Creative Moments Challenge reminder – sketch

Feb1

This card is a little reminder of the monthly challenge at Creative Moments challenge blog. This month we have an optional sketch as the theme. My last post showed you a card using a digi from Beccy’s Place using the sketch, but this shows a different way to use another fabulous free digi from Beccy. The digi is called STOCKING and is coloured with Promarkers. It’s worth looking to see what great choice Beccy has especially some new valentine’s and love themed digistamps. The backing card is very old and from my stash and the sentiment is from an olld Forever Friends card kit. Diont forget to look at the Creative Moments challenge blog for some great and varied interpretations of the sketch and of course to enter your own card!

Feb14

Forever Friends is such a sweet brand. I remember them being introduced in the early 90s. I have used Docrafts products to make this card on a black card blank.

New baby girl – forever friends

Mar9

I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life he will be given over to the LORD.

1 Samual 1:27-28

I have made this card specifically for my cousin and his wife whose daughter Ruby Rose arrive this week. I have used a DoCrafts CD in Digital Designer to create the rose-pink themed card and a card sticker to finish off. The CD is available for free at the moment with the DoCrafts Creativity Magazine, I bought mine this week at Hobbycraft.

I have designed this card based on a sketch.

Forever Friends Valentine – for my hubby

Feb9

This card was made using Docrafts Black and Gold Forever Friends kit. It can be difficult making a man’s valentines card, and I wanted a card that used masculine colouring.
