Whoops!!

Hello there! Yes, I'm a tad bit late with this post!

Well, what can I say? Its been a manic week...most of which was spent delivering training in Cheltenham. This was a new experience to me....I thoroughly enjoyed it (maybe because I got to talk so much!!)...but I was rather tired by the end!

Anyway, four days away from home seems to have thrown me this week!! But I'm here now (better late than never) with the latest challenge from My Time to Craft. This week we'd love to see your gate fold cards.

I do like creating gate folds cards, I feel they can always hide a little surprise inside....

 

So I decided to keep the outside of my card rather simple...with some pretty patterned paper, some gems and my sentiment.

 

Leaving my image for the inside!

 

I've coloured my fab image with my Promarkers and added a little more bling.

 

Pop by the My Time to Craft challenge blog to see the gorgeous cards created by the fab DT.

 

I'd also like to enter this card in the following challenges:

 

Make it Monday

Papertake Weekly - anything goes

Di's Digi Challenge - Birthdays

 

If you get the chance pop by these fab challenge blogs to see the gorgeous DT cards.

 

Thanks for popping by today,

Lets get folding!

Hello there! Happy Tuesday!

Hope you're having a good week so far!

This morning we have a new challenge for you over at My Time to Craft....we want to see your cards with more than one fold....BUT you're not allowed to enter an easel card! Sooo...what are you waiting for...get your card out and get folding!

I decided I wanted to create some kind of window scene using a gate fold card....but what to put inside?? What do I like best?? Cakes and sweets of course!

 

One thing I discovered was that its quite hard to photograph a gate fold card!!

 

I've used some plain grey and some pretty patterened paper in the background. Then I made my shelves from some plain brown paper. I stamped my Birthday cake and sweet jars and coloured them with my Promarkers...then I added a little sparkle with my Stickles. I added them to my shelves and then added a computer generated sentiment.

 

I'm really pleased with this card...but wait until you see what my fellow DT members have created...they are a talented bunch! Pop over to the My Time to Craft challenge blog now!!!

I'd also like to enter this sweet creation over at Make it Monday!
