.... mentioned anything to do with resolving to create more in my last post. Flippin' kiss of death, that was!!!
It's been a loooooooong, dreary January - can't believe we've only done three weeks back at school - feels like twice that. Oh well, only two more until half term!! We've got quite a few family and friend birthdays in February, so I hauled myself up from hiberation on the couch and made this for a little pal:
I'm entering this into the following challenges:
Fussy and Fancy Friday ("Polka Dots"),
Creative Card Crew ("Seeing Red"),
My Time to Craft ("Favourite Embellishment" - mine is stitching and ribbon),
Passion for Promarkers ("Recycle Something" - the ribbon is from a box of chocolates),
ABC Challenge ("Happy Birthday"),
Basic Grey Challenges ("Favourite Things" - mine are papers and stitching),
Creative Inspirations and
Simon Says Stamp both have "Anything Goes" challenges and
Truly Scrumptious ("Something Forgotten" - I dug out the Sugar Nellie stamp).
Here's a close-up of the image and the name banner:
Recipe:
Papers: Crate Paper "Emma's Shoppe" and BG "Piccadilly"
Image: Sugar Nellie "Manga Girl"
Doily Die Cut: Cheery Lynn "French Pastry"
Colouring Medium: Promarkers
Other: Pink Paislee die-cut numbers, ribbon from chocs, needle & thread
Thanks for looking!

Oh is this adorable or what, squealing at this end in delight, love all the colour combos, oh just everything...thanks for joining us at Simon Says Challenge blog
Love your card, Julie and the recykled ribbon is very cute on the card. Thanks for joining our challenge at PFP:)
Hey, Sweet Julie! I love the reds and blues here...especially those polka dots :) In my opinion this would also qualify for this week's Shopping Our Stash challenge "Winter Blues" create a card that is mostly blue. Your card has more blue than red...I hope you enter :)
Thanks for wishing me luck on the purge...my dh's cousins called and will pop in for a visit at lunchtime, so I was extra motivated to work hard on that mess. I'll do as much as I can this morning before they arrive. Nope, no BG in the sale box...it is still one of my favorites, but I am more excited by My Mind's Eye and Echo Park this year. I have just a little new BG, but lots of MME and EP. So cute of you to notice!!!
My parents are going to Ireland in a couple of months to visit my sister and her husband, who live in Ireland. If I ever go, I am visiting YOU!
Very bright and cheerful card. I'm sure your little pal will love it. Gorgeous recycled ribbon, too!
A gorgeous card! Love the name banner. Thanks for joining us at Basic Grey challenges. Hugs Mieko xx
