Sunny Birthday Wishes

Good day

Well a week ago I requested this special digi from The Outlawz called Sunflowers by Sheepski Designs, owner and artist Andrea Norris. The Outlawz are celebrating their 7th birthday!!! Wishing them all the best for the coming year!
Since I thought I'll have ample time to play this week, but I didn't. Luckily I was forced to stay home today and used the time productively. Paper is is from Graphic 45 called French Country. I once had a friend whom was very fond of sunflowers. She used to say that when every she drives past pastures of sunflowers she thinks of how much the farmer loves his wife and that tend to stick with me whenever I see sunflowers. 

Challenges I'm joining:
Tuesday Throwdown #380 - Sketch
Crafty Catz #405 - Anything goes
The Outlawz 7th Birthday Bash
Penny's Paper-Crafty #368 - Anything goes

Thank you for your visit!
Hugs from Africa!

Creative Moments #137

Good day

It almost feels like heaven to have internet again....I just hope this time it will last much longer then the last time of 2 days! With my internet down I was also a bit reluctant to craft, though I did keep up on my DT projects over at Creative Moments. This is Gluteus Maximus from Dr Digi, one of our sponsors this fortnight. The theme is Tell a fairy tale or anything goes. Well since I only have boys, I'm not much into princesses, I'm much more into Asterix and Obelix. From there my choice of digi.
The designer paper is from W&M and I played around with different dies from Spellbinder and Marianne's design. My boy gave me the sentiment.

I used the following challenges as inspiration:
Cheerful Sketches - February
The Sisterhood of Crafters - A banner year
Colour Crazy Craft Wk8 - Anything goes
Aud Sentiment #197 - For a friend
Crafting with an Attitude #36 - Antything goes

Hope you'll pop by at Creative moments and come and tell your fairy tale.

Thank you for you visit!
Hugs from Africa!

Creative moments #136

Good day

Cannot believe two weeks are done and dusted again! We all know that it is time for another Creative Moments challenge! The 1st of February was World Compliment day and on the 10th it will be National Umbrella day, some very interesting themes. I used one of Lia Stampz images that is called "Make a wish baby elephant"

My boy and I played around with some options and I decided I'll incorporate both themes. I used my umbrella dies from Poppy stamps. The rain drops I added as well as the sentiment. Paper is from Kaiser Craft's Paradiso.

I used Sweet Sketch Wednesday's sketch by Katie.

There are a few sponsors this week so pop by and join in the fun at Creative Moments!

Hugs from Africa!
