CPS & CAS-ual Fridays

Hi there,

Well I have some rare 'me time' today so I have made this card very quickly (about 5 minutes) for two challenges this time. 

I am using this sketch from CPS-Card sketches.  I am also using this challenge from CAS-ual Fridays.  I made the background paper with Rangers Perfect Pearls Mist in Forever Blue on watercolour paper.  I then swiped the edges with Faded Jeans Distress ink.  The bird cage is a Hero Arts stamp.   The "table" is coloured with distress inks (I can't remember which ones) on water colour paper & cut with a Martha Stewart punch.  I used Copics Y35 & YR63 on the flower in the birdcage.

Thanks for stopping by & Happy crafting everyone xoxoxoxoxo

Sunshine & a card

Hi all,

Yes I'm still here ;). I don't think I will take sunshine for granted ever again. We are the lucky ones really. Other than localised flooding in all the usual spots (no where near us), which we knew about, there isn't any major damage to the Sunshine Coast at all. Plus for the last three days we've had Sunshine & it's been wonderful. We still get the occassional rain shower, but nothing like it's been.


As you can see I made another card with those scraps (I seem to have a lot of scrap!) I guess when you're on a roll - go with it?! I am hoping to do some more cards this week. Em starts back at Pre-prep so maybe I can squeeze some work in whilst she's at school & Lil' is sleeping.

Hugs to you all & Happy crafting everyone xoxoxoxoxo

Thank you cards

Hi every one,

I just thought I'd post a few cards to cheer myself up, after that last gloomy post. These two cards I thought might be ok for Jay Gee's Nook's latest challenge.
I loved the colours & the fact that my scrap "bucket" had a lot of these colours in there. So it was a good thing all round.

I also want to thank both Alice & Dawn for their wonderful help in giving me tips on how to use this new version of blogger. I'm so grateful for your help - huge hugs to you both :D xoxoxoxoxo

TTFN & happy crafting xoxoxo
