Cutie Sunday #41

This is the wonderful sketch over at Cutie Sunday for this week. As always, I'm running late making and sending cards out, so this is a very quick card that I made. After I stuck down the image I realised that I didn't put the band on the card across the middle DOH! Oh well, I like the way it's turned out. I'm going to try and do some simple cards for a while as I'm enjoying the white space.

Cardstock/paper: BasicGrey euphoria

Stamp: Demure from Sugar Nellie available at Funky Kits and sentiment stamp from Inkadinkado

Ink: Versafine onxy black and imperial purple

Thanks for looking.

Friday Sketchers #49

I went to visit my parents last week in the UK and now that I'm back home I've realised I haven't made or posted any birthday cards, so if any of you are reading this, I'm really sorry and the cards will be in the post very shortly. This card that I made for Friday Sketchers is a belated birthday card (I think I should just make belated ones 'cause I always forget, no matter how many times and how many different lists I make!!!)




It's another great sketch over on Friday Sketchers.

As it was our anniversary on 23rd - four years married, and I haven't got a clue where the time has gone, I thought I'd better make a card for himself. I played along with Stamp with Fun as they have a fabby sketch. I did make the card in time for the day, but I forgot to put it on here DOH!
