Birthday Card

Whoa ho, it is Friday and I should be getting ready to go out as it is my friends birthday today and we are going for a drink. I don't know about you but doesn't time seem to be just flying at the moment, "almost Christmas" is all I keep hearing but I can't even think about that until I get back from Malta in November. Well I had to take a break from all the Christmas cards I have been making lately and get a birthday card done for Kezia who will be 7 next week. The little image I have used is another Daisy May and can be found on Sheet 83 here and all the papers are from Shabby Princess. She is a real girly girly and is so into Pink and Lilac (aren't we all) so this card will suit her to a tee. I am also entering this into the challenge going on over at Polkadoodles where you had to follow a sketch.
Well must run or I will never make it.

3 Challenges in 1. . . . Yippee



Morning everyone. Here is my card for the Polkadoodle challenge where you had to follow a sketch, I find it so good to do these sketches as it really helps if you are lacking inspiration (and let's face it we all know what that is like, well I do anyway).
I was also able to combine it with the Just Magnolia Challenge as I have used this beautiful Tilda from the new butterfly collection that a lovely friend of mine lent me. The challenge here was not only to use a Magnolia stamp but to include somewhere on your card an insect or animal. Well I chose the butterfly off the Cricut Storybook cartridge.
My third entry is into the Cute Daisy May challenge where the challenge this week was to emboss. I struggled a little with this as it was hard to see the embossing on all the brightly coloured cardstock so I decided to bring Black into my design which then showed the embossing up lovely. I have used the cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder (have I told you that I love this one).
Well must go as work awaits but have a lovely day in the sunshine again.
