My new was 'stash' - PP that I had used!

This is a terrible photo but I only have my phone to hand, so I apologise now.

I have used some of the dies I had for Christmas as the new element, and the scalloped circles as the other two prompts.

It's a really simple card, but one to add to my collection if I need a quick card for someone.

2012 - 01 Laura & Jose birth shrunk.jpg

This is the card I have just created for the birth of two little Spanish boy twins - that is the new bit. The scallops and circles are the shaping around the pictures. This is possibly a stretch of the rules, but I hope you will forgive that as it is my first attempt at this challenge. The graphics came from Joanna Sheen (Baby Love), but I manipulated them to get the mirror images and the words in My Craft Studio, and then used Martha Stewart fine glitter and some gems to embellish it.

I'm going to try this one, a bit late to start I know, but will search out the blog etc, I have made 2 cards this year, but I doubt they'll fit in, will have to do the first two weeks in retrospect.
I have started to begrudge card making as I'd rather be scrapping but have rather a lot of bits I keep for cards so this might spur me on to be a little more enthusiastic about it.
ETA, just looked and it's not too late, we're still in week 1, hey, a good start then.
I was right my cards can't even be squeezed in sideways with those 3 prompts LOL
Best I make a new one.

Wow, seriously fab cards!

And so many different takes on the prompt, just loving what you are coming up with.

And Sarah I am more than happy for anyone to use my card example as a sketch, it's rather flattering in fact.

Great to see so many joining in, best get my skates on for getting Monday's prompt ready. LOL

And Phil and Trish welcome back for another year!

I have made my card for week 1 and will take a photo and upload tomorrow when the light is better.

I have actually made a couple more cards after being inspired by this challenge :-)

Absolutely no chance for me to take part this week and next week isn't looking too good either. I'm getting off to a great start aren't I?

Still, I enjoy checking to see all the beautiful creations that are appearing on this thread. Well done to those who have joined in so far.

I have made a card for the challenge, had to do one for my neice and what I had planned pretty much fitted in.

Will photograph tomorrow

Thanks Nat. Mum and I decided that cardmaking was much more interesting than housework ha ha

How is it that I find some papers think ooh, forgotten I had that, that will make a nice valentine's card, and I end up with a card for this challenge, which will be in the post tomorrow for a birthday LOL
Well I've clearly forgotten how to do a link but it's in the gallery and sort of here along with a load of martian gobbledegoook.
