The one time I didn't check Daring cardmakers blog only to find the challenge is an Oriental card not using red and black, it was to late because I had already paper pieced my Oriental girl but I did use Sketch Saturday sketch and the Basic Grey Challenge was to use two different ranges which I have the green background is Archaic and the rest is Boxer. The lovely sweet Oriental girl is another Dream2stamp and she comes has a pair.
Now the Penny Black challenge was for Romance, so I thought this pair of geese would be nice a quick card to make till I decided I wanted the scenery background stamp from Alota stamps to be behind them and because I decided it would be Anniversary card for hubby I needed to find some more masculine papers then I put flowers on it, so its not all that masculine after all. I used the Ismaki sketch because I needed help because its a large card. The sentiment was done on the PC, its really corny but its out song, it was playing on the radio when we first met.And a big Thank you to Joey for this marvellous award, she not feeling very well at the mo, nasty tooth abcess hope it gets better soon.
Its a good job DD is not going to work today, the Pub where she is assistant manager is on the river and its about to burst it banks.
Oh these are both beautiful I love the the chinese girl and the papers work perfectly,the little geese look great sat in front of thier scene 2 gorgeous cards.Sue :o)
