All Challenged Out!!!!............



Over on the Just Bex forum there have been some great challenges released so I have been busy trying to complete as many as possible in 24 hours!!
The first card had to have a sentiment stamped on it so i used a little round Birthday stamp and mounted on a brad in the middle of a bloom. This card also ties in with the Daring Cardmakers dare this week to make a card with beads on it. I have sewn 3 pearl beads on the ribbon.
The next challenge was to use a paper rose bud. I didn't think I had any of these left but found a few red ones in the bottom of a box. These were one of the first things I ever bought for cardmaking and I have long since stopped using them!
Next one was to use a bloom.




This one was to use flower punches or die cuts

This one to make a card using die cuts.
Theses challenges are such fun, and I have managed to build my stock up quite a bit now.
I have a couple more to complete.

Gorgeous cards. I lvoe them all.
I have found there are just too many great challenges, but not enough time. I work full time & I am exhausted. So Im taking a backseat from a lot of sketches for some well earned rest.

Good Heavens Woman! You have been so busy, and what a fantastic array of cards you've made.

Love the pearl beads on the ribbon for the DCM - what a good idea, they really make that ribbon look special

You're more energetic than me Sarah - my challenge contributions are coming it at a 'plodding' pace where you're galloping ahead. No compromise on quality though- these are all looking just fantastic! Love the pearl beads on the DCM dare one (and you already know I love that stamp!) and your paper rosebud card turned out beautifull, you've made them look very stylish.
