Papertake weekly challenge

Whats this another challenge ?? I really must calm down that's two in a week. LOL. I love the challenges on the papertake blog and have been itching to have a go. So here is the card I made for their challenge of 'buttons'. I bought these mini cards a while ago and thought they would be a great size for a note card or Thank you. Being as they are smaller than the normal cards I use I thought a simple layout would work best and must say I'm really pleased with it.

The stamp is from the pink cat studio tweet plate. The sentiment is pinched, or as I prefer recycled, from a card that was sent to me, I only tried it by chance but I think it really works,and I coloured the bags and the flower with glitter gel pens to add a touch of sparkle. Hope you all like it and can I say thank you to all the people who left messages on my previous post you made me feel very welcome in this crafty world!!

Sketch Saturday Challenge

Woo Hoo...... I finally managed to do a challenge and here it is. I chose the challenge on the Sketch Saturday blog. Normally I don't get chance to do them on time, so I waited until Jack was tucked up fast asleep in bed and got started. Once I found a spark of inspiration the sketch was really fun to do.

I used a stamp from pink cat studio and papers from paper mania. the ribbon and flowers were left overs from my stash. Hope you like it
