52 Cards Challenge 2013

[badgerleader]

Doing one of my big catch ups and then will do a big posting of all the cards I made in my recent marathon (I'm still behind though - can anyone make time stand still LOL)

Lilli - your literature card is stunning, love the colour combo and all the embellishing. It is a beautiful quote too.

Wendy - love your owl card, great image plus love those punched borders.

Virginia - great Fathers Day card and love the steampunk card too - great stamp and the cogs are the perfect embellishments for it. Very sophisticated card for the feathered friends challenge. And the stamps you used for your teen card are just perfect.

Ali - I love your ombre male card

Claire - love that rock card - just perfect for a teen

Ruth - really lovely card

Week 17 - use leftovers. I used what I had left in a huge kit I had put together for one of the prompts in Shimelle's Pretty Paper Party. I managed to get 6 cards from the leftovers -

I've not caught up with this challenge for ages!!! I was really good the beginning of last year - must get back into it - but thanks to the We Challenge You - I've done a male card - had to wait until today to post it as its a Fathers Day card! Thanks for the challenge and I'll try and do a few more!

Great cards ladies! Karen well done on the catch up!

I'm quickly uploading a coupe to catch up (still way behind though )Week 19 (texture) & Week 23 (Masculine)

I have some more to upload but have done my 3 for the day (have done the June House challenge too )

[here be dragons]

I especially love that texture card DC8, and the cogs on butterbee's card!

here is my 'young' card - I really struggled with this prompt! But I remembered that my niece will be sixteen this year and she is into fantasy, so that was my inspiration (finally!)

Wow Karen! Amazing catch-up! Well done you, such lovely cards!

Sarah - Lovely to see you back and with such a fab card too - is that a WMS stamp for the main text?

Jayne - fab cards but that moustache one in particular made me smile! hehe

Wendy - I'm sure your niece will love her fantasy card.

[Alibri]

Fab card Wendy - classic, clean and very sophisticated.
Karen - that is being super productive!
Jayne - what wonderful cards - loads of texture and interest.
Hi Sarah - good to see you here.

I have a few cards to upload and write up on my blog - I have had a major push on to complete a Project Life mini-album for my PIL for Father's Day, which I did get done - just by the skin of my teeth though! So I am exhausted and need a massive clean-up before starting anything new.

I will cogitate on what this week's challenge is though, and I have a few things to kick start my next few cards.
