Design Seeds, Sketchbook Saturday challenge #58

  

Well this card turned out to be a bit of fun -so bright and cheery using the Design Seeds - succulent colours and I based it on Chuppas last week Sketchbook Saturday challenge design #58. Thanks for taking a peek

MojoMonday #240, Christmas

  

I started this Christmas card yesterday with a striped scrap I had on my desk - non traditional and used this weeks MojoMonday #240 for the design layout.....bit different. Thanks for taking a peek

the Deconstructed Sketch 51

  

Hi there on this quiet Saturday..hubby is away playing golf so I have free run to do whatever....oh of course that  is spending so Skype time with my friend Vikki making cards.  We've been cruising sites and found these wonderful colours at  Design Seeds, we picked one each to try and I combined the Eggplant colours with the Deconstructed Sketch 51 to make this card....brown earthy shades are definitely not me but I'm pretty happy with the result.  Thanks for taking a peek.

Less Is More

Well today I'm feeling really weird - probably because after weeks of negotiations, finally we know we're off at the end of June to Perth where hubby has been relocated. I really needed some cheering up and so I decided to run with the Less Is More - week 66 colour challenge - Yellow. .......Yellow reminds me of spring and daffodils - I love flowers and especially miss living in a climate where you can grow spring flowering bulbs. Thanks for taking a peek

House Mouse HMFMC 118

Well I've missed the deadline again...oh well, I did have fun making this card - with the challenge at the House Mouse blog to incorportate Tea into the design.

LilyPad

Morning fella card makers....I've had this cute House Mouse stamp for a while and with the Rainy day theme from LilyPad-Simon Says challenge what a great opportunity to use it...oh only IF we had spring/autumn showers where we live...still I mustn't complain our overnight temps are in the low 20C and that's glorious for us. Thanks for taking a peek

Mothers' Day card

This card is for my hubbys mum...it's very similar to the one I posted last week for my mum, just changed the colours.  I do really like making those flowers - you can really match them up with your colour scheme and these ones are a bit sparkly as I used my twinkling H2Os. Thanks for taking a peek - enjoy your weekend.

Retro Sketches

 

This morning I've made a Friendship card using the Retro Sketches challenge rs#9. The lovely patterned paper was in a bundle with a magazine I bought and then as i'm always using flowers on my cards I decided on a change so these cute little birds were punched with my Stampin Up punch and then randomly embossed with a Tim Holtz folder....hope my Mojo hangs about for the weekend as I have a few birthday cards  to make. Thanks for taking a peek...
