Beach ATC - Frosted Designs Friday Challenge

Its Friday! and have spent today out with a friend where we had a fish pedicure! Which was interesting to say the least lol

SO to continue on with flexing my crafting muscles, I've been perusing some new blogs and came across this one:

This week its their first birthday, so doing a blog hop (awesome way to pick up inspiration, def. 1 LO which I'll be scrap lifting at some point lol) as well as their weekly challenge which is:

Recipe Challenge:
1. Ribbon/Trim
2.Charm
3. Rhinestones/pearls

While considering, this character was spotted in my folder of uncoloured images and after hopping through a lot of summer feeling craft ideas, made this!

This is me, last weekend after getting sunburnt! lol

Simply Purr-fection...

3 day weekend, so gonna flex my creative muscles by doing some blog challenges! The first two that complement each other are:

Cupcake Craft Challenge 149 - Single Layer Cards & I ♥ Promarkers Challenge 73 - Clean and Simple

Now if you flick through my blog you will see that I'm not a single/clean/simple person LOL so this was a challenge, but it was actually really easy and I just LOVE my card that I've made! Taking inspiration from Faye on Cupcake Craft and her gorgeous boat card I've made the following:

I tell ya, that BIG blank white space is kinda taunting me but I think adding anything more to it might just ruin the simple purr-fection of it :D lol

Promarkers used: Lavender & Lilac

Stamp used: Docrafts, Pampered Pets

Teen Birthday (Pollycrafts Challenge 100!)

I once knew a little girl... that little girl now turns 14! on Sunday, where has the time gone. I'm sure it wasn't that long ago I was sitting up New Years Eve with her as a screaming 6 month old baby lol

So to celebrate I've made her a teen birthday card with a bit of a rock theme :D using Pollycraft image "Cherry Kisses - Whatever!", it even kinda looks like her lol
