The lovely Kathy set the challenge on the CMLI group on Craftbubble,. It was a sketch using a DL card and 'white space'....oh no!! I embraced it fully and even did two cards, YAY ME!!

The first card was coloured using cosmic shimmers as paint which was a technique I have never tried before (I bought them this weekend!)

As I was supposed to have white space I put the sentiment on the inside

I will be entering this card into the following challenges;

Creative Inspirations - plain and simple
Crafts and Me - things with wings
Corrosive Challenges - magical creatures


Here is my second card

Christmas recipe club #2

 *2nd post of today - please scroll down*

Clare set the recipe for this fortnight's challenge, which was ; 
- as white as a ghost
- a touch of Christmas colours
- a present
- a knot or bow

I knew the perfect stamp and a way to to get a touch of Christmas colours....paper piecing! The gifts are paper pieced with some scraps i had lying around!

 I am also entering this into I Love Promarkers Challenge and the Alphabet Challenge blog which is paper piecing.
