GDT @ Tuesday Morning Sketches

If you are looking for the Joanna Sheen blog hop post, you will find it HERE

 

Hi and Good Morning :)

 

Now I think I can count one one hand how many times I have had a blog post on a Tuesday but I was so delighted and absolutely thrilled when my good friend Theresa asked me to be a GDT for the Month of October over at Tuesday Morning Sketches - I LOVE sketches ! :)

 

Sooooooo, onto the sketch:

 

 

I used a 7 x 5 card blank and layered Olive green bazzil card and K&Co paper scraps.  The gorgeous Hummingbird die is Cheery Lynn, the other dies are a mix of Nellie Snellen, Spellbinders and Cheery Lynn and the border punch is MS.  The cute image and sentiment set are Tiddlyinks.

 

Thanks so much for looking at my blog today, I will be back again tomorrow (Wot? 3 days running - lol) so I hope everyone has a smashing day ! :)

Charisma Cardz - Pink & Black

1st Post of the Day

Morning :)  Busy week for me this week, as I have 2 cards to share today.

My first card is for our new challenge over at Charisma Cardz where this week our theme is 'Pink & Black'. Very glam and girly eh? :)  We are sponsored by the brilliant Simon Says Stamp and the fabulous Pink Cat Studio, so excellent prizes up for grabs this week and well worth playing along!

I used a supercute Tiddlyinks image on my card, and Fizzy Moon papers.  I also tried faux stitching for the first time (as I couldnt find my black thread!) and I felt such a cheat, but I was quite pleased with the result, so will definately do it again.  The dotty ribbon is from Joanna Sheen and the dies are a mix of Doo-Hickey, spellbinders and Marianne. 

I will be entering this card in the below competitions:

Bunny Zoe's Challenge - Ribbon or Twine

Totally Papercrafts - Saturated Colours

Fussy and Fancy Challenge - Punches & Dies

Paper Playtime - Anything Goes
