Big and bold male card

Think I might make three challenges with this card wow .... thats a first for me! Casology are looking for BOLD,and that has had me stumped until I remembered this James Bond download (took me longer to cut it out than print it!!) the boy in the sentiment to me is big and bold and of course James Bond is the ultimate bold hero,hope I'm not stretching it here :). Then this week both the Crafty Cardmakers and more and Less is More are looking for a masculine theme and so 3 challenges with one card! Hope you all have a lovely weekend too and thanks for looking x

money wallet

I was asked to make a money wallet, for someone at the work's grandson and this is what I came up with.... the teddy can be pulled along by the ribbon (don't ask why I did that because its a bit like a chocolate teapot useless on a money wallet!! hee he ) Thanks for looking x p.s anyone else having problems with blogger when I add a pic all I get is gooblygook though it comes ok on the blog and it wont let me paragraph or set spaces ..weird! x

Colour Blocks

What a truly driecht and miserable day here in the North east of Scotland I was out earlier and came back like a drowned rat and still haven't got the heat up yet....but never mind its the perfect day to take part in some challenges:-) I made a card for my friends son who will be 21 this Tuesday, and with the off cuts I made one for the challenge over at Cas-ual Friday.They are asking for colour blocks,and this is my take on it.Think I can also enter it into the Cas.ology challenge as their cue card is for CONTRAST and the colour panel is definitely a contrast to the rest of the white card -I hope anyway!....Think it's going to be destined for another friends son who has a 17th birthday next month feel this is definitely a male card this one! I find I enjoy making male cards as you can get away with such bold colours and this is my favourite colour combo of red and Island indigo and lucky limeade from SU.The sentiment is also from SU. Enjoy what's left of your weekend off to have a peek at some of your blogs x

New

(I am attempting to use my Christmas present of a tablet to post this so please bear with me,computer literate I am not!) I think I might be pushing it here, but when I saw the challenge at Addicted to CAS ,I just happened to be making a card for my SIL who will be 60 this week,and the first thing I thought of was that my SIL was heading into a NEW decade and a NEW phase in her life as she officially retires... I made the card using pool party for the ;number 60 and the flourish which is from a retired Christmas Set of SU using Baja breeze ink. The flowers are punched and hand finished at the centres with a fine black pen and a gem.Finally the sentiment is also from SU. (The ribbon bow is there because I confess that I left an inky mark and needed to hide it oops).

Awesome!

Well that is Christmas over for another year :-(

but hope that a you all had a good one! 

If there is one thing I love is big sentiments and this one from Uniko Studio is perfect for a male card ,had intended to add stars on the white but it just looked too cluttered so decided to let the sentiment say it all!!
Saying that it reminded me that this weeks challenge at Less is More is to pick a past challenge and I thought I would join in with week 47 -one word but after searching for it on their blog couldnt find it except in their past challenge list,so just to be safe iI thought it would also fit in with their week 79 the colour challenge using blue and green.
 The cardstock is from SU lucky limeade and island indigo as is the sentiment using SU markers
Thank you for taking the time to look . x

Black background

Dark background with a splash of colour(s)

When I looked at the Less is More site yesterday I knew what I wanted to do - another male card of course , and in RL it looks just as I wanted but the photo makes it appear duller! Grrr spent more trying to get a true photo then making it.....But never mind, I used  navy and red cardstock and the stars are lucky limeade.I layered the stars up to make them stand out a bit more and  then added a tiny bit of bling to them. The sentiment is from Uniko Studio isn't it just brill,love big sentiments!

Thanks for looking ...just about to pop over and have a look at everyone elses creations x

Black

What a really miserable day here in Aberdeen the rain is really battering against the window as I type,just the perfect day to hide away and make some cards! 

I made this one for my Goddaughter who will be 23 soon .I realise that the paper bow isn't very clear in the top picture hopefully the second photo shows it better. I made it for the Casology  challenge their cue card  says BLACK. 

I used Pink Petticoat digi pinstripe paper , SU heart,and the sentiment and sparkles are from my stash .

Now off to have a little browse around blogland as I am lucky enough to have won the bonus ball in my work (we pick numbers and pay each week for them, then when the bonus ball is drawn on Saturday nights  lottery if you have that number then you win the pot )but I won a rollover week and so won the princely sum of £64!  so off to see which catches my eye and treat myself.

Hope you all have a great weekend and thanks for looking x
