Your Challenge Cards

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,

I hope that you are all well and enjoying the weekend,  we had a lovely bright sunny day but it there was quite a chill in the air. Paul put some washing on the line to dry in the sun but it was obviously to cold as it didn’t dry at all.

You have made some lovely cards for this weeks Shape Challenge that Karen kindly set for us.

So without further a do, let's look at your designs.....

 Karen 

Three fantastic designs from Karen, the first card is an upgrade on the original card that Karen shared to inspire us when we launched the challenge, Karen has added that lovely Vase and flowers to her lovely background, they give a real focal point to the card, it works perfectly Karen.

Karen's second card was made from a piece that she coloured in a colouring book. 

The third card is a design I really love, using four different embossing folders and matting them onto gold mirri card, then adding the 'Noel' in the same Mirri card.  It looks very modern, I love it !!

Karen's Description:

Card 1:  I’ve added to the original card I sent you as it did look a little stark (especially in the photo!) I have added a Tracey Evans stamp and added the vase which is triple embossed and the flowers which have a little bit of glossy accents in the centre all stamped/cut from the leftover Barbara Gray paper

Card 2:  I made this one this afternoon 

I used a page from a colouring book I added a small black frame to create a spotlight and coloured it in with some very old pencils and added some Tim Holtz stickers

Card 3: Here’s another cc 4 squares using different embossing folders and one of the layers of Sue W NOEL die Matted onto gold mirri card I might do more like this and perhaps only one if the embossing folders

Thank you so much Karen for choosing this weeks Challenge and for designing 3 fantastic cards XXX

Sonia

Sonia has made a fantastic Birthday card for this week's shape challenge, choosing Circles as the shape choice.  I love both the paper and your design Sonia.

Sonia's Description:

''The patterned paper was double sided, so used one side as the base, and then die cut various size circles from the other side. The flower die is from my stash and the sentiment from LOTV.''
