Before I became a SU demonstrator I would occasionally enter a few challenges, I found it gave me a bit of inspiration and was just fun to do. Now I don't seem to have enough hours in the day, why, I don't know, but I do always have a look over at the Simply Stampin challenge blog and this week I made the plunge and decided to go for it....I guess it may have helped that the lovely Amanda is a guest designer.....so here is my card....
Will be back later in the week with yet another lovely set from the new mini. It really is a 'must see' catalogue so if you want to book a party or come along to card club please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Thanks for stopping by,
Take care
Supplies used; all SU unless stated: Pumpkin pie card and ink, tempting turquoise ink, so saffron ink. up, up and away stamp set, crumb cake card, marina mist ink, mat pack and paper piercing tool, linen thread.
ooooh, what a pretty card, I love the dimension on your balloons, my set should be arriving tomorrow, I can't wait!
