CCC14 August Cards
The CCC14 challenge for August is to use torn paper on your cards. Not great with torn edges BUT I did make snow drifts and rough ground to come up with these cards. The backgrounds are sponged with various inks and all the stamps are from Marks Finest Papers. The cute snowman is from a recently released set called Brrrr and the wise men are from the mini set called Wise Men.
These cards were all made yesterday on our lovely wet, and I mean wet, UK bank holiday.

FOSTV139 - Using Eyelets
I have only stamped a sentiment today and then created the star out of eyelets and some gold fibre. The sentiment is from the set Poinsettia Blooms
The card I used for sky has great sparkle so I had to take several photos to capture it. A simple card but I wanted to make the eyelets key to the design.
We would love you to join the challenge at FOSTV this week. Hopefully most people have eyelets somewhere in their collection. You can find details of the challenge here FOSTV139.

My card is an anniversary card and uses the flowers to fasten closed.
If you can please play along and you could win the set called Halloween Selections. Have a great week.

My card today uses stencils with both the small flowers from the set and the main hydrangea image which I layered. This card went to our friends in CA who were such wonderful hosts recently.

Here are my cards for today. The first uses a stencil, a fence die and one of the crows. Intentionally left blank until I know how I want to use it.
My second card uses another stencil and several colours of distress ink with the sentiment from the Scarecrow set. I thought of Toni and all the goodies she shares from her crop harvests.
