So here is my entry. I'm busy making cards for my craft show as I'm up to date on my own personal card-giving and family orders and I needed a congrats card so thought this would be perfect. I coloured the FF bear with watercolour pencils and added Stickles to highlight the champagne. The paper is all by Making Memories from a set I love. I used a corner rounder punch so soften off the image and the sentiment is recycled off a card I'd received.

The second card I've made is for the Inspirational Card Sketches Challenge and surprise, surprise is a sketch!
Here is my interpretation of the sketch. As you can see I made a bit of a boo boo with the sentiment. I'd already cut round the image and then realised the sentiment was meant to be at the base so I put it underneath instead! The image is one I had, I think maybe it's Hero Arts, I'm not sure. I coloured it with copics to make it look like an England strip. As it's a card for my craft show stock, I thought every kid loves England rather than making a Man Utd card or something and limiting my audience!! The papers are Making Memories, the sentiments are both rub ons and the little circles were created using nesties.

This last card is just a simple one I knocked up for stock. Stamp is Penny Black coloured with copics and Stickles and cut out using Nesties. Papers are all by Papermania. Sentiment is recycled and flowers are from Ebay and tiny pink gems from KookyKards.
