Definitely Purple!

Morning all.

I've been stalking The Other Fickle Pixie again and she's entering in to the Clear It Out Challenge.  It's my first time entering with them....Theme:  Colour-Purple Stash: Purple things.  I think I have it covered.  It's defnitely Purple and the purple ink is from my stash....does that count?

I'll give it a go:

I've used the Garden in Bloom Stampin' Up set with Concord Crush and Wisteria Wonder.  The butterflies just add a bit of contrast in Daffodil Delight.

I've used my sponger (new favourite item) and blended Pear Pizazz around the edges.  I finished it off with a bit of Glamour Dust and a sentiment from the versatile Endless Birthday wishes and.....boom!  Another flower card :-)

Hope you like it

I have a template and I'm not afraid to use it!

After Lee Ann's comment...I thought why not make multiples!  Thanks. Lee Ann!

So here's another beachy theme for Less Is More.

It's the Wetlands Stampin' Up set again, this time set in the sand dunes (done with a bit of masking).  I've added birds in the distance (from Inkilious) And the theme of the card is simply....ENJOY!

Enjoy your weekend, everyone!

Life's a Beach

Feeling like an early bird today.  Family is still in bed, the house is quiet so a quick bit of stampin' before the football and dancing madness begins!

I'm joining Less is More again this week.  Thanks for all the lovely comments last week on my One-Layer card.  It was a real boost!  Today I've used the Stampin' Up set Wetlands - well, I said I was feeling like an early bird :-)

Daffodil Delight and Tempting Turquoise give it the beachy feeling and I've added a greeting made from the Endless Birthday Wishes set (love it!!)

Right - let the weekend activities begin!  Off to get the kids up!"

Christmas in July

Evenin' All!

Another one for the Christmas stash!

I've just my mini sponger thingy (not sure what it's really called) and a shed-load of various blue inks from Stampin' Up with the White Christmas stamp set.  It's one of those sets that make building scenes really easy.  I threw in a Santa Claus for something for the bears to look at :-)

I'm happy with the result but it took a while to ink...not sure I'll be making many of these, but I think this set can sit on my desk for a while.  The options are endless :-)

I'm entering this in the following challenges:
