Calendar 2009 September

Here is the September page of my calendar, its been on the back burner for a while as other things have taken priority, but I'm gradually getting there!
I've started to make the colours more autumnal, although it looks pink in the picture its actually more red and orangey than pink. I've seen the ribbon threading thing on other cards and thought I'd give it a go.*Penny Black For A Spin coloured with Whispers pens
*Papers from Shabby Princess
*Ribbon from Chatterbox
*Eyelets and brad from stash
*Flowers from Prima and papermania

Papertake challenge chocolate wrapper

This is my entry for the Papertake Challenge Katharina's sketch #12. Its also a holder/wrapper/presentation wallet for a big bar of chocolate that I gave to my mum. Papers are from Summertime Designs Energy kit.

Here are the inside

and the side view of the holder.

It was very easy to make, just a piece of A4 card scored and folded to fit the chocolate bar with some pieces of card at the side to hold it in place. Thanks for looking x

Penny Black For a Spin...

I used my new Penny Black stamp that my mum bought me to make a card for my docrafts image swap partner. I think I might have over embellished it a bit but I love detail on cards and don't do minimal, what do you think?I used whisper pens to colour the image. The flowers are made from templates and inspiration from Scrap This! I glittered the edge of the nesties and 3D'd the image on foam pads, I also glossed over the tyres. The papers are from Summertime Designs energy kit. I've also added a little pocket in the inside to put the stamped images into.
