TFL!

And of course 'C'mon England!!!'

Gotta Wear Shades

Lythan's Fantastic Dare this week....



This week your challenge is to be

Bright!

Clashy is good, hot colours are good, anything super duper bright is good too.

If you want to double dare then why not use the sketch that Vanessa made for her marvellous mid week dare?I can't wait to put on my shades to visit your blogs!

The paper is some really old K & Co stuff that I have had for ages but it fits with the theme quite nicely :) The back ground is tissue paper that The Craftz Boutique use to wrap their very yummy stash parcels in. Hand cut trees, hand stitching, old lace, ribbon and some eyelets.

TFL :)

Take 3

Vanessa came up with a gorgeous sketch for this week's little extra and made 3 fantastic cards to accompany it, this is my take on the sketch...

October Afternoon paper, Maya Road Ribbon, Prima Flower, Papermania brads, eyelets and letter stickers.

Fancy Pants paper, Bazzill card, Doodlebug trim and letter stickers covered with stickles, Docrafts brads...

Basic Grey paper, Dymo letters, staples, pipecleaner...

What a Load of Scallops!

Keryn's fantabulous dare this week....

I'm just loving all the new scallop punches that are out at the moment, circles, ovals, squares, edges etc, etc and then there's the corner rounder and slit punches that can be used to scallop edges as well.

Use your imagination, your scallop punches, your corner rounders, your cricuts and cuttlebugs to create any card to fit any style as long as it shows scallops.



A Card I made for my Dad :)

The scallops are made with a Papermania Horseshoe punch and adhered around the edge of the topper. Doodlebug letter stickers, Cuttlebug arrows, Crate paper and faux stitches.
