A Day For Daisies - Challenge #83 - Add Some Gold

I enjoyed making this card, but the glitter is going

everywhere - does anyone know how to stop this?

This is not how I started off making this card, as

I had intended for the glittery part to go on top of

the dress, but it was just too much glitter and the

folds on the dress couldn't be seen.

CAS Challenge - Sami Stamps

It's been a little while since I last wrote and that is because I have
updated and now have a new computer with Word 7 on it (an
early special birthday gift from bf).  Until now I have used XP,
which I was very happy with.  I received the computer only
yesterday and still have lots to sort out on it, and, get used to
a new system.

Of course I have been crafting in the meantime.  Good news -
I won a challenge on Core'dinations blog and look forward to
receiving a 12x12 paper pad.  I just love using their cardstock,
but haven't found it to buy here. It's fun paper to emboss and
sand, and they have the most beautiful projects on their blog.

Sad news for lots of crafters, Paper Craft Planet is closing at
the end of the year.  I know that many crafters are going to
miss this site tremendously.  Thank you Susanna for all the
hard work you put into this site.

Now for my card for the CAS challenge.  If this wasn't a CAS
challenge I would have added more bling, but it is a lovely
image and I think I have done justice to it.  Go and visit
Sami Stamps and get this freebie!

Core'dinations - Tami Mayberry - CAS Card Challenge

This is my third challenge card for Core'dinations.  This time we had
to make a CAS card, and usually I do anything but. Mind you I do
know that lots of people prefer simple to fussy.  The card has to
have a sentiment and  up to two embellishments.

Core'dinations Challenge – Kerri Smith Creating With Tags

Taking part in the Core'dinations Challenges I'm getting

more practice at doing tags, and find that I like doing them.

As small as tags are, it is still possible to use lots of

techniques on them.

Core'dinations Challenges - November 1-10, 2012

I just love Core'dinations cardstock – I love embossing,

sanding and distressing it.  Core'dinations are having

10 days of Challenges from the 1^st-10^th of November

and this card I am entering into one of them – I would

be thrilled to win one of their prizes as it is difficult to

get Core'dinations cardstock here and then it is very

expensive.  I have always bought this cardstock

whilst in America, and unfortunately, we had to cancel

this year's trip.

Card For Bugaboo Challenge - October Bingo

I love the humorous stamps from Bugaboo, and am using
one of them for their latest Challenge.  I chose to use
2 designer papers+bling+punch.  The Nestabilities die
can be used with ribbon, which makes a change and
makes the card fancier.  I have also used this die with
just 3 knotted bows.
