Charisma Cardz

The challenge at Charisma Cardz this week is Pink and Brown

And for this I used the stylized flowers embossing folder, Sugar Nellie stamp and a brown rafia flower and pink jewels

Now I must fly and check the dinner I think it might be burning

Carol's Sketch

My funky Hand team mate the lovely Carol has started a blog where every fortnight there will be a sketch- you may have took part when she did it on her normal blog but now she has set one up specifically for the sketches and tips and techniques

So why not join in the fun

This is my card for the sketch and its quite a simple card today but quite fresh

Allsorts

The challenge this week at the Allsorts challenge is Curly Swirly

For this I stamped a curly swirl on the base card in green then stamped a leaf onto white card and used the leafy branch cuttlebug embossing folder on top of that then inked the edges in dark green.

Stamped another curly swirl and cut it out and attached to the bottom added a You're Special sentiment and ribbon with a pin

Cuttlebug Challenge #34

The challenge this week at the cuttlebugchallenge.blogspot.com is to use a current Basic Grey

We all have something from basic grey in our stash so dig it out and get joining in with the challenge this week.

I used papers and chipboard squares from the Archaic range and used the Diamond in the rough embossing folder on core card

The stamped image was courtesy of the lovely Ruth and I used letter to spell out Have a Hoot

Looking forward to visiting to see your BG creations

Penny Black Challenge

This is the sketch this week over at the Penny Black Saturday Challenge and this is my take on the sketch

Oh I know its supposed to be summer and what do I do.... an autumn card ... but that was just what happened

The papers are by K&Co and so is the sentiment

Off now to have a bath and get to bed early for a change

2 Sketches 4 You

This week its Laura's turn for the sketch over at 2 Sketches 4 You and if you haven't already then you need to check it out as they are having a 1st Annual 2 Sketches 4 You ultimate Card Showdown and there are lots of fabby prizes to be won

This is my card that I am entering for the 2S4Y 1St Annual ultimate Card showdown

I realise it might not be to everyones taste but there is something about it I really like(for a change)

I stamped the bird image onto cardboard and highlighted it with white and white chalk, inked the edges and added some glitter

The inside of a card box box idea I pinched from my Funky Hand team mate Carol and inked this and glittered it also and added you've captured my heart ribbon, a flower and a red heart

Hope the photo is ok to see it properly

Thanks for looking
