Stamp with Us Colour Challenge

Hi - I know I have been a very bad blogger wish I could say I had been enjoying the summer but someone stole the Sun!!! We are on Grandparent Duties next week really looking forward to it and hope to go to the seaside, Please return the sun; with this in mind I will not be blogging will be too busy running after a lively 41/2 year old and sleeping when I can LOL :-()

Had some me time last night so thought I would join this weeks Colour Challenge over on Stamp with Us. Here is my creation simple I know but my mojo's gone on holiday- hope I get a postcard.lol. I have left one chipboard shape natural and coloured one with Ruby red Ink Pad before adding felt flower with brad.

Oooops forgot the receipe:

Birthdays Galore continued

Pheweeee how hot has it been this week, between watching Wimbledon and the heat no projects completed for me my hands were so hot I was leaving marks on the card - not a look I wanted lol ;-( Moving quickly on;
This morning was a lot cooler so I got cracking. I am still on my quest; Birthday cards just a Little bit different from the norm; I have several 60th Birthdays coming up (not Me!) so I have used this weeks sketch challenge over on StampwithUs for one of the 60th Birthday cards and made the opening gatefold, added a bit of bling (dazzling diamonds) and have kept to just two colours. Hope you like my take on this weeks sketch. I have used Certainly Celery for a clean fresh look. Stazon was used to stamp Happy Birthday onto the ribbon and I frayed two ends, 60 was cut from DSP on my Big Shot and I glued this to heavy card mounted with dimensionals.
