Congratulations - For the one out with flying colours.

Hi all. This week's CTS # 52 is up with a simple sketch, looking at which I knew what I'll be doing right away. Here is my take on it.
I have painted the wide strip of paper in patches with 4 PTI inks, diluted in water - Simply Chartreuse, Pure Poppy, Hawaiian shores, and Lemon Tart. These colours smudged off so well. Then I have used a memory box die cut for the circles background and for the 'Congratulations' banner I have used tilted banners die cut from Simon Says Stamp.
Do join the fun and play along here @ CTS # 52
Hope you liked my card. Your opinion about the card matters. Thanks for peeking in.

Thanks - Cath

Hi all. I couldn't believe the news that it will be the last post from her last Friday. I have been busy last fortnight with job and job hunting, and this morning when I checked the blog feeds, I was saddened by the news. I had to make a card to thank Cath for all the inspiration she has shared over the years. Here is the card I made for our 'moxie fab' Cath.


For making this card I had taken inspiration from the colorQ challenge # 213. I used sponge daubers to ink the negative space, of a stencil from momenta, with the colours from the challenge.


Hope you liked the card. Your opinion about the card matters. Thank you.
