New My Time to Craft Challenge - Fantasy

There's a new challenge today on the My Time to Craft Challenge and this time our theme is 'fantasy'.

Have a look here on the challenge for all the details and lots of inspiration.

My card is one that I made a few weeks ago at a workshop with Lavinia Stamps.  We had an amazing day making backgrounds and stamping.  All I did at home to finish this off is to mat the image layer on to white and black card and add some gems.

The sentiment stamp I've used is called 'Fairy Dust is Like Love' and is available here on the Lavinia Stamps website.

The main image I've used is called 'See is Believing' and is available here.

New Ruby's Rainbow Challenge - Use Your Freebies/Prizes

We've got a new challenge today on the Ruby's Rainbow challenge blog and this time we want to see you 'use your freebies or prizes'.  For all the details about the challenge, have a look here on the challenge blog.

My card is something a bit different for me.  A couple of weeks back I went to a workshop hosted by the fabulous Lavinia Stamps.  One of the projects we did was based around a 'Scene-Scape' - these are printed brayered backgrounds - the one we used is here on their website.  I used torn paper to create the mountains at the bottom of the card and then used the Lavinia 'Birds' stamp.

When I got home I added a stamped verse from Inkylicious which was a Christmas present from the stamp club I go to.

I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges:
