Watch Out There's a Bunny About!!

This is my entry for this weeks Daring Cardmakers challenge, which is all things circular. Sooooooo I dug out my Circle Cutter that I got from C&C many moons ago. I remember now why it was in the back of the drawer!
After it had chewed up 4 sheets of card and I was less than happy, I managed to cut a couple of circles which I joined together with eyelets and ribbon.
The backing paper is DCWV which is really getting used now.
The image is from a clear set of Penny Black stamps and is very cute. She won't hop away because I had to cut her feet off to get her to fit!!. Calm down dear it's only a card lol. I've coloured her with Inktense and embossed it all with clear embossing powder over new Versamark Champagne pad. This is great, my old Versamark was filthy so I treated myself to a new one. It gives a very subtle goldy shimmery finnish - very nice.
The circle cutter is now at the bottom, at the back of the drawer again!
The card also fits in well with the challenge at Craft Swap Forum where the theme is Easter.
I really need to get away from the computer now, but it's gonna be hard to move. Have a great Sunday and thanks for looking xx

You Have To Kiss A Few Frogs.....

so they say, before you find your prince!
I've just discovered the Imaginisce range of stamps and I've fallen in love with them. They are really cute and easy to work with. The sketch is from the Truly Scrumptious

challenge site, this is a new blog and they don't mind if your entry is also for another challenge. As I seem to have got the challenge bug this is great 'cos there just arn't enough crafting hours to enter 'em all!
My new best froggy friend is great for the Daring Cardmakers challenge which is frogs or fish.
The papers are all DCWV from last years QVC TSV's.
That's it from me for a few days 'cos its back to work tomorrow. Thanks very much for looking x

Sketch & Stash & Daring Cardmakers

There are so many fab challenge blogs out there and just not enough time to do them all, so I've combined a couple with this card. On Sketch & Stash you have to combine the sketch and use something either new or
unused from your stash. My new is both the Co'rdinations cardstock that I got from my local garden centre in the Christmas sale, and a Sugar Nellie stamp that I got direct from Funky Kits I like these stamps - they're cute but not too cute. I love the co'rdination card, I just cuttlebugged it then sanded with my sanding block and I'm really pleased with the result.
The challenge at Daring Cardmakers was much simpler, just use green and lots of it.
Well the base card is green, the girls dress is green and the sanded card and the sentiment are green.
I really enjoyed making this, though I must admit I think I'm losing the ability to make a card if I don't have a sketch to follow.
Thanks very much for looking. xx
