For my Dad x

Tanda Stamps challenge theme this week is 'Oh Daddy' ...and dashing about as ever I almost forgot to post my card on here!!
It's ok...I didn't forget to give it to my wonderful Dad though! ^.^
Not sure if this really counts now, as I didn't use a stamp in the end... I changed my mind...again!!! I'm female...I'm allowed to do that!! ^.^

Happy Halloween!!!

Halloween wishes to one and all!

These were cards I made for a 'Trick 'n' Treat' swap we are doing on Craft Swap Forum. Those wanting to take part notified Simon, and he randomly gave us all one person to send a Trick item to and one to send a Treat! We should all get one of each in return!

**Happy Birthday**

Happy Birthday Arty Girlz!!
It's their challenge blogs 1st Birthday this week...so the theme for this weeks challenge is..............Yep! Happy Birthday!! ^.^

I have done two cards...as I needed two!!

For this one I have used papers from a new blog - Summertime Designs - that I came across on my travels. There are some really lovely kits if you'd like a look :0)
I've also used a 'George' image, from the Dottie and George range.
I made this next card very simple...well...if you call 'having a paddy' with sheets of acetate and finger prints simple that is!!
It's just textured white card stock with a Large 'Funky Bloom' image stamped in Brilliance Gold, and a Happy Birthday sentiment from Stampin' Up! also in gold...then an acetate jacket stamped with the small Funky Bloom stamp in Cotton White Stazon...and finished with a piece of Gold coloured ribbon.
Simple...but I always love the effect of white on acetate :0)
