Happy Birthday Mum

Its my Mum's birthday ... and here are the cards the girls have made for her ...

Ellie's

Beth's

 They were allowed to use my promarkers and copics ... I supervised them VERY closely lOL!!!  And they raided the limited stash of bling I had brought with me as we are on holiday ... all the bling is now on their cards!!!

If you would like to visit their blog and add a comment (which they would love to read!!) please click the link in my sidebar.

And I have maded this White on White card using Joy from Sugar Nellie.
I coloured her using my grey promarkers and then matted her onto embossed cardstock (thank you Ali!!) and added a ribbon.
This is alot more in my comfort zone than this week's Less is More challenge ... I felt like curling up under a stone and hiding ... totally failed on that one!!!
Challenges:
One Stop Craft - monochromatic

I shall join you under that stone Cathy - I just CANNOT do a single layer - I have tried but the PERFECTIONIST imp insists on sitting on my shoulder to oversee the goings on & I'd never get any cards made!! I can see why you opted for monochrome - when all your colours were being monopolized......it certainly looks like all your bling went "blinging" away from you. Impressed by your crafting on holiday though. Love your monochrome card I have to say the grey is so so effectively soft.

Your girls are very talented too - I bet your Mum was thrilled! And your white card is stunning - the white is so elegant and your colouring/shading is brilliant.
