Keesh's Sketch Challenge #11

Hi all, this week Keesh has given as the above sketch. I really liked this sketch and had lots of fun creating my card. As you can see I have turned the sketch around, and I'm pretty happy with the final result. Hopefully by Thursday I will have a scrappage to show you too! Thanks for looking.

Sweeties July Sketch Challenge

I've often looked at the Sweeties Sketch blog and wanted to play along. So this month I was determined and created both a scrap page and card. (Mind you I only did the card late last night.) But I'm pretty happy with how they both turned out. Sorry about the quality of the scrap page. Still trying to work that one out!

Keesh's Inspiration Challenge #10

Back again with a quick post of my entry to Keesh's challenge for this week. Recently some friends of ours brought a house so I thought I would use this challenge to create them a 'Congratulatory' card. Nice and simply, yet effective. Thanks again Keesh for the inspiration.

Leah Challenge # 10

The inspiration for Leah's monthly challenge was the above dinosaur bedding. I did a bit of digging around in my craft cupboard and found a Kaiserstamp of a dinosaur - lucky hey! I've also used Keesh's sketch from this week's challenge. This is what I came up with, a cute BOY card.

(Supplies:- cardstock - pacific point, riding hood red, kiwi kiss, baja breeze, whisper white; ink - kiwi kiss, baja breeze; stamps - speckled wheel, wild about you, dinosaur stamp; punches - 2 x circle; accessories - ribbon, paper piercing, blender pen.)
