 Maria

Maria has covered all occasions with her Challenge cards, using Angels, Planes & Butterflies for her 'Wings' 

Card 1: Maria has used one of Sue Wilson's Angels as the main focus of thd card, die cutting her in Gold which works perfectly with the cream background,  that has been embossed with snowflakes,  the embellishment Maria has used is Sue Wilson Poinsettia which is placed beside the sentiment on a die cut banner.

Card 2:  A perfect 'Man' card, Maria had used a RAF Harrier Jet Decoupaged topper as the main focus for this card,  using mats of blue card for the background,  a great card for Men.

Card 3:  Maria had used an absolutely stunning topper featuring pretty vases of flowers with butterflies flying around them. A beautiful card Maria. 

Thank you so much for taking part and making 3 fantastic cards, I hope you enjoy your few days away xxx

Michele 

Michele has gone for a Butterfly for her Challenge card, cleverly using it as a base for the sentiment. 

The card was made using one of the lovely  'Apple Blossom ' dies, that we all love, I like them as they make such a quick card but you can also really dress them up to make them into a really special occasion card.

Michele has used the matching dies to create that pretty lace edged border and added the pretty butterflies. 

Thank you so much for such a pretty card Michele XXX 

 Pat

Pat's 'Things with Wings' card features a lovely Robin. It is of course a lovely 'Groovi'  card.

I love the Robin Pat,  you have coloured him perfectly, I love that you have included his 'footprints ' as it gives a fun element to the card, he looks like he is eyeing up those Holly Berries. 

Layering onto the Red background works really well too.

Thanks Pat for sharing such a lovely card XXX

Lilian 

Lilian has made a beautiful  'Just a Note' card for this weeks Challenge .  As always with Lilian's card  every part of the card is perfect,  the blue section of the card actually looks like linen,  I am guessing it's a stamp, upon which Lilian has placed the beautifully stamped and coloured Bird, the foliage and berries really stand out from the background. Your card looks like a pretty Mixed Media card, I love the look Lilian,  thank you so much for taking part, despite feeling under the weather  XXX 

Janet

Janet, how you managed to fit in time to make two amazing Challenge cards with everything else you have had to do this week, but you did and they are both stunning!

Janet's Description:

"My First card is made using a Tonic Edger die and the butterflies are also Tonic. The sentiment is Crafter's Companion.

"My second card is also made using Tonic Dies 'Wings and Things' decorated with stones and sequins from my stash box. I highlighted the Fairy's shoes and skirt. The sentiment is also Tonic from the same set (I think)."

Thank you Janet, Bon Voyage!!! Enjoy your  break in paradise ! XXX 

 Brenda

Brenda has used Butterflies for her 'Wings' for this week's Challenge, such a beautiful card! 

Brenda's Description:

"Yes it’s a Butterfly!  I have had the Crafters Companion EF for ages, I think it was one of the early Cut and Emboss folders. I ran my card in the EF through my machine, added some mounting foam to the back and stuck it to my card, then I put in scraps of card just where the butterflies are, cut them out then attached these on top of the butterflies on my card just for a little more interest, added a sentiment and a few flowers - job done! "

I love everything about your card Brenda, thank you so much for taking part XXX

Karen

Karen managed to squeeze in making 3 Challenge cards featuring 'Things With Wings', I love them all, my favourite is definitely the 3rd card with its 'Wobbly Birds' !!

Karen's Description:

Hearts and Roses digikit cut on ScanNCut and I’ve used CS  Diamond Sprinkles (I know it doesn’t really show)

Second one a Serif background and embellishment from Serif ‘Tis the Season

The sentiment is a die cut from a magazine freebie I edged the background with CS Iced Snow

Serif ‘Tis the Season I used DO around card blank and spritzed with water I fussy cut the birds again and mounted them onto a zigzag of acetate When you hold the card they wobble as if they are shivering.

Thank you so much Karen for finding time to make 3 incredible cards, I really appreciate it XXX
