More Scrap Creations

Thanks to the school holidays, I've managed to squeeze in more playtime! Once again, I put these cards together using scraps left over from another project. There's something really satisfying about using up your scraps ... possibly the fact that it comes with the feeling that I can justify buying more papers because I've used some up (although I know that if I never bought another piece of paper again I still have more than enoughto keep me going for years - but where's the fun in that???)

So here's my scrappy cards...








Thanks for stopping by :)

Another Challenge

I have to say, I am now completely hooked on challenges. After enjoying participating in the Mojo Monday sketch challenges I've decided to go for it and try Makeesha's Colour Challenge.
So here is this weeks Inkspirations Colour Challenge...


And here's what I created...


I just love this "Wild Rose" stamp set, and in all honesty I haven't used it for ages so it got a good dusting off and today our passion was reignited!! I found these colours really nice to work with - they are very pretty and elegant colours which worked well with the roses.
I'm just so impressed that I got the housework AND some stamping done today...all whilst having three children at home!!

My Latest Workshop Wow!

Here's my latest creation that I demonstrated and my workshops over the weekend. I have to confess it is a complete CASE from a card of Monica Gale's which you can check out HERE. I absolutely love her work! I've based my colour choices completely on the colours in the "Ginger Blossom" paper that I've used (so I didn't even have to think!!). The stamps are from the "Embrace Life" stamp set from the Summer Mini Catalogue and also "Happy Thoughts" from the main Catalogue. The image was coloured with ink from the Classic Ink Pads (Cameo Coral, Ruby Red and River Rock) and a Blender Pen. I was really pleased with how this turned out, and especially happy that it was so quick and easy to make!! I think I'll make myself up a few more with some different greetings to have on hand.

Thanks for looking :)
