Patterned Paper

I'm a tad behind with posting my Team Lou card for Southern Girls this time the theme is 

Patterned Paper! 

I'm more of a CAS kind of girl and seem to have got in the habit of avoiding papers completely, I have pies of them stockpiled, some real beauties, I get them out, stroke them, shuffle them for ages trying to decide on combinations for my cards the abandon them, which was pretty much how I started with this DT project. 

I bought some lovely lined paper pads from Paperchase a while back, and decided to print my image directly onto it, opting for a heavier outline to the Ppinky Dolls image, they are one of the sponsors this time, please check out the challenge page for full details of other sponsors this time.

Still couldn't decide on pattered paper and found myself punching flowers from my scraps, that's when I decided to just cover one of my note books, it doesn't look so good here but in reality it's rather lovely!

I'm using this notebook for the following challenges:-

CGC67, Die cuts or punches,

FBD, Flowers,

TCA13, Anything goes Girly.

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 

"A Bit Of What You Fancy"

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.

Rocking The Stripes.

I'm feeling mighty guilty, we had internet troubles last weekend and I forgot to check the date of team Lou's challenge, how bad am I, I'm almost a week late with giving it a mention and I completely missed adding my card.

So just to let you know, the theme for the Southern Girl's present challenge is 

"Stripes"

As usual there are some great sponsors this month, check out the challenge blog for full details.

I'm using this card for the following challenge:-

CCC, No stamps,

SPC16, Anything goes.

Southern Girls Go Cute, Fun And Whimsical

It's just a shame that I didn't quite follow instruction.

My image is rather cute though, it's by Zuri, one of the challenge sponsors this time, they also have a sale on at the moment if you fancy treating yourself to Chise or any of the other cute digi images available.

Please check out the Challenge blog for full details of all of the sponsors this time.

This is the first time in a while that I've got out my Copics, I really enjoyed colouring her, I even did a little fussy cutting of the legs, allowing me to do a bit of Out of the box die cutting, not done this in a while either.

I also did a bit of patchwork with my punched flower adding some inky blanket stitching to tie in with the lovely design paper.

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

FBD, 3 or more papers,

GCC24, Fantasy,

House Of Cards, Stitch it up.
