My Friend Sketch

Morning everyone – hope your Monday is a good one to start the week. 

 

Not like mine last Monday, I left my wallet at home so I had no money for lunch or a Driver’s Licence, it was not good but that was last week – we are on to a new week and new challenges :)

 

Below is a copy of the sketch from The Diva Coffee Break Designs Challenge # 219 and you can visit the site if you click on the image.

 

 

 

 

For my card I have taken the colour inspiration from the Elegant Soiree DSP and I have used Basic Gray as the base card stock.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Perfect Punches, Punch Potpourri, Vintage Vogue, Bliss

Card: Basic Grey, Baja Breeze, Very Vanilla
Ink: Soft Suede, Baja Breeze, Crumb Cake

Accessories:   Scallop Square Extra-Large Punch, Boho Blossoms Extra-Large Punch, Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die, Elegant Soiree DSP, Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have added a little bling and accessories - this was a great challenge so quick to make the card!

 

It looks good but the card is a little large then normal but I don’t mind.

 

What do you think, give this challenge a go too - it is a winner.

 

Keep creating….. Meg x

Inspired by Nature Challenge

Hi everyone,

 

We are so close to the weekend!  But I don’t know about you but my is already planned and will be non-stop!

 

 

 

 

 

I have not used the Inspired by Nature stamp set for a while, so I have used this set when I created my card for the Just Us Girls Challenge # 74 - JUGS74. 

 

I have placed a copy of the sketch with this posting or you can visit the Just Us Girls site if you click here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have used Pear Pizzazz for the base card and I stamped the long grass on the base card with Pear Pizzazz ink.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Inspired by Nature, Bliss

Card: Pear Pizzazz, Chocolate Chip, Peach Parfait,  Whisper White
Ink: Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron

Accessories:  Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, 1/2” (1.3 cm) Pear Pizzazz Stitched Poly Ribbon,  Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It seems a little like the grass is moving and the light breeze is just taking the butterfly along for the ride!

 

Have a wonderful Friday…….. Meg x
