The instuctions we had to follow were

Challenge 11 What a Delight!! SCS Sugar Nellie

This week Fiona`s challenge over at SCS Sugar Nellie, was "No Embellishments" ie flowers,bling ect. Well I have chosen to go very minimal and have stamped Leanne Ellis` Belle Flower straight onto my base card.

I used my Hugy Board to emboss the corners and black peel off letters for my sentiment.

I coloured in my image using my promarkers Mustard,Gold, Warm Gray 1&2, Ice Gray 1, Lilac, Leaf green & Pear green. The linen card came from the Paperterie Stoneywood mill & the vellum was from Crafter`s Companion. The insert was printed from Crafter`s Companion Love CD rom . The theme was inspired around the bridesmaids and because I have just finished the invites have kept to the same colour theme. The colour of the dresses are unknown toa ll but the girls and of course the bride to be. Loved this weeks challenge Fi and thanks for your hard work once again!!

Sugar Nellie Challenge 8

YEH!! Great news I`ve won the week 8 challenge set by Fiona in the sugar Nellie challenge over on Split Coast Stampers. I now have to make a choice of three stamps from the HOS as my prize. I`ve chosen two of them Hamish & Maggie as I think they are sooooo.... adorable. I`ll have to have a think as to my third. As it happened I was in Elgin today home of Sugar Nellie & went in past after attending a study day for work. A few stamps happened to find there way home with me, namely the whole set of the new stamps launched this month. It` such a hard job choosing from all these wondeful images. i`m off to get my thinking cap on.
