Bit of a Mixture


Hi all, this weekend in between swollen legs, hands, being sickly and looking after mum I managed to get the following cards done for some challenges lol.
This first card I have made for:

For this card I used a Wags'n Whiskers Digi Stamp coloured with promarkers. The papers are mainly SU I have added ribbon, sentiment (freebie not sure where from) flowers and card candy
I also added a butterfly which is double layered the bottom layer I used my SU punch the top layer my new Tonic Butterfly punch.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My second card I am entering into the following challenges:

This is my first time making a real CAS card and I enjoyed it, I am seeing this style emerge more and more and I find it very pleasing to the eye, cards in this style always seem to look classy not sure mine does though.
I have used a white pearlescent A5 card base, pink satin ribbon and my new Unity stamp set called The Simple Things. I used black Momento ink and did a shadow effect as well, the sentiment is part of the set.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally my third card which as you can see is quite different and was inspired by Stef aka Glitterbabe's new Challenge the theme this week is to use a colour combo of Orange, Pink and Turquoise I am also entering this into the following challenges:

I have used a digi image from Di's Digi Downloads I think her images are so beautiful and cute I have coloured her with promarkers, the papers are Basic Grey I added different coloured pink ribbons, orange roses, turquoise butterflies and card candy.

Well everyone I really hope you have enjoyed looking at my 'Bit of a Mixture' card selection 
Hugs to all and see you later.

Wow Lorraine you have been busy, your CAS is amazing love the shadow effect, I like it as well but havent tried it, the image on the 1st one is so sweet, and the colour combo on the 3rd isnt what I would put together but it really works, 3 stunners.

dear Lorraine,

I'm back again and wow your cards are again so marvelous, I love them.

Here is all right, with Leonard all is good, he is such a lovely and smiley boy, and so sweet. With myself it isn't so good because I can't still walking and I sit the whole day in my electric bad chair but I can cardmaking and embroidery and some cooking for all the family

big hugs Lia
