A Card for Just Magnolia's Sketch Challenge

Good Morning All, its been awhile since I used any of my Tilda Stamps and I thought for a change I would give them an airing, this is one of the new ones and she has a cuddly blanket and sucking her thumb, this so reminds me of my middle daughter Sarah as even at 45 she still has a crafty suck of her thumb when shes stressed, not really a good model for her 4 children but I suppose with teenagers its enough to make you want to stuck your thumb, Ive stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used a square Nestabilitie die to cut her out, the image was then mounted on a heart square from Spellbinders. The sentiment is yet another of my stash ones and has been mounted on the same pink card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of pink card and Ive used 3 papers from First Editions "Dreamcatcher" paper pad, the first a cream background with pink butterflies on, for my second I have used a deep purple piece that has lots of flowers and more butterflies on it, and the third is another cream background with a pink chain pattern on.
I then positioned my image in the centre towards the top with the sentiment below on the left. To finish of I have used some of the left over paper to cut out a Royal Rose die cut from Die-namics and rolled it and then stuck it on some punched out pink leaves (left over paper) and put it in the top left hand corner.

A Card for the House Mouse & Friends Challenge

Good Morning Ladies, wow I bet your saying shes actually got her post done early, actually the card was done last night and I just needed to take some photos. Anyway as hubby is doing a bit of extra volunteering today I thought Id make an early start and get this card posted on my No.2 blog, this is for the House Mouse and Friends "Multi Fold" Challenge, and Ive created a twisted easel one for this. Now I know you are probably saying it looks difficult but I can assure you it isnt, instead of folding the front cover straight across you fold it from corner to corner instead, you do have to be careful afterwards when folding down the front card as it will twist and lay at an angle to the inside but its a piece of cake so do have a try.

The image has been stamped onto white card then Ive used my copic pens to colour it after which I used the Nestabilitie Die Label No.17 to cut it out, then used the die to draw around on another piece of card for the mount. The sentiment is one I found on the internet while googling "Flying Sayings" they are quite a good source of different ones.

The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of orange pearlescent card, I have also used the same card for the inside, the two papers Ive used are from the First Editions "Bloom and Grow" set, a pretty leaf pattern for my first paper on a white/cream background, the second is a piece of the green paper with a yellow leaf pattern on but I cut the front cover in a square and used the leaf all around border punch and corner set by Martha Stewart for this one, and for the inside I used a strip and have just done the two edges. The third mount is just off cuts of the first paper thats been turned over (its a double sided paper) this has a orange background with spots on, these were stuck across both the inside and out on some of the left over orange card, then across the middle of both I have wrapped a wide orange satin ribbon around and attached it to the back.

On the inside I have put my sentiment, and on the front my mounted image, to finish of I used five orange roses of different sizes and colours with punched out leaves to create a spray in the top left hand corner and stuck to my card with silicone glue.

This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
