Christmas Challenges

Tonight I am participating a cyber stamping challenge over at the INKlings. Kylie is setting some challenges around Christmas. The first challenge was to make a pocket card (using dimensions found at Splitcoast Stampers). Here is my card. I have used Happy Christmas, Mate and used my Watercolour Wonder Crayons to get a colourful image. Here is the second card I made tonight from a sketch found at http://tayloredexpressions.blogspot.com/2008/07/taylored-expressions-cupcake-challenge_11.html I have made my own background as I did not pack any Designer Series Paper! (Picture me hitting my head).

Lovely cards, Margaret! The kangaroo one is soooo cool (are you going to make lots for your Chinese friends?) It was really great that you could make Kylie's Cyberchallenge - we sure can get connected throught the Internet, can't we? Looking forward to the one that you are hosting in December!

January Cyberchallenge - punched flowers.

Images:(c)1990-2010 Stampin'Up(r) Artwork:Margaret L Crawford Our INKlings cyberchallenges have began for 2010. Tonight our leader, Jayne is setting the challenges. Our first challenge is to use SU punches to make a paper flower and use it on a card, scrapbook page or 3D item. I have used the round scallop punch (each flower has 3 punched scallops), cut a small way into each scallop and then pushed back to create a 3-D effect then I added a rhinestone brad to the centre of each flower. I used my markers to colour the leaves and then spritzed with water before adding to card. Challenge 1 completed.

Here is another layout I have created recently.  I have decided to post it for a challenge at ARTastic - I hope they allow more than one entry as I have already done one layout for their May challenge - Scrap the Girls. This photo was taken when I met up with friends that I attended TAFE with many years ago.  We completed the Advanced Needlecraft Certificate at Hornsby TAFE and became firm friends during this time.   But as life goes on we lost contact - until Facebook got us back together 20 years later!..  They caught the train up and we had lunch and much catch up at my home before a walk on the beach.   Again here is the inspiration photo at ARTastic, the criteria Girls Only. I was further inspired by a layout by Emily Pitt found on   Debbie Hodge  from 2013 that I found whilst blog surfing. Thank you Debbie I have left some thanks for you on your blog. Thank you for looking, Margaret.
