Had to use my favourite Puss cat image for this challenge from JS Pamela West CD. I used the two backing papers from the CD too. The darker one as a background and the lighter one I pasted on to card and cut out with a Sizzix big die, Fanciful Album. The ribbon and metal sentiment are from my stash.
Such a lovely photo of Janet's new puppies I could not resist doing a scrapbook page and with her permission blogging it for you to see. I used Pam Lefors new digikit "Fashionably Fall" and worked in Craft Artist. Aren't they sweet with those huge ears!
Over at Rainbow Lady's this week we are asking you to do spooky. I hope to inspire you to join in with this 8 by 8 card made using the elements of the Serif digikit" Spooktacular". I designed my card in Craft Artist.
Just received my Paddington Bear in London CD so thought I would use it to go Trick and Treating at the Palace! I created the design for this A5 card in Craft Artist. 
I just love Crafty Ann's butterflies, this one is a gold one printed onto vellum. I cut it out and added it to a card that I put through a Sizzix embossing folder called "Butterfly migration". I went over this lightly with a Brilliance ink gold.
As I was stamp hunting for this challenge I came across the wheel of fortune which made me think of gambling then cards. Hence my Queen of Hearts and her bad Knave! I went with the red and black theme of the cards distressing half the tag with Fired Brick and the other half with Black Soot. I used a torn piece of paper to get the wavy line where the two colours meet. I have the good and the bad, sorry about the ugly. Thanks for taking a look, all your comments are much appreciated.
In Cynthia's honour a silver anniversary card. The background papers and embellishments, except for the butterflies, are Pam Lefors "Always In My Heart" and the gorgeous silver butterflies are from Crafty Ann. I put the design together in Craft Artist and made a 6 by 6 card.
Had JS Faye Whittaker CD for my birthday and just love this scene of the children visiting London, so London is my destination for this around the world challenge. I made a DL easel card using the backing paper which matches the topper on the card base. Thank you for taking a look any comments you leave are much appreciated.
Think my stamps this week are originally from Creative Expression but bought them as individual stamps on a bargain stall at Ally Pally. I stamped and embossed the rails with clear ep in the background then distressed the tag with Weathered Wood and Ant. Linen DI. The locomotive was stamped with black Stazon and embossed with clear ep. I stamped the loco number randomly round the tag. The ticket collector and loco number were stamped and cut out, distressed then added as shown. Thanks for taking a look, all your comments are greatly appreciated.
I used "Oak Leaves" by Chapel Road stamps for this square card. I stamped the background with a number of distress inks, Antique linen, Forest Moss, Aged Mahogany and Wild Honey. The leaves were cut with a TH die from old book pages and inked up.
My square card was made using the CD Cheers from Serif and created in Craft Artist.
My tag this week was inspired by the phrase I see the moon the moon sees me, I know it is a song but do not remember the rest. I used the page of a book which I painted with gesso for my background. The images are stamped in Archival black. The moon is a stamp by Seascapes and the lady a stamp by Indigo Blu. I added the phrase using my Xyron design runner. Thanks for coming to take a look, any comments you leave are much appreciated.
Inspiration for this challenge is the Slade song "Merry Christmas Everyone" and in particular the line "Are you hanging up your stocking on your wall?". Inspiration too from Ann's metallics. I have used a gold backing paper overlaid with the red Poinsettia paper as my background. In MCS I added the gold garland and used a digital punch to create two stockings using the same gold paper. The sentiment is the line from the song.
This week Rainbow Lady's Challenge is once again sponsored by the very generous Joanne Sheen. I have used an image from her "Enchanted Dreams" CD for my topper, adding just a touch of glitter and a peel off. The backing paper is printed from a Serif kit "Sweet Dreams" and I cut a border along the bottom with my new Martha Stewart punch and then mounted it on silver mirror card. I added a strip of silver mesh from my stash and some rub on letters to spell "dream".
