Shabby tea room challenge week #154

Hi! Thank you for stopping by my blog today. So the challenge this week at the tea room is called 'A silver lining'. Here are all the details if you fancy taking part:

Hello shabby friends and welcome to another fun week of inspiration and creativity here in the Tea Room!  This week Starr is our creative host and she has chosen the theme of 'A Silver Lining' along with this beautiful photo for inspiration and Starr asks that you create a card or project inspired by the photo incorporating the colors of AQUA AND BROWN AND INCLUDE A SILVER ELEMENT!

 So for my card I actually had a completely different design in mind, but as we sometimes know things don't go to plan :) I am pleased with how the card turned out, and as usual I have added my handmade flowers as I am still obsessed with them. I was going to use a ribbon buckle for the silver element but decided on the clip instead. I used my promarkers to colour in the dog and the flowers.

I would also like to enter this card for word art Wednesday challenge #68 'anything goes'. Please come along and join the challenge they are a lovely bunch of ladies.

Pink owls & flowers: Shabby tea room challenge week #152

Hello again, I hope you are having a good week. I can't believe how fast the last month has gone!

I have been busy making cards this week, looking after my little girl and trying to avoid the bugs and colds.

I have made a card this week for the shabby tea room challenge week 152. Head on over if you would like to take part.

This week at the tea room the challenge was to create a card using this lovely photo and to use the colours pink & blue. You also had to make a birthday card.

Hello shabby friends and welcome to another fun week of inspiration and creativity here in the Tea Room!  This week Lenet is our creative host and she has chosen the theme of 'Happy Birthday in Pink and Blue' along with this beautiful photo for inspiration and Lenet asks that you create a BIRTHDAY card or project using the COLORS FROM THE PICTURE !

So here is my card for the challenge. I handsitched the card front using pink thread, and I also added a cute cloud paper. I thought these two owls were super cute ( unity stamps ) and I stamped them onto pink text paper. I made the pin using a pink button and I also went around the edges of my handmade flowers with a blue marker.
The 'hello my love' journal card from echo park was perfect to stamp my birthday greeting on, and I used my paper smooches greeting stamps.
After adding some twine and  a punched border edge the card is finished.

I would also like to enter this card at http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.co.uk/ challenge # 66. They are really lovely ladies over there so if you want to have a go at the challenge be sure to stop by.

Thank you for stopping by my blog, if you have any questions please ask.
