Cupcake Craft Challenge 127 DT and challenges

Hello all! I hope you are well and had a nice weekend? How about a little Cupcake to start the week nicely? Our lovely Faye has a fab theme for you this week... "Old MacDonald Had a Farm"! So, your card must include something found on a farm! The challenge is being sponsored by Crafty Emma's Store who is kindly offering a fab prize of sentiments and ribbons. And thanks to the Icing on the Cupcake, you have 3 more chances to win with our fantastic sponsors - Blue Jelly Stampin' offering fantastic Stampin Up! stash, Polka Doodles who are generously giving their Sundae of Seasons CDRom and The Paper Shelter a $10 gift certificate!

Bonjour à toutes! Que diriez-vous d'une petite pâtisserie pour bien commencer la semaine? Chez Cupcake cette semaine, Faye a choisi le thème inspiré par Old MacDonald Had a Farm, ce qui veut dire que votre carte doit inclure quelque chose que l'on trouve dans une ferme! Nous sommes sponsorisés par Crafty Emma's Store avec un super prix de sentiments et rubans, et pour la Cerise sur le Gâteau et encore plus de chances de gagner, nous avons toujours nos 3 sponsors du mois de janvier: Blue Jelly Stampin', Polka Doodles et The Paper Shelter!

Let me show you the image I used first... Je vous montre mon image d'abord...

Why am I showing you the image first? Well because there is nothing else to see LOL... this is the most "CAS" card I have ever made:-)! Pourquoi d'abord l'image? Parce qu'il n'y a rien d'autre à voir LOL... C'est la carte la plus simple que j'ai jamais faite...

That's all for now! I am really behind with visiting you and my in-laws are coming for a week, so I am afraid I will not be able to visit you as much as I'd like to! I am doing my best, please forgive me if I haven't reached your blog yet, I will eventually! J'ai beaucoup de mal à vous rendre visite en ce moment et ma belle-famille arrive pour une semaine, donc j'ai bien peur de ne pouvoir vous laisser autant de commentaires que je le voudrais! J'espère que vous ne m'en voudrez pas trop et vous rendrai visite dès que possible! Bisous!

The 12 Days of Fluffmas Candy

Hello all! How would you like a little bit of candy? Well there is some to be won at Faye's place! All you have to do is answer the 12 Days of Fluffmas questions, post your answers on your blog then leave your name here! There are some answers I really don't know, but, as promised, I will do my best. Here they are... 

1. How old is Sweet Cheeks? 2 years and almost a month old.

2. What is the name of my Mum's Blog? Confessions of an Alien (here I tried to include a link to her blog, which I googled but I landed on some Italian girl's blog... Is your Mum Italian?)

3. What are my favourite colours? (Clue; they're not what you might think they are!) Well, I don't have a clue. Not blue and pink, maybe purple and brown?

4. We recently moved, but from which county? From Devon.

5. How many posts did I write in August? 16 posts (that's a lot!).

6. Which two Challenge Blogs do I play on? Sweet Stampin and... er... oh yes, Cupcake Craft Challenges!

7. When is my birthday? (Clue; I was on holiday!) Er... Why, oh why is there no "countdown to my birthday" thing on your blog, Faye!

8. What is my favourite crafting item? Not freebie papers, maybe twine? (Well you said, "beloved twine" on your 8th November post...)

9. Name the alternate reality I inhabit? Faye world. (Here I would like to thank Mr Blogger for inventing "About Me")

10. I love this as much as crafting, what is it?  "cakes, choklit & ice-cream" with stars on top (I know you love stars!)...

11. What do we refer to my Dad as? (Bonus stash if you can tell me what his remedy for anything is?) Doc Shingles (his remedy is to  'take a bottle of White Lightening (cider)').

12. Once Upon a Time, I had a career in? You were a Pastry Chef and Restaurant Manager.

Well, I hope I am not too wrong... I guess I will know soon... The 12 Days of Fluffmas Candy is open until 6th January, so you'd better be fast!

Hugs,

Delphine xx

Christmas Candy Challenge

Hello everyone! I hope you are all well and had a wonderful Christmas! Maybe you think Christmas is over, well it is not! My friend Samantha has Christmas Candy and to be in the chance to win, you need to show her something you have made for Christmas, but NOT a card! So here is my entry... My sons and I made some biscuits on Thursday, very simple biscuits but a tradition for our Christmas holiday... Some biscuits, actually not some but a lot of biscuits... always very nice when you start, not so nice after 2 hours in the kitchen LOL!

Bonjour! J'espère que vous allez bien et avez passé un bon Noël. Vous pensez que c'est fini, et non, pas encore... Mon amie Samantha a un challenge un peu différent (avec candy à la clé!) et vous demande de montrer quelquechose que vous avez fait pour Noël, mais pas une carte! Pour moi, c'est les petits sablés basiques, faits avec mes garçons!

BEFORE...

AFTER...

Have a great evening, thanks for stopping by and see you soon! Bonne soirée et à très bientôt! Bisous,

Sugar Nellie WOW Competition

Hi everyone! Tonight's card is for the Sugar Nellie WOW competition, White On White! To enter you need to use a Simply Sassy image and use no colour other than on the stamped image. And the prize is... WOW, take a look...

 A Spellbinder Grand Caliber and an offer of a place on the Simply Sassy DT! Unbelievable, I know, but true... And there are also chances of winning a choice of 12 Sugar Nellie stamps! You can have full details HERE. There are some amazing entries, but now is the time to try, so I am trying:-)

Bonsoir! La carte de ce soir est pour la compétition de Sugar Nellie! En jeu, le merveilleux prix ci-dessus, la possibilité de rejoindre la DT, et aussi de gagner 12 tampons Sugar Nelllie! Rien que ça! Que faut-il faire pour participer? Faire une carte avec un tampon Simply Sassy et n'utiliser de la couleur que pour l'image, tout le reste doit être blanc! Détails ICI et pour entrer votre carte, c'est LA! Il y a des cartes superbes, mais c'est le moment de tenter sa chance, alors je tente!

Here is my card...

I decided to leave the background totally white too:-), don't know if I was right... And the close-up and recipe...

J'ai décidé de laisser le fond tout blanc aussi:-), je ne sais pas si j'ai bien fait... Gros plan et recette...
