    2015 Card Challenge - November

    Hi Everyone!

    Instead of being late, the prompts are actually up early on my blog! Wonder of wonders!

    With it being November, they've taken on a more wintry/Christmas-oriented theme, but as ever the sketch and colours lend themselves to any theme at all. Even the Pinspiration photo has aspects that could be applied to birthday cards, etc. Shaker cards in particular are very popular right now, so if nothing else how about giving that a go?

    As always the info about this challenge can be found here in the January post.

    Hope you all have fun playing with this selection!

    I've posted some more info and hints for the prompts here on my blog.

    November

    This is a card I have made for my sister in laws birthday.
    The background pp and the spotty banner paper look more Aqua in real life!

    Oooh that's lovely Ellie - nice use of that lacy border in the background too.

    I've actually managed to finally make a card for this challenge, I tackled the sketch first and will see if I can progress onto the colours next!

    Lovely card Ellie! I love the background paper it looks so luxurious.

    What a brilliant take on the sketch Nat! I also love your background paper. You can tell I have an eye for these background papers, I often feel they can make or break a card and I do love pretty floral backgrounds, which both yours and Ellie's have. Those little hearts are such a sweet touch ( no pun intended).

    I love your interpretations of sketches Nat, lovely card and sentiment !

    I wish I was good with patterned paper backgrounds.
    I'm really struggling this year to be inspired with my card making, I need some mojo !!

    I think that we all need to be inspired from time to time Alison.
    I never have an idea of what I'm going to do, until I just mess about
    with bits of paper, and then it just comes together.
    Your mojo will return, I'm sure.

    Thanks ladies. I have to say I find it very difficult to make a card without any pp on it! I think it's mainly due to the fact I have so much paper amassed over all these years that I feel rather guilty not using it! lol
    I don't think I will ever run low on paper.
    Hoping to get a card made that features the colours from the colour prompt next, but we'll see!

    Absolutely lovely, Nat. Love the corrugated Christmas tree and the grey board background paper.
