A recipe at Bizzy Bec's

Hiya Peeps,

I'm running a bit behind schedule at the moment, the awful flu virus has struck my office and my daughter, and we have been so busy that I am drained to say the least. It's probably only a matter of time before it attacks me and as I have managed to miss the last 3 colds going around the office think I'm gonna get hard when it does so I'm bracing myself, lol. To top it all I have had to go food shopping on a Saturday, not good!

Now I've bored you sufficiently I'll move on to my card today which is a recipe over at Bizzy Bec's HERE, of 3 flowers, 2 buttons and a ribbon.  Nice and easy.

Tilda's Flying Through The Air at Bizzy Bec's

Hi Peeps,

It's been snowing more here, brrrrrrr, wish I could say I have done all my Christmas Shopping but I haven't got a thing yet, but I'm sure the internet will help me out, lol.

Today's card is my first one for Bizzy Bec's. The theme for the month is "Christmas", yayyyyyyyyy, I'm sure this is going to be a popular one!

I have used the flying Tilda, which I know Bec pre-ordered but has currently sold out. Saying this Bec has set up a "customer choice pre-order service" for the Magnolias so that you can get your hands on some of the older Magnolia's that are not stocked in other stores.  Just click HERE to add to the order or if you don't see what you want, just contact Bec and she'll be happy to assist.

I have gone Marianne Design Dies mad using the frame and also the circular doily.  Underneath the Marianne Design Die Cut I have used a gorgeous doily again available from Bizzy Bec's.  These are soooo superior quality to the ones that I have.  Bizzy Bec's have several designs including square and heart shaped and are soooo reasonably priced.

The gorgeous flowers and leaves are also available from the Bizzy Bec's store and can be found HERE.

The sentiment has been stamped and perfect pearls pigment powder added.  This changes colour in the light and is gorgeous.

Tilda has been coloured using copics and prisma pencils, my favourite medium, well for the moment!  Her wings have of course been glazed with star dust stickles available from HERE,

The papers are from Bearly Mine Design using Christmas Delight.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:-

Quixotic - No Square or Rectangle

Diecut Christmas Club - Use a Diecut

One Stop Craft - Christmas Cuties

Magical Mondays - Wings

Craftycatz - Christmas

Sweet and Cute at Bizzy Becs and Some News

Evening Peeps,

Well I have some exciting news for you......... I've made the Bizzy Becs Design Team, woo hoo.  Now I officially start with the December challenge but couldn't resist making a card for the current challenge, "Sweet and Cute".  This is a monthly challenge so you have until 30th November to get your entry's in and the prize is a fabulous $25.00, so see you there.

The card I have made for this challenge started out as an experiment for the background, which I got a bit carried away with. ..... None the less I think I like the outcome.  Then, to add to my experiment some prisma pencils landed on my desk.  Oops, how did that happen?  Well what is a girl meant to do......... so I have done all the shading with my new prisma's, what do you think?

Isn't she just the cutest.  I ams sad to say that Bizzy Bec's doesn't stock Hanglar but I am sure when you check out the store you will see all the other cutie stamps like the Magnolias, CC Designs, Bildmalarna, Whiff of Joy, Wags and Whiskers to name but a few.  I am sure you all have cute stamps so don't miss out, pop over to Bizzy Becs challenge and check out my new teamies creations and the fabulous prize on offer.  You know what they say, you've got to be in it to win it!
