Inkspirations Colour Challenge # 12…..

I thought I would have another go at one of Makeesha's challenges.
Below are the colour's to use..


Here is my entry!


Recipe is as follows:
Stamps: Boho backgrounds and wow flowers
Paper: Real red, So Saffron and Whisper white
Ink: Real red and Regal rose with versamark used on the background.
Punchs:Scallop square and eyelet border
Ribbon: Real red grosgrain.
Brads: designer brads - so saffron from the spring mini catalogue.
Oh and a dusting of Real red chalk around the punched whisper white..

I have had my expert assessor have a look, she's so happy with it - I think she is going to use it on Friday for her last day at prac. To say thanks to all the teachers that have been helping her over the last 9 weeks.

Please let me know what you think - I am quite happy with the end result.

Have a great night.

Hugs

My first workshop/class

My thanks to my friend Annette, Sandra, Jenny and her friend.. (and to Neil who went shopping and left us girls to it!)

We had a great time and apologies for the blinding flash/glare in the mirror...

It was a hoot and I will be wanting to do this again soon..

As you can see we made quite a mess, but geez did we have some laughs.. especially when the demonstrator got her own card a bit out of whack!! But then isnt that just having a creative moment.. ha ha..

Ok, I'm off... have a great night

Some new cards

I have had some time to be creative and have put together these..

I hope you like them.





Take care

My beautiful Girls

Hi,
I thought I would share a mum's moment with you all and show you how beautiful my girls are! This was at their birthday dinner and I love them heaps.
They are both clever, intelligent, beautiful, smart, wonderful, caring, women and I am so proud of them both.



Aren't I the lucky mum...

Its all over

Well, the birthday (s) are over... I feel exhausted!
We had a lovely night at the Burswood - with dinner at the Atrium restaurant... Did someone mention that PINK was playing at the dome.. OMG!! there were people everywhere!

So anyways - I am back at work (sigh sigh).. and I have a workshop booked for sunday..

I thought I would show you what I made my daughters instead of the usual stock standard key!

I hope you enjoy them!



Most of the gear I used is available through Stampin Up, except for the paint and the chipboard pieces.. I had a lot of fun making these, as the girls chose their paper and then all I had to do was match the paint and ribbon. Between their name and messages I placed some card which everyone at their dinner signed and wrote lovely messages.

Have a great night.. I will post after this weeks workshop and you can have a look at what we made.

Bye for now.
