Seeing Double

Good Afternoon, my card to share today is for this weeks Less is More - A One Layer Card - Seeing Double.  I have made two cards and both of them after many trials and tribulations that I won't bore you with, needless to say I now have lots of white card for stamping on!!  Both of these do have faults, but I am not wasting any more card today.  I am not totally happy with the words on the first card, and I discovered an inky mark on the second after I took the pic.  The bauble images are from Papermania, I coloured the first one with a Flexmarker and the second one with a Promarker.

 I didn't get the stamp in the right position for the second one so coloured a piece of white ribbon with the same Promarker to balance the card.  It also hasn't got a sentiment because my printer has started throwing up inky marks for some reason or other, so that wasted a bit more card.

I hope you like my card and many thanks for visiting

Some Enchanted Evening

Good Morning, the sun is shining here in the Northern Isles this morning, there is a bit of cloud about but nothing looking too threatening atm.  My card this morning is for Rainbow Lady's Challenge, which this week is another song title Some Enchanted Evening.  My image is from Joanna Sheen's Enchanted Dreams cd, there really are some stunning images on this cd.  The bp is from the same cd and the coloured accent paper is Cuddly Buddly, the ribbon is from my stash, coloured to match with a Promarker.  I would have preferred satin ribbon but I am completely out of white at the moment. The butterfly is a Cuttlebug die and embossing folder, with some aurora sparkle gems for the body, cut from a piece of card painted with two colours of Tesco cheap shimmer paint.

Thank you for visiting and for any comments you may wish to make.  They really make my day.

Mother's Day

My card today is one of the many Mother's Day cards that I have to make. I need 3 just for me with a MIL, StepMum and Mum and so far I have 3 others on order.  The bp, flowers and bracket frame are all from Fred She Said, I coloured the flowers with Copics, the sentiment is computer generated,  the white cuttlebugged card is Stardream and the lilac card is from Papermania's new cardstock range, this one has a lovely shimmer to it.  I have followed this week's Sketch93 from Sweet Sketch Wednesday. 

I am also entering my card into
