Card Challenge - 4x4 Textured Papaer

Another Card Challenge - I picked up from 4x4 Friday
It is to be made using textured paper.
All paper was found in my stash. Card made from pastel A4 card. Charcoal and yellow matting - shimmer card. The gold textured paper is wrapping paper, and the corrugated card came from a Dollar Shop. The patterned paper used for the medallion and corners was a print out of a patchwork design I had collected when planning my Christmas presents.

I love making cards from bits and pieces I find in my stash.

Fairy Card - CPS Sketch #45

I found this challenge at Prairie Paper and Ink. I am sure one of my purple loving friends will enjoy this one.


I am sorry I cannot name the source for my things. The teabag folding medallion came from some tiles I printed out - with a little bit of bling in the centre. I got the fairy stamp from a closing down sale, and the rest of the paper just came from my stash - scrap booking left overs, shimmer card and so on.

Card Challenge

I am enjoying this idea of card challenges. This one comes from Card Positioning Systems
It is made it from a clip art image - the easter egg is layered into a 3D design, with some puffy paint embellishing. The braid is a vintage multi-coloured ricrac, and the the background papers were made on Paint Shop Pro.

Easter is early this year, and if the shops already have Hot Cross Buns, then I guess it is time to make some Easter cards.

Card Challanges

I have been noticing a number of Card Challenges available through blogs - and I decided to join in.

This one is from here


This one uses two copies of a stamp and embossing in reverse.

Tea Bag folding

I have been having a discussion with some people on tea bag folding. So I am putting some pictures up here so they can see what you can do in making tea bag folded cards.
