Rainbow Lady's Tea Time Challenge

Over on Rainbow Lady's challenge blog this week it's tea time but at a push you can use coffee, well I'm a coffee drinker so thought these atc's would fit the bill. Once again I've scanned the images because I can't find the lead to my camera and to be honest they look a bit flat and uninteresting but they do look better in the flesh.

I'm sure you can come up with something so pop over and have a look, would love to come to your place to see what you've done.

Card for Crafty Ann's challenge

Well this is the second card done for the guest designer spot for January, the theme this time is embossing so everyone can have a go as it is something we all do in one form or another. I cut the mats out on the cricut and then embossed with the cuttlebug onto the pink card making sure I lined it up properly in the middle. The patterned backing paper is one of Crafty Ann's as is the frame with the bow that the Tilda's are sitting in. The Tilda's and frame are coloured with Promarkers, I do like these pens.

Pop over to have a look at the other design teams cards, I'm sure you'll be impressed and hopefully inspired to join in.

Mum's birthday

It's my mum's birthday soon and I need to get a card into the post but I'm feeling pretty rough so am not really in the mood for making anything. I thought I'd have a play with the new MCS cd and do something quick, the cards came with the cd and although they look ok are a little bit lightweight for me so I have used a heavy duty photo paper and also the insert is 160gsm to add a bit of body. My mum isn't a fussy lady so this kind of thing suits her more than lots of frills and ribbons, I just hope she likes it.
