This fortnight’s challenge was a colour combo generated by Scrapmaster’s Paradisecolor combo generator and the colour combo I chose is Old Olive, Barely Banana, Melon Mambo and Very Vanilla. The side twist was to use one of the satin ribbons. I used Barely Banana for my base card, cut out a circle in Barely Banana, […]

This fortnight’s challenge was to use bows, buttons and butterflies and to choose one, two or all three to use on your card/project and we had to use a set from the new mini. I used two sets from the new mini as I wanted the floral images from Something Sweet and the smaller flower […]
