Bright and Cheery

The challenge this week at Make My Monday is to use bright and cheery colours so I've used an image from the CD with 'Alice' images and printed off the Mad Hatter; searched through my bits boxes for some bright colours of card to match and here we have it - a bright and cheery card.

Snippets challenge 161

The more observant (and inquisitive) of you may spot something purchased recently which entitled me to the free floral stamp set used in a recent post - let the cat out of the bag really didn't I??  I've used a different feather stamp which has a matching die to make this card for the Pixie Snippets challenge this week (and yes I know I have the free feather set but these ones were already on order when I was tempted by the magazine!!). What a good thing that feathers seem to be popular at the moment.  The largest snippet is a left over piece of Prima paper and everything else is cut from snippets of card from the bits boxes.  Just right to pop into the box for a male card I thought.

Background - Prima text paper snippet
Embossed panels - Cuttlebug folder
Feathers - from Four feathers set by Stampin' Up with matching Framelits dies
Sentiment - Tim Holtz stamp
