CPS - Sketch 202

A lovely sketch over at CPS this week.  I've been  meaning to join in with one of their sketches for a while now but never seemed to have the time, but this week I made time. 

 I always love making these paper flowers, I thought they'd work well with the design of these lovely papers.  If you'd like to have a go, there's a tutorial to make them on my blog HERE. 

It's going to be crafting weekend for me - lot's to catch up with!  TFL :)x

All About Me

The current dare over at DCM this week is All about Me - to make a card you'd like to receive.  Well my card had to use papers and an image from Pink Petticoat, they've always been a favourite with me.  It had to be this semi circle shape too!   It's always the shape I go for when I'm struggling with my mojo, ever since I made the first one back HERE last year. I find it an easier shape to work with than a whole circle or a square.  It's easy to make too, no fancy templates or circle cutters required. 

Just take an A4 sheet of cardstock and fold in half .  Use anything circular to draw around, I use this oversized badge, it's about 15cm in diameter.  Then cut out - simples!

'Love' Card Take 2

I was never really happy with THIS card so I recycled it into this!  I'm a lot happier with this one and I'm entering it in the 'A Stitch In Time' challenge over at Let's Craft and Create. 
I'm off to take the photos of my current DT make for Pink Petticoat, while we've still some daylight.  I''ve used the new release Perfect Papers and they are just that - perfect.  I wish I couild say the same for my card though, another one I'm not happy with but time is running out!
