Shades of Red

31st January 2011
I had to make a card using "Shades of Red" for a swap I am in so I have made this card using a gorgeous Magnolia Stamped Image and I have used this weeks sketch from Friday Sketchers which I really liked the layout of. I've used Bazzil cardstock as the base as well as some gorgeous embossed paper I have had for quite awhile as well as some ribbon, a little heart charm and some heart punchies!I've used my Spellbinder Nestabilities to cut out the shape around Tilda. I hope the "recipient" of my card likes it!

I am also entering this card in the "I Did It Creations Challenge" this week which also has a "red" theme! As well as that the challenge over at "There's Magic in the Air" has an elements challenge - from their 'board' of elements I have used "ribbon, bling and something punched". Magnolia Down Under Challenge required a card using some form of embossing and as this card has several pieces of embossed paper I decided to enter this card in their challenge as well!

Easter Card

January 24th 2011
I've just made this Easter card for the new Bugaboo Challenge this week which is themed "Winter Whites" - I've decided to do an Easter White Card as here it's the middle of summer and I'm not feeling very "wintery"!
Also I Did It Creations have just released their Challenge theme for this week which is "A Card for a Child" so I think this fits the bill to be entered in their challenge as well!

Feeling Blue!

January 17th 2011
Here is my Blue & White card for the Bugaboo Mini Challenge for their 1st Birthday Week! I just love this gorgeous "Wedding Image". I've used the "He Loves Me" embossing folder again as I think it goes well with Wedding Themed cards and have embossed some pale blue Bazzil Cardstock.
I can also enter this card in the I Did It Creations Challenge Blog as they are also having a "Blue" patch!!!
I have to admit that I don't use a great deal of blue in my cards but I think I might have to start as I am really happy with how this has turned out! Hope you like it.
