I've started........she'll finish

My friend Sue is coming to visit today with the other half of this challenge.........


Selection of card, ribbons, flowers, Craftwork Cards sentiment, Cuttlebug embossing

The challenge is for me to start a card and then hand it over to Sue for her to finish and vice-versa. Our styles are poles apart so the result should be interesting! I don't even know if we work the same way. I tend to get a load of stuff out and plan my cards around that. Sometimes I get sticking and stamping, other times I play around with layouts and colours first. So that's what I've done here.

I had all this card left over from a wedding order I made recently so cut a square card out of pistachio and ran it through the cuttlebug with a floral embossing border down the side. I've left it at that and included matching card, some ends of ribbon, a sentiment (I know Sue doesn't normally use these so not sure how favourably this will go down) and some gorgeous flowers. Sue doesn't have to use all the stuff and can add anything she wants, can't wait to see the result on her blog Stamping Sue Style.

Looking forward to our day stash shopping and of course to getting my started card to finish.
