Two Cards One post

Hi all I have two cards to show you I feel like I have been flooding you with so many creations lately that I really truly hope you don't get fed up with visiting me.

My first card is an easel fold and this one I am entering into the challenges at

Dottie's World - Easel Fold

MMSC - Sketch

I have incorporated the MMSC for this card I have used SU backing papers, lace, flowers, card candy and this beautiful image which was a freebie for everyone who joined in last week's Dottie's World challenge.

I have coloured the image with Copics mounted onto blue mirror card and used my Field of Sky stamp using a blue Versacolour ink pad.

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

My second card fits nicely into the new challenge at Totally Papercrafts the theme being Multi Fold

Well I think you will agree this is definitely Multi Fold

I have used a thick yellow card for my base the papers are SU, the ribbon is from my stash and very soft and shiny. I have used Longing Tilda for the main front picture stamp with Versafine Sepia and coloured with Copics the surrounding stamp is Elusive Images.

And this is the look you get when opened.........I have used Longing Tilda again coloured exactly the same I have turned the papers and used the other side added some card candy and lace.

This is yet another part of the card when fully opened, this time I have used a swirl die cut and another Elusive Images flower stamp coloured with Copics and cut out with a Nestie Circle the green nestie is vellum.

The part of the card where the swirl is is actually a gift slot the deeper yellow I inserted to show this.
I have edited this to show you the insert

This is a close up of the flower image.

Well I hope you have enjoyed my pictures and I hope I am not giving you all too much to see.

If anyone likes this fold and would like to try it then visit HERE for the tutorial.

Sew Many Challenges Blog Hop & Challenge

Hi all hope you are well and enjoying the Easter holidays before I get onto my post I would love to share some wonderful news with you all I have been chosen as one of the new DT for Sew Many Challenges.

I was so thrilled when I found out as I have always loved working with the Sew Many Animal characters and now along with the new releases this is going to be a wonderful experience not only for me but hopefully for you as well.

This week saw the launch of a new blog hop at Sew Many Challenges where you have a chance of winning one or more of the brand new super super cute images from Angela. If you haven't been over to have a nosey then please do so it is well worth the visit. The Sew Many Challenge this week is 'Folds' this could be gatefold, tent fold or any other fold that you fancy having a go at, below I am showing not one but two cards I have made using a different technique the first one is new to me and I just love the finished card which is called a tri-fold.

I used basic white card stock added some backing paper which I think is Basic Grey the pink lace is the MS border punch and is my favourite so far. I added some gems and adhesive ribbon on the centre inside panel the scallops are from my SU stamping set and punch and this is the first time I have used it. I just could not resist using my all time favourite image Jovi who I have coloured with pro markers and mounted on nestie scallops.

This second card is the 'crossover' card which I have always loved and this one I am entering into a few other challenges as well. I have used Purple and Turquoise for this one and again coloured Jovi with pro markers but this time with purples I added some Cosmic Silver Glitter, ribbon and flowers.
