Morning all,
Two brilliant challenges at the same time addressed today.
My first inspiration is from Just us Girls with their colour scheme of Kraft, Orchid and White which I found really daunting. I found I had to get just the right amount of each colour to create harmony (to my eye.)
Here is their colours...
The other challenge is from Feeling Sketchy (#90) and here is the sketch...
Combining the two, I came up with this card, which I hope meets all the criteria...
Cheers,

Hi blogees,
Deadline for Feeling Sketchy #88 is today so I am "last minuting" this entry.
Here is the sketch and my card which is done by cutting apertures either side of the main panel to create latticework. I used 3 postcards with birds and wire images to slot in behind the lattice. I layered border punched patterned paper flower hedge and overlaid that with matching brown "fence" and matted "surprise" sentiment. Final touch is a metal bird charm and coordinating brad.
Hope you like it.
Keep up the great sketches. They keep me sane!

G'day once again and wow! I have been on a bit of a crafty binge lately what with the cooler weather starting to close in on Brisbane.
I've had a bit of a penchant for making cartoon toppers for my latest cards, so I thought I'd share them with you.
I really hope you like them.
If you do, I'll stick them up on dingoswildgreetingcards.com and you can order one.
Now, get under the doona (or for those of you who are "up-over" get into your warm weather gear) and enjoy your weekend!
G'Day
Thought I'd better 'splain why I haven't been blogging since February.
I have tried using this blog quite a few times since then and each time the photo upload just froze and little dots did dances through and over my screen.
I put this down to my browser being out of date (I was using W.E.10 - go figure)
I am now going to try and use Chrome so let's see how it goes...
Here's a couple of my cards to test out the upload...
Well, what do you know, held to ransom by a browser - tut tut!
Cheers

G'day
I have placed a selection of greeting cards on Ebay for the next 9 days for people to grab and have decided to give the $10 surprise gift to the first person to buy through that medium.
Feel free to use the contact seller option to ask any questions, make comments or have a card customised to specific occasions, colour schemes and sentiments/messages.
There are about 32 to choose from so have a good look.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Cheers

Hi all,
Another new thing I've been struggling with is the "blinkee"
You'll see it over there in the side bar on the right.
I'm told if you copy and paste the following code into your blog it will magically appear...

Please let me know if it works

Hi again, and thanks to Feeling Sketchy for the latest challenge #76.
It's a lovely layout and for a change I decided to do something a little bit different as a Christmas Card for my significant other's sister this year.
I can't wait to see what comments you have on this one!
A safe and happy season for you all...
