Totally Opposites!





2 toltally different cards today, Christmas and Summertime! Can you guess which is which haha!
My 1st card is for Fab's Big Christmas Card Challenge#23, no brads no ribbon and a birdie. I am also entering it in Bah Humbugs Challenge#22, anything goes.
My 2nd card started with Scrappy's Sunday Sketch#26 from Catch the Bug Challenge blog, and I followed the themes from Sentimental Sunday#7, Summertime and Digital Tuesdays#62 colour with chalks. The "english country garden" stamp is from Dovecraft, by designer Kate Knight. The image I used for this card is by Nana Vic, and is a freebie if you sign up at DACC the new digital stampers ning thing(not very good with techno, but I'm trying;) ). Backing papers are by Brenda Pinnock(summertime card) and Anna Griffen(christmas card).
Love as always Gina x x x
