Two Challenges Done!!!

Been a very busy girl this morning and have completed my cards for both the Tanda Teaser and The Daring Cardmakers challenges.
First up is the Tanda Teaser Va Va VROOM which has been set by Wendy who challenged us to make a card using anything with an engine. I thought I would have a go at doing a childs card and have used my Thin Cuts Monster Truck die and my new CuttleKids Tadpole alphabet with the addition of some doodling for the edging and on the letters.Next is the DCM challenge. It's All In The Game is Sue's first challenge......it's brilliant Sue......thank you.
The challenge is to make a card with a game theme so I have chosen Chess. The board is made from two colours of the alcohol ink backgrounds I did last week which were chopped into 1" squares. The chess piece is a stamp by Rubbadubbadoo.

I have made this card for Judy NZ so that she could see the alcohol inks on the nasty mirror/holograph card as she expressed an interest in it. Inside the the card is this gift for you Judy

Just to say thank you for your kind comments and encouragement.

Well it's a gorgeous day here.......bright sunshine but a very strong wind and quite nippy. I am hoping for but not expecting the promised snow.......at least then I won't be too disappointed if we don't get it...........lol!!!
Off to tidy up my desk as I made the biggest mess doing these two cards.
Bye for now

  6. Awesome cards again, Sheila! Many thanks for my card and award, right back at you, too! Going to have a go with the inks and 'nasty' card and have a rummage round for some game pieces, but off to a craft show first.
    Enjoy your Easter weekend.
