Rainbow Lady's Challenge - Memories

Over on Rainbow Lady this week  Cynthia has chosen Memories as the challenge theme so I have used a couple of old photo's of my mum's brother and made a scrapbook page in Craft Artist.

I have coloured everything to match the tone of the photo's and have taken elements from several different kits.

I hope you can come over and join us.

CD Sunday - Chocolate, cream and one other

Good morning all, it's another week for the CD Sunday challenge and this week is a colour one, Christine has chosen chocolate, cream and one other colour of our choice. For my other colour I have used pink, my cd element is the backing paper from Decadent brocade by Artylicious, I like this cd and use the papers quite a lot.

I have used some distress ink to add a bit of colour to the paper as it wasn't quite creamy enough, the borders are from one of my latest purchases and this one is the persian accents, I really liked this border so have now ordered the motifs to go with it.  The teddy is from a set of stamps a friend bought at the QVC outlet shop, there are four sheets of fairly small teddy designs and they were on offer at £1.99, now that's what I call a bargain!

The bow is done with another of my recent purchases the mini bowdabra and this is the first successful one, I have had this ribbon for ages and really like it so as you all know we don't like to give these things away but as I bought a roll of it I thought I could spare a bit here, the rose is from wild Orchid.

I hope you can come and join us and check out the other team members blogs, they have some great stuff.
