Literary Inspiration from Mynnette

By
Over on Make My Monday Mynnette has decided that we need a bit of Literary Inspiration to aid us with our challenges - here is what she has come up with


Here is my card


Now I did find this quite a challenge and struggled a little. I used the colours from the book cover - green and blue and combined them with the leafy stamp from My Friend. I also added butterflies and gems. Unfortunately my camera flash has made my colours appear very washed out!



All materials used are stampin' Up
Stamps: My Friend
Inks: Lucky Limeade, Pool Party
Card Stock: Whisper White, Basic Black
Accessories: Basic Rhinestones
Other Non Stampin' Up: Butterfly Punch
(All Stampin' Up items cand be ordered through me and delivered direct to your door - please see all the details in the top tabs - thank you).

It's always lovely to see each week how you interpret our challenges - everyone sees things differently! Don't forget that if you need any more inspiration there is some excellent work by the DT over on the blog and perhaps I shall be visiting you soon - bye for now - Jacqueline xx

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

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting.
