A Few Challenges together!

Evening Everyone!

Hope you've all had a good day, I had to take today off as the heater in my kitchen is broken, & having it working really comes in handy for drying clothes in the winter, keeps the kitchen lovely & warm & stuff dries much quicker! He came about 4pm - glad I waited in ALL day then lol!

Whilst I waited I deceided I would make a card t join in with a challenge, this one actually fits into two challenges so I didn't do too bad now did I??

First challenge is Three Clovers - this week it's a sketch to follow, I LOVE this sketch & will use again & again!! Next up is Color Create their colors this fortnight are blue, silver & white!

All card stock is from the paper mill, cuttlebug snowflakes embossing folder, snowflake charm from the works, Max & Snowman stamped in memento & colored with pro markers & Cuttlebug snowflake cut & glittered, sentiment printed from PC.

I am thinking I LOVE using charms & may get more as I got a pack of 6 from the works for only £1, the chain was from Fenwicks at £1.50 a metre & jump rings at 99p - I think it was all quite good prices or am I wrong??

Color Create # 18 Colors of the Rainbow

OMG I have been such a bad blogger since I went back to work. I have hardly made any cards.

So to try & get back into the swing of it I popped over to Color Create, challenge 18 & the theme is Colors of the rainbow, with the extra option of create a scene.

Well was that perfect or what 'cos I had a new Magnolia Spring butterfly background just waiting to be inked up.

Card blank from my stash, blue card from the Paper Mill, paper by DCWV, Magnolia Tilda, Scene & butterfly stamp all stamped in Memento & colored with Pro Markers, Papermania greeting stamp.

Off to see if I can come up with anything else before The Apprentice final - my vote goes to Kate!

Color Create - Blue & Green & Magnolia Down Under Thinking of YOU!

Well it's taken me ALL afternoon to come up with this lil A6 card - can you believe something so small took so much time!

It might be because I'm so used to using square cards that I didnt know how to fill one - well thats what I'm telling myself lol! I've deceided as that I could supply a small Clinton's store with my blank card blanks I'm going to use them up before I buy some more, which also measn as I use soooo many square ones they're running out & I'm NOT going to buy any more until my stock of "other" ones is smaller so get used to anything but square from me lol!

Anyway Over at Color Create the theme this week is blue & green - I LOVE these colors together & as soon as I saw the theme I knew I would use this Tilda with the raincloud. This also works well for the Magnolia Down Under challenge of Thinking for You. Card blank is craft tonic, green kiwi coredinations cardstock, papers by DCWV, ribbon from my stash, Tilda & raincloud by Magnolia & colored with Pro Markers & Diamond Stickles.

I've done the inside too - I know a while back I said I was going to do this more but I do a card, then say I'll do the inside later then I'm lft with a MASSIVE pile & dont want to decorate the inside but this time I've done it all together :D

Ohhhh Come dine with me is starting off to watch that & see what else I can come up with tonight

TTFN! X x X

Over at Color Create the challenge is to use the colors red, cream & chocolate. I thought I wasn't going to be able to join in at first as I didn't think I had anything Chocolate but tada I found some stripe paper - Im classing it as Milk Chocolate !!

All of the card stock is from the Paper Mill Shop, Paper is Daisy & Dandelion & Forever Friends, ribbon from my stash (that covers the extra option for ribbon on your card too) & Tilda as been colored with Pro Markers, "Best Wishes" greeting is a FREE stamp I received on the front of the latest Do Crafts Creativity Magazine - FAB or what???
