My Graffico and Papertake

I feel like I have been making nothing but Birthday cards recently, they are always needed after all. But now my mojo has returned and I had a bit of variety.
First up is my entry for this weeks Papertake challenge I made a simple, but I think beautiful note card to send to my friend's maid of honour to thank her for my invite to the Hen do along with the cheque for my theatre ticket.



All the delicate flowers were free with a crafty magazine. BONUS.

Next up is my entry for the colour challenge on My Grafico

Brown, Olive Green and Pink. Im not sure who its for, it will join the stash in the draw for now. I used papers from K&Co and Buttons from Basic Grey.

Hope you like.

3 in 1

Remember I said I was asked to make 6 birthday cards for my aunt, well I sent them off last week and 2 days later I had a check in the post along with a letter asking for 12 more by the end of March!!!!!! Im in demand!

To meet this request Ive been busy completing 3 challenges with 1 card. I took my inspiration from My Time to Craft for the theme of cats; Allsorts with the colour combination Pink and Brown, and Papertake for the sketch.

Im not too sure if I actually like this card much, my Mum thinks its great but she has to say that! Im going to work on it for a bit and hopefully post a version I am happier with later, this post will have a kind of before and after section. I do like the cat though :)
Part 2
This is the new and improved version. Ive stuk to just pink and brown added some boarders and dropped the you are. I think for this card simple is better. I finished it this afternoon when I got back from work.

O and I flipped the background, but that was from a happy accident (I got the measurements wrong!!) I still like the cat.
