Your Challenge cards


My Challenge Card


Happy Birthday Lynda

Have a lovely Day 

Good Morning Ladies,

It's Sunday again and that means it's time to look at your amazing Challenge cards but before that I would like you to join me in wishing our lovely Lynda a very Happy 70th Birthday !!!!
I hope you have a lovely day with your family celebrating your very special birthday. XXXXX

Now onto your cards......


Karen

I decided to make a thank you card to send to the couple that held a BBQ (I'm trying to remember hee hee) I found an image of dancers on Google and it had all of the colours for the challenge
The "Thank You" was cut on ScanNCut in white, pale blue and navy- looks black in the photo!


 I found this paper in my stash from a kit I bought from Lidl and did a little happy dance when I saw the "circles" of red and blue hearts So on this one I "copied" the sketch using SW New Arrivals die I can't remember where the EF is from It was el cheapo at AP!
Thanks Karen for taking part .

Janet, you have been a busy girl this week, 4 amazing cards, it's impossible to choose a favourite, I love them all, the first card is just beautiful, I love the 'Art Deco' style is just gorgeous.  The second and third cards are fantastic Christmas cards, the fourth is such a pretty card too, that Teapot and Teacup are so detailed.  Thank you so much for taking part Janet.

 Lilian

Lilian, omg, Such a stunning card, I imagine it's s view that you see often, I love the 'sea effect' you have achieved with your inks,  can I ask how you achieved it ???  Such a perfect Summer card.  Thank you so much for taking part.

Michele found a free card kit that fit our Challenge perfectly and just look what a fantastic card she created with it, I am loving all of the 'Nautical' themed cards this week.  Thank you so much for taking part Michele.

Lynda



Our birthday girl has managed two cards this week, both cards are fantastic, I think that Lynda has created the backgrounds to both of today's cards, the first card Lynda had embellished with a beautiful handmade flower, the second with a pretty butterfly. Thank you so much for taking part this week Lynda, have a wonderful day !

Well ladies, what can I say ?! You are all amazing, another fantastic display of cards, every one completely different. 

I hope you all have a lovely Sunday, especially our lovely birthday girl. 

Love and hugs to all Of you,

Sandra

  1. Morning Everyone
    HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHERDAY LYNDA- have a wonderful day with those who love you.

    This week's CCs are just beautiful and the display board is packed with thoughts of the wonderful Sea.
    I'm always so pleased that we don't have to choose a favourite as I never can. I think 'this one' then of course change my mind over the day many times.

    Yesterday was a complete WASH OUT. the rain from Friday continued through the night and all day. The water butts are overflowing and everything is soaked through. Its not doing the tomatoes any good as they're not ripening like they should. We have a little blue in the sky this morning and it's a little brighter but still no sunshine.

    Have a good Sunday everyone.
    Extra HUGS on their way to MICHELE. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow and the rest of the week.

    I see the CAFE door is open so pop in to have a peek at display board and help yourselves to a cup of coffee/tea with a little refreshment too.

    HUGS are winging their way to you all. xxxx

    Happy 70th Birthday Lynda-hope you have a wonderful day.

    Lovely collection of challenge cards today. Mine was made in a hurry as I hadn't felt like crafting all week and hubby wanted to do some gardening yesterday afternoon. Think he was trying to keep me busy! We just finished around 5pm when it started raining so that was well timed.

    Once I've done the homework etc I think we're going to have a walk down to the beach-it's sunny but breezy here today.

  11. Hi Sandra ladies and especially Lynda
    Hi Zlynda
    I hope your having a fabulous day with your family on your 70th Birthday our special friend.
    A lovely selection of cards today. Especially love Vals sea scape card. You did a much better card than me. I'll have to do an inked background on mine.
    Had a lovely barbecue yesterday for Doreen's 21st. Doreen stayed last night. We went out for lunch today as usual then went and sat along the Canal at Thrupp as it was so nice. Can home at 5.30. On the outskirts of Witney we saw a lot of trotting horses with small carts behind them. Must have been about 30 in all, a lovely sight going along the high street up towards the road leading towards Wood Green school. Pulled into a field just outside the Witney boundary before you turn off onto the road that leads towards North Leigh.
