Totally Papercrafts Challenge

I am all confused by the days this week ... what with a bank holiday and the girls not going back to school until Wednesday, I had to pinch myself to realise it was Friday!! And Friday means time for another Totally Papercrafts Challenge.  All the DT girlies are back refreshed after their Christmas break, and we have some fab challenges and prizes lined up for you this year.

It's Anne's turn to set the theme for this week and she has chosen this fab sketch by our lovely Sue.

and our sponsor
with this prize

I used my fab new Hero Arts stamp (thanks Gran!!), and having created the background using distress inks. stamped it onto in sepia versafine ink.  The dp is Basic Grey Orgins, and I made the flowers by cutting out Marianne Creatible flowers and snipping into the petals lots.  Finally some card candy coloured brown and that's it really.


Challenges:
 Ladybug - anything goes and new stash
The Paper Shelter - anything goes
Papertake Weekly - anything goes
Fab n Funky - something new
Cute Card Thursday - use something new
Little Miss Muffet  - something new
Card Making Mamas - new year card or something new

Beautiful card, Cathy. Love the way you inked that flower - it looks so pretty and delicate.
