Monochrome Madness

Hi all,

It's Tuesday and it's time for another challenge at Creative Craft. This week we want to see your monochromatic projects. We have two wonderful sponsors this week. Digi's with Attitude are offering a $10 voucher to their store and Whiff of Joy are giving one of their fab new stamps. The DT were lucky enough to have a play with an image from Digi's with attitude. I chose Grumpy Gretchen Work out. She's as grumpy as I am when I do my training, but if I looked like her, I think I would be smiling a bit more! I went for shades of green (again, I'm sorry!). Please check out all the fab projects from the rest of the DT.

Feeling blue

Hi,

Martha and I picked up my in laws from the airport this morning. They had a good flight, but a day's travelling takes it out on you, so while they and Martha are having a nap, I thought I would post this card I made for Daisy. Her 4th birthday is in January, but last year she didn't get a card from us (I know, it's terrible). We were in England for Christmas and I was going to make her card when we got back before her birthday. Unfortunately, snow played havoc with our travel plans and we ended up in Northumberland for Daisy's birthday. By the time we got back here, it was a bit late to make her a card. Anyway, I didn't want that to happen again, so I'm early with it. Daisy's favourite colour is blue (I think that's because she loves Thomas the Tank Engine!) and she is going through a pretty dress and princess phase, so I put both together. The stamp is a fab one from Kraftin' Kimmie called Marie Antoinette. I am entering this into the Allsorts challenge - monochrome.

Got the blues!

Over on Polkadoodles the challenge is monochrome. I chose blue and made an easel card. I used patterned acetate and the stamp is by SU. This is quite clean and simple, but I quite like it.

I'm sorry I've been a bad blogger this week but I've been getting ready for my parents to arrive. They were meant to come last week but their flight was cancelled because of the volcano. At least it meant I could be ready for them when they do arrive and they now have a bed to sleep on! Also, I've been having lots of blood tests done as the midwife thought I might have gestational diabetes. I just have to wait and see for the results. Hopefully my mojo will come back soon.
