For my card I have used the image Nap Time from
Rick St Dennis, if you would like to purchase
this image  then just click on the link HERE.

DETAILS

1. Card size is 8 x 8 and I enlarge the image, as this was going
to be the only focal point on the card.

2. The image was printed onto Copic card and coloured with
Copic. I also generated the sentiment before printing off.

3. Before adhering to the card I stamped the corner sentiment
at each corner of the card. The stamp is from the set by Phil
Martin ( Baroque Everyday Corner Sentiments).

I really enjoyed colouring this card and making it CAS.
Hope you will pop over to the challenge blog and  join in.

Summertime

Good Morning,

My Crafty Friends, Visitors and Follower,

Back from my holidays and enjoyed the rest, the weather
could have been better but there you go nothing I can do
about that.

I visited South Wales, Milford Haven and to my surprise
I was contacted by the lovely Andree AKA Ace Cards
 telling me that she lived not far away and that she takes a
  crafting class every Wednesday morning at In House Crafts
and would I like to go along.  Well the answer was yes
and I had a wonderful morning, met some lovely
ladies and had a mixed media class.  we created a
tag ( I will show later). I cannot thank Andree, the
ladies and Cheryl the owner enough, who all made me
feel very welcome. After the class Andree and I had
a fabulous lunch.

It was a great morning and once again Andree
thank you.  So if you are going anywhere near
Milford Haven, go into the Marina and call
in the shop and say hello and a browse  as they
may be a small shop but its like Aladdin's Cave
and they are so helpful.

Right back to the business of the day.

Today we are starting our first challenge of the year

Anyway back to business

It time again to introduce our 9th challenge over at

also come along and support us by joining in.

DETAILS

1. Created an A5 white card and matted it firstly with black
card.

2. The next layer is paper from the  Fleur D'imagination cd

Remember monochrome can be any choice of colour, just has
to be different shades of it.  I personally like to use black & white.
