I Fancy Mirrored Monotone.

Good Morning, a bit of an early start for me today, I just couldn't sleep. I ended up getting up after laying there for ages, my mind working overtime on things that I need to achieve over he next few days both at home and at work.
 So I decided to get up, catch up on some comments and then suddenly remembered that I hadn't made this post.



As this week saw the last challenge of the year for Southern Girls, I thought I'd join team Trace in there challenge 
even though it was really a bit of what my daughter fancied, being a name card for her friend's birthday.
So, if you fancy joining us this month, there are some great sponsors as always and we would love to see your creations!




I'm using this card for the Challenge:-
Keep On Crafting, Anything goes.

Thanks for stopping by,

Lavinia Expects Some Snow!

It's time for the new challenge at Lavinia today, and the theme this time is 

I got out my masking fluid, flicked it over my card and waited for it to dry. I then stamped my Spring trees, dobbing some masking fluid over the edges of branches to look like snow was settling.(Dobbing really is a technical term ;)) After the fluid had dried, I inked my background before rubbing off the now rubbery fluid, leaving the white of the cardstock showing through. The sentiment is from seasonal words set. 



The masking fluid came out again for my second card.I stamped my background using various trees and added snowflakes to my card base before adding my fussy cut cat to my window frame.



A sprinkling of glitter was added to both cards!


I'm using these cards for the following challenges:-
CSD, Winter,
CCC101, Cold Outside,
CM, Embossing,
HJCC, Embossing.
