WHOOPY
I was lucky enough to win November card challenge over at the Tanda Stamp Craft Forum.

I was spoilt for chice as to which sheet of stamps to choose, I chose medieval as I don't have any simular designs to these and I have several other sets which I love and they stamp beautifully!
To my amazement I didn't just receive a stamp sheet of my choice but a stash and I mean a stash of other goodies YIPEE!! It is a sumptuous and brilliant prize

This Thursday - Challenge 21 Marvelous Metallics and Theme Thursday

This weeks challenge was metal,as always great DT and prize... on an earlier challenge we were encoraged to take inspiration from blogs and I took tine to look at the talented Rosie's blog - check it out here , in particular her metal art. I had also seen on the Tanda forum a link to The Scrapbook Lounge anither great site in particular this link. So I prepared the can and tried various mediums/ punches / embossing tools and initially created a pretty frame which I can use in a future project...
FRAME


However the waste from the frame is a smidge smaller than an ATC so I decided to decorate it and use it as an ATC! This fits with this weeks Theme thursday challenge too..
