In my spare time (?) this week I managed to make a couple cards for challenges. The first is for my friend Majo's challenge at My Sketch World. Her challenge this month was to make an Easter card. Here is what I came up with.
Chocolate Bunny
Complete with a mini pom tail made out of Twinery Twine.
The second card I made is for a fairly new challenge site called, Cards in Envy. My friend, Karen is a DT member there. The challenge is to use this sketch.
The rules for every challenge is to make a card that wont require any extra postage. So it can't have any bulky elements on it. Here is my take.
I couldn't get the sentiment to look right spread across the entire card so I offset it at the bottom with a doily and SRM label sticker.
The upper corner are SRM border stickers.
The Card Envy challenge ends on the 17th and the MSW challenges go to the end of the month if you would like to join in on the fun!
Happy Saturday, friends!
