CD Sunday Plus - Challenge #186 - hosted by Carol (moi)

 It is a long, long time since I hosted a challenge - but here I am - and very pleased to be here.  I hope that there will be many entries from which I can choose my Top 3.  I am so looking forward to being more involved.

Firstly though - here is my team card for your delectation:

The stitch pattern for this card is by Linzoos - pattern no: R95.   The yellow flowers are from 'Favourite Flowers' - die cuts by Carnation Crafts.  Carnation has called this flower - Wildflower - but it does look a bit like a buttercup.

I made this birthday card for my hairdresser - Amanda - it is her birthday on the 29th June and she has been my hairdresser for more years than I can remember - about 30!!

Happy Birthday Amanda.

CD Sunday Plus - Challenge #185 - hosted by Jocelyn

Good morning on this wet Sunday.  We seem to be going from hot and dry to wet and chilly almost on a daily basis.  But I have a 'summery' card for you.  I love these decoupaged teacups showing so many lovely colourful flowers and a butterfly or two.  

The stitch pattern (D17) is by Linzoos and I used variegated thread to compliment the decoupage.  I made the card for a forum friend back in April and she did like it I am glad to say.

I am still making progress and have started having physiotherapy sessions at home.  I am also pleased to say that all being well I will hostess the Challenge for #186  - as planned.  I am looking forward to increasing my involvement. 

I also look forward to visiting your entries and discovering new ideas, styles and must have patterns and equipment.

Please take care of yourselves.

Hugs

Carol
