Lothian Crafts Monthly Challenge

This months challenge over at Lothian crafts is the theme 'Bright Colours' and a great prize of a Marianne Design Border Die to be won.





For my DT card I used a Joanna Sheen house mouse stamp for the main image, coloured with ProMarkers.
I used Sandstone and Blush for the mouse, Pink Carnation and  Powder Blue for the flower and Caramel for the oar.
The image was layed onto some blue card and then onto a piece of bright pink paper embossed using a 'polka dot' embossing folder through big shot.

I do like this card shape at the moment - but unsure it's called... I've used Hunkydory pink foiled acetate on the side panels attached with brads and finished the card off with a border ribbon from my stash, 2 paper flowers with the greeting put over the centre and a pink bow.

Autumn Birthday

This card uses the Autumn Leaves House Mouse stamp from Joanna sheen, which I've coloured in with ProMarkers. The leaves backing paper is from the Giordano Christmas creations cd and the blue sky/ cloud paper I found in my scrap draw! I've added some ribbon, gems and skeleton leaves to finish the card.

The theme of the card is based on the current sketch challenge at Crafts 4 eternity , which also has the theme 'wacky weather' - well we've certainly had a lot of wind lately blowing the leaves off the trees.
