A Spoon Full of Sugar - Challenge 6 "CIRCLES"

Don't forget to check out my below post for Blog Candy!


Thank you to everyone who entered a card into our challenge last week over at "A Spoon Full of Sugar". It has been so lovely to visit your blogs and see all your wonderful creations.

All you have to do this week is make a card with a circle somewhere in the design. It could be on the paper, greeting or whatever else you can think of. Remember you need to use either a Sugar Nellie, Rachelle Anne Miller or Hanglar stamp.

We have some fantastic blog candy to send one randomly chosen winner this week, which Bryony from Silly Monkey Crafts has kindly donated. Pop over to her store as she has a fantastic range stamps including High Hopes, Rachelle Anne Miller and Lizzie Anne Designs. Silly Monkey's are also expecting the Sarah Kay stamps very soon.



This is just a quick card from me this week as I am still struggling to find time to work on other projects. Now I can say I have made my first Christmas card which is for my Niece.

Card detail:
Stamp: Maggie the Christmas Fairy
Medium: Prismacolour, Sansodor & Paper stumps, Sakura stardust pen, Fruit Punch Stickles and Mint Ice Stickles.
Paper: From a Christmas pack I bought from The Range.
Embellishments: ribbon
Equipment: Wizard Machine, Nestabilities, Cricut Expression and Zooballoo Cartridge


AWARD
