Hi everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the sketch challenge at CAS Cards and Sketches.
This was a super quick CAS card – I used the Memory Box Modern Landscape border die from 2012. I still love these old landscape dies so much! The patterned paper is by Basic Grey and the sentiment is from a Clearly Besotted set.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Color Throwdown! They have another fabulous colour palette this week – pale pink, blue and grey!
I created a blended panel using Stormy Sky, Spun Sugar and Hickory smoke distress ink and then cut it using the Memory Box drifting butterflies background die.
I adhered the die cut to a card base and added a Mama Elephant sentiment and a few thousand Nuvo drops to complete my card.
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Saturday Everyone!
The theme of the Memory Box / Outside the Box challenge is ‘hearts’ and of course I had to play along with one of my favourite Memory Box heart dies – the Tender Heart die. There are so many ways to use this beautiful die but I decided to go with a subtle colour palette of distress inks on a heart-shaped base rather than the inlaid die cutting that I’d originally planned.
I also added a couple of Poppystamps dies (Berry sprig and Tomei branch) and a Memory Box stamped sentiment.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the challenge at CAS Christmas. The challenge theme is silhouette – so weird that I chose this challenge today after the AAA challenge went live earlier this morning with an optional twist of challenge.
I love that this challenge gives me the opportinuty to play with my festive supplies all year round. Today I chose to use a die set that I didn’t get a chance to play with before Christmas – the WInterhaven Dies set by Catherine Pooler. I used this tag as my inspiration!
The sentiment is by Hero Arts.

Hello everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Color Throwdown! They have another fabulous colour palette this week – plum, cream and black!
I usually have problems when purple is included in a colour challenge palette, but I was lucky this week as I had a lovely shade of plum in my Twinkling H2O paint collection. So, I inked up the beautiful Altenew Starry Flowers stamp and quickly coloured it using the Twinklings and a black coloured pencil for the stems. I added a few black Nuvo drops to the centres after I cut out the image with the coordinating die. I cut the Altenew Burlap die from black card and adhered it and the flower cluster to a cream card base. To complete my take, I added a sentiment from the Altenew Painted Sentiments set and tucked it partly behind my main image.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the colour challenge at CAS Cards and Sketches.
I used the wonderful new Bees and Flowers die set from Hero Arts’ most recent release. I coloured the images using distress inks and my Prismacolour pencils.
The sentiment and stencil are also by Hero Arts.
