I so love these challenges where I can do more then one. I have had this little Anya coloured in for a few day's, but not enough time to make a card. So tonight I have found some time and finished her off.
The first challenge is the Curtain Call Colour challenge. These are defiently colours that I would never put together. Which is why they call it a challenge. I went with a flower theme to go with the garden green.
The other challenge was the Anyone for Anya Challenge. I must say I have a few Anya's myself, but once again I used one that I stamped off at Stamp Camp. Thanks again Debbie. I have to admit that this card took me forever to put together. But at least it is finished.
Sorry I need to apologies again for the blurry photo. It's 11.30pm and not alot of natural light. Thanks for looking

Anyone for Anya Sketch Challenge #6
I have had this little girl stamped off since our Stamp Camp last Aug, thanks to the lovely Debbie. I only had the one so I didn't want to use it just in case I mucked it up some how. But for some reason I went straight to it when I saw this challenge. This card was made for the Anyone for Anya Sketch Challenge #6. I must say that this is totally out of my colour zone. It was the first time the summer sun marker was used.
I have used Summer Sun, Real Red and Basic Black with white. I did a little fan and some little origami paper folding in the corner. I used an old hostess stamp So Many Sayings for my WISH. Thanks for looking.

Ballet Babe
I have had these photo's in mind for a page for so long and finally got the chance to sort it out. Another craft evening at Leonie was all I needed for this baby to come together. I say that, because after the initial layout, I couldn't think of anything else. Which is why it is so great to stamp with friends because when you can't think of anything they can. Most of the time anyway. LOL.
This is a photo of my baby girl Tara before her dancing concert. All products are SU except for the ballet shoes, but I love them any way. I'm being a bit slack and have taken a photo while it is in the album, but this is because the little ballet shoes are getting wrecked every time I try to move it. So sorry that it's a bit shiny.
This year the Tara will be doing tap dancing, so Leonie has already come up with next years page title. Tapping Tara.

Makeesha Byl Challenge 17
Wow it's been a while since i have been doing some blogging. My clever son thought he would download so much over the internet that it is a pain to try and access it. But the fact that it is nearly midnight has ment that it's not to bad. It's only taking about 3 min to go from page to page. Way to slow for my liking.
Anyway I made this card a couple of day's ago and thought that I would try and put it on my blog. It is for Makeesha Byl Challenge.
Here is my card. I really love the Great Friend set and am always happy to use it.
Please excuse the greyness of photo's. It's really at midnight. Thanks for looking.

Look at me go. Two challenges in one. Yeah
So I was doing my usual look at what people are making and not making anything myself when I came across these two challenges that I thought "Hey they go together". So I stopped bloggin and started stampin.
The first challenge is from the lovely Kylie Jo. The challenge is to make a card using only soft subltes and neutrals. Check out her blog here and have a go.
The next is from the talented ladies at Anyone For Anya. There challenge was to use Black+White with one other colour.
So this is the card I came up with. I embossed with Baroque Motifs in black and the butterfly in white. I love this new butterfly punch. I can so see it getting used quite a lot. I used my ink pads and aqua painter to colour in my Anya. No sentiment yet as i'm not sure what I will use card for. Crystal effects on her boots and buttons just to finish it off.
Thanks for looking.
