My Challenge Card

The Challenge

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,

Here we are again on the best day of the week, 'why'? I hear you ask, the answer is..

Because I get to share 'YOUR' work and I find it so inspirational.

So let's get straight to it.......

Michele

Michele shared a card all the way from the USA! The Categories Michele chose are: 

Ribbon/Flowers/Embossing

A lovely shaped card Michele, a great card showing how to make a small stamped image fit a larger card with some clever matting and layering. Thank you for thinking about the challenge while you are on holiday my lovely.

Margaret

Margaret has used the 'Sketch' part of the challenge to create a beautiful Christmas card, all of the elements of your card work perfectly together, I love that shaped label punch, I see you have used my favourite 'Ribbon Border Punch' too, I have had to put mine away so I don't keep using it!! Haha.  I know you worked so hard to fit making this card in this week Margaret, thank you so very much, your effort truly is appreciated.

Lilian

Lilian, oh Lilian!! Your stamped/water coloured image is just so pretty, I think red, white and green make a PERFECT combination, please tell me what the stamp set is ? It looks like you have stamped onto linen effect card which gives a great textured look, Lilian chose the Categories. ..... Flowers/Embossing/water colour. Thank you so much Lilian.

Val

Val has designed a Christmas card for this week's challenge, choosing the Categories: Tags/Embossing/No patterned paper. I love your embossed background, did you use the 'Apple Blossom' folders?,  a pretty poinsettia set beautifully upon that pretty Spellbinders oval die, the large flag really tied the whole card together.  Thank you so much for taking part Val, I hope you have a fab trip to UK, I so wish you were going to be near enough for a quick meet up! Remember minimum clothes = more room for craft shopping!!!

Fantastic Girly card Karen, thank you so much for taking part, I bet Nicki loved her card.

Janet

Janet has designed a stunning birthday card for this week's challenge using categories:                                                                 Embossing/Ribbon/Flowers

The floral paper you have used is absolutely gorgeous Janet, 

It can be hard to use something that busy on a card but teaming it with the Pinpoint Embossing works perfectly, I love the z fold card shape too.  An absolute stunner, thank you so much my lovely.

Cheryl

Cheryl it is so lovely to have one of your fantastic cards in our line up this week, you have used the Sketch as well as the Categories: Tags and Embossing to make a fantastic Male card,

That football/boot die is amazing, such detail. It works perfectly with the background paper too.  Thank you so much for taking part this week.

Brenda

Brenda has made a beautiful Birthday card this week, she has used the Categories:

Embossing/Ribbon/Flowers

I might just have to buy that John Lockwood Frame Embossing Folder Brenda, it is lovely, I love how you have shaded the edges of the embossed area, leaving the centre highlighted which draws your eye into the sentiment, you have matched your gorgeous pink ribbon perfectly to the Felt Flowers, they are so tiny and so perfect, I love them.

Beautiful colour combination, beautiful card! Thank you so much for taking part my lovely.
