Favourite Colour Combination

Hello again! Well, 1st of the month, which means it's time for another fab challenge over at Eclectic Ellapu! It's my first one for quite a long while, but it feels great to be back!

This month we would like to see your favourite colour combination! I have many, but blue and brown seem to be the flavour of the month for me at the moment! This card is for a dear friend who retired from work last year, and is off gallivanting around the world! I have popped it through her letterbox so she will pick it up the next time she is home!!

What I have used:

Papers - My Mind's Eye Remarkable Day

Sentiment - Molly Blooms

Flowers - Martha Stewart punch Hydrangeas, Cosmic Shimmer Pearl PVA

I would like to enter the following challenges please:

Alphabet Challenge - S for Stitching

Double Click - Polka Dots

Thank you for stopping by, and please join in our fab challenge at Eclectic Ellapu! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!!

Love and light

Time...

Hello All! Wow, two posts in two days - yes, I'm feeling great thanks!!

Last day of half term, back to school on Monday, so I'm making the most of my time and spending it in my craft room! Today's card is to send to a friend who recently retired, got the all clear from cancer, and has just found out that they are going to be grandparents! It's more of a catch-up card to say that I'm thinking of her and all her fabulous news!

I have just discovered the UnstampaBelles challenge blog, where you create things without using any stamps at all! It's always good to have cards on hand that don't have any sentiments on them, and you can always add them later if you wish - a small tag attached to a paper clip for example! Anyway, the theme this month is 'Time', so hence the inspiration for my card!

What I have used:

Papers - My Mind's Eye (Unforgettable 'Story' Tale Paper), Tim Holtz Coredinations Pine Needles and Broken China

Clock - Tim Holtz Weathered Clock, Stampendous Aged Silver Frantage

Lace and brad - Hobby House

Flowers and leaves - Marianne Creatables, Magnolia DooHickeys and Joy Crafts

Pearls - Ranger Liquid Pearls

I would like to enter the following challenges please:

UnstampaBelles - Time with shabby chic twist

Fantastic Tuesday - Monochrome

Crafty Card Makers - Cut it out

Thank you for stopping bye - DT challenge tomorrow!!

Love and light
