For You

 

Hi everyone how was your weekend?

 

Mine was great!  I caught up with a friend of mine I have know since were 5 years old and every time we catch up it is wonderful.

 

Our children all played together and it was nice to get away for the weekend.  I think sometimes we forget to stop and just enjoy times like this.

 

That was my weekend but now on to the card I have created for two challenges.

 

The sketch challenge from Create with Connie and Mary and the current Play Date Cafe Challenge.

 

 

 

From the picture inspiration at the Play Date Cafe I have used Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Pear Pizzazz and and Very Vanilla.

 

I have used Riding Hood Red for the base of my card and I have also used some of the Botanical Gazette DSP from the Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue.

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Nature Walk, Clearly for You

Card: Riding Hood Red, Old Olive Very Vanilla
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Pear Pizzazz

Accessories:  3/8” (1cm) Very Vanilla Taffeta Ribbon, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

I used a dauber to add a touch of Cherry Cobbler to the edges of the DSP.

 

I love the image of the butterfly on the DSP, they just seem to be flying in the background.

 

Thanks for visiting again, please come back soon.

 

Until next time keep creating…. Meg x

Hello Blossoms

Hi everyone,

 

Hope your weekend is going great….. :)

 

I have created a card based on the Colour Challenge from Picture Perfect Creations # 54 and the sketch layout from Sketch Saturday # 149.

 

Both inspirations are below:

 

 

 

I have used Melon Mambo as the base of my card and the new Hello Blossoms stamp set from the Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue.

 

I think my card is close to the sketch and the colours from the combo challenge look great together.  Of course I have added my favourite “bling” with some of the rhinestones.

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Hello Blossoms

Card: Melon Mambo, Basic Black, Blushing Bride, Whisper White
Ink: Basic Black, Blushing Bride, Melon Mambo

Accessories:  5/8” (1.6 cm) Whisper White Organza Ribbon, Mat Pack for paper-piercing, Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

A happy little card – don’t you think?  Leave me a comment and let me know.

 

Keep creating…. Meg x
