My moment in the Spotlight!

Guess what? my card for Raspberry Suite Color Challenge on Dawn McVey’s blog made the Spotlight!  That means it made the top 15 cards picked to be highlighted in this challenge.  I’ve only entered this challenge a few times so I’m very excited!  Thankyou to everyone who has taken the time to congratulate me!  You can see the card I entered here,  and go here to look at the spotlight and have a look at everyone’s cards-they’re well worth it!

The other cool thing about today is that my order from Scrapbook.com came today, with lots of goodies to try!  Here’s my loot:

There’s some more Spellbinders dies, as well as the embossing mat so now I can make that pretty little border, another border punch, and a great magazine.  Can’t wait to get stuck into it!

Oh, I’ve also got a couple more cards to show that I finished this afternoon:

For this one I used the new Loire Valley range from Kaisercraft, with plenty of machine stitching and filing around the edges.  The stamp is from Papertrey and the buttons vintage from my Nanny’s jar .

Flamingoes anyone?  How cute are these motifs on the new Pina Colada range from Kaisercraft?  I used black card stock and ribbon to contrast the bright colours, and I made the chipboard disc from a motif cut from the papers, which I attached to a scalloped circle cut with my Cuttlebug.  The greeting is a stamp from Papertrey Ink, and I’ve added some machine stitching.  Okay, that’s all I’ve got at the moment so thanks for stopping by,
