PBSC October Challenge

  Good Morning!

Apologies for the lack of cards this year, I do keep trying to make some but things just seem to get in the way. I managed to make a card for this month's PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE and I'm sure you'll also be glad to see that it's in my usual style, not clean and simple! 
This month's challenge is 'Anything Goes or Colour Inspiration!' 

I've made a Halloween card using the colours Black and Orange from the inspiration board. Halloween is actually one of my favourite occasions to design for, it's just a shame we don't celebrate it as much in the UK!


INGREDIENTS -
Penny Black 'Witchy Mouse' Wooden Stamp
Sentiment by Stamping Bella
Bo Bunny Papers
Paper Doily, Ribbon, Assorted Flowers & Berries
Papermania Neon Shimmer Dome Stickers

A Silver Wedding Anniversary!

   Good Morning!

Today I have something a little different to share with you all. I was asked to make a Silver Wedding Anniversary card for one of my Mum's friends and I must admit at first I was a little bit stumped. In the end I opted to use text as the main focal point and add a variety of embellishments around it. I'm not too sure if I've used the right font if I'm honest but I think it's okay? 
It's slightly wider than my usual size of card due to the die - cuts (kindly sent to me by a fellow crafter a few years ago) so it wasn't the easiest to get the best angle when taking a photograph lol

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges -
CUTE CARD THURSDAY - ANYTHING GOES

 INGREDIENTS -
Text written on computer
Maja Design Papers
Ribbons, Die-cuts & Flowers
Papermania Shimmer Dome Stickers
