2 Challenges and Exciting News!!

I have been decorating all day and I'm worn out, but I thought I'd just squeeze in a quick post to show you this card and to let you all know my news.

Firstly, the card...... I'll keep you all in suspense a little longer!!! This is for Cupcake Challenge 31 where the theme is brown and either pink, blue or green - obviously I went for the brown and blue option! and My Time to Craft Challenge 53 has a nature theme, so the bunnies cover that.

The penny black stamp is coloured with distress inks and because it is such a large stamp my actual card measures 13 x 19 cms....a bit larger than usual! The papers were received in some blog candy and the brown panel was trimmed with scalloped scissors and embossed with my swiss dots embossing folder. The ribbon is from my stash and the top of the pin is embossed with gold, although it looks brown in the picture.

The sentiment was computer generated and cut using my labels one nesties and the brown brad, button and ribbon are from my stash. I'm quite please with how this card turn out, whenever I use brown I always think my cards are a bit dull.... but I like this one!

And now for my news....I am a very proud DT member for Cupcake Craft Challenges. I was over the moon when I received the e-mail from Lauren and I can't wait to get started.

My 6 month term on the DT begins on the 6th April and Lauren has chosen a bunch of talented girls as fellow DT members. There will be loads of exciting challenges so I hope I will see some of you there.

Thanks for looking x
