A couple of cards to share

Afternoon, my dear friends, this week I made a couple of cards that were NOT for DT work, yipee, so must be catching up...Today is Brian's birthday, he is golfing at the minute, but I am going to take him out for tea, then maybe take in a Movie...would like to see Lincoln but not sure if it is still on...we will see..will let you know tomorrow.


So onto the cards:- The 1st one is for Lacy Sunshine,  CH2 Favourite Colour Combo, if I am honest I have a few favourites, but felt that after the long winter months, we needed something cheery, so I have went with Pink/Lime Green, they are zesty and cheer me up...I have used on of the images that were in the $1 sale called Blossom Lineart, I am never sure if I was a Goth or a Gypsy in my former life, LOL, but this image appealed to me somewhat and she was great fun to colour, hope you agree that the Pink/Lime Green combo, suits her.... I am going to enter this card into a couple of other challenges...Whoopsi Daisy - Make it Girly, and Oldie But a Goodie Challenge - Bright Colours (where you have to use something, you have had for at least 6 months and say what, well it is the papers, that were free in a Magazine, I know not, when, but I did use some off them for an Easter Card, last year)...


The 2nd card is entered into Sugary Sunday WK54 - on Facebook - where there was a colour combo to follow, I have used Daisy, whom, I just love.  I am entering her into the Sugar Bowl - 100 Challenge, Anything Goes with a Sugar Nellie image, also entering her into One Stitch at a Time - CH151 - Make it Girly....

Have a wonderful Saturday all, many thanks for stopping by and join me tomorrow for the new challenge at Glitter N Sparkle....love and hugs to ALL xxxxx

absolutely stunning - both of them.

seems like the european girls prefer 5x5 or 6x6 cards. us USA girls are hoarders - not to mention postage is a bitch!

have a great weekend.

hugs :)

Both gorgeous cards Avril, but I've got my DT hat on so I'm more interested in the top one...which is fabulous! Love the colours you've chosen and you've coloured and displayed the digi perfectly.

Thanks for joining us over at the Lacy Sunshine Challenge. Good luck.
