Inkspirational #121

A very Happy Week end to you all.

We have our photo challenge at Inkspirational. Here is what I created:

And our photo:

This is the perfect photo for today in Britain as it is 'Bonfire Night' or 'Guy Fawkes' night. For those you want to know a little history behind why we celebrate this night just click here

Tonight across Britain there will be fireworks lighting up the skies, just like our photo.

My heart firework is a new stamp from The Ton and the sentiment is from STAMPlorations

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is my fellow teamie at AAA Cards Jenny. I have got to know Jenny since being on the AAA DT and her designs are amazing. I am very excited to say that Jenny has just joined the DT at Time Out-the challenge I run with fellow Inkspirational teamie Nonni. She is super talented-check out her blog Craftmosh and I guarantee you will be inspired.

Joy to The World and reminder for Time Out

Hi All

First off I apologise for not visiting your blogs recently as I am not so well but will be back very soon. My posts have been pre-scheduled but I actually felt like a bit of crafting and have this post for you today.

Over at Less is More they are celebrating their 300th challenge. A huge congrats to all of you at this challenge, we all love it and have a lot of fun playing along.

I am here celebrating with a Christmas CAS card.

A simple silver snowflake then a sparkle die. Can't get more CAS than this! This die is cut using glitter foam so super quick to make. I made a few more in a variety of colours-not a great photo but just wanted to give you an idea.

Hello All

We have a stunning photo for you at The Card Concept.

Here is my 'Clean and Simple' card

Easy to see that I was inspired by the typewriter and the colours.

You can create a card using this photo as inspiration and use any style of card making you want or combine a few styles. Here is the definition of our styles.

Our Guest Designer for November is the very talented Lisa Elton. Check out her blog here and you will see so many creative projects.

Time Out #69

Hello there,

We have a new challenge at Time Out. It is our 'Inspired by Words' challenge and our words are:

'Give Thanks with a Grateful Heart'

You can use any of these words to inspire you or perhaps use the whole phrase.

I went with 'Thanks' and created this one layer card:

I have used the circle burst stamp from The Ton and the '#You Rock' is from Happy Little Stampers. I just rounded off the edge to the card as it seemed to fit perfectly with the circle stamp.

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is the very talented Karren. Check out her blog Stamping Stuff and you will see how very creative she is. We are so happy that Karren is joining us for this challenge.

Karren and our DT have all been inspired differently and have created amazing cards-take a look here. Then next week more of our team and Karren will be back with another set of cards for you.

This challenge doesn't close until Wed 9th November 5pm GMT...plenty of time to take some TIME OUT and craft with us.

AAA cards #76-Masculine

Hi All,

Our challenge this week at AAA cards is:

'Masculine'

We want to see cards for guys!

Here is my make:

The white bows are actually made from glitter card but not sure you can see this so well. This card went to my Uncle for his Birthday. He is definitely a black tie guy so thought he would find this a lot of fun

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is the very talented Joyce. Her blog is full of inspiring and creative projects. Take a look here and I guarantee you will come back inspired to get inky!

Our sponsors for this challenge are Stampendous.  The winner will get a $20 gift voucher to spend in their store.

Remember our challenge is for 'Clean and Simple' cards only so we like to see lots of space on your cards.

Most of all enjoy!

More Coffee??

Want anymore coffee??

I am back with my second coffee card. I actually made this card first (before the one I posted yesterday) but was not so happy with it. So I then went more CAS and made my one layer version. Still I decided to share this with you as we can't always love the cards we make!

This time I used the colours from Sunday Stamps going with the same rough design making the sentiment the star again:

Which card did you like best? Here is a quick reminder of yesterday's card:
