The challenge over on the Crafter's Companion Monthly Challenge blog this month has the above sketch to use. I decided to use the sketch to see if I can make my mojo come back. I have used the new SWALK range of stamps from Crafter's Companion and the coordinating cd to make the following card.

Wow I'm so excited. That time has come for our first challenge over on Just Inspirational Challenges. This weeks challenge involves using the following sketch along with a theme of Love e.g. a Wedding, anniversary or card for a loved one. The design team have pulled out all the stops this time and created some wonderful cards!!! Here's the sketch: Here is my card. I made this for a dear colleagues 25th Wedding Anniversary. I was delighted with how it has turned out and she loved it too which is even better. The backing papers are from my Barely Mine Design Extreme CD. I have used 3 different designs, all colour coordinating. I then stamped and coloured my magnolia images using copics. I cut a circle matt using my cuttlebug and nesties for the Chocolate Heart Box. The Longing Tilda stamp was then placed as if she is resting on the box. I have added silver glitter detail to the bow and a silver 25 peel off too. I added some stickles glitter to the 'chocolates'
