Just Magnolia Challenge

Just managed to get this card done in time for this week's challenge at Just Magnolia, which is to use charms. I decided once again on a Christmas card, I used Tilda with a wreath and coloured with Sakura and Whispers pens. The papers are all Anna Griffin apart from the one with the script on which is from my stash, I cut the corners on the Cuttlebug with the Quickutz corner die and layered them together. I added a snowflake, greeting, ribbon and a wreath charm.

Say it With Flowers

At last I managed to get a tag done for Frankie's Challenge at Dragons Dream. I made the background by painting various colours of Cosmic Shimmer, and then stamping flowers from an Elusive Images set with black Versafine. I finished with some Prima flowers layered together with a spacer and pearl in the centre, I used my branch punch to add some greenery and finished with a butterfly charm and ribbon.

Have a Merry Christmas

I started this card yesterday morning before two of my granddaughters came to stay for the weekend and managed to finish it when they left today. I really need to get started on Christmas cards so was quite happy when Rainbow Lady's Challenge this week was "Christmas with a Pet". I used a Penny Black stamp coloured with Whispers and Sakura pens and edged with Brick Red distress ink pad, the papers were Daisy and Dandelion Christmas Collection. I added a Prima holly, ribbon, Father Christmas charm and greeting.

Truly Scrumptious Challenge

As the weather is a little cooler today decided to make a card for the Truly Scrumptious Challenge, which was a sketch by Sharon and to use some neglected stamps and papers. The stamp is by Hero Arts and have not used this for a few years, I stamped in black Versafine and used some distress ink pads round the edge, the papers I think are from Dovecraft, I found them in one of my paper boxes. I cut the photo corner with a new Quickutz photo corner die, the paper flowers are from my stash with pearls added.

Pretty in Peach

Finished this card off today for the Charisma Cardz Challenge which this week no theme, no sketch. I used a Gorjuss Girl stamp from Sugar Nellie, coloured with Whispers pens, the papers are Porcelain by Basic Grey, I used the doily punch (yet again!!) cut the flourish on the Cuttlebug with a Quickutz die. I added ribbon, flowers, buttons and a metal butterfly embellishment.

Just Magnolia Challenge

Weather is not as sunny today so found time to make another card, this is for the Just Magnolia Challenge the first time I have entered but couldn't resist Bev's sketch. I coloured the image with Whispers markers, the papers are Urban Prairie by Basic Grey and Kelly Panacci. I used the lace doily border punch and the branch punch, flowers are Prima and Crafts for Occasions.

Sugar Bowl Challenge

My card today is for the Sugar Bowl Challenge which is a sketch and to use the colour kraft or brown and cream. I used a Sugar Nellie stamp coloured with water colour pencils, Sakura pens and Whispers. The papers are all brown and cream from a Daisy and Dandelion pad, I added brown and cream flowers and a greeting.
