Designers Choice Challenge over at The House that Stamps Built.

Over at The House that Stamps Built one of the challenges is a 
Designers Choice from Rock Star Joyce Morien.
She has challenged us to make a card with bright colours and vibrant prints. 
I don't know if my card is vibrant enough but the colours are bright. For the vibrant bit I decided to add  bright pink gemstones.
It is a fairly simple card with layers of white and different coloured designer paper.
I added bright ribbon and gemstones cut the corners of part of the card and cut out a Cherry Lynn Butterfly. Also added a punched piece of paper with a MS Punch.
The sentiment is from Gina K using distress ink and ran over it with a gold sakura pen for a little shine.

The House that Stamps Built Sketch Challenge.

This week I made a card for the latest sketch challenge over at 
The House that Stamps Built.
 It wasn't till I came here to add it and looked at my last sketch challenge that I saw that I have made a card very similar so for now I am going to upload it and then make another one. I can't believe I have done this.
Obviously I like this new Marianne Die because I have made several using this lovely Lady Silhouette.
