Party time

Got some good news and some sad news today.  The good news is that it's launch time at AlDressed Up and there are four lovely images.  The sad news is that I've decided to step down from the team.  I'm increasingly wanting to create with other brands that I don't have an affinity with and do more guest spots as I'm trying to keep fresh and explore my style more. 

But onto the new release!  Here is my make using Just So Cool...

I think she really is just so cool!  A great card for my cool niece methinks.  I was inspired by her tie and found some ribbon that reminded me of my old school tie.  It's been sitting in my stash for years, obviously waiting for this cutie to be created!  I used an American Crafts rub on sentiment and a treble clef using a My Favorite Things die. 

Here are the other newbies in store...

Easter Bunny

Little Flower Girl 

On My Farm

A great collection, huh?!  You can see more DT inspiration over at the blog here. And don't forget you've still got time to join in with our current challenge of monochrome.

Thanks for visiting and I'll be back tomorrow with the start of the SugarPea Designs April release sweet sneaks!

Come sunshine or rain...

There's a new release over at All Dressed Up and it is another super cute set!  The DT are showcasing the beauties and here is my Dressy Girl make using the very sweet A Time To Share digi...

This card didn't turn out anything like I envisaged it, but I think I like it anyway!  I used a variety of dies to create the scene and a My Favorite Things sentiment from the happy set.

You're the cat's meow

There's a new release over at All Dressed Up and it is another super cute set!  The DT are showcasing the sweeties and here is my Dressy Girl make using the very sweet Purrrfect Together digi...

Oh, I just love this kitty kat!!!  I coloured her in with my Prismacolor pencils and matched her up with the flower paper from the Pink Papers collection and a There She Goes sentiment.  You can see more gorgeous Dressy Girls inspiration over at the blog here!

All Dressed Up new release blog hop!

How exciting!  Today is the first All Dressed Up challenge and new release for 2014.  There are four new releases this morning, all now available in the Esty store.  All of the Dressy Girls have got together and created some gorgeous inspiration to show off the newbies with a blog hop!  The theme this month is "anything goes" and here is my make for it using one of the Love To Shop girls...

So beautiful!  I made this card for one of my city friends who has a beautiful sense of style - she is gonna love this!  I matched her up with Bella Gypsy papers and My Favorite Things skyline die.  The sentiment is from the Lili of the Valley Sentiments To Fit Scroll set.

So don't forget to join the hop - there will be two winners who can choose two images of their choice from the store.  So if you're already on the hop, you should have got here from the lovely Lis and you now need to hop off to sweet Viv.  If you need to start at the beginning, go the blog here where you will also find all of the deets.

Enjoy the hop and I'll see you again soon - ttfn!

Tra la la la!

Okay, this really is my last post for today - I promise!  A new All Dressed Up fortnightly challenge has started today and this week's theme is ribbon and/or lace.  I went for both!  And the design team are using the two new release digis in store today and I used the very sweet Tra La La La...

I love these little fellas!!  I used Zoe Pearn digi papers, my Quickutz snowflake embossing folder and Doodlebug rub on letters for the sentiment.

Check out all the deets on the blog here - hope you get a chance to join in for a chance to win your own All Dressed Up digi!

 

Wrapped up warm

Happy Friday everyone!  I'm here with a card that I've made for a friend who is as stylish as this little lady...

Isn't she beautiful? She is from the Three Little Autumn Girls set and I matched her up with the new beautiful Autumn Papers 1.  I used a polka dot embossing folder for the background, some Echo Park letter stickers and finished it off with some orange gingham ribbon.  Not a lot of embellishing but she just doesn't need it!

 

And she also perfectly fits with our current challenge of Autumn Colours / Thanks - check out the deets here on how to win some of your own gorgeous ADU digis!

 

Thanks for stopping by and see you later with my Bellarific Babe card!

 

 

All wrapped up

There's a new All Dressed Up fortnightly challenge starting today and the theme is Halloween.  And we are also showcasing the two new digi images store - Magical Day and All Wrapped Up - they are the cutest!  Here is my DT make using All Wrapped Up...

I love this little fella - soooo adorable!  You can find the newbies in the store today!

Do you remember ra ra skirts?!

Hi everyone!  It's Mary J here and I must admit to being very excited today!  This is my very first Dressy Girl DT post for All Dressed Up and I loved playing with this sweetie pie...

Do you remember ra ra skirts?!  If so, you're probably an 80's girl like me.  But I hear they are coming back in fashion so perhaps I'll have to go out and invest in a new one.  Anyway, enough reminiscing and back to my card!  This beautiful girl is one of the Autumn Girls from the All Dressed Up Etsy shop.

Before I go, just wanted to mention that there is still time to join in with the current All Dressed Up challenge.  Check out all the deets here - I hope you get a chance to join in with us and be in for a chance to win a £5 store voucher!  I'd love to see how you use these gorgeous digis and you can even use the freebie digi which you can get here.

Okay, I really am going now - see you tomorrow with my CC Designs DT post - ta ra!
