Make a wish...

I created this card or the latest challenge over at 

Craft Your Passion (CYP)

Challenge # 290

Theme - Always Anything Goes

Sponsored by Stitchy Bear

I used the image Silhouette cats which can be found HERE in the Sitchy Bear shop.

I created the background with chalks...and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.  I'm sure you crafty folk know that sometimes what's in your mind doesn't always translate well when it's done!!
I thought the Make a Wish sentiment was perfect for this card.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Craft Your Passion (CYP)  this week.

Holly ornament

I created this card for the latest challenge over at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges

Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges

Challenge #61

Embossing (wet or dry)

I used the cute image Holly from the Flower Pot Pretties collection over at Lacy Sunshine.

You can find this cute image here.

I coloued her with copics and matted her on a white embossed card-base, then added that to a red card, attached my favourite green/white/red twine and the card was almost done.

Just a little clear stickles on the ornament was needed to finish this off.

I hope you like what I've created and are inspired to play along with us at Holly Jolly.

I coloured this image with copics and di some hand piercing and hand stitching around the patterned papers.  It's hard to see in the photo. 

 I used a sentiment from Stampin' Up from several years ago, 

which I think is just PAR-fect for this creation.
