Going to the Ball

This gorgeous Day for Daisies image is from the CDAC Progressive Freebie challenge, which I bought into last week; I'm going to try to play along each week for a while. All the folds in the dress colour like a dream, I loved making this card.  The DP is Crafty Individuals and I made it very girly with lace, ribbon and pearls, as well as some dry embossing.  The Swiss Dots are at an angle of the card, this was deliberate, honest lol! 
My card is for:
Pixie Cottage - sketch
Totally Papercraft - ribbons & bows
Paper Sundaes - birthday
Incy Wincy - birthday
Creative Inspirations - inspired by polka dots (embossed dots)

Petunia Jar

This is another card that I made using the new release form Tiffany Doodles, this is called Petunias in a Jar.    The DP is Prima, I've used a wide Martha Stewart punch, ribbon from stash and a Craftwork Cards sentiment.  Image is colured with Copics, Distress Ink on the background and lots of Glossy Accents on the jar.
I'm entering my card for some challenges:
2 Sisters  - anything goes
Creations by Gill - pink and green and flowers
Crafty Catz - pink and green
Totally Papercrafts - pink and girlie
Ai Factory - pretty in pink

Oh Deer!

This is a card for a good friend and I really have no excuse for its lateness, life has been a bit frantic lately.  I've used an image from Tiffany's Doodles called Sleeping Fawn, this is such an adorable Spring baby!  I've followed Card Pattern's sketch and kept things fairly simple, I've recycled some ribbed brown card for the Cuttlebugged circle and to mount the computer generated sentiment.  The DP is a My Mind's Eye Christmas one from a few year's back, there are snowflakes in the background of that neutral stripe.  Colouring is Copics and Distress Inks, twine came from Stamp Attic.
My card is for the following challenges:
Card Patterns - sketch
Stamptacular Sunday - no kids allowed - birthday! 
Totally Gorjuss - spring is sprung - here's a spring baby!
Totally Papercrafts - cuddly & cute
