Twinkling H20's and a Pink Piggy

I was very excited this morning to see that the technique challenge involved Twinkling H20's. These are shimmery watercolours which come in little cakes. Guess what? I bought them last year and have NEVER USED THEM! Shock! So what a great excuse to get them out. The challenge was to use pink (in appreciation of Breast Cancer Awareness Month). I found my little pink piggy from 'Very Punny' which was a sale-a-bration set from Feb '07 and I painted her in some Twinkling H20's. I also took a close up photo to show you the shimmer ... it's so pretty in real life!

Cardstock : Very Vanilla, Choc Chip, Pretty in Pink

An Oldie but a Goodie

Morning all! I pulled out one of my original SU stamp sets for today's Limited Supply challenge over on SCS. It's A Tree for all Seasons and it's been around a long time! I love it though and have not shown it much love recently!

The LSC was quite strict ... use eyelets, ribbon and one sheet of designer paper ... no other embellies! We also had to add a touch of blue. I chose jumbo pewter eyelets, Michael's ribbon, and a piece of scrap So Saffron DP. Easy Peasy!
