Aged to Perfection

It's thanks this week at CD Sunday Challenge to Sue B for choosing our challenge which is Aged to Perfection, now of course this is once again left to your imagination, for there are a few things which do get better with age. However, the moment I saw the makings of this card on The Best of La Pache 2010 CD, I wanted to make a card. I have kept it fairly simple from printing it out for I think the the way the couple are with each other tells their story. I stamped Congratulations onto a banner stamp, and added a printed sentiment, On Your Special Day. I also used a sheet of pale lilac card and purple card printed out from Sheena Douglas Paint Fusion CD, to mat and layer the main image. Have fun everyone looking forward to visiting you, during the next week. 

Layer It Up - CD Challenges

Sundays do come around very fast these days, but I do enjoy the beginning of a new challenge at              CD Sunday Challenges for the week ahead. This week we are asking for Layer It Up. Now when I first saw the title, I thought, right do I layer up the background with several backing papers, and a topper or do I go for an --age, so many to choose, decoupage, pyramage, invertage, twisted pyramage, I suppose you can call me an old fashioned girl, I went with decoupage from Sheena Douglass  CD Paint Fusion. Now I know why, what I used to call intricate cutting is now fashionably called 'Fussy Cutting'. The greeting is a favourite stand by, the labels are from a new set recently purchased at a craft event. I look forward to seeing what you have chosen to layer up ladies (gents).
