Felt is very popular these days, and I've seen lots of lovely little felt creations so decided to have a go at making something myself!! This felt is <i>lovely</i>, it's by Papertrey Ink, cuts like butter. Of course the plan in my head completely changed once I sat down to make it, but I like how it turned out anyway - sorta soft n pretty n girly - and NO pink or red in sight!! lol </div>

Not much of a challenge you may say but when you get stuck in the rut of making the same old same old....anyway, turned out like this!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Happy New Year to one and all!! I couldn't believe how long it's been since my lost post - wow, the time has just flown by!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today's new theme at <a href="http://craftycreationschallenges.blogspot.co.uk/">Crafty Creations Challenges</a> is:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Something New</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was lucky enough to have an American holiday just before christmas and was able to help santa choose some (ok LOTS!!) fab pressies for me!! So this was a great opportunity to play with some of my new toys!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I got this Front & Centre Die from Papertrey Ink - I used it to make a little gift bag. (I'm going to make a few more of these to house little cupcakes)! Got that Bazzill Basics card stock in the sale so that's new too!! Once I made the little bag, i thought it needed a card to go with - so voila!! I used another new edger die on my card. The sentiment SWEET is from a new Papertrey Ink stamp set - I mixed it up with a MFT sentiment on the card. The Simple Stories paper pad is not new - but it had't had enough love yet!! lol</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As always we have a very generous sponsor, <a href="http://robynsfetish.com/shop/">Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps & More</a> is offering a prize for one lucky random winner - so why not show us something NEW?! bx </div>

The new challenge at <a href="http://craftycreationschallenges.blogspot.com/">Crafty Creations Challenges</a> this week is:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Wise Words</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So many beautiful quotes all we ask you to do is choose one and feature it on your creation! you might stamp it, or print it out, or handwrite it - it's up to you!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I chose to stamp this lovely sentiment by Penny Black. I had sooooo much fun creating this background after being inspired by a card I saw on the Hero Arts blog recently. I've heat embossed, added colour using distress inks, spritzed some shimmer - and I love the result! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week we are generously sponsored by our very own Deena and her digital company <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/acreativeneed">A Creative Need</a>. So for your chance to win, all you have to do is join the fun!! bx<br />
