Totally Papercrafts challenge


This week's challenge theme has been chosen by my lovely friend, Susan, and she has chosen a nice and easy theme -
For A Child

(this can be anything from a birthday card for a child to a congratulations on the birth of your child... as long as the papercrafted item is to be sent to a child I don't mind!)
And we are sponsored this time by ..



Meljen's are offering 4 digis of the winners choice to the winner!


It will be my neice's birthday soon ... can't believe she is going to be 8!!! I have used this  cute Magnolia image, that bear is adorable!  I only bought it recently, and this is its first inking - how bad is that!!  Having coloured the image in using my copics I die cut it out and added stickles to the edge and around her feet.  The dp is Basic Grey Eva, I so love these papers, and am sadly running out of them :(.  I liberally distressed and stitched them, even tearing some of it  *GASP*.  I added some muslim, flowers, lace and ribbon, and a button heart to finish.  The sentiment is from Craftwork Cards.

Challenges:
Pile it on - stitching
Craft your passion - bingo (distressing, flowers, buttons)
Crafty Cardmakers - stitching and lace
Oldie but a Goodie - show us your ribbon
Addicted to Stamps - bingo (circle, free, birthday)
Stampavie - sparkling
Crafts and me - roses
Divas by Design - layers
My Mum's Craft shop- hearts and flowers
Moving along with the times - girly girly and prim and proper
Inspire me Friday 
Fat pages and Cards with Attitude - anything goes
Just add ink - children's card
Just Magnolia - What's new
Delightful - distressing
Stampin for the weekend - feeling floral
Crafty Catz - buttons
