My next bedroom project is going to be a little trickier than the last

I enjoyed painting my sons room so much that I decided to go the whole hog in my daughters. I am attempting to paint wall murals around the room. This is what I've done so far....
I started by painting the wall blue and adding some clouds all around the room.

Then I sketched a castle and started to paint it pink.

This is the main body of the castle finished, sorry about the photo, but I couldnt block out the sun as I have taken the curtains down.

Next I painted the turrets, flags and a door

A closer look.

Finally I painted in some windows...

and added some highlights...

and Voila !! A fairy princess castle

Another batch of Christmas cards

Tried to keep these plain, so they were quite quick and easy to make. I bought the stamps from The Hobby House when I visited the Papercraft Show at Harrogate Showground last month.
I stamped and coloured with Promarkers and although you can't see on the photos, I used stickles on the snowman, Santas beard and Rudolphs antlers and nose.

So I would like to enter these in the A Spoon full of Sugar #124 - Sparkle and Shine and also Stamp Something - Time to Celebrate challenges.

More Christmas cards

I enjoyed making the card in the last post so much I decided to make some more using the same sketch. I'm trying to get a good stock of Christmas cards ready in time for a few local church and school craft fairs I will be attending. Thought I might group these together in a box or pack to sell.

How does your garden grow

Yet another image from the Moments in Time stamp range. After water colouring the image I used a little Flower Soft on the grass.

The edge was punched using a Martha Stewart punch and the card was finished with ribbon, flowers and charms. Not sure which DP I used, its probably one of the K&Co range.
I would like to enter this in to the Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge - #77
