Challenge 13

Crafter's Companion Challenge 13 is Here Comes Summer. My card is a large scalloped Craft UK card. The yellow cardstock is by Papermill and the backing paper is from Crafter's Companion Guys and Gals CD. The Sarah Kay image was stamped with Memento ink and coloured with Promarkers and set on a Spellbinders label diecut. The wooden sun and butterfly are from Create and Craft and are coloured with Promarkers. The sentiment is LOTV and is set on a Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Motif. The flowers are from WOC and the leaves are cut with a Crealies die.

Back to normal

This is my first card for a few days because we've had our sons and DsIL here helping us to celebrate Eric's 70th birthday. Yesterday we had a BBQ and they've all gone home now so we are having a relaxing afternoon and evening.

The large quare white card is from Craft UK and the navy blue card is from Papermill. The grey/silver glitter backing paper is from my Desert Blooms pad. The corners and fancy bottom edge were cut with my Spellbinders Parisian dies. The image is by Sarah Kay, stamped with Memento ink and coloured with Promarkers. It's cut with an oval nestie and backed with a scalloped nestie. The navy blue organza bow and diamante buckle are by Joanna Sheen and the flower is from WOC.

The card is to be entered in three challenges:
Crafting for All seasons - Anything Goes
Simons Says Stamp - Sparkle and Shine
Crafty Sentiments - Childrens Cards

The Ribbon Girl Challenge

The Ribbon Girl Challenge theme is Pinks and Lilacs and this will be my first card in this challenge blog. My card is a large square white card by Craft UK. The backing paper is by K and Company and this is matted on to cerise Mirri board. The Sarah Kay stamp by Stampavie was stamped in Memento ink, coloured with Promarkers and cut with a Spellbinders rectangle nestie die. The scalloped nestie is in cerise to back the image and two of  the Parisian Accents are used - one corner piece and one fancy die cut which I've used to back the sentiment. I've used two ribbons, a wide cerise organza from Joanna Sheen and a narrow pink one from Create and Craft. Three small cerise gems from my stash finish it off.

Crafty Sentiments Challenge

The Crafty Sentiments Challenge is Buttons. My card is a small Craft Uk square card with  a matting and layering of Swiss Dots embossed white paper and pale blue Papermill card. I used my new (which I love) Spellbinders Parisian Accents dies to cut the border and the two corners. The Sarah Kay image has been stamped with Memento ink, coloured with Promarkers and cut with a rectangle nestie, backed with the scalloped nestie in the pale blue. Three small Create and Craft blue buttons are top right.
