3 Patterned Papers and some Challenge Play

Hi Everyone!  Here's my second post for this wet and humid Tuesday.  Yesterday I had the housework done early and 'A' was amusing himself (whilst on school holidays) playing the computer so I hid away in my craft room for a while.  I was in need of a few general cards to pop in the post to a few friends overseas and not having played along with any challenges for months it seemed like a good enough reason too!

Here is a look at the two cards I made. The papers are from the Glitz Unchartered Waters Paper Collection, Itty Bitty Stamps by Unity, Distress Stains and Water-brush to color.





I really liked the card sketch this month over at the Unity 'Be Inspired Challenge' and combined this with the pretty color palette (closest I had to it) over at 'The Paper Players'  Both of my cards are inspired by these challenges.

    


Thanks for looking.

These are beautiful, what a fab contrast of the more delicate colours and image designs on that more bold monochromatic paper, works really well! Happy New Year xx Zoe xx
