What a morning! I'm lucky if I get a couple of hours to myself on a saturday morning so when I do I like to try and make a couple of cards. This mornings efforts are a complete disaster!!! My Lili of the valley challenge, peaches and cream card has gone in the bin. . . .twice!! This one was my 3rd attempt at a card for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Case it Card by Domi.
Sometimes you get an idea in your head for a card and it just won't work but you can't get rid of the idea??!! Well that's what happened. I started by drawing around a plate to get a large circle but it looked like my 4 year old had cut it out. . . . .so it got smaller!! This meant my new rubber stamp was too big so I've gone back to the good old 'gift hedgy'.
I think this challenge is turning into, 'How many different cards I can make with the one rubber stamp!' I coloured the little hedgy with promarkers and cut him out.
I have absolutely no idea where the background papers are from, they were scraps from my box. I've used a martha stewart border punch and joy!crafts die for the flowers.
I don't know if I'll get back in my craft room to sort out the LOTV card this weekend, it might be good to leave it alone for a while.lol!!
I've promised my daughter we would bake cakes this afternoon so I'm off to make a mess in my kitchen!
Thank you for taking the time to stop by and for any comments you might like to leave.
Have a fab weekend

This is beautiful Lorraine. Love the colours and love the image. I sympathise with the LOTV card - I made 4 before I gave up and posted the last one I made because I didn't have it in me to make another!!! Peaches and cream was my idea - what kind of numpty am I? Big hugs and good luck with the LOTV card, Jayne xx
