Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper June 2017 challenge

It's the 1st of the month and that means that there is a new challenge over on my Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper challenge blog.

So this is my card for Craftyhazelnut's patterned paper challenge for June 2017 using lovely pastel papers from Hot off the press (I've had these for a long, long time). This was a commissioned card. I used a couple of delicate butterflies from Hobbycraft and the lovely pink sprig of leaves made up of beads (can't remember where I got it ... ages ago and knew it would come in handy one day). The little bird was from The Works and sentiment circle from Anna Griffin.

CHNC challenge extra for June

As it's the 1st of the month, it's time for CHNC challenge extra for June 2017. Please click on the link to find out all about it, see the lovely designs of my DT ... and I hope you will get out your Christmas stash and join in the challenge - we are now getting towards halfway through the year, so it makes sense to get on with Christmas designs now before it becomes a panic.

Bugaboo Stamps always generously sponsor my CHNC challenge extra and provide images for the team to use and showcase. The image I've used is cat topper Christmas, which is pre-coloured - I mounted on to a piece of red mirror card. The background card and washi tape were from The Works and the wooden snowflakes from Sainsbury's last Christmas time.

Penny's challenge 331

This is my design card for Penny's challenge 331, where the theme is 'anything goes'. Please click on the link to see the lovely designs by the rest of the team and we hope you will join in with your entries.

For my card I used the lovely Sasayaki glitter image 'Lucy in the rain', kindly supplied by them as sponsor of the challenge. All papers used were from my offcuts box. The main ones are much more shiny and 'blingy' than they look in the photo. The image and the mat were cut with Spellbinder's marvelous squares dies. I used a Kanban sentiment panel, small black gems from Poundland and flowers from Hobbycraft.
