I can't believe that October is nearly over and Christmas is almost here! I have a card to share for the Altenew October inspiration challenge.

Thanks for dropping in!

The first one is for the current Fusion Card Challenge - Pastel Holloween. Thank you for the Honourable Mention in the last challenge! Thank you for dropping by!

WCMD Challenge 2018-1

I had a busy weekend for World Card Making Day. I managed to squeeze in a couple of cards. This one is for a 60th Wedding celebration. I decided to use my newly acquired Simon Says Stamp October kit stamp for the background image of an A5 sized card. I then stamped the sentiment and die cut out the numbers. I used several coats of clear embossing powder to create a lovely finish on the numbers. I'd also layered the numbers on a stack of gold cardstock. Happy WCMD!!

Challenges:
Winnie and Walter WCMD 2018 - Dress up your Die Cuts Challenge with Gayatri
Winnie and Walter WCMD 2018 - Number Cruncher with Keren

Materials:
Stamps - Simon Says Stamp and Winnie and Walter

Rose Filament Birthday

I have another card to share. I used the Altenew Rose Filament dies and traced the outlines onto watercolour card stock. I loosely coloured them with the Altenew Pan set and then diecut the shapes. Then the fun part, arranging them in the background of the card and then die cutting the rectangle shape. Some sentiments added and it was done! I'm adding this to Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes.

Materials
Dies - Altenew Rose Filament, Winnie and Walter and Lil Inkers
Stamp - Altenew

Kaisercraft Baby Love

I have a couple of baby cards to share. Two of my friends had baby girls within two weeks of each other. Since trying to organise my Craft Room on the weekend, I came to the realisation that I am hoarding too much patterned paper pads. I love going to the local Kaisercraft store and buying discounted paper pads and Collectables! So I thought I better start using them! The first card below is for Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes and the second card is based on the current Fusion Card Challenge Baby Shower sketch. Oh, guess what? No stamps were harmed during the making of these cards! Thanks for dropping by!
