Daring Cardmakers Challenge

Here is my take on Daring Cardmakers Friday's challenge.

It’s all in the Game

Tiddlywinks, playing cards, dominos, jig saw pieces…….the list goes on and I’m sure that most of us have a drawer somewhere that has the odd one or two of these lying around in.
Well now’s your chance to use them because I dare you to make a card using some of those pieces.
Oh and no, you don’t need to throw a double six to start playing.

Scrummy Stash Cafe Cover Girl Challenge

Here's my take on SSC's challenge, I used the Mika album cover.
SSC said, "I set this challenge for the girls a month or so ago, to use Mika's album cover as inspiration for a project and I notice Anita Mundt had exactly the same idea in Scrapbook Inspirations this month, so I've opened this challenge up a bit for you! I'd like you to use an album/cd cover as the inspiration for your project, you're welcome to use Mika's album cover if you fancy a bit of a challenge".

Cute Couple

Wheels At Last.......

Here is a card I made for my son as he bought his first car on Thursday past.

My New Crafting Buddy

My son’s girlfriend Samantha comes into my craft ‘studio’ for a chat when she is visiting Jason and has always showed interest in my ‘stash’ that’s sitting around, eg. Oh this is nice what's it for, what do you do with this? - and making her fingerprints with my ink pads. Today she mentioned she’d like to try making a card sometime, I said now is as good a time as any! This is the card she created for my husband’s birthday next month. The stamped image she got right the first time she put on the embossing powder and heated it then using water colour pencils, water and brush coloured it in. I handed her various different bits of foiled card and when she made her choice I explained about matting & layering. I think it is fabulous for a ‘Newbie’ to cardmaking. So I have found a new crafting buddy, I hope she gets the 'bug' so we can spend lots of time crafting together while my son watches football.

My Sister, My friend

Debbie

has given me an award today which I display here with pride. Thank you so much.


I am supposed to pass it out to 10 people who make my day. This is a toughie as you all make my day. But as I can only give it out 10 times, the first 10 to leave me a comment here can claim the award and proudly display it on your blogs.(If you don't already have this award)

CAARDVARKS

Caardvark say... Are you ready for a MICRO CHALLENGE? It's been a while... As many of you know, our Micros are fast & furious ONE DAY challenges. You have until midnight tomorrow night (March 2nd) to link your card for this challenge. Oh, I guess it would be helpful to let you know *what* the challenge is all about! JUST SAY NO TO PATTERNED PAPER! Feel free to make your own patterned paper, but we don't wanna see any pp on your card. Resist the urge and go cardstock only. :)

This the one I made.. I trippled embossed in clear onto beige card then stamped in black .. this created the background for the main images. I used same stamp with gold ink on the card itself.
