Sunday's Offerings

I have had a really busy Sunday, washed, ironed, washed some more, made tea, and a few cards ... just got some more ironing to do, and finish tea off and then the evening is mine!!

 This is another of Krista's digi images, Nevaeh, and she is coloured using my promarkers.  The dp is Prima Marketing, and the cardstock is SU (Pacific Point and Basic black).  I cut the little heart border using my nestie accents, and added some black flat backed pearls.  A flower with a button at the centre finishes it off.

Challenges:
Dream Valley - buttons - well 1!!
Color Throwdown - Pacific point, Cherry Cobbler, basic black


This is one of Krista's Raggamuffin's - Kate Krafty, and again she is coloured using my promarkers.  The dp is DCWV Nana's Nursery, and I added a layered flower, some ribbon from my stash and a Craftwork Cards sentiment.

Challenges:
just us girls - aqua, pumpkin and kiwi
Sweet Stampin - Flowers and optional sketch

 Finally I made, with the help of my younger daughter, a thank you card for the lady who is supplying our house with what is abecoming a neverending stream of courgettes and pumpkins!!  I coloured the pumpkins and basket, and then Beth added some darker brown to the basket.  I stamped the sentiment onto the cardstock and layered the image on to the mat.  Beth stuck it on the card ... so its not straight .. .not as unstraight as it could be, but nevertheless not straight!!  Ola won't mind!!!  I am trying not to mind!!!

Challenges:
Less is More - anything goes
Stamptacular Sunday - Juat Saying - use a sentiment
Clean and Simple Stamping - sketch
Crazy4 challenge - card with a pumpkin

Fabulous set of cards Cathy! Gorgeous colours. I love how you've defined the pleats on your first card.
I've done some washing and tidying, just need to do some ironing before cutting hubby's hair and showering in time for X Factor!
