St Luke's Charity Card Challenge.

By
I have been meaning to join in with this challenge blog for a while now but I've only just got round to doing so. Not only does this blog raise awareness of the charity but if you send them your card they can sell it to raise much needed funds - did you realise that they have to find 4 million pounds a year? Anyway I'm having a go, here is my card
The challenge is to produce a card that is Black and White and one other colour. You can use tones of the third colour and Grey.
So today I have combined one of my own stamps and the fern frond from Growing Green. My third colour was red as when I designed this stamp I had poppies in mind. I coloured it in with Promarkers and hand drew the frame with a black fine liner. As in my previous card I masked off the flowers with post it notes to enable me to over lap and add depth.
Please pop over and check out the St Luke's challenge and I will be back soon - Jacqueline xx

    I really like this 'popping out of the frame' thing you're doing at the moment Jacqueline. The stamps look great and the card is for a very good cause too. Vx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
