For You

My card today is a lot brighter than I would normally do, but the person it is for is a very jolly person who loves Pink so I think she will like it.  I am using this gorgeous Mo Manning Digi stamp 'For You' and have coloured it with Promarkers.


I have followed the sketch from the Sweet Stampin' Challenge Blog.  They are celebrating their birthday this week with a blog hop and lots of lovely prizes.  The papers I have used are Zoe Pearn and were free in Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine.  The ribbons are from Imag-e-nation and the flowers are from Home Bargains.

I am also entering my card into these challenges:

Ice Skating Mimi

Blimey my card today seems to have taken all day to make.  Not because it was particularly hard but because of the light.  One minute it was too dark and I had to turn the lights on then the next the sun was shining and blinding me.  It's another Christmas card I'm afraid, and another for quite a few challenges.  The first challenge is A Gem of a Challenge which this week is a lovely sketch.
I have used the gorgeous stamp 'Ice Skating Mmi' and coloured with Promarkers.  The papers and sentiment are from Zoe Pearn again.  Sizzix snowflakes and gems, glamour dust and B&M snow.

I am also entering this card into the following challenges:
Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - Sparkle and Shine
Lili of the Valley Challenge - Anything Goes
Winter Wonderland - Winter Sport
