Happy Birthday!

Hello there...Happy Tuesday! Hope you're having a fab week so far!

Sooo...its time for another challenge over at Celebrate the Occasion this week and we're celebrating Birthdays! We'd like to see your Birthday cards with the added twist of using some twine and at least one button!

Here is my card....

 

I love this pretty backing paper...those polka dots are just fab! I've used some dark purple backing paper at the bottom, topped with my polka dot paper. I've thread my twine through three different purple buttons and I've spaced them along the twine before attaching to the card. My image is stamped and then coloured with my Promarkers and I've added a Birthday sentiment which I have created on my computer.

 

Pop by the Celebrate the Occasion challenge blog to see how my fellow teamies have used their twine and buttons!

 

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

 

Thanks for popping by today,

Happy Valentines Day

Hello there...hope you've had a sweet day!

I've got a lovely glass of red and I'm waiting for Joe to arrive for our romantic dinner....so with some spare time what did I decide to do....what any crafter does....I made a card!

This card has been distressed around the edges (I'm not a fan of distressing - it actually pains me to do this to my lovely backing papers!!) to give a shabby chic feel that I think matches the pretty teacup image perfectly. I've also added a shiny button and some twine, along with lots of faux stitches! My tea has been coloured using my Promarkers.

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

Cupcake Craft Challenges - entwined (use twine)

Papertake Weekly - colour combo - black and white and red all over!

Passion for Promarkers - distressing

Pop by all the blogs mentioned above to see the gorgeous DT cards that have been created.

Well, I'd better turn my attention back to dinner now!

Thanks for popping by today,
