Not Just Cards Challenge blog - September Challenge - Anything Goes

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How has your week been? I have been very busy. I think I have been out every day. Some of the evenings  have been busy too. At the weekend we are going to a socially distanced wedding. This will be an interesting experience. 

The new challenge has started at the Not Just Cards Challenge blog the theme is always Anything Goes. So it is nice and easy to enter. There are no prizes but there is a badge to display on your blog if you are picked as a winner. 


This is the anniversary card that I made for our daughter and son-in-law. I can't believe that they have been married for three years. The paper I used was in my stash. 

Our challenges are lots of fun. Click on the blog logo and you will be taken there. 


This image came from an old card. I just loved the cute hedgehogs so much. The little bows were in my stash too. 


I know they thought this card was cute. Their next big adventure is when they move house for which they do not have a date yet. 

Happy Crafting

Flowers and Bows

Hi Bloggers

I am using a laptop borrowed from my husband's work as our desktop, Old Faithfull, has decided to give up the ghost. I can check things on my phone and my Kindle but they are no good for updating your blog.

Todays card is one I made for a challenge. I wanted it to be fresh and summery using what I think of as  ice-cream colours.

  
 
The main background was inked with Distress Inks and then embossed with the Rows of Bows Pinpoint A4 embossing folder by Sue Wilson. The dies I used were  Sue Wilson's classic bow die, it does make a lovely bow , the Faux Quilled leaves and the Delicate daisies die set. I made the tiny envelope myself and stamped a little sentiment.
 
I used some Creative Expressions stamps to make this background I wanted it to reflect what I had put on the back of the card,
 
This weekend it is Keith's Dad's 90th Birthday. The big family party is happening on Sunday and on the actual day a group of his friends have a celebration planned. On a different note my cousin applied for our Great Uncle William's name to be read out at an event at  the Tower of London honouring those who fell in World War 1, his name will be read out tomorrow.
 
I hope you all have a good weekend.
 
Happy crafting.
 
Hugs Jackie
