Another inspired by me Ampersand card

Another member of UKS (crafty betsy) was also inspired by my Ampersand wedding card, so she made this one of her own, didn't she do a great job?, and i must say i'm loving seeing these different versions of my original design.

Don't forget if you make one too, let me know so i can post a picture of it on here.

BBTB Ampersand contest

This is my entry for the contest over at BBTB. The criteria for the contest was to make a project using the Ampersand (the 'and' sign) from either George or Plantin Schoolbook. I used the one from Plantin Schoolbook. I welded two together using CDS to make the card base, and also used Plantin Schoolbook for the Mr and Mrs, which i also welded on the CDS. All the other cuts are from the Wedding solutions cart, except the scalloped oval tag and oval tag on the box, which are from Alphalicious.

This is the box i made for my card.

Hallmark message board challenges

Here are the cards i made for the 2nd and 3rd challenges on Hallmark message board. I love challenges and these two were so much fun!

Here's the card Sandie, (a member of the 'Cricut common room' social group on UKScrappers) has made, she said she was inspired by my Ampersand wedding card, didn't she do a great job?, i just love the colours she's used.

Wow, what a morning!!!

I'm on a real high this morning, i've just found out my BBTB Ampersand wedding card contest entry won!, and i've also been featured on Inspirational!!! Thank you Julie, I feel so honored to be featured amongst some of the worlds most talented crafters. Can today get any better?

My challenge

This is the card i made for the challenge that i set over on the Hallmarkscrapbook message board. The challenge is to use either or both of the cats that can be found on the Paper Dolls cart. I just giggled to myself all the time i was making it, i hope it raises a few smiles.

I have also been contacted this week by another UKS member to show me the card she made, inspired by my ampersand wedding card, everyone seems to love these cards, i've had so many lovely comments about them, and i'm so pleased to have inspired so many to make one. Check out Annette's card on her blog here. Hasn't she done a beautiful job?

Hallmark MB weekly challenge 4

Here's the card i made for the 4th weekly challenge on the Hallmark message board. The challenge was to use the flower from the George and basic shapes cart.

Next are more ampersand cards i've made, a different one for a wedding and one baby girl card, i'm loving making these cards so much. I've been told they are so effective and original.
