Hey Everyone

It’s time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.  This week the marvellously talented Rita Wright is our sketch hostess.  Take a look at her great sketch.

I needed a birthday card for a 17 year old girl who is the daughter of a work colleague.  The colours on her invitation for her party are Black, Gold and White.  I always put so much pressure on myself when I am asked to create a card specifically for an occasion – I would much rather them choose one of my existing cards!  Here’s what I came up with:

Hey Everyone

This weeks challenge at Just Add Ink was suggested by Rochelle – take a look at the pretty colours she has given us to use:

As colour challenges still scare me, I searched around for a sketch that I could use for the layout.  This weeks Mojo Monday sketch really appealed to me.

I finally put in a Stampin’ Up! order and just received Butterfly Basics.  I really love this pretty flower.  I can see it’s going to be my go-to flower stamp for a while. Here’s my card:

Just Add Ink Challenge #169

Hey Everyone

Delys has found a beautiful photo for this weeks inspiration challenge at Just Add Ink. Have a look at these gorgeous colours in the photo:

A few of the girls from the Design Team have gone for very creative backgrounds on their cards, so I decided to give it a go too.  I found this gorgeous card on Pinterest and loved the effect the technique gave to the background.  I took inspiration from the three silhouettes in the photo and added three black banners with a black rolled rose, black buttons and black leaves.  I sponged Midnight Muse and Melon Mambo onto my card, but looking at it now the colours aren’t as vibrant as the inspiration photo.

Anyway, here’s my card:
