Michele that Embossing folder is amazing, so much delicate floral detail.  Thank you so much for taking part Michele xxx

Margaret

Margaret has made three amazing cards for our 'Shades Of' Challenge this week.....

Card 1: Shades of Lilac, Margaret had used a beautiful floral paper as the inspiration for her card, matting and layering with darker shades of lilac/purple to compliment that pretty paper. 

Card 2:  Shades of 'Peach/Beige', Margaret used the same paper as in the card above, it is such a pretty paper that the sentiment is all that is needed, papers that beautiful need to be the main focus of the card.

Card 3:  Shades of Green, this card is for 'Little Christoper's 4th Birthday, how can he be 4 already!!! Margaret has used an amazing Tractor stamp for Christopher's card, what little boy doesn't love tractors!! My little boy still does and he is way of 6ft and 26 years old, lol 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you Margaret for 3 fantastic Challenge cards xxx

Three absolutely beautiful cards Janet, you are such an inspiration, you come up with so many beautiful designs week after week, thank you so much for taking part my lovely xxx

Sue has chosen 'Shades of' Red for our challenge this week, making a stunning Christmas card,

Sue has die cut a beautiful snowflake out of red glitter card to use as the main focus of the card, 

the base is made using a Kraft card base with a red card mat, Sue has added some hessian ribbon that has pretty red snowflakes on, (which I am guessing may have been the inspiration for the card).

A fantastic Christmas card Sue, thank you so much for taking part in this weeks challenge, although I have to ask...am I going mad or where you cutting Blue snowflakes on Wednesday??? 😕🤣xxx

Thank you so much Lilian for a truly beautiful challenge card, I can understand why that stamp is one of your favourites, it is beautiful. xxx
