One paper - Two challenges

I have a few teenage nephews, neices and friend's children that I buy birthday and christmas presents for. Teenagers are so difficult to buy for and they always want money rather than a present (I miss the trips to The Early Learning Centre looking for fun presents for them all!) so I made a money wallet type card. I was inspired by the CAS(E) this sketch challenge this week.

I found some old Sassafraslass paper and came up with this.

I was on a roll then and with the same paper came up with another card inspired by this weeks CASE Study challenge card by Teri Anderson.

Here they are together.

Go See Do

My son is off to Europe and Russia for a couple of weeks soon. It's his first proper holiday on his own. There's so many places in the world he wants to see and he loves photography, so he'll have loads of photo opportunities. I made him a card to wish him well.

I've also entered it in the CAS - Colours and Sketches Challenge this week using these colours.

The challenge on Less is More this week is 'Up in the air' so perfect for that challenge as well.

Shades of Blue

It's my Mums birthday this weekend, so I made her this card in 3 different shades of blue. I used Verve stamps - I think they look so elegant.

I'm also entering this card for this weeks CAS - Colours and Sketches challenge.

Good Luck card

I was asked to make a large leaving card for someone at work so came up with this.

I'm also entering it in this weeks CAS-ual Fridays challenge.
