Hello everyone, its saturday and we back with a new challenge over at the CES Challenge Blog. Thanks to everyone who took part in last weeks challenge. Pop on over to the challenge blog and see if your the lucky winner or made the Top 3.
This weeks theme is "Embossing".
I have used embossed cardstock and have heated embossing powder over the T/Holtz Butterfly Stamp.
This gorgeous WOJ Stamp has been coloured just in Faber Castell Polychromo Pencils & Sansador.
I treated myself to a new set of 120 Pencils. Still need a bit of practice but made a nice change from Copics and I think you will be seeing more cards coloured with these pencils.
Thankyou to everyone who left me some lovely messages. Yesterday we attended our Nans Funeral and it all went as well as can be expected on these occasions. Now were off for a weeks camping. Lots of packing and sorting to do today, so wont be about next week but you can bet I'll be itching to get back to crafting and catching up with you all.
So heres my list of challenges;
Digi Doodles - Anything Goes
2 Sisters Challenge Blog - Anything Goes
Ambers Crafts & Stuff - Vintage
I will try and catch up with some blogs over the weekend but not sure what spare time I will have. Enjoy the Bank Holiday weekend here in the UK and have a good week everyone!
Remember I have candy posted at the top of my blog, for all to enter.

WONDERFUL *_______* i love your card|||||||LOVE AND ALSO THAT ALL GOLD which is very beautiful..nice work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..sorry for my english!! :D hugs
Hi Claire, wow! this is gorgeous! I love your colouring (it's perfect!) and the tones of the pencils with the papers and embellishments are really beautiful. Love the heart with the metal look. I have just bought some Prismacolor Pencils and I think they do take some practice! Just feel that I am starting to get the hang of them with the blending etc. But they are very pretty and give a lovely soft effect.
Hugs Sue xx

Hi Claire,
Fabulous card and I love this Melinda, she is super to colour. Love all the embossing on this card. I recently got the prismacolor pencils and I am loving using them. Much easier to use I think than the copics or promarkers. You will find you get used to them quite quickly.
Have a fab holiday. You deserve a break after what happened.
hugs
Marion
Stunning, love all the gold!!
