Basic Grey Week 19 - Photo Inspiration......


Good morning folks!
It's that time again...... another Basic Grey Challenge and we have a gorgeous picture for you to use as inspiration this week..... isn't it sweet? There's so much to draw from...... colours, shapes, accessories, patterns..... I'm really looking forward to seeing what you come up with!


I was drawn to that fab bunting in the picture and so that became a major feature of my card. Now it isn't very often I struggle to use Basic Grey papers but I have to admit I haven't felt inclined to dip into the Boxer collection very much.... until now that is..... the papers were perfect for my bunting! The background papers are from the Recess collection which just goes to show once again how easy it is to mix and match the ranges.


The sweet image I used is a Peachy Keen stamp and you can get hold of them here. I thought it was the perfect image to tie in with the theme of a child's room and in fact this card is being sent to my friend's little girl who has just gone into hospital to have her tonsils removed..... not nice at the age of 4!!!

Well I do hope you can join in with the challenge this week as Simon Says are very generously sponsoring us once again...... and whatever you're up to over the Bank Holiday weekend, hope you have lots of fun ;o)

Vacation Time.........


Helloooooooooo!

Hope you are enjoying today's sunshine, isn't it just perfect?!
My card today is for the latest Quixotic Challenge where the theme is 'Make A Splash'! The girls have created some awesome cards again this week ;o) I decided that this Peachy Keen stamp would be perfect, she's such a lot of fun! Do you remember wearing this type of swimming cap in the seventies? I do unfortunately and had a yellow flowery one as a child!!!

I used some gorgeous MME papers on this card and Bazzill 'Just The Edge' wave strips. I hope you can also pick up from the close-up that I glossed the swimming girl's armbands and flippers too!

Well thank you for stopping by once again and enjoy the rest of your day ;o)
