Scribble and Scrap Challenge 47 - Always Anything Goes

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

I had a fantastic time at the workshop yesterday. I really enjoyed it, John Lockwood  is so talented. I must admit that I messed up two of the three projects but I am going to have a try at home to see if I can do better. I was talking too much I did meet some lovely people.

This is a rather sad post. Today see the start of the last challenge at the Scribble and Scrap Challenge Blog. I have enjoyed being on the Design Team I have met some wonderful people but now it is time to move on. There will still be a prize for this challenge so why not join in one last time. The theme is always "Anything Goes".


I made this 8" x 8" card for a commission. The brief I was given was to make it girly. As you know from yesterday's post my favourite colour is mauve so that is the colour I chose to use.  The background I made with a Sue Wilson Striplet die called Eternal Rings to which I added CS white pearl PVA glue. This I left to dry for a long time. 


I made the the flower with Sue Wilson dies Delicate Daises complete and open petal. To the centre of each flower I added a punched flower and some more CS PVA glue. I also used the trailing ivy die. 


The tag was from another Sue Wilson set Pierced Tags. The sentiment was cut with some Britannia Dies.  


I had finished the card but I was not happy something was missing. Well I ended up  doing the classic thing and adding a butterfly again cut with another Sue Wilson die this one from the Magical Butterflies set. Do you get the impression that I have a lot of Sue Wilson dies. Yes I have. 


I really was there and I did meet him.  


I hope you have a wonderful Sunday. I am off to the Portsmouth Sincerely Yours Papercraft show. Not exactly a Father's Day treat we are going to the cinema after. Also we are dropping off the wedding invitations they are finished. 

I would like to enter this card for Challenge 33 at the Butterfly Challenge Blog

Happy Crafting 

Hugs Jackie
