Mid month inspiration for CHNC challenge extra for April

This is my card for mid month CHNC challenge extra for April - please click on the link to see designs by others in the team. I've just realised that this is very similar to the card I showed for CHNC challenge extra for March ... nevermind!

I've used Bugaboo AKV Nativity - Mary Joseph which I coloured digitally in Microsoft Paint. The background papers are Hunkydory and My Mind's eye - both being from my Christmas offcuts box.

The cheerful stamp pad challenge 84: 3 different patterned papers

This is my design card for the Cheerful stamp pad challenge 84: use 3 different papers. Please click on the link to see the other lovely designs by the team. The winner for this fortnight will be our guest designer for two weeks.

I based my card on the sketch given for Freshly made sketches 131:

I used three different design papers from my offcuts box (always trying to use some up) - I also matted the embossed panel on to a piece of patterned card, but that's so minimal that I haven't counted that in my three papers! I inked the Papermania Easter stamp with stazon cactus green and added a few daises - there are little embossed flowers on the panel, but I thought it would be good to have daisies to match the ones added to the sentiment stamp.

I'm also showing this as another example on my own Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper April challenge - if you haven't discovered this yet, please click on the link and join in ... you just need to use some of your hoarded patterned papers to cover your card or other creation.
