Anyway, as usual, I digress!
Hello people! Carol of Just Me: C (you should all check out her blog by the way!) asked to see more cards, so here I am with a card that I made using the inspiration gleaned from the Runway Inspired Challenge (it doesn't rain for me, it pours!) and also the fabulous sketch from Retro Sketches. It culminated in this...
I love rainbow stripes, I just can't help myself!! I was SOOO tempted to pop some rhinestones under that sentiment because it kinda looks to me like it's just 'hanging' and that upsets me. However, there's always a but huh?! I wanted this to be a 'masculine' card. Not really sure I achieved that at all mind you...the DOH certainly didn't seem to think so. I had half hoped to give this card to his Dad for his birthday (that was the plan when I sat down to make it anyway!) but now I'm not so sure.....??
I'm cutting it a bit fine on both of these deadlines, you know, just for a change...so just a quick post from me today you'll be pleased to know! I hope you're all enjoying your Friday and looking forward to fun-filled or relaxing weekends :)
Oh, just an aside...if anyone knows why blogger has started making the background of my signature image grey I would really love to know!? It's becoming a smidge irritating...my OCD is having a real problem with this! Thank you! :)
Thank you so much for stopping by ;)

ReplyDelete... oh, and I just officially became a follower of your fun blog!
ReplyDeleteLove the rainbow of colours, love this card! I agree, add the rhinestones. ;-) As for the signature block... I have no idea!
ReplyDeleteSian: so glad I 'nudged' you for more cards and that you took up the 'assignment' (did I mention I used to be a teacher?). Result: one fabulous, eye-catching, gorgeous, A++++ card! That little sprig of balloons is ultra cute, and the bold colours: stunning! Retro and Runway...cool idea to combine them as a single challenge - as you've so cleverly done here. Oh, but you are brilliant! THANK YOU x 1000000 for the shout out! You are awesome, as in AWESOME!
