Friday Sketchers #36 and A Spoon Full of Sugar #36

Here's the card I have done using the sketch from Friday Sketchers. Really nice to do something other than a square card!! Used some old papers but I actually stamped and coloured this one before making it this time. It doesn't have a sentiment on mainly because I don't have any lovey dovey ones. I also thought that I could enter into the challenge over at A Spoon Full of Sugar which was to make a card for someone special.

Supplies:
Image - Magnolia
Paper - Daisy Bucket
Other - Flowers and brads

Papertake Weekly Sketch #7

A fab sketch over at Papertake Weekly by Dawny. Enjoyed this one and I even got to use my new nestabilities which I absolutely love. Have another two on order and hopefully they will be here soon! Again used some old stash and an image that I pulled out of my box! I can't believe I am actually keeping this up!

Image - Magnolia
Sentiment - still no idea!

Magnolia vs Stampavie # 11

Another go at a non sketch challenge! Am I doing good or what?! This one is for the challenge over at Magnolia Vs Stampavie which was entitled "double trouble" which was to use two stamps. Again used some old stash and images that I'd stamped and coloured ages ago that were just sitting in the box!

Secret Crafter # 16

Here's my card for the challenge over at the Secret Crafter. I normally just do sketch challenges because well they are easier and more inspirational for me! However I challenged myself to do more non sketch challenges. This one was a receipe challenge - 1 image, 2 papers and 3 embellishments.
1 image - check. 2 papers - check. 3 emellishments - check. Now I have to admit I was a little confused when it came to the embellishments. I didn't know whether it meant three types of embellishments or just three embellishments so I put on three types (brads, flowers and gems). I hope this is okay! I was sat thinking about what to stamp and colour and then I pulled out my box of already stamped and coloured images and made myself use one. I have quite a few already stamped and coloured so I thought I'd better start using them up. I also made myself use some old stash. Really pleased with myself that I managed to do this!

Supplies:
Stamp - Magnolia
Sentiments - can't remember!
Paper - Daisy Bucket
Other - Flowers, brads and gems
