I'm still here...

Hi Everyone,
Bet you thought I was lost in action didn't you....No I've been busy getting my cards and kits ready for my class yesterday and then again on Saturday..Also been busy doing lots of jobs and bits and pieces for my Mum and Dad,poor hubby has to do most of the gardening at the moment at both house's because of my hayfever,but I have managed to make two cards..on to the first...Please scroll down the post for the second one...


I've made this one for Katy to give to her Godfather on Fathers day..I've used one of the cute Hanglar images coloured with polychromos pencils..the easel card is cut out with my nesties..I've used antique linen distress ink blended around the outside..All of the card, ribbons and buttons are from my stash..the ticket sentiment is cut out with a Tim Holtz die and then I've stamped in the middle..I would like to enter this into the following challenge...



On to my second card...I would like to enter this one into the following challenge..

Just Magnolia - Mina's Sketch


I have coloured Tilda with my pencils again then cut her out with my nesties and matted and layered her...the paper and card are from my scraps box and don't have the name on...the lace, flowers,heart gems and ribbon are from my stash...The sentiment if from Pink Gem Designs cut out with nesties again...That's it from me for now off to do some colouring as all the hoiusework etc is done now and the rest of the day is mine..Must just say I have been visiting all of you and seeing your gorgeous creations but just might not have had time to leave you all a comment,will try to be a better blogger,promise..Take care..

Hi Mandy,
These are both lovely! I was particularly drawn to the Father's Day card - such bright colours and the wonderful circular design. Very eyecatching :)
