Autumn Glory

I made this card last saturday and I cant believe it has taken me so long to post it!! I should have an excuse but Ive just been busy and then a bit lazy, my bad! Anyway I need to do this quickly as Im off out tonight so I will get to the point.

Its a birthday card for my sister in law from my parents, technically a commission, haha! I bought the paper a little while ago because I thought it was lovely, but I wasnt sure what I would do with it until I found the butterflies on sale and saw the challenge at One Stop Craft ChallengeBut I going to be bold and enter it in this months By the Cute and Girly too. The designs already entered in both challenges are 100% fabulous and make me feel a teeny tiny bit inadequate, but blow it Im still entering.

I hope you like :)

Tuesday Morning

Another card that is soon to be (if not already) finding its way across the equator to the family in South Africa. It is also my entry for the weeks Tuesday Morning SketchI did plan it to be landscape, but my Mum prefered it portrait.
Supplies Paper - Dovercraft (butterflies) K & Company (green)

Letters - Making Memories

Card - from the stash

I really really enjoyed working with this sketch its so versatile and pretty; Im working on a Christmas card in the same style.

Ive got other cards to post about, but its been a busy weekend and I still want to have a look at other blogs, so Ill have to save it for another time.

Promised pictures of the Papertake Challenge

Okie first things first here is my entry for this weeks Papertake challenge. Its such a dodgy picture and to be honest Im not that keen on the card anymore, but I said Id post it. Ive not made a card using these colours before I usually use blues, pink and pastel colours so I thought I would challenge myself with something brighter. Most of the paper is from a stash I have collected and never quite known what to do with, I looked for the name on the back of the green leafy paper and realised Id cut it out and stuck on the card, oops! The rest of the green paper is from Kit 'N Kraft summer collection, the same as I used on my brother's birthday card. The lettering is the same too. I made the pink and yello butterlfies.

I also mentioned a get well card I made (to order), here it is. This one I am soooooo pleased with.

Once again it features the gorgeous Alfie, this picture was taken just after hed had a holiday at the vets, so it was perfect for a get well card. This was for my Mum's cousin who lives in South Africa, she has five cats!!! I love the fact that one of my cards is now making its way to the other side of the world. I used the K & Company roam papers like I used for Big Bro's other card.
