Crazy for Challenges

Another Kombi van card, I only found this digi today but I think it is going to be my favourite for a while. I have coloured this one to join in the Crazy 4 Challenges colour challenge this week of Purple, orange and black. I enjoyed this colour challenge as when I first started making cards my favourite colour combo was purple and orange. Hope you enjot this challenge. xAmanda

Color Throwdown

It is absolutely gorgeous weather at the moment on the Gold Coast so the summer cards keep on coming. I was so excited to find this Kombi van digi image today, this is my nearly twelve year old's dream car. I made this card today for Color Throwdown's challenge unfortunately I didn't write it down and just remembered yellow, blue, white, olive but it was supposed to be a darker blue,brilliant blue, so it's not the exact colours sorry.I've been having alot of fun crafting again as my two girls are very keen on scrapbooking all their photos so they've been crafting with me. Hope you enjoy this challenge. x Amanda

paper romance challenge

Paper Romance have a black and white and one other colour challenge. I have chosen purple, black and white. Again I have used a new decoupage kit I bought from the craft shop which I like. Unfortunately when I have photographed my cards with my phone they were too blurry so I scanned them and it's harder to see the 3D. I think my husband really likes these cards it's the most he has ever commented on my cards even browsing the net for me to get more kits. Hope you like it. x Amanda

papertake weekly

A trio of football players for Papertake Weekly's Trio Tastic Challenge. I found a new craft store today and when I walked in I thought it didn't have anything I wanted. I then looked closely at the cards made by the owner and she told me about the decoupage sets she makes them with. I ended up buying one of every different one she had in the shop. This is one of them, I bought sporting and car ones. They are a little different for me I Hope you like them. x Amanda

baby bentley
