Madison Attitude - Kenny K Stamps - Winter Wonderland DT

Good morning and welcome to the first challenge of the year for Winter Wonderland.  It's not my week to post but I wanted to join in the fun too.

There have been many changes at Winter Wonderland over the past few weeks.  Lynsey and Deborah have stepped down as DT coordinators, and to prevent the blog closing Alison and I have taken over running it.

We didn't know what we were taking on until we were in the thick of it, trying to sort out teams as we had lost a few people over the past 3 months. Fortunately we had a DT call in October and took the name of our new members from those entries.

The list on the side of the blog should be up to date now and we will be welcoming the new 'Snowflakes' before next weeks challenge.

The other major change that we have made is around when winners are announced.  Over the past year one person chose a challenge theme but the next person actually chose the winners, strange I know.  So now our challenges will continue to be on Fridays but the winners will be announced on Mondays after that challenge has closed.

Phew, now onto my card for this week.  I chose to use the uber cute 'Madison Attitude' from Kenny  K for our theme of 'Spring is in the Air', which was chosen by Alison, and

 what better thing to do than shopping in spring sales.

Sorry the lighting isn't very good but we haven't seen sunshine in the North East for a week.  She is cut using a TL oval with two mounts behind her.  The papers are from Nitwits. Card Candi, ribbon and rose from my stash.

She is coloured with Triamarkers, Flexmarkers and Promarkers, and I added the background with my Ebrush.

The inside does match the front, but reversed.  The sentiment was computer generated.

We have 2 generous sponsors this week,

Michele Roos who is offering a  €10

voucher to spend in store

and

Kenny K Stamps who are giving three digi's of your choice from their store.

I am entering the following challenge ;-

Moving alone with the times challenge # 11 - Spots and Dots

I hope you have the time to check out the fabulous cards the Icicle Ladies have made for your inspiration this week, you can find them here.

Naughty Nurse - Kenny K - Winter Wonderland DT

Good morning everyone, and welcome to my new follower, so glad you joined us.  Today is the start of a new challenge at Winter Wonderland where the theme is 'Lot's of Layers'. Don't forget it doesn't have to be Christmas themed at the moment.

I used the really cute 'Naughty Nurse' image from Kenny K, who is one of our sponsors this week.

Now wouldn't the men love her to be nursing them.  She is coloured with Promarkers and then fussy cut and added to straight cut layers. The papers are from Nitwits. Matt gold mirror board and ribbon from my stash.

She is coloured with promarkers.

The inside does match the front. I was lucky enough to get 3 of the new lace dies from Joanna Sheen before they sold out. These dies are amazing. Designed to match to make long pieces and they literally drop out of the die when cut.  The Sentiment was computer generated, and mounted on a SB long scalloped rectangle.

As I said Kenny K is one of our sponsors this week and he is offering the winner 3 digi's of their choice from his shop

Our other lovely sponsor is Little Claire

Prize details to follow.

My other teamies have made some fabulous cards for your inspiration this week, I hope you will take the time to check them out here

Thanks for taking the time to look

Mistletoe - Kenny K - Winter Wonderland DT

Good morning everyone, as you are reading this I am enjoying (hopefully) the sunshine in Egypt again. Hope the weather is being a little better for you than it was last week at home.

Today is the start of a new challenge at Winter Wonderland where the lovely Lynsey has chosen the theme of 'Layer it up' so we definitely want to see a few on your creations.

We are being sponsored this week by Kenny K and I chose to use the glam 'Mistletoe' for my card.

She is cut using the middle SB Snowflake view die and mounted onto red co-ordinations card. The backing papers are from Nitwits. Sentiment from LOTV. Icicles from Cheery Lynn and trees from Dee's Distinctive dies (I think, sorry if I am wrong) Ribbon, gems and brad from my stash.

She is coloured with Triamarkers, Promarkers and Flexmarkers. I added Flowersoft and Glamour Dust to her fur, and glossy accents to her eyes, lips and belt.

The trees have a coating of snowtex to the edges and I dotted all over with white pen.

The inside does reflect the front.

Now back to our sponsor, Kenny K is offering 3 digi's of your choice to the winner.

Don't forget we are a Christmas challenge site so your card has to be Christmas related.  I hope you will have a look at the fabulous cards the other girls have made for your inspiration this week.

Thanks for taking the time to look

Handyman - Kenny K

Good afternoon everyone from a windy, cold, wet and miserable North East England. Definitely a day for staying indoors.
Today's card is a request from a friend and I have chosen Kenny K's handyman as he is always pottering around their house 'trying' to do things :)

I cut around the image to make his stand out from the backing papers, which are from Nitwits. All mats are just straight cut. Sentiment is computer generated. Tool charms I think were from Mei Flower, and I added coloured card candi to the corners. The brads are from my stash.

He is coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Prisma Pencils.

The inside reflects the front.

I am entering the following challenges :-

I love Promarkers challenge #135 - Occupations

The Crafty Pad challenge # 189 - Inspired by a song (I'm your handyman - James Taylor)

Allsorts challenge #173 - Inspired by a song (I'm your handyman - James Taylor)

Delicious Doodles challenge #3 - Use Metal

Thank you all so much for looking. Back tomorrow with my first card for the Passion for Promarkers DT.
