Hi Everyone!

Look at this beautiful e-cut! Another perfect creation by Suzanne of Quietfire Design.

The butterflies were punched, then inked up in autumn colours, and given a tiny bit of sparkle.

The top edge of the panel was embossed with a tree bark folder, and lightly swiped with ink.

The colours of autumn- absolutely the best!

HEALTH- IRISH BLESSING CARD

I was in a mood to make a challenge card today- so I did! I've been wanting to use a new e-cut file from Quietfire Design as well. It's HERE. It means 'health'. It goes with the sentiment, but is meant more as a toast before drinking.  :) I was impressed with how nicely it cut, being so small.

 

I've chosen these challenges:

SANTA x2- SCRAPBOOK PAGE

 

Hi Everyone!

Here's a fun sketch from Canadian Scrapbooker for January 2014.

I decided to give it a try. I turned it on it's side and went from there.

 

DH put this great photo in my stocking at Christmas, and I knew it needed a page all to itself.

Instead of three small photos next to the main photo, I put three mats and laid the hohoho over them. The hohoho is another great cut file from Quietfire Design.

A little trim, some hearts, and snowflakes finish up the design.

The sun is shining, the snow is melting, and I hope you have a wonderful day.

A SKETCH AND A COLOUR COMBO

On Splitcoast today, I came across a sketch challenge. You can find it here.

I also received a color challenge in my email, so I put the two together. Go here to check that out- you won't be disappointed. Other than choosing the image, or in this case text, for the center panel, all other decisions were made for me. I chose to follow the sketch exactly, but turn it on it's side.

I enjoyed this for something different and believe I'll take part in challenges again.

How about you?

By the way, the colours are vanilla, soft suede, crumb cake, early espresso and cherry cobbler. Other than the soft suede, they sound like dessert- yummy!

Have an exceptional day!
