We have a sketch by Mina for this week’s challenge. Please note that this challenge will run for 2 weeks, so our next challenge will be on 31st December so will be our Special Monthly Challenge – Anything Goes.

I decided to go all rosemantic with this card!  Fantastic wedding couple from Magnolia.  I used the masked technique with their brick window, to make it look like they were standing in front of Church wall.

Flowers -Wild Orchid Crafts

Tim Holtz inks - Pumice stone, vintage photos, brushed corduroy, antique linen, black soot, fired brick, forest moss, peeled paint, tattered rose - Running With Scissors

3 challenges in one!

I am a little rusty at making cards!  So I have made a very simple card to fit 3 challenges:

CPS 
This week is CPS Year in Review Week. To play along just pick any sketch from 2010 (#148-#198). To see all past CPS sketches you can click on the link in the left sidebar.
I picked number #163

Simon Says
This week, our challenge is an easy one - ANYTHING GOES! We know what a busy time of year this is for everyone, and it is time to spend with family and friends, so we are going easy on y'all this week!

Stamp Something
Our theme this week is to create something with a tag or pocket on it!

Me thinks my card needs a bit of umph!  Aww well least I got it done in time for the challenge.

Ingrediants

Papers are from an old paper pad
Ribbon another one I have had for ages
Tim Holtz reinkers - Vintage photo, bundled sage, peeled paint, mustard seed, dried marigold, tattered rose, fired brick - Running with Scissors
