Puppy Love

How adorable is this new Magnolia stamp.

From the new Love Collection, Tilda with Puppy

will melt lots of hearts.

How proud does Rufus look sitting beside

this cute little pup.

Summer at Roses on Paper has received

another shipment of Magnolia's, so head

on over and add some more stamps

to your collections.

The Basic Grey Paper Pad can also be

found in Summer's shop.

I made my card using this weeks sketch challenge,

SC217, at Splitcoast. After trying different placements

for my cutout images I finally decided to turn the

sketch on it's side.

Anya's Saturday Outing

**

Have you gotten your hands on the new

Greeting Farm stamps at Roses on Paper.

Summer has just received a new shipment,

but be warned, they are selling fast.

**

**

My very talented friend, Susan, has been chosen as a

Guest Designer at Sketch Saturday, so of course I had

to join in this challenge to support my friend.

**

Anya was my stamp of choice for this challenge.

I love the sketch, it was great to work with.

After creating a pink version of Pretty Had Anya

I decided to move away from colours of my usual

comfort zone and try various shades of green and aqua.

It doesn't matter what colour combination you use,

she turns out gorgeous each time.

Hello!!

**

Can you believe I'm on a Design Team and have

hosted challenges and yet other than Splitcoast

I've never actually taken part in a challenge.

Well as of this week that has now changed.

More challenges - less house work!!!!!!

Hmmmm - not sure how well that will go over

in my house but I'm willing to give it a try.

**

**

My card is for the Friday Sketches challenge.

How adorable is this little guy.

As soon as I saw this stamp I was searching

the internet as fast as I could to find a stockist

I tracked Ellie down at

Stamposaurus Stamps in the UK.

At last the wait is over,

the long awaited

Greeting Farm

stamps have arrived at

Roses On Paper,

but be warned, they are flying out the

door faster than Summer can pack them.

**

**

This weeks sketch challenge SC216 at SCS was

just perfect to showcase some of these

gorgeous new images.

Pretty Hat Anya is just adorable, all

dressed up for that special outing.

Included in this set is 7 different accessory

stamps and 3 word stamps

for jazzing up your creation.

Don't forget the Roses On Paper challenge -

Love and Friendship, hosted by Lim.

Summer is generously donating

a wonderful stamp set from the Greeting Farm

to the lucky winner of this fortnights

challenge.

The beautiful assortment of papers

I've used are from Basic Grey's

Bittersweet range.

When you're ordering your Greeting Farm

stamps from Summer be sure to order a

couple of the Basic Grey Paper Pads too.

The 36 sheets of various 6x6 papers are

great value and an excellent way to use all the

Of all the Magnolia stamps I own this is my

first Magnolia stamp that includes Edwin

and I thought together they were just perfect

for the Love and Friendship theme.

and the used H20's with added glitter for the

ice in the lake and kindy glitz (slick white) mixed

glitter for the snow cappings.

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not, He Loves Me!!!!

**

It's Valentines Day, and I'm in Love -

with Daisy!!!

**

**

From the moment I saw her I was transported back

to my childhood home, where I would sit in the

back garden for hours on end, making daisy chains.

And who almongst us hasn't pulled the petals of a

daisy - he loves me, he love me not, he loves me!!!!

Admit it, we've all done it, and not just once, over

and over until we got the answer we were looking for.

**

**

This weeks SCS Weekly Inkling was all about making

this absolutely awesome Acetate Box.

Not being one to follow instructions to carefully I had

to make a few adjustment until it all came together,

but in the end I was thrilled with the final results.

I'm not sure that I want to part with it now

that it's finished.

**

**

**

Now, while I have you here I have to share

the very exciting news that has been

going on around here.

The very, very talented Elizabeth Bell,

creator of Sugar Nellie Stamps,

which includes this adorable "Daisy",

has this week announced she will be working

exclusively with 4 companies.

**

So who are they you ask.

Well 2 of the companies are in Europe and

2 of them are in USA.

The first is

Susana's Custom Art and Card Design

and the second one is

none other than our very own

Roses on Paper.

**

Along with our wonderful leader, Summer, the

whole Design Team has been beside ourselves

with anticipation of this annoucement.

Elizabeth will be providing each company with

their own exclusive “Elisabeth Bell” images so

that no two companies will carry a duplicate design.

I am so excited and honoured to be part of the

Roses on Paper Design Team

and look forward to the opportunity of working

with the wonderful new images from Elizabeth.

Wishing for a Handsome Prince

**

I've been spending so much time with my

Magnolia and Greeting Farm stamps that

I almost forgot I have a cupboard full of stamps,

most of which have collected a layer of dust

from being un-used and neglected.

**

**
This card was a bit of a challenge for me.

I needed a card for a 15 year old girl.

Sounds simple enough, right - wrong.

This girl is totally opposed to all things girly.

Pocket Fun from Stampin Up provided me

with just the right stamps.

Greetings from My Japanese Geisha Girl

**

Geisha Anya is another image in the digital

range from The Greeting Farm.

The digital images are a bit of fun, however I

don't believe you can ever replace the satisfaction

you get from inking up and stamping a rubber stamp.
Keep a look out at www.rosesonpaper.com for

the new range of The Greeting Farm rubber

stamps, arriving very soon.

My two wonderful DT friends, Lim and Susan,

have given me inspiration to make these wonderful

hat pins. Both of them have given me great

information, advice and ideas on how to create these

decorative pieces to add to my cards.

I had been feeling very envious of their shopping

sprees to Michaels to buy their beads, when I came

across a brilliant store right on my own doorstep.

Funky Lulas, right in the heart of Mornington, is owned and

operated by a wonderful lady, Kim from Oregon, USA.

I've made a couple of purchases there already

this week, and I know it won't be long before I'm

back for some more of those gorgeous beads.

Think pink, girly, glittery, glamour

and your halfway there.

Add some flowers and a bit of

bling and you have a card that

any girl would be happy to receive.

creative ability to come up with a very
