This week at As You Like It Challenge we want to know if you prefer monochrome or colourful creations. I do like to stick to just a couple of colours in my cards, but I can never seem to restrict myself to just one by using different shades and depth for variety. I prefer to co-ordinate a few colours through into embellishments or, in this case, pulling a the dark purple from the image through into the cardstock matting layer.

I love the texture and subtlety of an embossing folder. It's amazing to see a beautifully intricate design appear once you peel away the folder and allow the light to reveal the pattern in its shadows. I've raised the image and layered sentiment on 3D foam pads too for added dimension.

This week at As You Like It Challenge we're asking what your 2 favourite colour combos are. I love pastels, and in particular purple, pink and blue, but as I had to pick only two, I opted for pink and blue for this cute baby bunny card because I love the contrast of the two together.

This week at As You Like It Challenge we want to know if you prefer making girlie or masculine creations. I definitely prefer the pink and fussy cards with lots of flowers, and this one includes my other addiction (cake)!
I've created an apron shaped card to match my baking theme by cutting out the corners of the card top with oval shapes and adding some ribbon between my patterned papers and cardbase.

My favourite Easter critter has to be the cute and fuzzy bunny! I can't resist the cuteness of this small and furry critter. I had a pet bunny when I was a teenager and love seeing them in the wild.
