DCM - Just a quick one!

Here is this week's challenge set by Bondgirl "I want you to make a QUICK CARD! a card that takes you no more than hmm say 30 minutes max to do - start to finish. No set ingredients and pick your own theme, but be quick and be crafty! (and dont forget to tell us how long it took too)."

Here's what I came up with. From going through my scrap box to completion it took me 14 minutes, which is not bad for me it normally takes me about an hour just to decide on what papers to use.

I used some Pink card that I had used on Monday to try out my new Swiss Dot's embossing folder. The paper is from Nitwits Collections Breath of Fresh Air kit and the sentiment is from my Woodware Great Birthday set.

Stamp Something - Sketch Something Challenge

This week's challenge is a sketch. I love sketch challenges, sometimes I get them completely wrong but that's half the learning curve, knowing where you went wrong and trying not to make the same mistakes. I'm all pinked out at the moment so decided to go for the blues on this one.

I used the Summer Breeze Collection from NitWit Collections for the backing papers. The stamp is another one from Stamposaurus called Ellie 3, I stamped with Brilliance Sky blue and coloured the Daisies with a yellow Sakura Star Dust Pen.

Stamp Something #2 - Thank You

This card originally started as the card for DCM's Animalia challenge, the reason why will be quite clear when I tell you the name of the Kit I used. Noah's Ark, but I got a bit stuck at the Image part. I couldn't quite get it right with the Image I had choosen so I looked around and saw my Pandura Images that I had stamped last week and thought that would be perfect. Needless to say once the Image was done it wasn't appropriate for the "Aniamal Theme". So I added a Thank You and here it is.



The kit is Noah's Ark Fat Quarter Bundle available from Nitwits Collections.
