On a roll

 

I am on a roll today. I made this quick card using the theme from The Paper Players. As soon as I read the theme I knew the paper and die wanted to use. 

I used paper from Trimcraft, Memory Box poppy die, Cuttlebug Dots embossing folder and a sentiment stamp from a mag and finished with Liquid Pearls. 

I am entering this card into the following challenges:-

The Paper Players - Basic Black, Smokey Slate, Daffodil Delight

Inspiration Station - yellow, dots and flowers are my inspiration

The Paper Funday challenge - Die cuts and punches

Just for fun

 

When I saw the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches I just had a lovely idea for a card.

Funny how sometimes lots of inspiration comes along at once, then mojo disappears for ages. Today has been one of those days when ideas come flooding in and I have some spare time to play.

I made this card with off cuts of card and dies add a stamped sentiment and a few Liquid Pearls. The patterned paper is Bo Bunny

AYLI challenge

 

Welcome to our new AYLI challenge. This one is hosted by Annette.

Lili of the Valley

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 

Your Favourite Style: Simple or Fussy (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

I don't think I am either simple or fuss , a little middle of the road. This card is probably as fussy as it gets. I always feel if I add too many embellishments my cards become a bit of a clutter.

I have used LOTV papers, Promarkers, Cuttlebug Dots embossing folder, Spellbinders scallop circle, Globeland bird stamp and die set and a free sentiment from a magazine. 

 I am entering this card into the following challenges:-

We Love Stamping - spring

Inspiration Station - inspired by yellow

Sweet Stampin' - Spring or Easter
