So Sweet

 When I looked at this image, I thought immediately of a lattice pie so I found a digital paper and a sentiment that matched the theme.

I Treasure Our Friendship

Today is the reveal of the cards posted in January for the Card Chain Challenge.

For the January Card Chain Challenge, I sent a card to Ellie in Illinois.

These were the prompts that we had:

I used the sketch, colours, New (word on scraps), Scraps, Friendship, Glitter and Sequins and Embossing Folder.  

I also followed a tutorial for a Scraps Background from Anna Helman.

The papers that I used are all from Trimgym

I recieved this card from Pia in Norway which arrived well before the end of January so it looks like the postal system might be getting a bit more reliable.  Hopefully I won't jinx it with saying that!

You're so sweet

I've been digging in my Awaiting Crafting boxes again - for the image and sentiment.

Happy New Year

So far, this year has been all about the rain.  Considering that it is summer here and that I work outdoors in summer I'm not looking forward to going back to work on Monday!  I really hope that the rain lets up for a while but considering the thunderstorms last night I somehow doubt it!

Kid's Christmas

I didn't intend to have such a child's feel to this card but when the reverse of the paper was a dog image, I decided to work with this combo.    The more I looked at it the more it started feeling as a child's card!

I changed one of the elements on the sketch from circle to oval - as I had already die-cut the image for another card which didn't get completed!
