                                           * COLOURS/INSPIRATION from the photo


Easy Peasy right? This week our lovely sponsors are Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and Debbie's Paper Sweeties:) I used Pumpkin Magic and You're a Superstar(Paper Sweeties) Play along and you could win 5 digital images from Robyn's or one stamp set of your choice from Paper Sweeties.


I went with the fall theme...used Crafty Secrets digital papers and Prima notecards..


Fussy cut felt leaves, with their stitched veins make me smile..

the WHITE challenge...TSTR #133

Happy Monday to you! Are you ready for another Shabby Tea Room challenge? This week Lenet has challenged us to a WHITE challenge.. She asks that we create a card or project and use:
                                              
                                       *WHITE + ONE ADDITIONAL COLOUR
                                       * you can include additional neutrals (Black, cream, kraft, brown)

This week Debbie's Paper Sweeties are our sponsor.. I used "You're a Superstar!" set for my project. Play along with us this week and you can win 2 sets of your choice!


For my project I knew I wanted to add lots of different layers and textures, it being a white challenge. White on white can tend to get lost and blend into each other.. So, I started with an impression plate for the background and went from there.


Doily, embossed borders, flowers, beads and pins.. seam binding ribbon... all yummy additions to the card. I added the sheet music as my one other neutral colour (black) just to highlight the bird cage and other details.


Make sure to stop by the other Shabby Girl blogs to see what projects they created with their Paper Sweeties stamp sets!

labour of love...TSTR #130

It's MONDAY! Time for another Shabby Tea Room challenge. This week Debbie asks that we use:
                                    *COLOURS FROM THE PHOTO
                                    *INCLUDE A BANNER



Isn't that a fab photo! Love! This week Robyn's Digital Stamps is our fabby shabby sponsor. Play along with us this week and you could win 5 digital images. Debbie's Paper Sweeties is our second fab sponsor and you could win 1 stamp set!


I used the cake image from Robyn's for my little party bag. I was inspired by the large paper medallions and the banners of course. I had to dust the sweet cakes with some yummy glitter...

Hope to see you all in the Tea Room. Stop by the other shabby Girls blogs and leave some love!
