Not so vintage

Hello!
I thought I'd be able to enter this in the JAI colour challenge, but I read the colours wrong and used riding hood red, when I should have used cherry cobbler, oh well. I'll still post the card; this was a challenge for me with these colours, they screamed vintage to me and I dont do vintage very well. This card took so many hours of just staring at it and nothing was jumping off the page and the end result I'm still not happy with, I guess you have times like that.



Thanks for stopping by.

Wedding Congrats

Hi again! This card is another case (I promise I do have my own ideas!) but I really liked this card done by Melissa. I loved the modern feel of the card and that it was quite a simple card. The square shape is cut out with stampin' ups top note die cut, here's a video from Mary Fish - enjoy.

I was JAI 74 top pick!

Hi,
Just popping in to say WOW! I jumped on the computer tonight to find that I was this weeks winner at Just Add Ink, with my easel card. It was such a nice surprise as there are always so many great creations and talented crafters out there!


Thanks for looking and try to stay warm!

JAI 74 - Fancy Folds

Good morning!
Here is my entry for JAI. I love that they gave us the challenge of a 'Fancy Fold's' card. I had a hard time choosing which fold I was going to use, but I have always loved easel cards and I never do enough of them. So here is my easel card.



I love how simple they are to make, yet I think they have such a WOW factor!
Thanks for looking and have a good day.

A birthday case

Good Afternoon!
I was going through some of my most loved cards recently, and I wanted to share this one with you. I've been following Soapbox Creations for a while now and I found this card. I loved it as it uses colours which I rarely touch and find quite scary... red & black. I loved Laurie's card so much I cased it.


Hope you have a great day and thanks for looking.
