Scrapbook Boutique challenge

Morning addicted card makers....This is my card for the Scrapbook boutique monthly challenge for October, just making my post by the skin of my teeth...but I really wanted to have a go as black and white are not my favourite colours to work with...the inspiration are the challenges gorgeous black and white flower cup cakes...and I do like flowers. I couldn't resist adding a smug of dusty pink :)

Mojo 212, Christmas

Crazy 4 Challenges C4C110

Happy weekend everyone...
I was inspired by Barbara Anders lovely autumn leaves card at C4C 110 challenge  to make this one layer card.  http://crazy4challenges.blogspot.com/2011/10/crazy-4-challenges-c4c110.html  I tried scoring some grid lines on my card but ended with them inverted so will remember next time which side to score them on. Thanks for taking a peek

The Play Date Cafe challenge 104

Yesterday I was checking out my friend Vikki's blog and noticed the Play Date Cafe challenge blinkie, then on checking it out saw that their colour challenge for this week  was Mauve, Egg Yolk and Artichoke....well with Greens and Purples being my favourite colours how could I not have a go... here my take with the colours on a Christmas card.....this stocking is a Stamps Happen stamp with fine intricate lines and I found it quite hard to colour with my water pencils. Now to put a blinkie on my blog  :)
Thanks for taking a peek.
