Here are the next to cards for my little sis I think these ones are goth enough. Do you think they would count as minimal for the ccc challenge.???


I have done them very similar as if I know my sis she will leave them on display i thought it would be good if they matched.

Great cards Mumhug - but like Flourgirl says they are a bit scary . I'm sure you sister will love them though. I think they would more than qualify for the creative crew card challengexx

lol:rotfl:they are not mysort of thing at all but i think she will like them, Yes saveapenny they are rock hard fairies. I posted parcel yesterday so not sure when it will arrive (won't go through door)

I think I will do something else for the minimal challenge .

Hi - have had a look in my stamped images of Tilda and Magnolia (brought them from ebay - ready to paint etc cheaper than the actual stamp - look under Stamped Images - its great! - but sorry no images of Barefoot Tilda

sallyuk - sorry nothing red x

rustyflange - they are lovely - can you tell me what / where you get them - brads(?) buttons (?) or could they be sticky thingies (?) - the dots along the bottom of your image?

saveapenny - I love your card - have brought the decoupage packs for Daisy & Dandelion - have not got round to making any yet - liked the last sets that came out the beginning of the month - had the scenery type backing papers (bit like Joanna Sheens' Messy Rabbit papers)

I think I might creep off from this forum:rotfl::rotfl:! - your cards are all beautiful - you very clever people - its a good job I dont know how to upload photos:rotfl:
Hope to catch up with you all soon - kind regards jaqui xx

Does anyone know whether to submit a card to the Creative Crew Card Challenge that you have to make it this week . It's just that I wondered if this would qualify for being minimalist, but I made it a couple of weeks ago

'Evening All! :hello::hello:(sorry but I love this smilie)
I have spent a lovely restful couple of hours this afternoon colouring in various stamped images that I have printed off - ended up using pencils as couldn't get the colours right with the pens that I have got. Trying to persuade OH for a visit to the Range tomorrow as last time I was there they had 36 (I think) whispers pens in a sort of triangular plastic case reduced to £19.99 - does that sound reasonable? I thought that if I got 36, then I should have all the colours I need - does anybody else have this set?

Rusty, sounds like good news with job prospects for your OH.

Mumhug, where did you get the goth images for your sisters card?

Mary, could you position the poles in your garden and wind round some glittery wire or the holographic silvery type gift wrapping that we all use at Christmas. You could do a variation on a stitched card lol!:rotfl::rotfl:

Talking of Christmas I have just seen an advert for (Cadbury) Clusters on Sky 1 - a load of people singing adapted christmas song dressed up as Father Christmasses dancing in the park!:santa2: hehehe
Going to read through the posts properly now, as memory is going - comes with old age I suppose
