Another crafternoon with mum

Hello there - hope you are all well! Its mine and hubbies wedding anniversary today - we chose to get married on the spring Equinox 8 years ago - and I'm so glad that we did. The date seemed significant then - and 8 years on it seems even more so. Best thing I ever did!!!!

Onto todays cards. On Tuesday afternoon me and mum had another crafty session. I made both of these cards that I want to show today - I'm not overly happy with either of them - but hopefully the next crafternoon will be a little more fruitful - we're hoping to play with shaving foam and create some backgrounds! Watch this space.

Todays cards then:

This first one is for the Christmas card pile. Its a Sheena Douglass stamp that I've simply inked up and coloured with promarkers. The dies are spellbinders.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

I love promarkersilovepromarkers: Anything goes
Winter wonderlandchristmasblogchallenge: A little bird
Sparklessparklesforumchallenges: Birds

The second card uses a that special touch mask and crafty individuals crowned rabbits. The colours are inspired by Hels Sheridans Sunday stamper challenge which this week is Brown.

I've used black dreamweaver embossing paste with this one. The images were stamped in brown memento ink and I've left them uncoloured. The paper is part of the Engraver collection. I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Sunday Stamperpinkleart: Brown
J and C Creationsjandccreationschallenge: Easter

We're off out for a meal this evening - my Rainbows helper Alice is babysitting - I do wonder if the children will be well behaved! Hope so!

Have a lovely day! Thanks for visiting and for any comments you choose to leave.
