Going in circles

Good evening blogland

Genuinely I am such a dimwit!  For the first time in absolutely ages I was invited to GDT on a challenge blog and guess what - I only went and got the days wrong in my head!

How on earth I got a Try it on Tuesday challenge in my head for a date that was a Friday I'll never know.  So all I can do is offer a genuine apology to the whole Team and get my card up as soon as possible, 

The theme of the challenge is use circles on you project and this is the card I made:

Supplies used:

Rubber stamps (and matching dies):

My Favorite Things: JB Monkey Around Duo

coloured with my Copics

Dies:

Pretty Pink Posh: Scallop Borders 1

MFT: Die-namics - I&O stitched circles

un-branded stitched rectangles

Anything else:

various very old designer papers

Time for Tea: Sweet Summer enamel dots

OK, so I will apologise one more time to all the lovely crafters over at Try it on Tuesday and go away to hide in my shame for being so incredibly late posting this!

Cheerio for now,

Sarah

Hello Blogland,

I was very lucky awhile back to have a card win over at AAA Birthday Challenges and, as the winner, was asked if I'd like to Guest Designer for their July challenge - well of course I said yes! Not going to turn down a lovely opportunity like that now am I now!

So we are in July and here I am a Guest Designer - the theme for the challenge this month is Where in the World? Which basically means your birthday card could be themed to where you live (a recognisable building / monument / location; colours of your flag; bit of landscape), somewhere you've been on holiday or somewhere you'd like to go in the world. However, it does have to be a birthday card.

I decided my inspiration would be what I like to refer to as my home town. I've lived in Lincolnshire in the countryside of the United Kingdom for just over 20 years, but I am originally from a much bigger town - in fact the Capital of the UK - a little place I used to call home but others call London!

This is what I made:

Supplies Used:

Digital stamp:

Lili of the Valley - Little Policeman

coloured with my Copics

Free downloaded London image

Rubber Stamp:

Catherine Pooler - All around Wishes (sentiment)

Dies:

Creative Expressions - stitched squares

Julie Hickey - Birthday

Once again I'd like to say thank you to the Design Team (and particularly Jane for all her help with the details of the challenge) over at AAA Birthdays for giving me the chance to GDT - their makes are always fabulous and I'm honoured to be included in the Team this once! 

See you soon,

Signing off for now,

Sarah
