ADDINKTIVE DESIGNS

Just popping in for a quick post with a cute little project to say a fond farewell to SALE-A-BRATION 2014 .  We had a beautiful and varied selection of free product to choose from (as always) and I think that the top two for me were the gorgeous Sweet Sorbet DSP and Banner Punch .       My brother is really into restoring Vintage Caravans (campers) and I bought a book for him today called, VANTASTIC - Retro Caravan Holidays in the Modern World by Kate Ulman, which inspired this bit of Punch Art on my Scalloped Tag Easel Card .

Thanks so much for stopping by, ...

It's been ages since I ventured into my craft room to stamp.  I was in the middle of cleaning and tidying the kitchen drawers but got distracted by the arrival of some pre-order goodies.  I couldn't believe that my order only took 2 days to arrive.  That must be some sort of record for delivery to Tassie. I honestly didn't know where to begin so I went looking for a couple of challenges to help give me a 'kick start'.  The Colour challenge at CCMC looked like fun and I always love the sketches at Mojo Monday (even though I don't get a chance to join in very often).  So I put the two together and came up with this CAS card - Hey There! for CCMC and Mojo Monday   Create with Connie and Mary Colour Challenge #284 & Mojo Monday #327 & ... then I discovered that Addicted to CAS had a challenge with the...
