My Challenge Card
The Challenge
Good Sunday Morning Ladies,
It's that amazing time of the week where we get to see everyone's take on this Challenge, these Tic Tac Toe challenges give you free reign to design any shape and size of card, which means these challenges have the most varied end results, you all look at the categories and think of completely different designs.
So without further delay here are this week's Challenge cards..........
Michele
Michele made this amazing Birthday card t help inspire you with this week's challenge.
She Chose categories: Circles/Birthday/Favourite Colour
A perfect man card Michele, I love all the metallic shades that you have used, they look so striking against that black background.
Michele's second card is made using Sue Wilson's Intertwining Circles Striplet, die cut in white and layed over the gorgeous Teal background, Michele used the same colour card as the background to die cut her sentiment, which works perfectly.
Thank you so much for helping me inspire our friends.

I absolutely love sharing your work, particularly those of you that don't get to share your work on line.
Fingers crossed that the BT installation goes to plan on Tuesday, so that I can get back up and running as soon as possible.
Thanks again ladies,

Morning Everyone
ReplyDeleteWe have yet again a very deep frost and it's bitterly cold.
Yesterday morning on the pavements was a skating rink. From our path to the public footpath was horrendous. I just put my foot on and with Jim's arm around me I didn't move my feet at all to get to the car I just slid!!!
What a fantastic board this morning and for the first time (I think) the favourite Challenge was 'circles'. The boards really shine a welcome in the CAFE which of course is OPEN for all.
HUGS are on their way to you all. Take great care if going out this morning.xxxx
I hope it warms up for you soon That sounds scary I am so scared of slipping on the ice I probably make it worse for myself by being tense and not relaxing
DeleteHi Janet
DeleteHope it warms up soon. It's so scary isn't it when it's very icy. I looked out of our window last night and the car was icy so I suppose the paths were icy as well. However, it's snowing now so I don't know what the paths are like underneath.
Hi Janet
DeleteMeant to say I love the cards you made, and as you say circles seem to be the theme this week.
It's been pouring with rain here since before lunch. So we're liable to have some flooding by the morning. Hope it doesn't freeze tonight.
Morning Ladies
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely collection of challenge cards today. It’s great seeing what everyone has created for the challenge.
We have a damp, windy & dull day here. Housework this morning (sorry to swear so early) then I need to start a 16th Birthday Card to go to America as we’ve just realised that Fiona is 16 in a couple of weeks. That card is going to be a challenge for me to make!
Michele
16 is a difficult age to create for because they’re sooooo grown up
DeleteHi Michele, As a suggestion if you have large letter dies, cut out her name and make it the focal point. I did that for teenage grandaughter and grandson for there last birthdays, both cards were well received.
DeleteHi Michele
DeleteGreat cards you've made this week.
Good luck with designing a card for a 16 year old. Those teenage years are a bummer to made a card for aren't they.
What can I say except amazing! So many different styles and MICHELE you’ve reminded me that I have that Striplet- thank you Another die I need to utilise more often I am so bad at using new stuff I have bought (if it gets out of the packet that is) and forget to really use older items too
ReplyDeleteBabysitting went well he is still very snuffly and has a cough
Off to pay for the new kitchen today and then the mayhem will begin!
I hope you’re beginning to be able to relax SANDRA
Take care all in what for some people have is treacherous weather And those feeling poorly are on the mend xxx
Hi Sandra and ladies
ReplyDeleteSuch fantastic cards this week. Once again each one is different. Such an amazing feat every week.
It's snowing here ladies today and laying. Not to sure we'll be taking Doreen over to Yarnton for lunch today. All depends if the snow stops.
Sandra I hope you've moved most of the furniture as today and yesterday weren't very good days for moving.
Hi Sandra & all in cafe,
ReplyDeleteSandra once again you have inspired us to make some lovely cards, thank you. Hope you are nearly at end of moving, please take care.xxx
It is very wet here at least we do not have snow, afternoon sat in the warm is calling. Hope you all keep warm & dry, sending hugs to all who need them love Margaret.xxx
Hello Sandra and ladies,
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing selection of cards for this weeks challenge, ladies you have excelled yourself yet again.
I hope the move is completed Sandra and Manor Lodge is beginning to feel like home. Do you now have to have an inventory on the bungalow? I know that’s what used to happen.
Another wet miserable day we had a little snow earlier but it didn’t settle as everywhere was just too wet. Definitely a day for staying indoors.
Hope everyone has a good day, Hugs Brenda xxx
Hi Brenda
DeleteWe had quite a bit of snow this morning. But it started to rain so it's gradually going. Trouble now is we have giant size puddles everywhere. Might even have floods in the dips we have here.
Hello Sandra & Ladies
ReplyDeleteWow all Challenge cards are amazing this week.& all so different
. Sandra I hope you are all now settling in your new home & managed to get most of your things moved over now. Now Sandra take your time unpacking as you must be shattered please take it easy my lovely friend.
