you will come up with "Cupcakes".

I am off to bed now, as I have to get up early to take Mathilde to school and after back to hospital with my loved one.

I will enter my card in :
DYSU : Something with wings

Spring time and last DT challenge for me at Gingerloft.

Afternoon from a very rainy Sunday.

It's time for a new challenge at Gingerloft, and this fortnight we are doing "Spring".....Even if today it looks more like autumn here....Lol!!!

I used a stamp from Tamy at Gingerloft Stamp shop and have coloured it with my Spectrum Noir. I put it on copper mirri-board to have a small border. I made a tri-fold card, and on the front I have put copper mirri-board with some butterfly "scrap" paper and add some ribbon. I than just add a sentiment.

As my partner and my mum have some health issues, this challenge is my last one for Gingerloft. I had a great time creating for Tamy and the team, and will try to join them again in the challenges, just for pleasure. Time is flying and between the different appointments, I don't have as much time as I used to, to be able to "do my job" as a DT correctly.

have a nice end of day.
