First Card of 2011

Morning All

Yesterday I  finally managed to get back into my crafting room and found time to make a card.  I had a nice relaxing time in there whilst my boys were busy playing and hubby was cleaning his car.  I didn't get in there as early as I wanted to as I seem to be forever losing things at the moment and spending hours turning the house upside down looking for them!  My New Year's resolution is to get more organised which I say every year but maybe this year I will LOL.

For my card I have used:

Magnolia Tilda image
Promarkers
DCWV papers
MS heart punch/MC flower die
Nesties
FF sentiment

I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Sketch and Stash - challenge 52 used my new lacey circle nesties (love them)
Papertake - anything goes
Fab n Funky - anything goes
Charisma - Birthdays and blog hop

Thanks for looking and any comments you leave.

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND MY TOP 5 CARDS OF 2010

Hi

I would like to wish everybody a happy, healthy and prosperous 2011 - where did 2010 go to?

I haven't yet been able to get back into my craft room since before Xmas as I have been away and now have visitors.  I am dying to get back in there but as I can't at the moment I thought I would join in with Debby's challenge of your 5 best cards.  I haven't been blogging that long so don't have that many cards to choose from but here they are in no particular order:


This is my favourite Tilda Xmas image.  I loved the colours used in this card.


Daisy has to be one of my all time favourite stamps and I don't think you can go wrong using her on a card.


I made this card for my nan.  I love the muted yellows and greens used on this card and the layout.

This was my first card made using a sketch from the Just Magnolia challenge blog and I really enjoyed following the sketch.

Last but not least another Tilda card.

I would just like to say a big thank you to everyone who has commented on my cards it means a lot to me and I love reading them.

Love
Sarahxx
