RSD - Progressive Challenge Team B ....

......  Hello!!!  It's time for Team B to share with you our projects for our new Progressive Challenge.  This time, as well as using a Rick St Dennis image, we have a theme for you to create a SPRING/EASTER project.  I've made a clean, simple and pretty Easter card:

Stamps: Rick St Dennis Digi - Easter Turtle; Uniko Studio - Flower Power #4
Inks: Stampin' Up! - Wisteria Wonder, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Strawberry Slush, Costal Cabana, Certainly Celery; Memento - Tuxedo Black
Accessories: White Lustre Card; SU DP - Calypso Coral; Copic Markers; Wink of Stella - Clear

I've used another of Rick's wonderful turtles - this one, Easter Turtle, is a real cutie and she's such fun to colour.   I used the layout from this week's CAS Colours & Sketches - CASC&S#115 but I have flipped it to work with my image.  The colours are from ShowCASE Your Style - SYSC#10.  I printed the turtle on white card, colour her with Copic markers and then cut her out.  I added some sparkle to her hat, her shell, her nails and the Easter eggs.  I stamped a couple of tall flowers in the background and created the horizontal strip by stamping little petals in lots of colours.  I finished the front with a simple Easter greeting.  On the inside I cut a mat layer of coral design paper and on the white panel stamped a greeting and added lots of pastel flowers.

There are lots of wonderful spring and Easter images in Rick's Zibbet and Esty shops - so pop along and find something to play along with our Progressive Challenge.  We look forward to seeing what you create, add your links to our special Progressive Challenge page here.  Have fun!

USC - Birthdays part II ....

... Hello and Good Morning!!  It's time for a quick reminder about out challenge at Uniko Studio - USC#18.  We want you to make birthday cards and continue the birthday celebration theme - you've got plenty of time to join in.  Here's my card:

Stamps: Uniko Stuido - The Hands of Time, Simply Said Birthday
Inks: Stampin' Up! - Peach Parfait, Wisteria Wonder, Pool Party, Certainly Celery; Memento - Tuxedo Black
Accessories: White Lustre Card; SU Card - Pool Party; Sequins

I made a clean, simple and pretty birthday card.  The colours are from this week's Colour Q - cQc#281 challenge and I'm also submitting to a new challenge that I've recently found, ShowCASe Your Style - SYSC#9 where they have a birthday theme.  I stamped a number of the images from The Hands of Time set around the edge of the card, added a sentiment at the top and finished the front by adding some sequins which echo the stamped colours.  On the inside I cut a mat layer of aqua card and on the white panel stamped a greeting and some more doilies.

Check out the Uniko Studio blog to see some more inspiration cards from the team.  You've got until Friday 6th March to join in.  Don't forget you don't have to use Uniko Studio stamps on your card, although we do like it if you do!  There are prizes too - the DT will choose a winner who will get a £20 gift voucher for Uniko Studios plus be invited to be a Guest Designer for our next challenge.  We also pick at Top 3 and all will get a £5 gift voucher for the Uniko Studio shop. 

That's all for now - have fun!!  See you soon.
