A CARD FOR TWO CHALLENGES

Hi Everyone

I hope you enjoyed your bank holiday weekend.

Quite a bit of mine was spent with Mum hence the lack of blog posts.  But I have enjoyed some crafty time today which has been lovely.

So, here tonight with a card for two challenges:


This used:

Image:  DoCrafts Forever Friends (a really old little wooden stamp that I just love colouring)
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat (sadly no longer trading)
ProMarkers
Backing Papers from Snippet Mountain
Spellbinders Circle and Scalloped Circle
Corner Rounding Punch
Tumbled Glass Distress Ink Pad
My Trusty Sewing Machine

This is for two challenges:

1.  The As You Like it Challenge - where they want to know your favourite colouring medium (and why)

My favourite colouring medium is definitely my ProMarkers.  I love them very much and am so happy with them that I have never bothered to even try any other sort of pens.  I like that they have a big chisel tip as well as the bullet tip for those bigger areas. 

and

2.  The Red Wagon Challenge - where the challenge is "the circle of life".  So you need to include circles somewhere in your creation.

No shortage of circles .. .. .. a plain one, a scalloped one and a good few on the backing paper.

Enjoy the rest of your evening and hopefully I will be here again soon.

  6. Hi Jules,
    Wow! another beautiful card. There's a blast from the past - love Forever friends ... must ink mine up sometime !

    I think you should not resist any longer on the matching spice of life dies. Just think about all the use you will get out of them making beautiful cards ;-) - You NEED them!!
