I am so thrilled to be a Guest Designer for Makeesha’s Colour Challenge this week.
We had some of my favourite colours to work with which made it less of a ‘challenge’ I suppose although so far, being that it’s school holidays, I’ve still only managed 1 card for the Challenge. Hopefully I’ll get to make a few more.
When I first saw the colours I immediately was drawn to the Crazy for Cupcakes stamp set.
Here are the gorgeous colours we got to play with and now you can too. Just create a card or project using the colours in the challenge, pop on over to Makeesha’s site, scroll down till you find the InLinkz “Add Your Link’ button and add your details. Maybe you’ll have the opportunity of being a Guest Designer next……..
And here is my full creation. Unfortunately the colours on the cupcakes don’t show up as well in this photograph but you can see it better in the close up above.

Regal Rose would have to be my all time favourite Pink to date and So Saffron my all time favourite Yellow however I am holding out to see the new Daffodil Delight when it’s released here in Australia on 1st September. Maybe with the new colour changes my all time favourites might change too…..lol
I’ve kept the card fairly simply and used the Saturday Sketch Challenge 158 from Stamping 411. I’ve added one of Teneale Williams Perfect Faux Bows and you can’t really tell on this full card but on the snippet above you might be able to see that I’ve added some Crystal Effects to the cherries……
Supplies: Stamp sets: Crazy for Cupcakes Card: Chocolate Chip, So Saffron, Very Vanilla Ink: Stazon Black, So Saffron, Regal Rose, Chocolate Chip Accessories: Regal Rose 5/8” Grosgrain Ribbon, So Saffron button (Button Latte), Hemp Twine, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Blender Pen, Mini Glue Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Till next time…..

I love the colours in Makeesha’s Colour Challenge #30 so have combined it with another Sketch for a second card. This time the Sketch is from Card Positioning Systems and is Sketch #174.
Here is the sketch provided along with those gorgeous colours again.

For my creations this time I’ve used the Cottage Garden Stamp set which is another in this month two-step into fabulous promotion.

Another ‘different’ card for me but a sketch I’m going to play with a bit more. As I was playing along with the colour challenge also I was a little limited on embellishments/accents I could use but I’m still happy with the outcome.
Supplies: Stamp sets: Cottage Garden Card: Kraft, Whisper White, Old Olive Inks: Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry Accessories: 1 1/4” & 1” Circle Punches, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Rhinestone Brads – Ice, Paper Piercing template & tool.
Till next time…..

Yes it’s another challenge card. This time I’ve used Mercy Tuesday’s Sketch Challenge #81 combined with Playful Petals stamp set.
Here’s the challenge sketch.

And here’s my creation.

I’m still a little unsure about this card. I’m wondering if I should have stamped the sentiment on the bottom of the oval piece and put something else in the lower left corner. I tried a few things before actually sticking things down but nothing seemed to look any better.
Any suggestions???
Supplies: Stamp sets: Playful Petals, Best Yet (Hostess Level 1) Card: So Saffron, Pretty in Pink, Whisper White, Watercolour Paper, Tea Party DSP Inks: Stazon Black, Almost Amethyst inkpads, So Saffron, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery & Almost Amethyst Stampin’ Write Markers. Accessories: So Saffron brad (Rich Regals), Aqua Painter, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Oval cutter (non-SU)
Till next time……

It has been such a long time since I have participated in any Challenges but today I managed to get a few done. I’ll be sharing them over the next few days but I have to get this one up straight away as the deadline is 11.59pm tonight for JAI #24…… Talk about last minute.
I’ve teamed the JAI #24 Challenge with Makeesha’s Colour Challenge #30.
This is the Sketch we got to work with……. and here is the Colour Challenge……..

And here is my card I created……

Till next time…..

After using this gorgeous new Level 2 Hostess set from the Autumn/Winter Mini to make Marelle’s Shoebox swap card I knew I just had to ink up my own and make something. I decided to check out some of the past Elite Challenges and picked out the Sketch Challenge from January this year and the Colour Challenge from November last year.
Here’s what I ended up with…..

Supplies: Stamp sets: Asian Artistry (Level 2 Hostess set Autumn/Winter Mini) Card: Always Artichoke, Mellow Moss, Very Vanilla, Riding Hood Red Patterns DSP Ink: Mellow Moss, Always Artichoke, Riding Hood Red & Chocolate Chip Accessories: Chocolate Chip 5/8” Grosgrain ribbon, Paper Piercing template & tool, Sponge Dauber.
Tomorrow I’ll be sharing the Birthday Invitations I made for one of my girls upcoming 10th Birthday Party.
Till next time…..
