CRAFTY TIME CHALLENGE - JULY - PUNCHES/DIES - MID-MONTH REMINDER


Hello out there - sorry no pic of my pressy from my blog friend but the maestro is still on holiday ooops at work and I'd forgotten I'd made a card for the mid month reminder on our Crafty Time Challenge.  Just to remind you, the theme is to use Punches and/or dies.   Such a difficult task for me I must say!  When you see the pic of my pressy and what has been said about it, you will know that I am talking warbles......again!

I love this little girl on the stool with her odd socks - bet she's got another pair like that in the drawer!  Soooooorrry!  Our theme is open for another two weeks, so why not have a go.  I'm sure you have one or three dies up your sleeves which you are longing to use again!!

Ingredients
7" x 7" White card blank - Anna Marie Designs
Digi from Sherri Baldy (sorry don't know the title, it wasn't with the digi)
Paper - 'Hugs with Henry' - free with a magazine
Elegant Oval Layering Die Set - Tonic Dies
French Collection Border and Tag dies - Creative Expressions by Sue Wilson
Graph'it Markers
Cream card from stash
Flowers, buttons from stash
Leaves - WOC
Stamens - Brenda's Lace and Ribbons

In case you are wondering where the tag is - I cut it in half and used it at the top and bottom of the oval die cut!  I've made this as a birthday card for a little friend so will pop a sentiment on it very very soon!

I do hope you like my card and have the time to leave a word or two!  I'd also lurve to see your cards on our challenge blog, there's three chances of winning a prize from our sponsor!



Lots of big hugs to you all and please take care of yourselves.

Love    Sue xxx

  4. Hi Sue me wonderful blogging mate.
    gorgeous creation yet again, and I too love that super image she is sooooooooo! cute with those odd socks on.
    Superb colouring as usual, and a very wonderful design.
    Now I think we can all aspire to the wearing of odd socks at sometime or the other, and some peeps do it because they like too.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
