More words of wisdom...

These are some more cards I created for our challenge at Ooh-la-la-creations this week. I would love to say that I created the background papers from scratch but I didn't! I used one of the papers from the DCWV vintage collection which I then stamped with a fern rubber stamp.

Materials used:

• DCWV paper from 'Olde Worlde' paper stack
• gold mirror card
• brown card
• gold brads
• fern rubber stamp by 'Make your mark' at York
• Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad in Mahogany
• clear rubber quotation stamps from the 'memories' collection by Cloud 9 design
• cream organza ribbon
• scalloped circle punch

Words of Wisdom...

Our challenge at http://ooh-la-la-creationschallenges.blogspot.com/ this week is to use a quote in your work.

I used an image from the CD 'Silhouette Magic' and a quote from the Quote Garden to complete my card.

My quote reads...

'There is a garden in every childhood, an enchanted place where colours are brighter, the air softer and the morning more fragrant than ever again by Elizabeth Lawrence'.

Do visit our challenge blog and take part if you have time. It would be great to have lots of entries.

OCC Birthday Challenge...

Luckily the challenge at http://ourcreativecorner6.blogspot.com/ is to make a birthday card and gives me the ideal opportunity to add this card to my blog. It's the card I made to give James from me and Shelley.

The frog and pocket stamp I've used are from a fantastic set by Stampin up. I bought them on ebay a little while ago and have been looking forward to an excuse to use the pocket stamp to make a money holding pocket on a card.

Materials used:

• pocket and frog stamp by Stampin up
• computer generated 'Hoppy Birthday' background paper
• green and white card
• green and white background paper by DCWV (I think!)
• denim paper
