A few challenge cards!


Quick post tonight folks , made these cards earlier in the week just managed to get them on tonight...
First Colour Create Theme this week is Red, Brown and Cream
I made the backing paper by scrunching up a peice of 5x5 plain brown paper then i rubbed my ink pad over it then smoothed it out and ran it through my big shot to re shape it, This is a beautiful image given to me by my crafty friend Kirsten (thanks hun) and was a joy to colour..

This card is for this weeks Penny Black saturday Challenge this weeks theme was to use 3 shapes on your card I used a rectangle to mount my image on circle brads and triangle corner mounts....







Lastly this card is for this weeks House Mouse challenge which was a gate fold card.....I love the intricacy of these stamps so wanted to leave my card quite simple so just a bit of embossing and a few prima flowers and Ribbon...



Thanks for visiting xxx

All of these cards are stunning Emma. I particularly like the way you made the background paper in the first one - it looks almost like velvet or suede. Beautiful work. Thanks for joining the Colour Create Challenge.
