In the pink and cupcake challenge

At In the Pink, they want something new

The card I've made is from scraps someone gave me, but the papers are "new"  to me.
The fine ribbon was a new reel I had.
The pink gingham patterned paper is from Heidi Swapp and was bought new earlier this month.

I've chosen not to add a sentiment but it will go into my "Love" box for Valentines Day, Engagements, weddings etc.
                                                           ***********************
While we are on Valentines Day I made a card for it using pearls as the feature.


It is for Cupcake Inspirations challenge.
Once again I fussy cut around one of those flowers.
The XOXOXO means "kiss, hug", so again I didn't use a sentiment

Counterfeit Kit challenge blog hop

Welcome to the Members blog hop.


Challenge #1 was to use a door on your layout.
I've constructed my own door from a fancy frame printed on one of my papers.
I used Scrapmatts Federation corners to finish off the frame and make it more doorlike.
To make the door way I have cut around the inside paper using a sharp knife then used a large brown brad for my handle.
I decided to make it a puzzle layout
 
and behind the door is a federation house with matching lacework.
 
Here's the order of the blog hop.

The male room

http://themaleroomchallengeblog.blogspot.com.au/ has a washi tape challenge.
So, using the same range of papers as the previous challenges I made a bright card for a small boy using orange washi tape.

2 card challenges

The sketch at Mojo Monday prompted me to make this card but I'm also entering it on
Naughty or nice where they want us to celebrate something new or use something new.
In this case, it is a bright card for two boys or twins.
The papers were given to me at Scrapbooking group on Saturday, so they are new to me.

 
and the sketch

Cute card Thursday and Delft

http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com.au/ has a challenge to use cool colours.

Though this is not a card it is the only challenge I can find to suit this penultimate layout I've made using my Counterfeit kit.

Jot Magazine challenge

Jot Magazine has a challenge for January. Here's the mood board.
 
I have taken inspiration from the bed with the floral bedspread. Plus the anchor and the white bathroom. I used white card as my background.
 
I fussy cut around the flowers on the Heidi Swapp Mixed company paper in my kit.
I used royal blue hand stitching and a denim washed striped paper in my layering.
The tag saying Love life was also in my Counterfeit Kit.
 
The remainder including the fabric owl are extras.
