Weddings and Cake



I'm still desperately trying to catch up with myself this week, I don't know what's been happening but I don't really seem to have achieved much at all.
I wanted to enter a couple of other challenges this week and as one of them ends tomorrow and the other one on Monday, I've dropped everything else to get the cards done in time.
The first card is for Ooh La La's challenge of "Romance". I was lucky enough to win the ribbons in last week's challenge (the first time I've ever won anything!) so I thought I'd push my luck and enter this week's challenge LOL. A very simple card, the image is of a vintage wedding and is mounted onto some silver art deco miri card (which the scanner didn't like!) and finished off with a sentiment and some flowers with pink gems as centres. Thinking about it, I made a wedding card for their challenge last week too, I expect they now think that's all I do!
My second challenge card is for Funky Fairy's theme of "Glorious Food" and is another very simple card featuring the most delicious looking cake (Strawberries and cream mmmmm!) mounted onto deep red card and silver miri card and finished with a sentiment and a little flower with a gem flower as it's centre.
If I can catch up with all the other things I'm in the middle of at the moment, I'll try and get some more challenges entered.
