Not Just Cards Challenge Blog - August Challenge - Anything Goes

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How is your week going? It is still hot here. I really don't do much when it is hot. My laptop is in need of replacement. It gets hot very quickly and I have to leave a while to cool down. We have just started looking for a replacement. I do hope the laptop holds out until we get a new one. 

Today sees the start of the the August challenge at the Not Just Cards Challenge blog. Our theme is always Anything Goes. 


I made this card for a very special friend. In the background is some of my inky kitchen roll. I do love the blend of colours you get on kitchen roll when you are tidying up.

Our challenges are always Anything Goes. Click on the logo and you will be taken to the blog. 


This is the centre of the Butterfly frame dies set from Creative Expressions. I have only used this die set once before. I really should use it more often. There is a separate butterfly die that comes with the set. 


This is another Creative Expressions die. I do find this one very useful, 


This is a very pretty card and my friend loved it. 

Enjoy the rest of the week 

Happy Crafting

  1. Beautiful card and background Jackie. I have the same die and love it

    Good luck with your laptop! My Windows 7 would heat up on a daily basis then close down, the poor thing has now died and I do miss it as I love Windows 7!

  8. Thisis lovely and i like the idea of using up your mopped up kitchen roll. Not doing much in this heat either , just following the shade around the garden.
