Stepping Out with Jocelyn

Good morning everyone, these Sunday's seem to come round so quickly and it is another challenge from the team over at

CD SUNDAY

I have scheduled my post as I will have been to Telford at a Stampin Up meeting on Saturday and no doubt will be very tired after an early start.

Good to see your entries for 'Curious Cats' as chosen by Wynn, I have enjoyed visiting you to leave comments on your blogs.

I made my choice for my challenge of 'Layer it Up' - you didn't make it easy for me but I have decided on my TOP 3 so pop over to CD Sunday to see if you are included.

I have a small prize for the winner.

For our challenge this week, Jocelyn is

STEPPING OUT

Lots of scope for this theme so I look forward to seeing your designs

This is my DT Card below

I made an 6 x 6 Card using backing papers from 

Ooh-la-la-Creations CD Shoes in Bloom.

2 sheets of  Lilac Pearlised card were used to print off two different designs.

One piece I cut diagonally and attached it to the edge of the card.

My beautiful shoe was printed directly onto Vellum Paper and attached with White Butterfly Brads from my stash to white Pearlised Card

 I have these so long I can't remember where I bought them from.

A little Parchment work has been done in one corner, must confess I have had this topper made for such a long time and the Parchment work was done when my eyes were better than they are now.

I hope you will join in with us, please remember to use something from a CD in your design and give credit to the CD you use.

See you all in two weeks

CD SUNDAY CHALLENGE - IF THE SHOE FITS

Good morning to you all and welcome to our latest challenge over at
CD SUNDAY
Thanks for your entries in last weeks, nice to see new bloggers taking part.
For our challenge this week, we, the DT's chose
IF THE SHOE FITS.
We have Jocelyn as our Guest Designer for this month, do take a look at her blog, she does beautiful things and this week so has done us proud.

For my DT card I chose to use the lovely CD from Ooh-la-la-Creations which is all about Shoes in Bloom.

I printed one of the backing papers onto 'snake' like card which I had in my stash.

My beautiful topper has been printed on Vellum and then I added a little bit of parchment work using one of my Parchment Grids of butterflies. (What a surprise for me!!)

This has been attached by Brads to some lilac pearlescent card, my sentiment was computer generated onto the same card and cut round with deckle scissors.

My finishing touch was of course a lilac butterfly.

We hope you will join in with us again, remember our rule, please use something from a CD and say which it is you have used.

Do take a look our our blog as the rest of my teamies have some beautiful things to share.

Rainbow Lady's Challenge 139

Good morning and welcome to the latest challenge from Rainbow Lady

Our challenge this week is -

ALL ABOUT LOVE

and is sponsored by Chi Chi Memories

Our design team have been given some beautiful images to work with along with lovely sentiments.

I chose this beautiful heart which I manipulated in a graphics program and changed the colour from black to a lovely shade of red. This was printed onto Vellum paper before embossing parts from the back to make the heart stand out.

My lace effect border has been done using a parchment template. I thought it was time I gave this wonderful craft an airing, so you may see more in other challenges.

Both of the lovely sentiments are from Chi Chi and fit this challenge perfectly.

I added a butterfly embellishment from my stash.

Pop over to our blog and take a look at the rest of the DT's cards, also join in with us as we love seeing and commenting on your designs.
