The Secret To Staying Young

I just thought that this sentiment was perfect for this image.  I used some enamel dots which I am sadly running out of.  I hope I can find some more as their flatter surface makes them user friendly for posting.

CRAFT Challenge - Birthday
https://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com/2020/05/challenge-555-7th-may-2020-annual-blog.html

I have used a digital paper from Trimgym for the background.  The image is from Trimgym and the sentiment is one I printed out some time ago and didn't record the source.  I also added the enamel dots.

So Delicious

After two weeks of being able to get takeaway coffee only, there will be many in New Zealand who would agree with this.  As from today, shops can re-open provided that they maintain the physical distancing and limit the numbers in store.  I'm not in a hurry to go out as I think initially the shops will be very busy.

Jar Of Pansies

I have tried to get some cards finished today.  I have been very hit and miss with my ability to do card making recently.  I had a bout of the "can't be bothered" today - which was more about the housework than anything else but did affect my whole mindset for the day.

Jan's Digis - Anything Goes
https://jansdigistampschallenges.blogspot.com/2020/05/may-challenge-anything-goes.html

I have used an embossing folder and Metallic Gilding Polish to create the background.  The pennant shape is cut from an offcut piece of printed paper which was the exact width I was looking for.  The image is from Jan's Digis and is coloured with copic markers.  I added a white bow which I coloured with a copic marker to match the image.

You're So Sweet

I'm cutting it fine again this month with the progressive challenge at Limited Runs.  Half of the other time I have no idea what day of the week it is let alone which date of the month!

I have used a paper from a paper pad called NitWit Collections.  The image is from Limited Runs and the sentiment is from Doodle Pantry.  Colouring is with copic markers and Wink Of Stella.  I added some Glossy Accents to the eyes too.  I also used some satin polka dot ribbon and a puff sticker on top of a foam glitter circle.
