Sketch challenge

It's been quite stressful and hectic at work these days.  So I decided to take a break tonight.... i.e. making some card.. of course, I did some chores too! :(

I made this card fairly quickly, because I have the recipient in mind, and then I thought of the "cupcake" paper I have.  Looking for challenges to participate, I found the Freshly Made Sketches.  Excuse the quality of photo -- the room is a little dark and i'm using my phone to take it, so that I can guarantee to make it to the challenge. :P 

Bring on the Bling

I recently was trying to find a better way to take photos with the cards I've made.  I think it does make a difference if the lighting and background is right.  Hopefully I can find the best spot to take photos in my home.... if I'm not trying to rush in some card challenge and need to take it with my cell phone. :) 

I'm participating in 2 card challenges:
1) Allsorts challenge - Bring the Bling 
I got that purple ribbon/garland during last Christmas.  Just love it!  Regret that I didn't get it for other colors! 

2) 365 cards challenge - make it a white space card with minimal decoration on top. Use only 1/3 or less of the card space

I better brush off the glitter on the unwanted places before giving it out.  I'm new to glitter.  If someone has tips on how to make the glitter sticks better, please leave me a comment!!  I'm using glue pad to stamp.   

Stamp a background

Stamping the background of the card isn't something I do very often, because I found it hard sometimes to make it look good.  I'm playing along with the 365 cards challenge, I hope my attempt isn't too bad.  I've stamped and embossed it.  It's quite fun to stamp randomly onto the card. :P  

Rock your style

I'm participating in 365cards challenge --"rock your style". My style has been clean and simple.  I particularly adore cards with few elements in the cards yet still look fabulous.

Here is my card:

I recently have developed the love of glitters , may also be because of christmas is coming. :)

Thanks for visiting.
