5 for today!

Had yet another lovely crafting day today and managed to get 5 cards and upteen challenges completed!

This first one is for Mojo Monday #190 for the sketch, Papertake Weekly's Challenge to use punches or die cuts and for Farm Fresh Friday's Congratulations Challenge. I currently have a PGCE student (trainee teacher) with me at the moment and she will finish in 2 weeks time, so this card is for her for when she finally passes her course. I have made her loads of other bits and bobs which I'll post some other time when everything is finished.


Recipe:

Stamps: Teacher Anya from The Greeting Farm, Signature Greetings, Teacher's Apple both from PTI

Papers: Real Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Summer Picnic DSP (retired) all from SU, Copics White

Accessories: Real Red Striped Grosgrain Ribbon (retired), Real Red and Old Olive Buttons (retired) all from SU, Swiss Dots Embossing Folder, 3D Gloss, Rectangle Nestabilities

My next card is a little thank you card for the lady we are getting our kitten from next Friday. This is our little kitty now at 8 weeks old. Isn't she just adorable?! She's really friendly and is just so happy to sit for ages being stroked and fussed over. She's going to be one spoilt kitty that's for sure!


Anyway... this card is for SC332 for the sketch, Totally Tilda's Challenge #22 to include Tilda and her cat or dog, Magnolia-licious' Colour Challenge #7 to use black, white and one other colour and for Just Magnolia's Challenge #106 to use lace.

Another thank you for this next one. I will need a few by the end of the school year, so I'm making loads of thank you cards to choose from. This one is for Viva La Verve's Sketch #2 for May, Colour Create's Challenge #70 to use aqua, green, purple and white, for Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday's Challenge #14 to use selctive inking and for Free For All Challenge #64 to make a sentiment the focal point of the card.
