Cherish at Card & a Half

A lovely sketch by Helen's sponsor this month, Tracey at Platypus Creek Stamping & Craft gave me food for thought, so enjoyed this little card, using stamps & a doily, some chipboard, bling & a Prima flower.

Join in too if you like!

An early Merry Christmas!

I really enjoy making Christmas cards, & Helen Card & a Half Challenge Blog has an Extra # 5 challenge. The criteria wis to make 2 cards using the same papers, in different ways.  I have used this great Websters Page's paper, with some hand cutting to add extra roses to the floral Christmas card, & a big green bow & some coloured hessian on the other.  Very usable cards, that certainly wont go astray.  If you would like you can join in too - just head here.

Thanks for looking...

Happy Days

I just wish I could take a straight photo - hehehee

But here is my card for the lovely Helen's Card & a Half Challenge blog with inspiration from this sketch by the famous Cath Latta!

I really enjoyed working with this one & thank Helen again.

So happy for you......

Here is my card for the wonderful Helen's amazing card challenge blog, Card & a Half.  I used Tattered Inspirations Lady in Red Mini Kit with 2 gorgeous French Rose tiles. I chose to turn the card sketch 90deg & add stamping & lace as the 'embossed' section of the card, do some fussy cutting & voila, a card for a friend! There is a little slip on my stamping...but isn't that life!

The challenge was to scrap this great inspiration - it is a lovely sketch.

I am doing this one on the 11th hour too....where does time go lately!!

I love making male cards...I can use browns & neutrals to my hearts content.

I have made a 'beach' styled card using a lovely Stamp It stamp, inking & matting & generally had a great time working on it! But no embossing!! next time maybe! Hehehe
