I have had a lovely lazy Sunday, playing with my stash and on the laptop. We went out for lunch so I didn't even have to cook today. Back to reality tomorrow.
The first card I made today is quite a different one for me. The challenge atPaperplay is no DPs. I followed the lovely sketch at Moving along with the times and the theme of make a splash at Quixotic. The image is CC designs and I added glossy accents to her tail. It is the first time I have used this product and I shall certainly be using it again. The circle is cut with nesties and embossed with Cuttlebug bubbles folder and distressed for the challenge at Secret Crafter. The embellishments are a K&Co chipboard set I bought in America and they are just perfect for this card.
The second card is yet another male card for an order. The image is Little Claire, papers are DCWV and K&Co Hopscotch. The stars are a Cuttlebug die. I bought some star ribbon bards yesterday and just had to try one out here. Sentiment is Craftwork cards. I thought the ribbon looked manly enough. Really must use some flowers soon.
There is a great sketch as always at Friday Sketchers and A Spoon full of sugar have a Happy Birthday theme.
