Over already!

Yes its back to work tomorrow after what seems like such a short weekend, its flown by, yet neither of us have done much crafting at all. I got on my favourites pages which are ever so nicely organised in to the days that new challenges are set and found a few which looked wonderful, yet very difficult. We know, crafting hard?! We must sound mad, well have you ever tried to make a card using just one colour, no neither have we not until today, and that's down to the challenge set this week by C.R.A.F.T. with the theme of Monotone. We did however sneak a little bit of yellow in, but that's ok. There is also a challenge over at CES Challenges which is Chocolate Caramel, so we decided to combine the two and use the stated colour(s) for our monotone card.

The plain gold and brown paper used for matting and layering is from the box of papers purchased last week from the Papermill at the Lowry Outlet. The striped card is from one of the many trips to Kanban which is where I am off to on Saturday, Mum has to work though and she is rather gutted at the prospect of not being able to go. flowery paper, I think was from The Range ages ago, its just like the green used on and earlier post.

As far as I can remember some of the flowers used are from The Range as for the rest they are from Miss Fancy Pants Crafts, the best stall on Bury Market by miles, well it is in our opinion and probably many other crafters who know of it.

Tilda is coloured with Promarkers again, Mum is babysitting them for a few days, so hopefully if she gets some creations made this week I might be able to blog them. The colours used are:

Skin: Satin and Baby Pink
Sleeves and Lace: Buttercup
Collar: Mustard
Dress: Tan and Caramel
Hat: Buttercup and Mustard
Hair: Cocca and Chestnut
Shoes: Walnut and Caramel
Suitcase: Caramel, Pastel Beige and Gold

The card is also being entered in to a couple more challenges and these are:
Friday Sketchers again with a wonderful sketch for us all.
Dottie's World Anything Goes, and they have some beautiful Bobunny papers to win!
Our Creative Corner with a photo inspiration, which went perfectly with the browns we decided to use.
and finally last but not least, One Stop Craft Challenge again with a theme of Anything Goes but they also have a blog hop for us all, as its their 2nd blogiversary.

That's all for now, better get this up so I can get the link and enter all the lovely challenges. Even going to give the blog hop ago too, though I'm not sure what I'm meant to do.

Happy crafting :o)
