A bit more time to craft EXTRA February challenge

This is my design card for A bit more time to craft EXTRA February challenge: anything goes. Please click on the link to see the lovely designs of the rest of the team and we hope you will join in our challenge.

For my card I used one of Lozzy's thistle papers - you can see Lozzy's lovely papers here - so many delightful papers - and you have the chance to win some by entering the challenge.

I added a 'twinchie' that I made some years ago (took part in a swap and kept one for myself), using the beautiful Hero Arts gracious lady stamp. The tag was from another swap years ago, when I made one to keep for myself, using various elements including the embossed swirls and spots. I've added some gorgeous flowers that I received from Lozzy some time back.

Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper February 2018 challenge

This is my design card for my Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper February 2018 challenge - please click on the link to see the inspirational designs by my team and we hope you will join in our challenge using some patterned paper.

This 8" x 8" card was made using papers from Sara Davies' Love & romance 6" x 6" paper pad. I used six different papers from this pad - lots of fussy cutting and matting and layering - cutting/sticking individual flowers as well as different papers. The prize for Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper February 2018 is one of these paper pads.
