Stamp something challenge

This week’s challenge over at stamp something is ‘brown plus something’.  I went to a retirement party on Friday night and this is the card I made for the lucky lady, which fits perfectly with their challenge.  I used an image by cc designs called ‘kiki la rue – coffee’ (which is available at dies to die for) and coloured her with my promarkers, adding highlights with white gel pen.  The pink paper is provocraft and the brown paper is making memories.  The border edge was a RAK and the flowers were cut with my ek success (large, medium and small) retro flower punches.  The sentiment is elzybells (which comes as one long sentiment but I cut it apart) and the adhesive stone is PM.  I hope you are all enjoying your Sunday afternoon, it’s not very nice here – quite wet and grey but at least it’s good weather to craft lol!  Thanks for stopping by today. 

Penny Black Challenge and CCT challenge

Due to time constraints my participation in the various challenges around has been very poor of late so this week I decided to try and combine challenges where I could. Therefore I combined the Penny Black challenge (friendship)and the Cute Card Thursday challenge (birthday card) and this is the result. I used a stamped image kindly sent to me (sorry girls I've received so many lately and they've all got mixed up and can't remember who sent it :( I watercoloured the image with marvy markers and highlighted the present with my sakura stardust pen. I stamped the stampendous sentiment and used a provocraft rub-on at the bottom. Flowers and brads from my stash. Ribbon is by American Crafts. Thanks for looking.
