Your Challenge Cards

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,

Michele chose a fantastic Sketch to Challenge you all with this week, she also made some fantastic cards to give you a little inspiration for your cards.

So let's get on and see what designs you all decided on........

Janet

Janet has made four absolutely gorgeous cards for this sketch, the first card is so pretty, this would make a beautiful Ruby Wedding Anniversary card, or a stunning birthday card.

The second card has three adorable cats on, such sweet images, Janet such a lovely card for almost anyone.

The third card is just a perfect girly card, with those three lovely dolls on, I love the colours and pretty papers you have used, perfect card for any little girl.

Janet's final card is a beautiful Baby Girl card, again you have chosen three darling images, all working beautifully with the theme and style of the card, what an amazing Keepsake! 

Thank you so much Janet for all 4 of your fantastic cards.

Karen

Karen has made a fantastic Christmas Card,

I love this design Karen, super easy to batch make too, o know blue isn't necessarily a traditional Christmas colour but I personally think it works perfectly for anything snow/ice related, I made quite a few dark blue Christmas  cards last year.

Anyway here is Karen's description.....

Here's my challenge card

I will definitely make more similar to this because it was so easy to do. I used Spellbinder dies to create the card blank and mats. The embossing folder was a bargain bucket buy from The Snowman Range by Crafters Companion. The narrow strip, circles and snowflakes were shapes in ScanNCut. The sentiment is from Sue W Triple Perspectives Range
Lots of love
Karen

Thank you so much Karen

Val

Val, just love this card, one of the reasons I love it is because your die cut circles remind me of 'jammy Dodgers', my goodness me I'm craving an English biscuit! 

Seriously though such a beautiful thank you card Val, I love everything about it! 

Thank you so much for taking part.

Margaret 

Margaret is right back into it this week with two cards, two gorgeous cards too!

The first a pretty Christmas card, beautifully embossed with a 3D embossing folder, four pretty snowflake adorn the top half of the card, then to finish a lovely red ribbon.

The second card and my favourite  (sorry), a pretty birthday card made using 'Stampin'Up Fresh Florals' paper, a die cut 'Lots of Labels' tag for the sentiment and that pretty Stampin'Up Flourish Thinlits' border and flowers. A truly stunning card Margaret, thank you so much for taking part, the line up is just incomplete without hour cards.

Lilian

Lilian has also gone for a Christmas card for this week's Challenge, as always with Lilian's challenge cards there is some beautiful background papers, in such a pretty shade, then Lilian has die cut the letters for ' Noel and die cut a scalloped circle in matching colour and then a stitched edge circle upon which the letters were placed, a couple of pieces of foliage complete this lovely card.

I think your 'Mojo' is returning Lilian,

Thank you so much for taking part.

Maria

Maria is back from her weekend away and straight into her craft space to make not one but Two gorgeous  Challenge cards.

The first I  traditional Christmas colours features four of the cutest snowmen, mounted onto die cut circles of red card, a pretty ref and white go gingham ribbon finishes the card beautifully. 

Maria's second card is a beautiful birthday card, the side has been decoupaged (I think) to give some stunning detail, a pretty yellow ribbon along the centre of the card draws your eye over to the four pretty circles that have really pretty floral images on them.

Two stunning cards Maria, thank you so much for taking part.

Brenda

Brenda has made a wonderful Christmas card for this week's challenge, a lovely hammered finish card gives a 'snowy' background effect, on to this Brenda added three lovely MDF mini Christmas images, on top of three red squares, a pretty ribbon adorns the side of the card which gives a pretty finish to this lovely card.

Thank you so much for taking part Brenda.

Lynda

Lynda has made a stunning card for the challenge this week, the top half is gorgeous Lynda, it was made using Spectrum Noir inks dropped onto paper/card then Lynda sprinkled some Mica powders on to the wet ink and dried it, backing onto a narrow black Matt really highlights all the colour and Mica detail, such a work of art Lynda,

To finish the card, Lynda added four pretty images, die cut into circles with a sprig of foliage and some pretty ribbon to finish.

I love this card Lynda, your background is stunning.

Thank you so much for taking part Sweetheart.
