***Checks ***

 Hello everyone,

I'm here to tell you about our new fortnightly challenge at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #540

where our lovely team mate Pat has chosen the theme 

"Check it Out"

so show us your checks, plaids and/or tartans.

No colouring for me today just some fun time with my new dies from Memory Box
This is not a usual colour combo for Christmas but really is on trend this year and I quite like it.
I am a fan of MacKenzie Childs pottery and this reminds me of their Courtly Check.
I pulled out my much loved G45 papers and found this wonderful black and cream check and knew I had to cut into it.  The little acorn is new from MB..a little pesky to assemble but well worth the effort I think.  I also have the larger acorn die set that I will show sometime later this month.  Once again I have used the Stampin-Up sweater embossing folder on the background.

I would like to enter the following challenges:

I'm here today to tell you it's time for a new challenge at

I've coloured with Copics a digital stamp called Aurora Pandemic from TheEastWind. The sentiment has been stamped with versamark, white embossing powder added and heat embossed, cut using an MFT die.   This card is for one of my granddaughters.

***Couldn't help it**

 Hello folks,

Are you ready for the weekend?   

Can't say that I am as all days run together now.  

We are in a stay-at-home mandate again...sure hope this helps bring the numbers down. 

Today's card is one I created because the image made me smile. 
 As most of us are in "Spring cleaning" mode I thought this snarky little gal 
has come up with all the answers.  Pretty cas design, coloured with Copics.

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Clever Dexter Challenge #16 - April

Creations in Pink Challenge #32 - April 15

Thanks for visiting today.

hugs,

Pat K xx
