Bombshell - August Sketch Challenge

I made this card for this month's bombshell sketch challenge I absolutely LOVED this sketch, I used one of my new Bombshells which I coloured using watercolour pencils and distress ink, the little compass embellishments are also from the same set that I stamped using different coloured distress inks then added tiny brads to the centres, the sentiment 'homeward bound' is also from this fab stamp set. The papers are K&Co. and the satin ribbon I found in my stash.

Bunny Zoeys - Vintage

Hope everyone is well in Blogland, I made this card for the Bunny Zoey's monthly challenge, this month the challenge is Vintage, which i think this card fits perfectly, the papers and embellishments (butterfly and birdcage) are K&Co. This cute image is by sugar nellie that I watercoloured, I then distress around the edge of my image using sir tim holtz distress ink. The flower I made using again sir tims gorgeous tattered florals and old dictionary paper with a button for the centre.

Quixotic Challenges - Life a Beach

This months challenge at quixotic is to make a card with either the beach or underwater in mind. I went for the beach option, I think my Ian looks like hes on his way to bum it out on the beach. The embellishment is actually a clothing tag by sol cal and I thought it fit in with the theme, I love recycling stuff hehehehehe The paper are papermania, theres not really much else to say about my card, the prize this month is a £15 voucher to spend at Elaines lovely shop.

On another note I had a brilliant weekend at Sonisphere festival the bands were amazing and I cant even tell you how good Iron Maiden were, its the 2nd time ive been to see them and we managed to get right at the front (with 55,000 people behind us !!!!) the atmoshpere was brilliant. I wanted to share a couple of pictures with you of my weekend but there on my other camera which I left at home doh !!!! hehehehe Ill add some piccies to my next post xxxx
