New Home anyone?

Hello!

Do you have any fun plans for the weekend? I'm working for most of it, just when the weather looks to be picking up and I could spend some time in the garden! 

My brother and sister-in-law are moving today...yup the ones who just had a baby 9 days ago! Crazy isn't the word! Anyway, I made them a card to welcome them to their new home, so I am going to show it you today. I wanted to show you the new baby card I made for them but I wanted to make sure they got it first!

For this one I have used a Bermuda Bay card blank and then basically cut out a square from Retro Fresh DSP and punched out a little heart, then layered it onto Bermuda Bay using Dimensionals for a little height.

I used Baked Brown Sugar Core'Dinations for the roof and drew the white lines using the Stampin' Chalk Marker pen, just for a little interest! The sentiment is from the Pomp and Circumstance stamp set, and is stamped in BBS. (and is the only stamping on the card!)

Right...it's football shirt Friday today so I'm off to pop my Huddersfield shirt on...it's nice to have the opportunity to where my colours at work!

Simply Simple Stars

Hello everyone! Are you ready for a new challenge? Today over at CAS - Colours and Sketches we have a lovely fresh colour combo for you!

I felt these colours deserved a true clean style, so here it is...

This is one of the simplest cards I've made for a while! Quite simply, I stamped 3 stars using the three challenge colours and cut them out. Then I used my Stamp-a-Majig to perfect place my sentiment and mounted the panel onto Calypso Coral, then a Pool Party card blank.

I'm entering my card into the Clean & Simple challenge this week.

Happy 300th Sketch Saturday!!!

Good morning!
It is the 300th challenge birthday at Sketch Saturday today! How incredible is that?! So we have a couple of special things happening today!

First of all, Sketch Saturday creator, Jo Edwards is joining us for today's celebration! It's so fab to see her here again!

Secondly, we not only have a sketch challenge, but we have a very special blog hop, with secret candy along the way! Simply comment on each of the DT member's projects for your chance to win! Winners will be announced next Saturday!

So here is the sketch for this week which was designed by Jo and was the first ever sketch...


Here is what I made...

I used another un-inked set for this card. I know it's not graduation season but I just thought this sketch suited the stamps perfectly! These are Pomp and Circumstance and are available in the new Spring/Summer catalogue. 

I used stamped the images in Basic Black and Elegant Eggplant using my Stampin' Write Markers. The paper is Patterns Designer printable from MDS and I finished with Silver 1/8'' Ribbon.
