A new challenge...

Morning Everyone!

Its lovely and sunny here today! Which is very good news because...the number one fan is coming to visit....YAY!

Although its not going to be all fun and games, we are designing and making her wedding invites this weekend.  Im very excited to get my creative hands on a meaty project like this! Hopefully I will be able to post you the results over the next few days.

Right so on to my card for today.  Well another one of my new years resolutions was to join in to some challenges, and today I will be entering my first.  I am going to be taking part in the "Less is More" Week 57 - colour theme challenge.


NEUTRALS
This could be anything from off white to black with any shade of beige, brown or grey in between.


Which ties in perfectly with a card I made for my uncle getting a new job!  I love the fact the staples give it a masculine feel but also are a great way of attaching the ribbon! I think i might be on the hunt for some coloured ones on my excursion to Hobby Craft today!




What do you think?
Wish me luck :)

I'll be back some time over the weekend! Until then...

In Bloom

Morning all...

Thought I'd grab a few minutes before work to share something's with you!

I've been busy creating over the last few days. I'm getting quite a few enquiries about making wedding invitations! It's very exciting- think I may have to make a few belated birthday cards just in case!

So I wanted to show you a card I made for my Grandma's birthday last week...I have recently received a new Papertrey Ink stash and I couldn't wait to use it! I'd been erming and arghing about whether or not to buy the "In Bloom" stamp set but after seeing the beautiful creations Katie makes with it I just couldn't resist!













I also purchased the Papertrey ink in several colours- I think I'm going to have to collect them all! They are so easy to use and you don't get all the horrible excess ink everywhere, it also makes cleaning the stamp far easier! On this card I used Raspberry Fizz, Melon Berry and Autumn Rose. I finished the card with some baby pink ribbon, my new Think it Big sentiments and some random adhesive crystals (you can't go wrong with a bit of bling!) I can't wait to use this set again!!

Thank you for reading, I'll be back soon.

Take Care
