I'm a winner

Today I was the lucky recipient of what I'd say is a treasure chest of crafting goodies.
Graphicus was 10 years old and I made a shadow box with cupcakes on it. This was entered into a competition and I won. YIPEE!!!
It was an open day today and I collected my prize. I waited till I got home and was astounded at the amount of the crafty goodiness inside. I'll be playing for weeks.
I also made a few 'I need purchases'
Joanna Sheens Housework Diva stamp and Tim Holtz Vintage shabby 12x12 papers.
Here's what I've put together tonight.

A real challenge for me

A friend at work asked me earlier in the week to make a card for her nephews wedding. I've not been asked t make a civil wedding card before. So after a lot of thought and studying the invite I remembered I had a leaf the same shape as the one on the invite. I'ts from Graphicus retro flower stamp plate. My friend showed the card to her sister and then came a second order. I neede to make it special. I made an easel card a little larger than usual. The corner stamp is from the 'with sympathy stamp plate from Graphicus. The difficulty I had was trying to stay away from too feminine. All were pleased with the results.

I love Mo Mannings images, her art work is fab. I fell in love with this rabbit and sent a couple of belated birthday cards.
I recently bought a couple of packs of promarkers after only having bought copics before and I think I'm going to have a foot in both camps. I do love the super brush on te copic but there are lovely colours in the promarkers as well. Think I'll keep colouring with both.
