Hiya Sausage


I'm on a roll this is my second card today and not a button in sight
.The Pink Elephant challenge 31 was for a colour combo of Red,Yellow,Black and White. Yellow and Red together not sure about that. I have managed to make a very simple card using a lovely image from Pollycraft called 'Hiya Sausage' which I think is so cute. No rocket science here I have just layered the papers,used a stamp for the sentiment and lucky for me I had a small red flower which I stuck on and drew in a stem .Punched a few small hearts to finish off.

Reindeer Romance

Three challenges combined in one card.

Pollycraft 'Furry Friends ' challenge 23.The reindeer image is a freebie from the very generous Pollycraft which gives me my 'Furry Friends .The image was only for one reindeer but I copied and reversed the image to make two.The red hearts have all been heat embossed and I have given them different coloured hooves cos one is a guy and one is a gal.

Cupcake challenge 55, 3 buttons,2 papers and 1 ribbon.The red paper is from my stash,the patterned paper is Holly from Paper Pizazz.The buttons are from Jesse James Beads.A gold ribbons finishes off this challenge.

Pink Elephant challenge 30, 2 squares, 1 ribbon and sparkles. I have punched two squares from sparkly glitter card and turned them on there ends,again the gold ribbons completes the challenge.

Birthday




Pink Elephant challenge 29 . No pink elephants but gold instead.This very simple layout gave me the chance to use this beautiful stamp the star . I bought in India and it is a solid piece of wood which has a perfectly flat surface and it has been intricately carved to make this cute elephant.I don't get to use it often enough.All the paper used is birthday wrap, my only real contribution was to punch out the circles and flowers.I have stamped and heat embossed the elephant.I don't usually use peel offs but it ties in with the rest of the card.
