Sentimental Sundays Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Sentimental Sundays “Celebrate Summer” blog hop. Tuesday, June 21 is the official first day of summer in the northern hemisphere and we are ready for all the summer fun to begin. For our friends down under who are moving into their winter months and may not feel like creating a summery project, they may be making “Sparkly or Shimmery” projects. What girl doesn’t like her bling

You should have arrived here from Stacey. If you didn't arrive from her blog and would like to join in the hop, please start at the Sentimental Sundays challenge blog.

Here's my take on the Challenge using Bright summery colours and the Summer always reminds me of festivals and partys so why not go musical!

Cupcake Cards n Craft - Royal Challenge and Sentimental Sundays Special Challenge! - DT Cards

Wow what a busy Sunday this is!! Its Cupcake Cards and Crafts new challenge for May which is he theme for May is Red, White and Blue!

This month is to celebrate the wedding of William and Kate and what better challenge than to use the royal colours!

There will be one winner personally chosen as usual for this month's challenge who will receive the 'Patrotic' paper collection.
Also it's the Special Challenge at Sentimental Sundays! The challenge is "Mother's Day" or "For a Woman." The reason why this one is special is that we have an optional challenge of "Craft with a Child." We feel that it's a wonderful thing to be able to bond with a child through crafting and art! even though my wee one is not interested what so ever with card making apart from cutting up scarps of paper and creating a big mess on the floor, i did try bribery with sweets but that didn't even cut it with my son!

For all those who submit something created by a son, daughter, niece, nephew, child next door, etc, you will automatically receive the Krafty Kids Sentiments for the crafty child and the Mother's Day Sentiments for the crafty adult who helped them. If you like, you can grab our button below to help us spread the word about our special challenge :)


So finally here is my card for my Sister in law for her Birthday and i love my kimmies as they are so cute yet quirky which is my SIL all over bless her!

Hey Everyone!Hope you all had a great Christmas day and enjoying Boxing Day! Muggins here is working today!!? At least i don't have to wear my uniform and get fed for free which is a bonus but i'd rather be at home!

So here is my first ever hybrid card, i've designed the card all in GIMP and all i've done is printed it out onto cardstock and i must say it's a lot of fun getting the transparency right and getting the card to look ok.

Well the card is for my hubby's mate they are expecting their fist child in a couple of weeks and i thought i would get the card ready made to hand over and i've gone for bright colours so its neutral but they are having a boy but you never know till the little arrives! so i thought i would playsafe LOL
