PRIZE ONE -

All Dressed Up Digi's
Hi I am Wendy Burns I live in Nottingham UK with my husband and two children who have been the inspiration behind the characters, in particular my daughter who has kept me up-to-date with blogging and trends. I work predominantly within the textile children’s wear market, fashion and interiors.
I trained as a textile designer and although my work is digital based, I love to retain that hand drawn /sewn feel which I hope comes across in my artwork.
Digital stamps is a new challenge for me and the opportunity to work with the All Dressed Up Team and has been very exciting, in particular the creative way my characters have been given individual personalities by the designers .
We have a friendly Facebook page, regular blog posts, tutorials, challenges and freebies .The stamps can be purchased from the Etsy shop which is updated on a monthly basis.
We really are friendly bunch and would love to see your creations so please feel free to contact us and visit the All Dressed Up Challenge Blog.

Mothers day at Charisma

Good Morning again,

Wow 2 cards from me in one day :-)

It is challenge time again over at Charisma Cardz & it's the turn of Team A to strut our stuff. The theme is Mothers Days & my card is the card that i gave to my Mum for Mothers day this year.
I thought i would use something a little different for me & that is kraft card, i had forgotten how good it looks with the right papers.


I have used Tilda Rose Sent & coloured her with Pro Markers. The papers are of course from Lili of the Valley and it is the Beach Bliss pad & the sentiment is from their Happy Circular Sentiments collection.
