Pink!
Today's card is a very simple one - A piece of pink card embossed with my paisley folder, and lightly 'smooched' with Impress 'cupid pink' ink pad. Stamped with words from a Hero Arts set, and finished with a 'nestie butterfly in darker pink and vellum.

Blue & Brown
The challenge at Sunday Stamper is for blue and brown so have made this card using the two colours.
The brown is Adirondack Expresso and I used it for the image, as well as sponging the edges of the pale brown card and top layer. The blue layer was run through the cuttlebug with my paisley folder, and then highlighted a little with a white ink pad. The image is from a new stamp set that I won from The Creative Pointe, and I finished off with 3 blue gems, twine which is wound 3 times around the top layer and a brown button.
I would also like to enter at Marks Finest Papers - 3 of something, and SJCrafts - use your favourite. (my cuttlebug)

Emboss resist
This circular card was made with scalloped circles by Nestabilities. I cut a smaller size to layer on the front.. The stamp ( a lovely prize from Blockheads) is stamped with an Emboss It Clear pad, and then clear EP and heated.
I then rubbed in Distress Inks, antique linen, dried marigold, and worn lipstick. This immediately makes the image pop. I then finished with a flourish stamp and some paper flowers.

Monochrome
This is my first post in nearly a month as we have been away. I saw the challenge at Papercraft weekend was for monochromatic and I was keen to try out a stamp from a set that I won from
Chocolate Baroque.
The card is a pretty blue metallic finish, and I have used Midnight Blue to stamp with. I lightly coloured the flowers with Promarkers, and finished off with some blue gems.
I would also like to enter the following challenge.

'tagging'
This is a tag card that I made for my daughter and SIL who celebrate their anniversary on the same day as we do.
It is partly embossed and then coloured with an ink pad.. The flower was hand cut after making some paper from Neil Walker's instructions. The centre of the flower is a broken piece of jewellery, but fnished it off nicely

Bright and Cheerful!
Today's card has a background that is embossed in my cuttlebug.
The image (a magazine freebie) was stamped on a scalloped circle, and coloured with markers and Sakura glaze pens. I sponged some colour around the edge and added 3 buttons and 3 snippets of ribbon
