Challenge

There was a challenge at our local craft store to use certain papers (Will have to remember what they were called OOPs) so this is what I cam up with. I love it.

It is a pity that the photos just don't do it justice.

Had a ball of a time making this card and felt so happy I had made something that I liked.

Dare to color Challenge WMC63

This weeks challenge theme is "DARE TO COLOR". No less than 4 colors used in your creation.

Once again I saw Tracy put in for the challenge and she inspired me. So thanks once again Tracy. How do you find all these wonderful challenges :-)

Card: SU Whisper White, SU Basic Black
Stamps: SU French Foliage
Ink: More Mustard, Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, Early Espresso
Other: SU Champagne Mist Shimmer paint

Leaves leaves and more leaves

I like this card. The SU French Foliage is such a versatile stamp set. I like the card above as it was simple but effective.

The card below I decided to use a couple more of the SU French Foliage stamps to adjust it slightly, and also changed the colours of the leaves on the ribbon.

Quite proud of these cards...

I am not a big fan on pinks of any kind and so..... a friend and I tried to make a card with the Watermelon, Sorbet and Lime and try "The Play Date Cafe challenge #93" .... and I must admit the Sorbet (which looks like a little bit like it is pink) is not my favourite colour lol.

Enjoyed making this card in the end. Hope you enjoy. Please leave some comments... feeling a little loney lol.

Some randoms

I really like this card. A couple of weeks ago I made this card and a friend came over and I showed her and my son how to make it. It was such a simple card. I don't usually go for brown cards and usually like bright cards but this makes me happy.

There are so many beautiful cards and card makers out there and sometimes I get so argghhhhhhh knowing which ones to keep going back to. I want to read every single blog out there but I can't. I don't know how anyone does it. Thank you for stopping by and commenting it is so exciting to get to my computer and see a comment... I am like a kid in a candy store lol.

Wanna see some more cards? Ok lol will show you some more :-)

The same friend I was talking about above showed me the pink concept of this card. Usually I go for the oranges and yellows for a sunset or rise but the pink is perfect. How cool is this card. Thanks my friend for showing me this. Love this card.

Ink: SU Rich Razzleberry, SU Melon Mambo, SU Regal Rose, SU Basic Black

Patterned Paper Color Trends Challenge

I have been so busy the last couple of days and I have made quite a few cards and will put it up in the next couple of days but this card from the patterned paper color trends challenge was made tonight.... wohoo....

I really loved the colours and was so excited to get in my room and create, but alas it is 10.15pm and I need to get to bed as I have work early in the morning. (Thank you Tracy your card was certainly inspiration to check out the site and try the challenge).

Please leave a comment as it makes me feel great and like my cards are worth it.

I have been looking at a lot of blogs lately and isn't it amazing how when you first start a blog peoples cards are ok but as they do it more and more their cards just keep on getting better. So much to learn and so little time LOL.

Enjoy.
