Challenge 23 - Balloons

I really have been a terrible blogger lately!!  I shall try to update my blog on a weekly basis from now on.

The challenge this week was Balloons and here's my card:

Made for my niece who turned 8. I used an Elzybells stamp and some punched balloons which I tried to make more 3D by folding in half and then sticking them together.

I just love the little stamped tape measure which was part of a free stamp set that came with Issue 31 of Simply Homemade. Yes, you need it!!

Challenge 20 - Nightlife

Or should I say Knightlife??!!

I used an Elzybells stamp and made my own fireworks using an embossing pen and various embossing powders.  I also used Stickles.

I hope they had a night to remember!

Challenge 19 - Bon Voyage

This weeks theme was Bon Voyage to a destination beginning with any letter in your name.  I chose America!  On my Bon Voyage card I've used an Elzybells stamp and I've plotted and marked her planned route with black pearls.

I've attached the car to the Bon Voyage heading with ribbon so that it swings backwards and forwards:

That girl is going places! lol

Challenge 18 - Monochrome

This challenge was almost a disaster!  My office is rather dark and when I made my card it looked like it was all shades of brown but when I took it outside to photograph, to my horror it was brown AND green!

So I made a few changes and this is what I ended up with

A bit of an improvement?

Challenge 17 - Pale Pink & Black

This one I found rather difficult.  I used a new stamp set and added a few hand made cherry blossoms made from tissue paper.
