Big post today!

I been busy crafting today, I've made a couple of cards, finished off another and made another bookmark!
This card is my entry for the Just Magnolia challenge which is 'pink and green' and I've used the sketch from Sketch Saturday.This is a first attempt card for me! Secret Crafter are asking for 'shaped cards' so I've attempted to make a circle card! I would like this to be considered for the 'DT Call' I drew around a plastic pot for the shape!!!and my last card for this post is my entry for Sketch and Stash where there is another yummy sketch to follow.and finally, I had a lovely comment left on my last post from Christine and she told me about her blog candy. Christine is very lucky with winning blog candy and has decided to have her own, her candy is fab! Would you believe she would like everyone who enters to make a bookmark, now I love the bookmark that I made in the previous post but have gone for a different style for my entry, it is similar to a small card (folded at the top) and you just slip the page you are reading in between the front and back of the bookmark if that makes sense!?! the image is just perfect for bookmarks, I made one in this style quite a while back which has never left the top of my desk as I like it so much lol!!!
You are allowed to enter up to 3 bookmarks, but I thought instead of making 3 myself and never doing anything with them, as I really don't read, unless it's gripping like Jade's book! I am entering the ones my daughters made at the weekend after seeing mine.
This one was made by Lillie aged 6 all I did was cut the paper and staple the ribbons on. and this one was done by Hollie aged 4, again all I did was cut the papers and staple the ribbon on, she cut the image out herself showing great control of a pair of scissors!!!That's it for now, back tomorrow!
