Friendship book



On one of the PCP groups that I belong to, we exchange Friendship pages, which can be bound together to form a book. These are my pages that I have been swoping.
White CS, stamped with light blue using a Hero Arts flourish stamp.
"Friends" stamp by Great Impressions, stamped onto white CS
Blue cardstock, again stamped with the flourish stamp in a darker blue.
Both of these cut with a nestability
Flowers and leaves are punched out, with a White flower from my stash and a yellow brad.
Page 2 gives all my details that were required. A lovely way to know more about my cardmaking frends.

Cuttlebug spot challenge 10


I made this card for the cuttlebugspot challenge. It required you to have a 10 on the card.
Today is our grandaughter Robyn's 10th birthday. She lives in the Netherlands. This challenge came just a week too late, as she already has a card from us, but "what the heck" A 10th birthday is worth another card. So Robyn this one is for you as well.
I used a lavender CS and embossed the candles folder and numbers from the alphabet, also "happy b'day" all from cuttlebug folders.
DP paper is from my Funky hand CD and the charm was from a RAK.
I know she likes bling so, the candles have yellow glitter and the numbers and words, some stickles.
So watch the post for this one Robyn. Hope you had a wonderful day.
