Double Challenge - Arty Girlz and Penny Black

I did a Double here. I try really hard not to do this, but I'm so far behind at the moment that sometimes it's necessary. Arty Girlz challenge was a Sketch this week, and Penny Black's challenge was Buttons and Brads.

I couldn't help but use Penny Black's Saturday Challenge Sponsors Papers. I have every one of Anice's CD's and Downloads, they are fab and definately funky! The Papers are from the "Now That's Funky" CD by Funky Hand. The Stamp is of course Penny Black, coloured with a combination of Whispers and Sakura Brush Pens. The main backing layer is actually Glitter card but doesn't show very well. Buttons and Brads are from my stash.

Sketch This Cards: 44

Here's this weeks card sketch from Sketch This. I was a bit stuck as it's my Partners Birthday today and I hate to say this but I'm not very good when it comes to mens cards. Well I hope he likes it.

For this card I once again used Funky Hands - Now that's Funky CD, the colour option is called Mans World. I couldn't find a thin ribbon to match so I used a thicker one but twisted it, it now looks round which the photo hasn't quite picked up. I also created a matching insert and envelope liner.

Di Hickman Card Sketch - February #4

I used Di Hickmans Card Sketch to create this years Mothers Day Card. The papers are once again from Funky Hands new CD " Now That's Funky".

The Colour range is "Warm Coco", all the elements are from the CD except the Ribbon, decided to add some of my own only because I had some Satin Ribbon that matched.

Arty Girlz Challenge #23

This week's challenge is 'Circles' so anything goes as long as there is a circle somewhere on your creation..... could be buttons, brads, eyelets, circles in patterned paper etc.... I saw this and thought "Oh No!" but then I got my Latest Funky Hand CD and thought Wow! It's funny how the Challenges you don't expect to enjoy turn out the Best!

I just love these colour combinations and the papers are so gorgeous! The are all off Funky Hands latest CD "Now that's Funky" the colour range is called "Pretty in Pink", Anice does come up with some Brilliant names for her Colour Ranges. All elements are off the CD including the Ribbon.
