A Card for Satuarated Canary Challenge "Reds, Pink and White"

Good Afternoon Everybody, well Ive just finished doing a pile of ironing, not my most favourite job but one none the less has to be done. Im so lucky with my dear hubby Ian he helps around the house now hes retired we have jobs we both do and the ironing is not one he can do, or at least he says he carnt. Hes gone of this afternoon to visit his mum who will be 92 next month, hes been going daily for just over a week now as she had a slight stroke and its left her paralysed down the left side, shes having great difficulties eating and swallowing and at one time she just refused to drink anything, as she has dementia its not easy to persuade her to do anything she doesnt want to, but the doctor threatened her with going into hospital and by a miracle she started drinking again. Mind you I wouldnt want to be the care assistants in the home shes in as she more likely to bite you if youve got your hand anywhere near her.
Now back to my card, its the freebie that Krista so kindly gave out last week and I think shes gorgeous and as the Challenge theme is Red, Pink and White, I hope this qualifies as being that, Ive coloured her with my copic and tria pens then used Nestabilitie Die No.17 to cut her out then used the die itself to draw around to create the mount for it. The card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of red card, and Ive used two papers from the Bo Bunny "Crush" Collection, the first is a black background with branches and birds on and the second is a white background with the same birds on but with the added birdcages as well, I cut this one into a 5" square and used a bird border and corner punch on it.
The sentiment is one of the CC ones and this has been cut out and mounted on a label thats been attached to the card with red brads, and the bird cage that I was sent from my lovely friend Tracy of Dies to Die for, I must find out whos it is as I rather like it.
The final thing is the red rose spray in the top left hand corner which I have attached to the card with some silicone glue on top of some punched out rose leaves.

A Card for Several Challenges

Good Afternoon Everyone, well the sun is out but its still very cold her in Gloucestershire, we took Missy for a walk this afternoon and let her of the lead to run around, she loved it, shes never been allowed of the lead before and as we both went out with her I thought if she was naughty at least between us we could probably catch her. Its always a worry when you first let them of to run around but so far things are looking good, though how she will behave when she meets other dogs Im not sure but we shall see.
Anyway todays card has been mainly created for all the "Love" Challenges that are on offer at the moment and Ive also created it for the Joanna Sheens one as well, I used this sweet image of these House Mice and coloured them with my copics and tria pens, then used Nestabilitie Die No.9 to cut her out then drawn around the die to create the mount. The sentiment is yet another of the same stamps from the House Mouse set.
Ive used a 6"x 6" white card for my base and a first mount of red card, and two of the papers from the Bo Bunnys "Crush" Collection and I used the second paper with a Cheery Lynn Heart die to cut them out, and layered them up on top of the first paper. Across the middle I have wrapped a piece of lace and a red ribbon and attached them to the back of the first mount. The mounted image was then positioned in the middle with the sentiment at the bottom on the right. The last flourish is the two heart gems at the top on the right hand side.
