Little Angel at TioT

Hi folks,

I was a little behind last week and didn't manage to finish my DT card in time for the 'Angels & Demons Challenge at Try it on Tuesdays - mind you, I wasn't the only one !  It seems some of you are finding this a difficult challenge- so if you pop over here you will see more  mid week inspiration from some of the DT.

DD asked for a card for a friends little girl - and this little girl is so sweet, and just loves pink so it had to be this old Penny Black stamp 'Angel at Heart' - hope you like it!  The papers were a freebie with a magazine and the doily is Tim Holtz (2 pieces).  It was so sunny when I too this photo, but the middle paper is actually white with pink rosebuds!

I am entering this at:
  In the Pink - Pink woith Flowers
  ABC Challenge - Pretty in Pink
  Heck of a Challenge - Bingo (diagonal - flowers, die cut and pearls)
  Totally Papercrafts - Flowers and Bows

Just a quick one from me, and thanks for looking.

Penny Black Challenge

Just another quick post as DD has just popped out to hand deliver this card for her friends birthday.
I haven't managed a Penny Black challenge  for a while, so when she asked for a card, thought I would make the most of the opportunity to craft while she packed!
I have used Rain or Shine Friends - which seems appropriate considering the weather! Coloured it with Promarkers and used an oval nestability and 'cut outside the frame'.  The papers are Pink Petticoat and were a freebi from a magazine, I distressed all the edges with Adirondac Denim ink, and I used this weeks sketch from Totally Gorjuss.  The challenge at Papertake Weekly is 'Grown Your Own' so made my flowers with punches and the DP.
Challenges for my card are:
  Penny Black challenge - Anything Goes
  Totally Gorguss - Sketch
  Papertake Weekly - Grow Your Own
  Charisma Cards challenges - Distressing
  Crafty Sentiments challenge - Die Cuts & Punches

I'm off for a glass of wine and a 'girly' last night with DD, and hopefully I will catch up with everyone tomorrow night.
Thanks for looking and if you like what you see, please leave a comment and I will come and visit you.
