A late post for two reasons we has a bit of a situation needing a plumber! I was stood at the sink running the tap and wondering why the water was splashing my feet(good job I wear flip flops) the waste pipe under the sink had corroded and come away and the water was just running into the cupboard below -anyway all fixed now!!!
The second reason was I have found a new challenge blog-well new to me- Daring Cardmakers -and the challenge finishes soon so couldn't wait until tomorrow.
Another challenge asked for a slimline card which fitted my stamp nicely so had a play.
I stamped the thistle feom AALL and Create onto a book page,inked the edges,matted onto black card for strength and glued onto coruggated card packaging with 3-D foam pads.
I had stamped text on the coruggated card,text onto actual card with distress ink and distress ink through a Creative Expressions stencil-the little heart is from Stampin Up and I drew round the word love with a fineliner pen.

Morning and we have a new ATG/In The Garden challenge today at 613 Avenue Create and I made another Mini album/trifold card,now the last one took a day this one slightly a lot longer maybe a week? kept changing my mind lol.
The butterflies on the front was from a craft mag freebie set and stamped onto leftover oddments of smooshed paper then fusst cut-the little wooden Bees and Ladybirds were from Amazon.
P.papers from stash and so was ribbon-couldn't decide whether to use white or pale green so used both!
The stamps were a mixture of Chocolate Baroque,Pink Frog and AALL and Create coloured with promarkers and added glossy accents.
Border stamp from Crafters Companion-leaf dies from The Works and I paper pieced the little snails with snippets of stamped paper.Background stencil from That's Crafty.
