Always my friend.
Had a blast playing with Purple and Green. They are such a vibrant combination. Love the sound of “Always my friend” It leaves a world of feelings for the receiving end. The sketch is from Paper studio at :

Here’s my take :
Fairytales.
You have to have a look at the kind of fantastic stuff the women at Kortskissen have come out with. It is truly amazing. I have just tried out a very simple card only inorder to participate with them. Their work was exceptional. Really inspired by these women. Please follow the link :

The sketch is :
Although I dont understand German, I really wanted to communicate with the ladies at that end just so as to let them know my appreciatiion of their work.
My take on the sketch is :
Mother Card
It just occured to me, that in the last year or so, I havent even attempted a card for Moms. And it did’nt strike me until after I started working on this sketch and was wondering what embellishment would shine out .. I kept toying with the ideas … until in the pile of scrap, I came across this little strip that I had kept in my stash which read, “you bring out the best in us all”. It felt perfect and It really did’nt take too long to figure which relationship does that stem from. I had pasted 6 strips of ribbon and I had 6 metal alphabets for Mother .. Eureka.
Hope you like the card coz I do. Although my camera has not done justice with the light I had. Still, its good.
The sketch comes from : Craft Your Passion. at : http://craftyourpassionchallenges.blogspot.com/2010/12/challenge-36-sketch.html
and here’s my take :
A first for me.
If theres one thing thats come out good out of all the illness in the house, its my need to retreat in the studio. Last night, I guess, I was blown off.. I charged into the studio at 1 in the night, armed with a few sketches from the challenges and came out with 3 hours later, with 6 cards !! That was a first for me.
It was real joy ! I am so pleased with myself and how I’m going to manage the day with the couple of hours of morning sleep ? Good question…
