2 Sketches 4 You 1st Annual Ultimate Card Showdown

Hi,

I came back from dancing the night (well, morning) away and was still full of energy so thought I'd make another wedding card. I chose the sketch from 2 sketches 4 you which is the 1st Annual 2 Sketches 4 You Ultimate Card Showdown!

Ended up being quite a quick card to make but I love the result and will definately do variations on it again! I just love how well this paper and stamp go together!!

Patterned paper is from the Papermania Sweet Nothings stack.
Card and adhesive heart were all from stash.
Stamp was a freebie from a magazine.
I used my new fiskars scalloped lace border punch for the brown cardstock and layered it over a piece of blue satin ribbon, it means it shimmers a bit in the light!
The birds were coloured with twinkling h2os.

Hope you like it!

2 new cards for you!

I've got quite a few weddings coming up so thought I should make a start on cards for them.

Here's one I made today, it also works for these challenges

Allsorts Challenge - Curly Swirly - I've wrapped the rose stems around toothpicks to get them curl.

Daring Cardmakers - Take 5 - There are 5 mini pearls on the card - 4 on the paper and 1 on the bow wrapping the roses.

Polka Doodle - Sketch.





The lighting is a bit dark, hopefully you can see all the detail - I'll try and take some more tomorrow.
I'll also be back tomorrow to update on materials. I need to get this post out and off to bed, got to be up for work in 4 hours!!!

On to card number 2...
This also works for a few challenges
Charisma Cards - Going dotty - dotty ribbon, dotty flower, dotty paper used on present.
Penny Black Saturday Challenge - sketch
The Pink Elephant - Recipe : 3 buttons, 2 layers and 1 sentiment




Again, check back tomorrow for more info on how I made them etc!

Sorry for not being able to do it now!
