Sketch Time at CC&S

By
Good morning - it's the first challenge of the New Year over at CAS - Colours & Sketches and we have a sketch for you - take a look


And here is my card


I have used my FREE Sale-a-bration set Lotus Blossom, isn't it lovely? Three stamps layered up create this beautiful flower. I stamped the first image in white craft ink onto Crumb Cake card stock. The next layer was added in Crisp Cantaloupe and the third in Calypso Coral. I then cut it out and attached it using dimensionals.

Thanks for looking today - please do pop over to the blog to take a look at all the other wonderful cards from the dt - we have two new dt ladies too so do say 'hi'.

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
