Blog Hopping with the Bombshells woohoo

It was so much fun to join in with this months blog hop, thanks girls for having me :)

This month Kas has challenged us and here is what she asked for ....

She's a Firecracker Alright!

I would love to see something along the lines of:
1) Red - White - Blue
2) Firecrackers (Bombshells)
3) Military
4) or sparkling like a firework!

so here is my card ...




This gorgeous Bombshell is from the 'mans ruin' set which I watercoloured and added a lot of stickles too (unfortunately it doesnt really show in the photos) I also added 3D gloss to the glass to make it look real. I'm not sure what brand this cherry paper is as someone gave me it, but I absolutely LOVE it !!!! the scalloped edge I made using a Martha Stewart punch and the cherry ribbon I brought at Alley Pally earlier in the year. The gorgeous swallows and scroll sentiment are also bombshell stamps from the 'love and luck' set.

Now why not pop on over to the other very talented hoppers blogs and leave some comments and you can increase your chances of being selected to win the monthly prize package!

Burtonesque Dolls Challenge



This weeks challenge over at the Burtonesque dolls is inspired by Tim Burtons film Ed Wood, so the challenge is to use black and white. I used my gorgeous tickled pink image which is this weeks sponser. The papers and ribbon I found in my stash, the doily edge I made using a Martha Stewart punch. The flowers I made using Tim Holtz tattered florals and dictionary pages which I then screwed up and added a little bat to the centre (the bat is a cuttlebug die) I then added tiny black gems for his eyes.

I hope everyone has a fab weekend xxx
