ANYTHING GOES

Hi Everyone

Hope you are all well.

Before I get started I have a little bit of news to share .....

I've just found out that I was Runner Up in the Simply Cards & Papercrafts Card Designer of the Year for 2013!!

I am so very chuffed and will share the designs I entered some time soon.


Tuesday already so that means it's challenge time over at Papertake Weekly where our theme for this week's challenge is "Anything Goes" - easy peasey huh!  There is also an optional extra to make something to celebrate something new like a new house, new baby etc or what about a new techique you've never done before, it's entirely up to you.

Our generous sponsor for the challenge is Lili of the Valley so why not come and join in the fun with us over at Papertake Weekly and as always, make sure you check out some of the incredible creations the DT ladies have made for your inspiration.

I have gone with the "Anything Goes" theme and here is the card I have made:


Yup, another CAS card - I am loving these at the moment - there is a certain person responsible for this who will remain nameless although she knows who she is and I'm not sure whether to thank her or hunt her down!  Heh heh heh only joking, she has really inspired me so it will be a definite THANK YOU!

The recipe for the card is:

Leaf / Swirl Die:  Craft Ann - Flourish 3
Butterfly Die:  Die-namics - Butterflies
Senitment Stamp:  Clearly Besotted - Thanks a Bunch
Self Adhesive Pearls:  The Hobby House

I have coloured the die cut butterfly with Copics:  YR18 YR16 YR12

And it's as easy as that!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a good week.

Ta ta for now.

I think, it was spooooo awesome, that you got this far, and who knows, it may be just a tiny detail, that made the difference, you just never know, and also depending on, WHO was looking at it that specific day, maybe if it had been another person, it had won, it´s definitely worth it that´s for sure. It´s gorgeous hun and in my eyes you ARE a winner, no matter what. You really do make such awesome work always.
have a great day and lots of fun, that´s what it´s all about.
