Catch up...

Good morning. Today I have a couple of cards to share. I was too ill last week to blog them, but thankfully I'm almost back to normal now.

Colo{u}r Me Creative's new challenge started on Friday night and we would love to see you create a Black & White OR Sepia project with a pop of one other colour.

Be sure to link up over on the CMC Copic Challenge for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate from Susana's Custom Art & Card Design.  Each challenge entry is entered into a monthly drawing for a $50 gift certificate to Oozak.com.  You have until Sept. 30th to enter. Remember this is a copic marker challenge so you MUST use your copics.

I used one of the new stamps from Tickled Pink Stamps and I've also used this card for my Tickled Pink DT card - yes, very naughty but I was ill, remember?! ;) The challenge set for us this week was to RIP something. You can interpret this as actually ripping something like your cardboard, paper, image etc. etc OR you can interpret this as R.I.P something. You must use an image from the Tickled Pink Stamps Line on your project to enter!!

Challenges - 

Card Cupids - Anything Goes

Gingerloft -  Vintage or Distressed

Here Come the Boys -Bingo* (Twine, Image, Squares)

 Scrappy Frogs -  Vintage

 

*******************************

My next card is for Basic Grey Challenges and we would love to see you use Pink & Brown on your projects. 

Of course I jumped right in as this is one of my favourite colour combos and when I was half way through I realised I was using My Mind's Eye papers so I had to dig into my stash and found some Basic Grey Sugared Rub-Ons that suited perfectly. . phew!!
