Noel



The lovely folk over at Just for Fun are asking us this week to make something using our  'Favourite Colour'. Its ages since I was able to get something made for these challenges. 
Well at the moment I can certainly say mine is shades of Brown and Tea dye distress ink comes high on the list.
These cards were both made with a variety of papers including the new Mechanica from Kanban.
The  images, are ones I got from Siobhan at the Craft Retreat when she kindly lent me the stamps to use. Sorry I don't remember the makers.



This second card may fit the new theme at Sugar Creek Hollow which is  'Dots and Stripes'.
My stripes are made with small strips of scrap paper. paper.
All the trimmings are from my bits box.

Thankyou for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments.
