Wedding Card

Wow, I can't believe how quickly it became late tonight. I should be in bed and will be in about 5 minutes flat but first here is a wedding card I made to share with you. I have made one similar before which you can see here and gives credit to Kylie for her great design. Now off to clean my teethy pegs.

Makeesha's Colour Challenge #14 and Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #40

Wow, it has been a few weeks since I have actually completed a card for one of Keesh's weekly challenges. I have a few half started cards (bad me) from previous weeks but I can happily say I have a completed card for this weeks colour challenge with these gorgeous colours. Keesh's examples this week are just stunning so be sure to check them out. To help me out, I'm playing along for the first time with the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge. I really enjoyed using this different layout. So here are the colours and layout I've used.
And here is my creation.... You may need to double click on the photo to make it bigger and easier to see.

Three Challenges In One

Well just a quick post before I go to bed of a card I attempted to make for 3 challenges. I'm afraid the mojo is on holidays so this hasn't turned out as well as I had hoped but too late now. So this card was following the sketch for Pal Paper Arts below
using the colours from Leah's Monthly Challenge which are Kiwi Kiss, Pink Pirouette, Regal Rose, Basic Gray, Basic Black and Whisper White which take inspiration from this gorgeous baby room shot. I also had to slip in Blush Blossom and Close to Cocoa for the skin and hair
and I also used distressing on the card for Charisma Cardz: Challenge 41. It was fun taking to the paper with the scissor edge rather than the distressing tool. So here is the card, sorry it isn't very exciting and for the poor photo quality.

Good Morning Sunshine Pocket Card

Hi there, just another very basic, very under embellished pocket card to show tonight. I needed something quick. There was some stamping done on the little card insert bit too. Well that's it for now. Have a great weekend.

School Holidays - A Few Pics

Well, we recently finished school holidays here. We didn't do anything too exciting as Shane was still at work. We had a few nights camping in our van at Burrum Heads and also a night camping at a friends place for a family reunion party. We also spent a couple of nights in the shed at Boonooroo which was fun and Logan also went to a Fairy and Wizard party at the library. So here is a couple of photos to share.

The first one is Logan with her friends Jenna, Meave and Grace at the Fairy and Wizard party.
The next is Kyan with Michael on the Go Cart at the family reunion. We currently have Kyan's tube out for a trial which has been lovely for him and us. He's not going too bad so far so fingers crossed.
And here is Logan and Kyan playing in Grandpa's dingy at Boonooroo.

Present for Jodi's Birthday

My friend Jodi had a birthday last week and like always lately I was running late getting her little pressie organised. I am happy with how all this came together using the gorgeous Bella Rose DSP's.

I made for Jodi a little 3"x3" Note Card Box with some little note cards in it (instructions on how to make one can be found here), a Box in a Bag full of yummy chocolates which I have made before (instructions can be found here) and one of my favourite little Pocket Cards (instructions can be found here).

I hope she likes it all. All these ideas came from the Splitcoast Stampers website. You can find lots of other great projects they have done tutorials on here. So here are some pics to show you.

I Finally Made Something

Thanks for stopping by. I've just made a couple of these Hanging Treat Boxes found via Splitcoast Stampers. My friend Melissa made me one a couple of months back to thank us for something. Her's looked so cute. Anyway, it was two of my girlfriends birthdays recently (they are sisters too) and they both love Passion Pop, yep Passion Pop, so I made these treat boxes with a block of chocolate and a scratchie in them. Well I'm off to bed, nighty night.
