Wednesday's Challenge entry - Anything goes!

I love All that Scraps online shop, they have all the gorgeous CC Designs digi stamps and I have quite a few of them now. Their challenge is here http://atsblog.typepad.com/wednesdayschallenge/2012/06/anything-goes.html if you'd like to join in. It still has a few days to go and as the challenge title says "Anything goes".
So here's a card I've made using one of their digi stamps (Cupcake Birgitta) to buy her here's the link - http://www.allthatscraps.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&keyword=cupcake+birgitta she comes in digi and rubber format. I love the digis as you can print them so easily and change the size of them. I've also used the Spring bench digi from their store too and coloured them both with copic markers.
FWAB products used: Trent's fence (inked black) and Jack green vine

Bunny Zoe challenge - Girls, girls, girls

Here's another great challenge blog I've found http://bunnyzoescrafts.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/challenge-25-girls-girls-girls.html and this month's challenge is girls, girls, girls, can't get much easier can it??? I mostly make girly cards so here's my card for the challenge:
The papers are Echo Park and I've used FWAB pearls. The cute stamp is a The Greeting Farm stamp and I stamped her onto the patterned paper as well so I could cut out her top and hat and attach them to her making it a little bit 3D.
Thanks so much for looking,

Crafter's Companion monthly challenge

Another easy challenge for an FWABBer (Flourish with a Bling lover) as all we make is embellishments! And I love adding as many as I can on a card lol, if you want to join in they have a great prize up for grabs http://ccmonthlychallenge.blogspot.co.uk/ so here's my card for this competition:

I made the assorted flowers with my retro flower punches, inked and doodled on them. I made the clouds by making a cardstock template and then brushing chalk upwards lightly.

Today....

Hope you're having a great weekend! I have 2 layouts to upload today, one boy and one girl layout that I did with the same paper brand - My Mind's Eye (although the timber style paper is from a different range). They have a similar design but hopefully you'll enjoy the difference between the two.

I have used FWAB Chloe antique gold and baby blue flourishes on these layouts.
Thanks for looking,
