Round and Round and Round,

I really had fun making this card this morning, I knew that I had to use a stampavie stamp and circles or rounds, so just let me mojo flow, the sarah kay image was sent to me by a friend, as I dont own any stamps myself yet, (on my want or should I say NEED list).

I coloured her in with watercolours and cut her out with a slight edge left round her,used stamping up double sided paper to cut out my lace work on,

added a very large brad, some smaller brads and some round gold coloured gems,

then for the insert I used a brown plain paper, added a green circle and flowers with a couple of green gems this time, to tie in with the front of the card.

When I went through the challenge list I found it suits all of the following,

Hope you enjoy looking at it, as much as I enjoyed making it, and I do love the final item.

Stamp and Smiles Thursday Sketch

This card I really enjoyed doing this evening,

as the colour is my favourite,

and I adore this Sarah Kay image,

I coloured her with water colours,

and then did my take on the sketch over at http://sasthefreshbatch.blogspot.com/

I have also done a matching lilac plain insert for this card.

Back tomorrow with some more cards or crafty creations for you,

Colours, Dry Embossing, and a sketch, - Note Pad

This afternoon/evening I originally set out to make a card for some combined challenges,

I did start with a A5 card, then decided to go down to a A6 but cut it wrong,

So instead of wasting anything, I thought I would do the card with a top spine instead of side spine,

once I had done the cover which is layered dry embossing, in pink and green, and added the sarah kay stamped, coloured with watercolours of pinks, browns, and greens,

All I could think of was note pad, so I cut up some white paper and layered several sheets inside to make this finished project.

This is my entry for 3 challenges, they are

1) colour scheme of brown/pink/green at
