Bingo at MAWTT

 Good morning.  Today at MAWTT we are playing BINGO.

 

If you want to play along you need to use one line of the grid and that can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal. Please say on your post which line you are using.

My Card 

 

For my card I used the centre horizontal line and as you can see I used patterned paper, image - matching topper- and glitter which I actually mixed with flower soft to make the centres of the flowers. You can just about make out the glitter in the photo but in real life it is actually very effective. I used the papers and one of the toppers from The Paper Boutique set Evening Blooms. I love how subdued the colours are.

Why not pop over to the blog, check out the work from the DT and maybe you will be inspired to join in.

Take care and enjoy your day.

Animals/Birds at MAWTT

 Good morning.  I hope you have been enjoying the beautiful weather the past three days  if you live in the UK .  March did what it's supposed to do coming in like lion and going out like a lamb. 

We have another challenge for you today at MAWTT and it is to show birds or animals on your card.

My Card

 

I used a fox on a Christmas card which makes a nice change. The paper and topper are from the Paper Boutique's "A Whisper of Winter.". The pine cones are from John Next Door.

Why not pop across to the blog and see what my teamies have made for this challenge. 

I can't believe just  how quickly time is passing. The whole of lockdown seems to have gone by so  fast - although my brother disagrees with me on that point. If people behave themselves than we can continue to take steps in ending the lockdown slowly but surely, so fingers crossed.

Take care.

Deer at the Christmas Card Club

 Good morning every body and I hope you are all doing okay. I can scarcely believe that this the penultimate challenge for our little club in 2020. Considering this has been what Her Majesty once described as an Annus Horribilis I think it has actually flown by.  Gwen has chosen the theme which is deer.

My Card


This is a 6" square base card and although I really like the muted colours the photograph is not showing it at its best. The backing paper and topper are from the Paper Boutique's "Whisper of Winter" set. The pink card stock I used for the mat, the deer and the bauble is from Hobbycraft. The deer are from a John Next Door set and the bauble is Memory Box.

I am posting this a day early because I have a DT card to post tomorrow, so if you want to see the cards from the rest of the girls you will need to check on Sunday.

Well that's all from me. Take care!

Flowers and Butterflies at IAAS

Good morning.  A new challenge has been posted at IAAS and the challenge is to use flowers and butterflies on your card.  pretty easy huh?

My Card


Recipe
6" square base card
papers - Butterfly Ballet The Paper Boutique
Topper  - Butterfly Ballet as above
bird dies - the Works

This card started life as an ordinary square card but I realised after I had adhered the topper that it was upside down! I cut the back off the card and made into an easel card instead. I fussy cut the large butterfly and the roses on the base stopper from one of the papers in the pack and that was it. A very pretty card all courtesy of the Paper Boutique - and a little help from me.

I think this one might well "wing" it's way up to Co Durham to my sister.

Why not pop over to the blog and check out the super work from my team mates?

Take care and stay safe.

Things With Wings at MAWTT

Good morning.  I must admit to feeling thankful that the weather has turned a wee bit cooler.  Unfortunately I'm not on of those people who love to bake in the sun, and sleeping in this heat proves virtually impossible so with lack of sleep and feeling drained from the heat I have not exactly been firing on all cylinders.

Time for another challenge at MAWTT and the theme is "Things With Wings".  Now this doesn't have to be just butterflies and birds, although they certainly spring to mind first and foremost as I have proven with my card. You could choose fairies, planes, dragonflies etc.

My Card


Recipe
6" square white base card - Rymans
papers and topper - "Butterfly Ballet" from the Paper Boutique
raspberry card for matting - from stash
bird dies - The Works.

These papers and toppers from this set are so gorgeous the card almost made itself. The Paper Boutique really have such fabulous papers and I have a few different sets, including Christmas, so you will be seeing more.

Just a quick post today but why not pop over to the blog and see what my teamies have come up with for this challenge?

Take care.
