Girly but blue...

This week's challenge on http://magnoliachallengeblog.blogspot.com/ was to make a card for a girl but it had to be BLUE!!!

My card is a birthday one and I've used the layout from http://ismaki.wordpress.com/ - but as per usual I'm very late as the sketch I've used is sketch 14. Ah well one day I will be on the right week at the right time!!

Love this hat!!

Love this image - such a gentle sophisticated lady - oh how I wish I looked like that in a hat! My daughter says I have to have one for her graduation which fortunately isn't while next year so I have plenty of hat trying on time to go yet.

This card is made using an image and two backing papers from the 'Passion for Fashion' CD. I printed both the topper and the backing papers out on silk photo paper. Love the gentle finish it has to it.

The layout of the card is CPS 45 from http://cardpositioningsystems.blogspot.com/. Thank you for sharing these wonderful card layouts. They are so useful and inspiring.

Exciting News and new cards...

I have been keeping this news to myself for a whole week now as I didn't want to say anything until I had a couple of cards done and ready to upload to go with the announcement.

My very good friend, Wendi, has asked me to be the very first member on her design team!! Me on a design team - oh wow!!!Wendy is a very clever lady who with her daughter, Emma, designs some fabulous CDs for card making and scrapbooking.

You can see these CDs at http://ooh-la-la-creations.com/default.aspx.

These cards are from her 'Passion for Fashion' CD which is my favourite at the moment.
