Give me Five

A recently found German challenge group, Cards und More  again interested me with the current challenge, "Give Me Five". This being Turquoise, Brown or Cream, White, Buttons and Frills. I am so enjoying trying different challenges. This is my card. I used for the background paper from Craftwork Cards, the white punched card was achieved with a Martha Stewart punch, I punched it twice to get more depth. A Marianne die for the flourish.  A Nellie Snellen die for the flowers. the flowers are by Kay Carley for The Stampman . Many thanks ladies for another interesting challenge. 

Cards and More - A Sketch

This is my third post today so please check on Home Page or two items below. I am really enjoying sketch challenges, I wasn't so interested, until recently. I was looking for a sketch and  found, with the help of
 Feline Playful an interesting blog with a lovely sketch, at  Cards und More, which has a Google  translate, very helpful ladies. Another interesting blog I found is Use It Tuesdays, now I along with many other crafters, have decided this year to use up our stash, it is amazing how much is accumulated, so this could become a useful practice, to use it up. Their challenge this week is to commemorate St. Patrick , by using GREEN on your card. therefore I have combined the two in this one card.
I used from old stash the background papers, I stamped with a golden oldie Lily of the Valley fairy stamp and used Promarkers to colour the image. added some glitter, of course, all fairies must have glitter added, and some pearls. A few swirls from  a Marianne die. Tied with a pretty ribbon. Again all old stash. I will add these two blogs to my favourite blogs on my Challenge Blog page here.
