Perfect Day

Good Morning,

Ardyth over at MASKerade has asked us to create a card based on Your Perfect Day for this weeks One Layer Wednesday Challenge.  Ardyth has come up with a fabulous card for this challenge.

Me and Hubby only got married last year and that was pretty perfect, so I have chosen that as my Perfect Day, although I do have a few others I could have chosen.

Supplies Used:
Papercraft Inspirations - Wedding Images
Stampin Up - Love & Laughter - Sentiment
Stampin Up - Dazzling Details - Silver Sparkle

Close up of sparkles, doesn't photograph too well though

Just out of curiosity, what do you all do with the cards you make?  I now have more than enough to keep me going for years, so just wondered what everybody else does with theirs.

Keep Calm

Good Evening,

A really quick and simple card tonight.  This weeks Cue Card word over at CASology is Game! Arrrgh this one kinda stumped me a bit, then I remembered I had a Keep Calm which was sport related.

Supplies Used:
Pink Gems - Digi Stamp
Sizzix Embossing Folder
Dimensional Stickers

As I said, a quick and simple card.  Might have another try at this challenge later in the week if something springs to mind!

Muse Week 2

Good Afternoon,

For this week's Muse challenge I wanted to pick just one aspect of the card as my inspiration and as soon as I seen this weeks wonderful Muse Card I knew I wanted to use the colours of the flowers and leaves.

Supplies Used:
Stampin Up - French Foliage
Tim Holtz Distress Ink
Inkduster
Stampin Up - Sentiment

This is the Muse card this week, by Suzanne Dalhberg. Isn't it fab!

I am really enjoying this new challenge blog, it is a refreshing change from normal challenge blogs. I also like voting from members of the challenge for that weeks favourite.  If you haven't joined in yet, I certainly recommend doing so.

Think that's it for today.

Something New

Good Morning.

Today's card is a bit of my comfort zone, for some reason I am not as easy using just neutrals in my cards. I always want to add a bit of colour somewhere.  However this weeks challenge at Dynamic Duos is to use neutrals, so I decided to challenge myself.

Supplies Used:
Inkadinkado - Fern Leaves
Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Pumice Stone and Frayed Burlap
Stampin Up - Twine
Stampin up - Sentiment
Nestabilities

I am not sure of the end result, but I thought I would share it with you anyway and enter it into the Dynamic Duos challenge and also Pixie's Craft Snippets - Week 57

Off now to carry on watching the tennis.  Come on Andy!
