Hi, Sue, a brand new sketch and a beautiful interpretation of it! Love it! Yep, am a member of Let's Scrap and a long-time follower of your blog. One of the techniques I like (and don't use often enough) is the peek-a-book technique, that of hiding something just behind something else! Thanks for the chance to win your great giveaway!!
ReplyDeleteHi Kaye, thank you. I have pm's you hopefully in time xx
Deletelovely card, I do not have a special technique i love them all. I love doing Layouts.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!!
Rachelle
Love your sample card and the colors! I am a member at LS and now a follower of your blog! I dont really have a fave technique as of yet, there asre just sooo many different ones out there!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you used! I think my fave thing to do right now is use my Cri-Kit embosser with the metal (like on my sample card) I enjoy making my own embellies!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!
Mindi
Thank you for the awesome job you have done organising such a HUGE event, we all really appreciate yours, Betty's and Debby's tireless work!
DeleteThanks so much for hosting the Let's Scrap blog hop. I love the card you made, the flower and butterfly are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I have a favorite technique, but I do like to distress the edges of my papers.
By the way the terrible weather finally cleared here and I was able to get up town and buy some of the tape to use for your amazing tutorial. Hopefully I will get a chance to use it on one of the cards I make.
look forward to seeing all your fabulous tissue tape flowers :)
DeleteSo excited that the blog has finally started, being in Australia, I am like 15 hours ahead of you girls and have been waiting an extra day.. now I wake up this morning bright and early and can FINALLY start playing with.. yipeee... thank you for all the hard work.. you girls are doing a great job ! I just love your example card and Debby has been doing a great job on the card sketches.. wow, how busy is she !!!
ReplyDeleteHave been a member of Let's Scrap forever and am a member of your blog (which is awesome) ! (lol) AND will be making a card soon and will post link here.
My favorite technique would have to be making my own flowers.. there are so many different varieties out there that you cannot get bored.. love paper flowers.. and you can custom them as you wish..
Hugs, Michelle van Wyk
Hi Michelle, hey a fellow Aussie.... oi oi oi :)
DeleteWhat fun! Love your card Sue! have been a follower of your blog for long time, love your work, just so inspiring and my fav technique would have to be paper flowers, big fan of Donna Salazar spellbinder dies, love love love 'em.
ReplyDeleteHi Kelsey, thank you and I also love Donna's amazing work! Definitely one of my scrappin idols!

ReplyDeleteGreat card, Sue! I'm happy to now be a follower of your blog. At the moment I am loving using my Silhouette machine for titles and embellishments
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card Sue. I'm a new follower and member of LS. I love to ink the edges of my papers on cards on my layouts. I like the dimension it adds to my project.
ReplyDeleteInking my edges and using Cricut cuts on my pages.

Pretty card! I've been a member of LS, and I've joined your blog =) Thanks for being a fellow host...this will be such a fun hop! My fave technique is nothing new or fancy...I just love edge distressing =)
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower, and a member of Let's Scrap as you know. Thanks for hosting a stop on the hop. My favorite technique? How about using border punches, I seem to do that on so many of my projects, and I have lots of them.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. Its my first time visit here and I love it. I have become a follower here. Loving your sketch for the blog hop and your take on it is gorgeous, not to speak of the yummy candy. My favourite technique in cardmaking is iris folding and in scrapbooking it is combining different {Doing Life} templates to incorporate lots of photos onto a double page layout.
