A last min dash!

Hey!

Just a real quickie this time as life is beyond chaotic at my end! We're still in the process of moving and now work has started for me (first day of school went fine - well with no students it's pretty much bound to LOL!) along with visiting relations for various occasions it's just manic!

Anyways enough excuses! I have another card for the current and very nearly ending Raspberry Suites Color Challenge!Although these colours screamed autumn to me, I also though they'd look great for a masculine card. As one was required for Chris' brother last weekend, I got busy!I'm definitely happier with this entry for the challenge than my earlier attempt! Apologies for the poor pic, still using Chris' camera and still not getting the gist of it! LOL!

The scalloped border was created by cutting a strip of dp and placing my circle nestability in the centre, drawing a faint line two little squares high and repeating. I really need to get the border punch for this but for now, this will do!

Card Recipe
All PTI Unless Stated
Stamps: Star Prints
Ink: Dark Chocolate
Card: Kraft/Summer Sunrise Bitty Box Basics
Other: Cuttlebug, Square Nestability, Dark Chocolate Twill Ribbon, Rustic Wood Button, Rustic Twine

I think Phil (Chris' Brother) liked it, although he did place it on the sideboard the wrong way up - it actually looked kinda cool portrait and I didn't have the heart to tell him it was s'posed to be landscape, though Chris promptly told him anyways - brothers eh?!

Well I hope to be in touch at some point soon with some new creations - in the meantime why not check out the A Passion For Papertrey Blog? We've a new challenge and I've uploaded a new card as my example - I'd love it if you could stop by!

As for now, I'm off to down my tea, pack my school bag for tomorrow and attempt to build a flat packed desk - wish me luck, I have a feeling I'll need it! LOL!

Catch ya later!
