Anyway here are my efforts ...
First up one of my favourite Magnolias ...
Challenges:
Sketch Saturday - sketch (rotated)
Everybody-Art-Challenge - fairy
Just Magnolia - Buttons, bows and bling
Totally Tilda - paper peicing
Totally papercrafts Challenge - glitter
Stamp Something - something with wings
OK my next card ...
This is attempt number 3 ... I tried to include gold embossing in the first couple with disastrous outcomes ... I have been really defeated by that gold embossing powder today!!
Also I can't make my mind up whether it should be this way up or rotated so the thank you reads along the bottom ... see what I mean, really not my crafting day!!!!
Challenges:
Less is More - thank you/Congratulations
Allsorts Challenge - oriental
Totally Gorguss - recipe - 1,2,3 (1 image, 2 stamps, 3 colours, flowers and gems)
I am off to potter in the garden, and hopefully find my mojo!! Catch up with you all this evening .. .Dr Who and blogging :)

Love the first cos' of the cute image and the second cos' you can have the card both ways...very clever indeedee!
enjoy your peace hun...hugs Vicky xx
What was wrong with the gold embossing? We may beable to help with a solution if you tell us the problem.
I think, personally, the elements needed to come together more.Mayeb the daisies from the lop of the y, or bring them all more to the middle I don't mean to say redo it, but maybe for another time
Lovely card, nonetheless, striking colours
Continued thanks

I think your cards are really great, That little Tilda is my favourite, gorgeous card! Hope you feel more inspired soon, it's not much fun if you feel mojo's missing, (he has an awful lot to answer for) LOL :0) xxx
I can sympathise Cathy...it's like having money to spend and not being able to find anything you like to spend it on!
You card is fine, bit there's something a little awry about the positioning of the sentiment, I often like to stamp it onto acetate so that I can take an overview of where the the best position is, before I actually commit ink to paper!

Typical isn't it? Loads of crafting time - no mojo! Don't worry, no-one would ever know! Your LiM card is my favourite!
Looks like your mojo is intact to me ! Great cards especially like the second one.
Marie
They are both lovely cards!
I like both but am commenting on the LIM card. It's lovely and isn't that a good idea to stamp the sentiment on acetate first before positioning? I hadn't thought of that, doh! Hazel x
Love the oriental feel to your card. Just turn the orientation. Fab. x
Two super cards.
