Hero Arts Pairing Up Challenge

Morning folks.....something a little different to share with you all today.....over at the Hero Arts Flickr Group we are having a Pairing Up Challenge and I was partnered with the lovely and very talented Agata.   The idea being that we make 3 cards using Hero Arts fabuous stamps...it took us a while to decide what we wanted to do but for our first card we decided to use....one Background Stamp....One Floral Stamp and One Sentiment Stamp and here is the result.....


and from me


Hero Arts: Large Canvas Stripes Design Block
Hero Arts: Dogwood
Sentiment: Hero Arts Thinking of You
Lace from Simply Create
Pearls from Hobby House
and not forgetting my fetish at the moment.....Kraft Card
This was so much fun but a little scary when you see all the fabulous talent in the group and we now have to decide what we are going to do for our second card....so watch out for the next instalment.
The Budster and I are off to brave the weather on our morning stroll....it's a real batten down the hatches day....gale force winds and the sky doesn't look too happy either....so I think it will be a snuggled up in the cubbyhole kind of a day....I have so much to catch up on.     And just to make life a little bit irritating...what is going on with Mr Blogger...please tell me it's not just me who has been singled out for his "throwing his toys out of the pram" antics.   He really is a pain in the old butt sometimes.
And did I happen to mention I am off for a play date with Mr TH and it's only 161 sleeps....perhaps I did.

  6. Morning Kath. A lovely card again this morning. I do love the Kraft card as well, the stamp detail is beautiful. The weather down here in Devon is dry so far but very dark/grey skies. Snuggle down indoors weather. Hope you and Buddy didn't get blown away on your walk. See you tomorrow. Love Em x

  8. Love both cards - great idea to use 3 stamps! And Mr. Blogger has been a pain for me, too, so you're not alone - maybe we could all give him a collective kick?

  9. who? who are you going to see? and when?
    noooooo, don't think you've mentioned it lol
    fab cards Kath - love how Agata has used her poppy stamp, in fact can I ask you - did she cut it out or is there some clever masking or something going on?
